Singer Ashanti called out former record label executive Irv Gotti for talking about their alleged relationship and opened up about the real reason she left the hip-hop label he co-founded.
In her Tuesday appearance on the "Angie Martinez IRL" podcast, the "Foolish" singer slammed her former boss, who in August revealed that he had been in love with her while she was signed to Murder Inc. Records in the early aughts and has repeatedly claimed that he "made" her, which she also refuted by saying that he just "helped make her great."
"Irv has flat out lied about a lot of things," the 42-year-old singer-songwriter said during the hourlong interview. "And there are so many things I know. ... I don't have the desire to expose certain things. I'm happy. I operate at a very different vibration than him. I don't play in the mud. ... I don't need to bring someone down to make myself feel like 'Yeah!'
