She released her self-titled debut album in the same year, which received a Grammy, two American Music Awards, and eight Billboard Music Awards.

Ashanti went on to write and feature on Jennifer Lopez’s number one hit, “Ain’t It Funny (Murder Remix)” five more studio albums, including another number one Chapter II, starred in several movies and television shows, including main characters in John Tucker Must Die (2006) and Army Wives (2013).
