Personally, thats too much to spend for any occasion even though I love Ashanti and her beautiful voice! Jah's another story. All of you haters need to get a life! For the fool that keeps saying "use proper english" you just mad cause you probably in college and your a-- still can't understand what they're saying! So, for all you grammer freaks fill in the blanks and enjoy your college degrees because, yall ain't gonna be making half as much as Ashanti or Jah!!! HA, HA, HA

Somebody is seriously playing a joke. watching them is like watching a train wreck. To the people that say we're "haters", how about you go back to grade school and learn some correct grammar before you make a fool of yourself. As far as Ja Rule, I just wanna rip that frog out of his throat and tell him he's not Tupac. As for Ashanti, she couldn't hold a note if she was pressing the key on a piano. You see where their careers went. Need I say more? whatever idiot would spend the 1/2 million to get them must be retarded......or tone deaf.

"4. yall r hatin on ashnti big time. yall just mad cuz shes yung beautiful n rich she gettin dat money where urs @? u sittin on the internet worried about wat shes doin trashin her name but she doesnt even kno yall exist. LOL its so sad but have a nice life ashanti will soon b doin big thangs. album comin out december 4th look out 4 that (not U haters) but ashanti's real fans"

Proper English would be nice!

"8. Ja needs ever dime he can get, the brother is broke as hell. He reportidly, has even had to pawn off some of his bling to keep up his image. And now Ashanti can pay for a fintess trainer to help her lose that roll. And she might want to wax her roll before she exposes it again in a music video, like Happy. Whoa just watch the video and look at her Happy trail. And the mustash should go too."

again, proper English please!

"10. man yall need to stop wit yo shyt....ahsanti is makin her dought n so is ja rulle
n i wouldn't pay 500,00 bucks to c dem it don't even cost dat much they prolly jus song like they whole album but for real yall need to stop drinken dat haterade n drink yo azz sum gatorade u feelz me"

16 errors in this section above. did you ever pass an English class, becasue you tired, not because the teacher felt sorry for you?

Numbers: 4, 8, 10, and anyone who types like them needs to go to a “proper” school and pay attention. Nobody in the “Real” world will ever take you seriously. Proper English please! (Im pretty sure there are more on the other pages but I couldn't bear to look to see anymore atrocities against the English language.

11. You guys r haters if u don't dig Ashanti and Ja'

ever hear of "freedom of speech"? Some people don't like Rap, or Hip-Hop, or Pop. As long as they are not using derogatory terms towards them, or another sort of discrimination, then it is not any sort of hateful act.

you all need to type proper English, or don't type at all.
