Ashanti is being called out by the late Irv Gotti‘s brother, who feels the singer has downplayed what Irv and Murder Inc. did for her career.
In recent years, Ashanti looked back at her time on the label (usually in response to public comments from Gotti), and accusedthe executive of “manipulation” during her early career.
In a new interview on the Let’s Keep it 100 Podcast, Chris Gotti called the singer out for what he says is disparaging what Irv did for her and for denying that she dated him.
“She says they wasn’t in a relationship. They was in a relationship. I was they therapist,” he said. “Like come on now, don’t do that. But at the end of the day that’s what makes what went on with them so real.”
He then praised Ashanti for always speaking calmly highly of Irv, noting that there aren’t many people who would say nice things about their ex. He also admitted that Irv would go too far when talking about her, but defended the fact he only spoke on the topics because he was asked and he’s a “straight shooter.”
Then he continued: “For her to act like it ain’t Murder Inc. that made her is fukking bullshyt or Irv made her. She had three deals before him. Like, something with y’all chemistry worked out! Respect it! That’s all. Not saying you have to talk about the n-gga, but respect the magic that was made. That’s all I said.
“I’m not gonna let no one talk about my brother gonna have a problem, simple and plain. Especially someone who he made their career. Like, I was there. He made you sing records the way you sang them cause you would’ve never sang it that way if it was up to you.”
