CD Description
'Concrete Rose' is the third album from American R&B star Ashanti. Featuring guest production from 7 Aurelius and appearances from labelmates Ja Rule and Lloyd, the album sees Ashanti stick with the slick mix of R&B and hip hop that gave her the US top slot on the Billboard 200 chart with 2003's 'Chapter II'.

Customer Reviews

Yet another disappointment from Ashanti
Although there are some crackers on this album (such as Only U and Every 'Lil Thing), the album lacks what her last 2 albums lacked: intrigue. Most tracks are identical to each other and others are the worst lyrically-written songs ever. If you buy the album solely on the strength of Only U (like me), then you may be disappointed. Without a doubt, Ashanti is a fantastic singer but I don't think she'll ever be able to produce an above-average album if she continues with the endless slushy ballads and useless skits.

How many good tracks? 7 out of 18

Best track: Every 'Lil Thing
Worst track: All skits

Concrete S**T
This is Concrete S**t, and i am an ashanti fan. Her first album is her best: foolish, down 4u, happy, baby... god what is this girl thinkin ´bout? This ain´t R&B/HipHop. Girl Go Get other producers...keep writing and tryin and dont you ever listen to those haters!
And she is releasing a remix album in less a month... I ain´t gonna buy it, cos the only worthy song is Rain On Me Remix Feat. La Baltimore and Ja.
This girl is cool, but the album...

5. Freedom (9/10) I Love This Ballad!
