Seems like you can’t walk around New York City during the summer without running into a free concert in a park. Today I did just that. I was shopping for  a camera lens and I ran into an Ashanti concert. She was having a free album release concert in conjunction with J & R Music World. What luck! She came on stage with four dancers and did some of her big hits. Joints like “Foolish”, “Happy”, and “Baby”. She also performed shortened versions of songs on her new album entitled, “The Declaration”. Ashanti gave us a taste of “Body On Me”, “Things You Make Me Do”, and “The Way That I Love You”. The dancers were tight and Ashanti had fun letting the crowd know how great it was to be “back home” in New York (Ashanti’s home town is Glen Cove, NY). The music is straight up R&B and radio friendly. Enjoy the pictures and the video of the concert. Another great free New York City performance.
