Ashanti is planning to re-release her award-winning debut album Ashanti because she now owns the masters to the project.

According to news reports, the US singer is going to re-record the album released in 2002 so she can drop it under her own record label.

The songstress and songwriter’s first album had chart-topping tracks such as Foolish, Baby and Happy.

The CEO of Written Entertainment released her first album nearly 20 years ago and is now on a mission to redo the project and release it for the second time.

According to those in the know, Ashanti will now have full control of the album and will get a lion’s share of the money the re-recorded project will make.
