Music Review: Ashanti "Foolish"

Ashanti

Foolish
Album: Ashanti
Year: 2002

Ashanti rather than be in an unhealthy relationship than alone in the stock pop of "Foolish."

The keyboard sample of the 1983 DeBarge song "Stay With Me" opens the single, setting a familiar tone. Producer Irv Gotti whispers the name of the record company, "Murder, Inc." and "Ashanti" to let listeners know that they aren't listening to Notorious B.I.G.'s "One More Chance (Remix)."

In the chorus, Ashanti explains that the she misses being with her boyfriend. However, when she is hanging out with him, he insults her. It wounds her. Even though she can longer stand being around him, she still returns to him.
