The public has already crowned Omarion as the "unbothered" king, but he may have met his match. Ashanti has been the talk of Hip Hop for weeks following Irv Gotti and Ja Rule's appearance on Drink champs. Gotti rehashed his prior romance with the Murder Inc singer, leaving many to speculate about whether or not he was truly over the relationship.

Meanwhile, Ashanti has continued to take to stages across the globe as she pushes her career forward. This year marks the 20th anniversary of her eponymous debut studio album, and she caught up with CBS Mornings for a walk down memory lane.
She discussed having full support from her parents who encouraged whatever career path she wanted to take. Even with her loved ones in her corner, Ashanti said she faced doubt, like any other creative.
