Mrs. Jennifer #JLO is known for her contribution to world film culture and is considered a cultural heritage of the USA, America, and Europe, a master of dance, a film actor, a business-woman, and a famous performer of hit music. She is completely independent, she has no need for advice and she has no need to ask others for anything. This is one example of what a great person can achieve, but it is not the limit. Great and talented people make new discoveries about themselves throughout their lives. If they are not songwriters, they are artists or film directors. If not writers, they are inventors. If not politicians or lawyers, they are industrialists and technologists. It is so pleasant to be around such people that you never want to leave. Great people seems like charging other people with new inspiration and dreams to realize.

[@UnreleasedUnderratedRnBgrooves]

People are gonna drop criticism on J.Lo, but DO NOT act like you weren't bumping this in the summer of 2001 or when she performed this live for the troops in late '01/early '02 with Ja. This woman was in one of her 2 primes during this era and was breaking record after record. And to shut up the naysayers, if you actually went out and bought the "J.Lo" (2001) sophomore CD you would be greeted with a thing called liner notes and credits in the album's booklet to be properly informed that Ashanti AND Christina Milian were both respectively credited for their contributions. C'mon y'all. Read! It's not that hard...

[@jrpalomino4065]

When this first came out i remember thinking, " damn all these females have the same voice"....cut to 15 years later and we found out its because it was ALL ashanti lmao. It really was literally one voice and one sound. To maks it worse they killed ashantis career and she was the best one of them all (and one of the only ones who could write and sing!)

[@dallascowgirl105]
