As Nelly approached the sleek and stylish vehicle, the unmistakable melody of his iconic track “Ride Wit Me” played in the background, setting the mood for the incredible reveal. The surprise was orchestrated to perfection, and Nelly’s reaction said it all – it was a gift that truly touched his heart. The car, in all its glory, was not just a mode of transportation but a symbol of Ashanti’s affection and appreciation for him. The fact that “Ride Wit Me” was playing in the background added an extra layer of significance, as it was a musical journey back to some of the best moments they’ve shared together.

Nelly and Ashanti’s bond has been through its share of highs and lows, but this heartfelt gesture spoke volumes about the enduring connection between the two artists. In a world often characterized by glitz and glamour, this simple “Thank You” from Nelly to Ashanti was a reminder that sometimes, the most meaningful gifts are the ones that come from the heart.

October 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

2023 has been a year full of chaos and turmoil in the music industry and beyond. One thing keeping people smiling throughout it all is watching Nelly and Ashanti rediscover their love for each other. The pair have been spending plenty of their free time together in recent months, whether on stage bumping and grinding or performing salacious songs for each other. On Monday (October 30), a video of the New Yorker and her man in Atlanta for One Music Festival began circulating on blogs, as she allowed the NSFW lyrics from Sexyy Red’s “Pound Town” to fill Nelly in on her bedroom fantasies.

“I’m tryna get my coochie scratched,” the viral song blasts, “I’m tryna get my coochie stretched,” the next bar continues as Ashanti laughs. At this point, the fashionista looks her other half directly in his eyes while agreeing. The “Hot In Herre” hitmaker is always grinning from ear to ear whenever he’s in his lover’s company. However, this bold confession had him laughing and cheesing harder than we’ve ever seen Nelly smile.

As cuffing season continues, more single social media users are convincing themselves that spinning the block might be worth it after all. “These two make me think me & my ex might still have a chance ,” one IG user wrote in @theneighborhoodtalk’s comments. “Nelly ain’t stopped smiling since he got that old thing back,” another chimed in, once again advocating for exploring past options instead of seeking out new ones.

Sexyy Red isn’t the only artist we’ve seen Nelly and Ashanti showing love to in their recent videos. While celebrating the R&B diva’s birthday earlier this month, she loved every minute of her man serenading her with Jodeci’s “Freek’N You.” Check out that laughter-filled video at the link below, and tap back in later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

One celebrity birthday is already a lot, but two of them under the same roof means that fans have to really test their vocal chops when they sing their congratulations. Moreover, this just happened at Usher’s recent Las Vegas show on Saturday (October 14), which called for a special occasion with a fellow R&B superstar of his.

“Yeah, we cool again,” Nelly confirmed in a recent interview, smiling and getting red in the face as he talked about Ashanti. “I think it surprised both of us, though. It wasn’t anything that was like, I don’t think, planned. We both was pretty much doing what we do. Sometimes being separate allows you to understand one another more. You can be like, ‘Yo, let me see exactly, maybe, what they see.’ We all can be defensive, sometimes, in our own relationships. And we know we wrong but we going to stand on it. But we all a victim to that. Before, I felt like both of us are doing what we’re doing career-wise. When you got so many people in the middle of it, it could be tough.”

Meanwhile this is what his boo had to say about this. “We’re in a great space, everything is positive, we’re having a lot of fun,” she told PEOPLE on the MTV VMAs red carpet back in September. In fact, she also suggested they might collab on new music soon, which is another exciting possibility. For more news and the latest updates on Nelly and Ashanti, stay logged into HNHH.

September 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Ashanti is a name we’ve been reporting on consistently throughout 2023. Unlike her contemporaries, she’s stayed almost entirely stayed out of drama. Instead, the performer has been pouring her energy into aging gracefully, travelling around the world, and rekindling her romance with Nelly. The pair first sparked a relationship decades ago and ultimately found their way back into each other’s lives after taking many years apart to grow and mature as individuals. In the summer, the “Hot In Herre” hitmaker confirmed that he and Ashanti were both surprised to get back together. Still, the near-constant smiles on their faces tell us they couldn’t be happier to be reunited.

Since reconnecting, we’ve seen Nelly and his other half grace the stage together on several occasions. Earlier this week, however, Ashanti was giving a live performance of her own when someone backstage captured a video of her bodacious behind. Also unlike many of her contemporaries, the New York native seems to have stayed true to her natural figure over the years, rather than relying on BBLs or tummy tucks to keep her snatched.
