While promoting her new album Braveheart, Ashanti talked to The Grio about music and how she was caught in between one of hip-hop's biggest beefs of the 2000's.
Ashanti says that she was guilty by association an easy target within the company of the G-Unit and Murder Inc. spectacle.
"You have the term 'guilty by association' and it's funny because I've had plenty of conversations with 'thugs' [laughs] and plenty of dudes and even with Fif, it was never aimed at [me]. [50 said 'It's just your crew.'] I caught stray bullets. ...
She also mentions that the beef was way deeper than music.
"People have to understand it wasn't just 50 and G-Unit and Murder Inc.. It was 50 and G-Unit, Murder Inc., the federal indictment, going to court. And then it was crazy because it was Irv and Ja going through issues, but it would be my picture on the cover of the [New York] Post. I didn't have anything to do with that."
The beautiful singer hasn't spoken to 50 Cent recently but says that the two did put the past behind them when Nelly asked 50 to apologize to the singer.
