It’s unclear what year, but IG says he was watching an NBA game when he saw the two artists go out and perform together – which left him stunned at the time, as he was apparently romantically linked to her too around the same time. Apparently he still has some sour grapes… and about his complicated relationship with Ashanti in general.
More on that in a bit… But first, fast forward to Friday Night – where Nellie, Jay’s ruleAnd the what $hAshanti night john Others were fronting the “My 2000s Playlist” party in Auckland.
