R&B singer Ashanti has reunited in the studio with rapper Ja Rule for the first time in almost a decade.
The Baby star fell out with her Murder Inc. Records labelmate in the mid-2000s and left the label in 2009, but she recently admitted she was eager to reunite with Ja Rule following his release from prison on tax and weapons charges in May.
Ashanti’s wish came true over the weekend when she shared a photo of the old collaborators back together via her Instagram.com account. The accompanying caption read:
“Uhh ohhhhh me & my bro in the lizzaaaabbbbb!!!!!!! We haven’t seen each other in 4ever!!! & it feels great!!!”
In June of this year, Ashanti spoke to VladTV about Ja and explained, “He’s super excited about the music…Hopefully, we get it all popping. It’s no denying our chemistry.”
Ashanti rose to fame in 2001 when she featured on Ja Rule’s hit single ‘Always on Time’. They also scored chart success in 2002 with Fat Joe on ‘What’s Luv?’ and released their last collaboration, ‘Wonderful’, in 2004.
