Ashanti

It was her mother s strong faith in her daughter s talent that led Ashanti Douglas down a hard and often frustrating road to finally find success as a singer.

With the support of her driven mother, Ashanti made the decision to try to make the big time. Several setbacks almost made the young entertainer give up her dream forever. But Ashanti wasn t raised to be a quitter.

Now with several albums under her belt and a slew of music awards, Ashanti is thankful her family taught her never to give up on her dreams.
