I'm surprised Ashanti could breathe at all with all of that water. The creative director did too much. The song is called Rain on Me, not Tornado On Me.

#TeamAshanti Since 2002-2014 Still A big Fan!!! 2002-2005 she was young she still needed much work but she still delivered and sold out shows and broke billboards Records say what y'all want but she gots it..... 2014 Brave heart album if ya haven't got it get it, the album is hot... Ashanti is independent now doing it everything herself

I didn’t even feel like this was a song that required a dance routine/choreography. We all know Ashanti can sing her ass off but I don’t think they should’ve had her moving all around especially to a song that really requires vocal technique like this one and that’s why she sounded so off key. They coulda still had the stage like a storm but just had her in a beautiful dress singing at a mic stand.

shes not even bad and plus peoples vocal cords get exhausted sometimes and cause them to not perform to their fullest potential. it doesn't mean she's a bad singer at all. she's had a lot of great performances in the past and after this one. just because she didn't do her best doesn't mean that she sucks. mad judgemental and people don't even know their facts. the best performers even have mediocre performances sometimes. it just happens. i'd like to see someone else try n sing this song good.

The song creeps me out now that I know she was talking about Irv the whole time. The creepy laugh in the beginning was him 😳. Pretty sure he facilitated that ridiculous amount of “rain” that fell in her face. The end says stop domestic violence. Irv was probably abusive towards her seeing as though his very disturbing behavior towards her now. I like Ashanti though awesome production and writing.
