Ja Rule Says Ashanti Petition Kind Of Hurt Him

While Ashanti didn’t talk to the press at the 8th Annual Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards on Saturday, she did make sure she’d give an exclusive to Access Hollywood’s Shaun Robinson. “It’s unfortunate,” she admitted. “I feel it is a little bit unnecessary, but everyone has a right to their opinion and I am going to keep on striving,” Her Murder Inc. labelmate Ja Rule added, “It kind of hurt me to hear all the negativity, but, whatever, you know that’s the name of the business.”
