We caught up with Ashanti on the phones and talked about what life is like for her now, what songs really go off at an Ashanti concert, she asked who we thought would be a good collaborator for her, and we found out what's in her 'touring bag'. 

Ashanti's 'Rock Wit U' Australian and NZ tour hits Auckland, Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre, November 16th. Tickets from destroyalllines.com
