Ashanti has just made into The Guinness World Records for ‘Fastest Selling Debut Artist’ for her album ‘Ashanti.’ Such a classic album. We honestly need another one of those from her.
Ashanti took to her Instagram with a picture of her first album, with the caption,
Wow I can’t believe it’s been 14 years!!! We made history selling 503,000 copies the first week. The biggest selling debut from a Female Artist Ever. I am truly humbled and truly grateful to have such amazing people to help make this happen!!! And thank you to my amazing fans for all the love and support!!! #murderincrecords #guinessbookofworldrecords #history #myfirstalbum❤️ #Ashanti
The singer then posted a picture of the plaque she received saying,
Wow.. I can’t even put into words what this moment meant after three failed record deals before the age of 20 and 14 years later…”Literally” holding a Guinness world record…. #FastestSellingDebutFemaleArtist #Blessed #Grateful #Humbled
Well congratulations to Ashanti! She deserves it.
