Ashanti is back!

Hours after her highly-anticipated Verzuz battle with Keyshia Cole, the 40-year-old singer released her latest single titled “235 (2:35 I Want You).”

On the track, Ashanti sings about not being able to sleep because she yearns for the love and affection of her man.

“I wanna think about it, wanna think about it / Wanna see what this could be / Wanna take it there but I’m kinda scared,” Ashanti sings. “‘Cause I don’t know if we’re ready / So when I think about it / Don’t wanna waste no more time, wanna be about it, hey.”

“235 (2:35 I Want You)” is the first single Ashanti has released since her 2019 “Pretty Little Thing.” She also appeared on DaBaby’s song “Nasty,” also featuring Megan Thee Stallion, last year.

Ashanti’s last album Braveheart came out in 2014. No word yet if she’s planning on releasing another album soon.

The much-anticipated Verzuz showdown between Ashanti and Keyshia Cole is being pushed back again.

After the musical battle was pushed back once already after Ashanti revealed she tested positive for coronavirus back in December, the show’s organizers confirmed that it was once again being pushed back.

“This has been an emotional week. In addition, as COVID-19 numbers continue to increase, safety is a top priority for us. As much as we enjoy having everyone together in the same room, to protect the artists and everyone who works with us in putting the shows together, we’re going back to separate locations for a bit. We’re excited for the next few events, and look forward to getting back to the show in the coming weeks,” they announced on Friday (January 8).

There was another Verzuz battle over the summer that generated SO much buzz and lots of social media chatter.

Sad news for any fans who were looking forward to the Verzuz battle between Ashanti and Keyshia Cole – the event has been postponed indefinitely.

The battle was canceled just two hours before the event was set to begin, though there’s a chance it may still happen in a different way.
