[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

These replies let me know who never payed attention to R&B music and just lilstened to it at parties or on MTV/BET top 10 lists

Keyshia gonna wash Ashanti.

Keyshia has timeless songs in her catalogue. Ashanti had a nice lil run in the early 2000's but I dont think she ever put out a timeless joint that females can recite word-for-word

7 of the 1st 10 songs on keyshia’s 1st album can be put in a verses, and she might have more on her 2nd.

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

Keyshia has the better album cuts , true r&b and all the technical stuff

Yeah it's weird. I fukk with both artists for the most part but I really have no interest in seeing them matched up. There is no rub there to make it an compelling verzus.

written by J. lo with background vocals from ashanti

The original version of "I'm Real" was written by Jennifer Lopez, Troy Oliver, Cory Rooney and Leshan David Lewis, with production being handled by Oliver and Rooney.[9] Lyrically, the singer offers voluptuous good times as long as her lover "don't ask me where I've been." While she brags that she's made him fall in love, a male voice chants, "She's a bad, bad bytch."[10] Oliver developed the song's concept while Lewis suggested the use of a loop from the song "Firecracker" (1978) by Japanese band Yellow Magic Orchestra from their self-titled album. After hearing the instrumental track, Lopez and Rooney wrote "I'm Real", which she said "was the first time I ever wrote a melody. I just love the hook of the song. I wrote it, so it’s kind of personal."[8] Lopez recorded the song that day, and called in her boyfriend at the time Sean Combs to record the lyric, "She's a bad, bad bytch." Rooney revealed: "She wrote that and she had him stop what he was doing, leave his studio, come across town and just go in the vocal booth and say that one part. Then she said, 'OK, now you can leave.'"[8]

• Ashanti Douglas – background vocals
• Jay Goin – engineering assistance
• Rick James – composition
• Jennifer Lopez – composition, lead vocals
• Irv Gotti – composition, production, mixing

She did write Ain't It Funny (Remix)

Rooney explained: "We had changed the sound of Jennifer Lopez's boobs [with "I'm Real"] and we didn't have anything else on the [J.Lo] album we could release as a single. We had to do another remix to keep the momentum going."[5] Then-upcoming artist Ashanti dropped by Irv Gotti's studio in New York. She recalled: "Everyone was there and Ja [Rule] was on the floor playing video games, and they had the beat playing in the background. Chris Gotti, Irv Gotti's brother, said 'Ja's supposed to be writing this record for J-Lo, but it doesn't look like he's going to be doing anything tonight. Why don't you go in there and see what's happening?' So that's exactly what I did." Ashanti wrote two verses and recorded a demo for the new version of "Ain't It Funny" for Lopez.[5] Gotti and 7 flew out to Los Angeles on September 10, 2001 to record the song with Lopez. The song was due to be recorded the following day, but was postponed due to the September 11 attacks.[5] When work resumed on the song, Gotti called Ashanti from Los Angeles asking her to write another verse for the song. She recalled: "I had to write it over the phone and two-way Irv the lyrics."[5]

Keyshia has the better album cuts and yall forgetting she got a couple missy/kanye songs she can pull from too.

Ashanti has like 7-8 instant wins though with the ja rule collabs. And technically she can pull from the j.lo songs that she wrote.

But a full out 20?? I'm going with Keyshia. Especially if they singing live. (My sister was a full blown Keyshia stan so i probably know her shyt better then most. She gonna have that verzuz rocking with all these ratchet bytches out now n days lol)


But for real fukk this matchup. Cause NO ONE is seeing Ciara at all. She will body all these bytches not named Beyonce/Rihanna/Mariah.

If Keyshia is playing this shyt smart. On some of the later ja rule collabs. She can sneak a win in there if she plays this against shyt like Mesmerize Happy or Wonderful




But shyt like Always on time/Down 4 U/Down Ass bytch??? Yea those are instant wins lol.

 

[~*--------(Big Boom)]

this the hardest Ashanti song

 

[Yehuda]

Keyshia is the better vocalist imo but I understand Ashanti was the bigger more mainstream artist.

 

[Ironman]

I think this match will be better than people think and both have those" I forgot about this one" type music. Long as they have decent chemistry this should be fun​
