Irv Finally Lets Ashanti Go

Well since the disappearnce of the Murder Inc. family courtesy of Mr. Bully aka 50 Cent himself, no artist in Murder Inc. could deliver. People are still asking what happened to Ja Rule after the much brutal beef against 50 Cent, he hasn't rapped sense (or are we really going to call what he did rapping "its murddddddddaaaaa"). Ashanti was the only credible, this is by a long shot artist left on the label. And it's not people dislike Ashanti or her music but it's with who she is associated that wasn't helping her. Irv Gotti has recently reported that he has dropped Ashanti off the label (I doubt that she's really upset about that). This is what he had to say:

"The relationship has run its course. The chemistry of what's needed — we're in two totally different places. You're talking to somebody that took her and shaped and molded her and put her out there for the world, and it blew up. We [hold the record] for the [fastest] selling debut by a female R&B artist — 503 [thousand]. We did it! My views and philosophies and her views and philosophies are not meeting up."

I personally believe for her to be successful, it took the energy ... when you seen her, it was 30 n---as around her, and she's the princess so nice and pretty walking through. The music was great, but it was the energy that was created. It wasn't just her standing there and singing a song….

I don't think she can win. She needs some guidance with that. But she's not thinking like that. Really, I couldn't tell you what she's thinking. So that relationship has run its course and honestly, I'm gonna just drop her."

Irv I think you did this girl a favor, she is not mad at you.
