Amazon.co.uk Review IChapter II/I, the second album by 2002 hip-pop debutante Ashanti, is aimed squarely at the mainstream portion of her audience. She made her name with radio-ready duets featuring Ja Rule and Fat Joe, but IChapter II/I goes light on the rap, opting for only a small handful of cameos by co-producer Chink Santana. The mostly mid-tempo tracks are pleasant, but much of the album feels like an unfinished structure that'll only be fully built when the songs are remixed for the airwaves. Still, with the star's assured (and nicely undersold) vocals front and centre, it amounts to a breath of fresh air from production company Murder Inc. Note: "Breakup 2 Makeup" once more updates the Chaka Khan/Mary J Blige classic "Sweet Thing." I--Rickey Wright/I

She is lovely September 11, 2003 Kae-Toya Cherise Lee (Leicester,England) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This album is a step up from her last one as her sophmore album she has indeed shown her maturity.She goes from being heartbroken to empowering herself and asking questions. Then she delivers the solution to the problem breakup 2 makeup.Unlike other artists she doesn't dwell on being a child for too long and appreciates being a young woman.
Keep pressin on Ashanti!!!! September 25, 2003 Nicole (USA, Georgia) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I must admit Ashanti gets on my nerves with her irritating prissy ways, but I still buy and listen to her music anyways. I have both of her albums and I think that both of them are hot. I think "Chapter II" is definitely a step-up from the first album. She can sing and I must give her props for that. She writes all her own music, so of course it's going to be unique. She's not Mary J. or Whitney, but she is very talented. So, Haters please quit hating on her singing abilities b/c that's something that she can do.
Chapter II July 28, 2003 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
WOW! Sums up the whole album actually! She has moved on from the features with rappers which were more the focus of the first album and has completed a brilliant show of her work! The tracks are varied with the odd rapping in it which is quite a nice variety. There are a few skits on the album which at first I wondered about, but they provide a nice respite. The first track(after the intro) is in my opinion the worst, but i prefer the singing to the rapping, it drags on a little too much. My other least favorite would have to be ohh Ahh, just because (again) there isnt nearly as much singing and it is all a but samey! Rock Wit You, has made it, having been the song on the album which got the most recognition as a single, but there are others which come close to it standard. Breakup to makeup sounds very similar to a remix, but i prefer the remix just because its a bit more upbeat. I found lovin is a nice upbeat, happy tune a similar content to many many songs but the backing makes it seem a very positive song. Personally, I like carry On and rain on me, being my favorites. The content of the songs mainly are love, but there is some other stuff thrown in there. The RnB element comes accross very strongly in this CD and although it is all very similar standard and can be a similar sound, thats more than fine because its such a high standard! Definately worth the 11.99 or less!!
ASHANTI August 29, 2003 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
i love all ashanti's songs! and i'm a big fan of herspi think she's really talented. this album shows a lot of attitude and there are really good songs. Some of the songs are accompanied by other singers, so there are quite a few duets.brThe songs are really easy to dance to and most of them are fast upbeat hiphop, and shows her talent really well. i find this a GREAT album and i reccommend it to anyone of her fans!
A Good Second Effort From Murder Inc.'s Princess July 1, 2003 This album is a good effort from Ashanti, it manages to achieve the outstanding of matching up to the standard which was set on her debut self titled album. Her voice is incredible, and she has so much talent, which is evident in both her records. My personal favourites include the first single "Rock Wit U (Awww Baby)", "Sweet Baby", "U Say, I Say ft. Gunnz", "Shany's World ft. Chink Santana" "I Found Lovin'" *Bonus Track* "I Know" also stands out. I also like the "Intro/Medley" the "Outro ft. Chink Santana". It is good to see that like her debut title, Ashanti has contributed to the writing of many of the songs. The album undoubtedly equals Beyoncé's debut effort "Dangerously In Love" In my opinion this record has one up on it. I have found the more I listen to this album the more I like it. Another positive thing about this album is that there is no trace of Ja Rule on it anywhere. Overall It's a grand effort from Murder Inc.s own Princess of R'n'B, and I eagerly await her next record.
