Ashanti loves Antigua and Barbuda. And who can blame her? It is only one of the most beautiful places in the Caribbean. Perhaps the world. The US R&B singer continues to show her love for the twin island state as she has chosen the islands to celebrate part of her birth month activities.

Ashanti turned “twenty-something” …Ok turned 42 on October 13^th and to celebrate her “youth”, she treated her family and close friends to a getaway in Antigua. In 2020 she did pretty much the same thing, celebrating her big 40 there as well.

She shared her experience with the world, using her Instagram to share her moments.

“This has been an incredible year filled with peaks and valleys… I must say my heart was pierced quite a few times…but it healed and was filled with love again… I was able to celebrate the 20th anniversary of my first album “Ashanti” and in the same week receive a star on the Hollywood walk of fame…released my first children’s book “My name is a story” and did a UK tour and shot two movies,” she wrote.

Adding, “I am beyond grateful as I continue to thrive and unfold my journey. As I sit on this island reflecting on life surrounded by family and friends, I am truly grateful to God for another year. Thank you all so, so much for your love and birthday wishes I appreciate you deep. Love y’all!!!!!”
