YamGram: The Hottest Pics From Ashanti’s Month-Long Birthday Vacay In Paradise
Compilation of the hottest photos from R&B star Ashanti month-long vacation in paradise where she celebrated her 40th birthday …

WOO LAWD!
Our fave thigh meat Goddess Ashanti loves her an extended vacay in paradise where she recently wrapped up a month-long 40th birthday celebration that blessed us with an endless array of ELITE thirst traps in the sun.
For years, she’s been asked how she’s been able to stay so fine over the years and recently spilled some of her priceless secrets.
“It’s a combination of eating right, trying to eat well and getting to the gym whenever I can,” she revealed to Hip Hollywood.
I have two trainers, one on the west coast and one on the east coast, and trying to stay away from fried food.”
The “Foolish” singer dropped a few more gems in an interview with 11 Alive’s Francesa Ammeker.
“Oh my gosh, my daily diet?” I’m on a juice cleanse right now! It’s all plant-based, beyond burgers, asparagus, veggies, stuff like that. And I try to get in my crunches and jump rope in.”
As far as new music goes, you can expect her collab with one of the hottest producers in music sooner than later.
“I’m very excited to be releasing more music, she told Grammy.com. I think just for me, I’m at a point where I want to try different things. I love Afrobeats, I love reggae music, I love soca music. And as an artist, you want to fulfill your creative energy, you know? But I’m definitely getting back to my R&B roots. [Laughs.]
I’m very, very excited about the new EP, I’m working on it with Metro Boomin. We have some amazing records I’m very, very excited about it. Some amazing other producers and some writers and I’m just really excited about the new sound. You know, there are a couple of things that I’m talking about that I’ve never talked about before. And some people are going to be like, “Oh my gosh, did she say that?” I’m excited about it.”
Where would you go on your month-long vacay? Would you hire a photographer to follow you around? Tell us in comments and peep the hottest pics from her month-long vacay on the flip.

Sarantos has released his new single, “LOOKing UP (at the world).” The Chicago-based artist has struggled with chronic back pain since his bout with COVID.
I did everything I could and still had nonstop debilitating pain. It was only better when I laid down flat. All I could do was look up at the world as life passed me by…”— Sarantos

350K+ Spotify Streaming Christian Artist Releases New EP On Good Friday

On Friday, April 15th, experimental Christian artist, HeIsTheArtist releases his 6-song EP, “The Faded Outro.” The EP features gospel, lo-fi and jazz mixes.
“Always remember where your soul came from, even with Heaven being faded into the background of our world”— HeIsTheArtist
In the past two years, Leemann Bassey aka HeIstheArtist has been racking up the accolades. With more than 350K Spotify streams, 7 Top 40 international iTunes charting hits (including three #1s!) across a variety of genres from Christian to jazz to electronic, and nominations in the Prayze Gospel Awards, the experimental musician has developed into one of music’s most unique and interesting new artists. On the heels of his current airplay chart hit, featuring a vocal intro from Grammy Winner, Joel Kibble (Take 6), HITA is releasing a 6-song EP on Good Friday, April 15th, 2022.
According to HeIsTheArtist, “The Faded Outro: The Crucifixion Of a Broken Heart’ is a 6 track EP that eludes to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The EP starts off with a Lo-Fi instrumental titled ‘Cloudy Sunday Morning,’ to set a somber tone. Then, comes my smooth jazz cover of the standard ‘Summertime’ to foreshadow the dark days ahead for Jesus, but at the same time providing reassurance that everything would be alright after his death. The EP then moves onto my #1 ITunes UK gospel cover of ‘I Want You Around’ by Snoh Aalegra, followed by the original version of my current single, ‘Boom (Remastered).” Both songs are meant to reassure the listeners of my belief in Jesus Christ as the Messiah. The last two tracks are my original Lo-Fi song ‘Colored’ and an original instrumental Lo-Fi track ‘The Faded Outro’. Both tracks are a reminder to remember that Jesus died on the cross to set our souls free and to always remember where your soul came from, even with heaven being faded into the background of our world.”
ABOUT HEISTHEARTIST: Hailing from Central Islip, NY and formerly signed under his birth name, LeeMann Bassey recorded and released secular r&b and dance music for Bentley Records. Inspired to release Christian music after hearing a sermon by Bishop TD Jakes, HeIsTheArtist cites influences including Prince, Chaka Khan, Sade, Maxwell, and D’Angelo.
