Personal Information

Ashanti Shequoiya Douglas is an American singer and actress.

She was first discovered as a teenager and later signed to Murder Inc. Records in 2002.

That year she was featured on Fat Joe’s What’s Luv? and Ja Rule’s Always on Time, both of which became two of the biggest hit songs of 2002.

She became the first female artist to occupy the top two positions on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart simultaneously with Foolish and What’s Luv? at numbers one and two, respectively.

Ashanti Douglas was born on 13 October 1980 in Glen Cove, New York. Her mother, Tina Douglas, is African-American and a former dance teacher, and her father, Ken-Kaide Thomas Douglas, is also African-American and a former singer.

She is the oldest of her parents’ children.

Ashanti’s younger sister is Kenashia Shia Douglas.

Ashanti’s mother named her after the Ashanti Empire in Ghana; in this nation, women had power and influence, and Tina wanted Ashanti to follow that model.

Her grandfather, James, was a civil rights activist who was associated with Martin Luther King Jr. in the 1960s.

Ashanti’s mother discovered her full singing potential when she overheard Ashanti singing Mary J. Blige’s Reminisce at age 12. While attending high school, she began to write songs.

As a teenager, she performed in a local talent show and at several small festivals.

She got her first taste of acting as a child extra in Spike Lee’s Malcolm X (1992) and in Ted Demme’s Who’s the Man? She also had a couple of minor appearances in music videos, such as KRS-One’s MC’s Act Like They Don’t Know as well as 8-Off’s Ghetto Girl.

Ashanti struggled to find success as a singer after being courted by several record labels, including Bad Boy and Jive.

Despite this, she continued to perform in and around New York and began hanging out at the Murder Inc. recording studio, hoping for a big break.

In 2002, Ashanti released her eponymous debut album, which sold over 505,000 copies throughout the U.S. in its first week of release.

The album earned her many awards, including eight Billboard Music Awards, two American Music Awards, and a Grammy Award in 2003 for Best Contemporary R&B Album.

The album has since been certified triple platinum in the United States and sold six million copies worldwide by the end of 2003.

The lead single for the album, Foolish was a critical and commercial success; it reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100.

With Foolish, she became the second artist to have their first three chart entries in the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100 simultaneously.

Ashanti wrote and sang for Jennifer Lopez’s Ain’t It Funny, which also reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100.

In 2003, Ashanti released her second album, Chapter II, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, with first-week sales of 326,000 copies in the U.S. The album went platinum, selling over 1.5 million copies in the U.S. since its release.

The album’s singles, Rock wit U and Rain on Me, were both commercial successes, peaking at number two and number seven on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, respectively.

Chapter II was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album, and Rock wit U and Rain on Me were each nominated in the categories of Best R&B Song and Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.

In November 2003, Ashanti released a Christmas album titled Ashanti’s Christmas, which was a modest commercial success.

The first single, Only U, reached number thirteen on the Billboard Hot 100 and became her biggest hit in the United Kingdom, peaking at number two.

A second single, the ballad Don’t Let Them, garnered little chart success after Def Jam refused to fund a music video due to Irv Gotti’s legal troubles during his money laundering trial.
