Ashanti is trending on Twitter again because of Irv Gotti!
In the latest episode of ‘The Murder Inc. Story’ Irv Gotti is facing a lot of backlash after detailing an intimate moment between himself and the R&B queen.
He said:
“Ashanti’s coming to the studio every day and our friendship and bond is naturally growing. She used to wear these Juicy sweats and her ass was looking fat. Her ass was looking great,” he said with a laugh. “So one day, I was like, ‘I’ll take you home.’ She said, ‘Bet. Cool.’ Walk her to her front door of her crib. She turns to say goodbye and I just kissed her and grabbed her ass. It was like, ‘What took you so long?'”
This comes after the explosive episode he had on Drink Champs where he gave his reaction to the R&B singer’s relationship with Nelly.
Fans quickly pointed out the 10-year age gap between Ashanti and Irv many saying that his behavior is predatory since at the time, Ashanti was 19 and he was 30.
Read and watch below:
Irv is over a 10+ years older than Ashanti. We need to stop acting like it's okay for a 30+ y/o producer/label owner to get involved w/ a 19 y/o singer trying to break into the biz. The power dynamics are not even CLOSE to be equal, & that's before we even talk about Irv's wife https://t.co/ru4B0bOrwE

I’LL SAY IT: Ashanti was like 20 & Irv Gotti was 10 years older, in control of her career with power dynamics; it’s giving he preyed on her.
It’s creepy & some would say sexual assault, cause no consent. What if she felt she had to be with him for her career? #MurderIncStoryBET

I completely understand why Ashanti didn’t want to be apart of this. They’re basically blaming her for the breakup of Murder Inc when the reality is Irv’s high ass couldn’t stay focused on the business #MurderIncStoryBET

Irv Gotti has a really fascinating career arc and story and had a real chance to redeem the Murder Inc legacy and he’s choosing to ruin it all by being a dweeb about Ashanti

Irv Gotti providing the blueprint on how big record execs casually take advantage of their position with younger artists. Execs in other fields routinely get fired for the shit Irv was doing with Ashanti
