Product Description

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'.

2.0 out of 5 stars Yet another disappointment from Ashanti, 23 Jan 2005

By	L. Omelasz "brekkie_tiffs" (Dundee, UK) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

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

1.0 out of 5 stars Concrete S**T, 16 Nov 2005

By	rafa (new york, NY USA) - See all my reviews

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...

5.0 out of 5 stars Ashanti's Best Album "CONCRETE ROSE", 8 May 2005

By	"davebanger1000" - See all my reviews

I Only Bought This 3 Weeks Ago And I Am Impressed!!

1. Only U (10/10) A Great Catchy Breathtaking Song!
2. Touch My Body (10/10) Why Is This A Bonus Track? It's Way Too Good To Be A Bonus Track
3. Turn It Up (9/10) Very Very Good!
4. Focus (9/10) Again, It's Very Very Good!
5. Freedom (9/10) I Love This Ballad!
