I appluad Soul Train's decision to stick with Ashanti's nomination--*the girl did have the highest selling debut album by a woman,
*she was the first to have 4FOUR4 singles on the Billboard charts at the same time
*and I heard on the radio that she wrote all the songs on her album (something not even Mary or Alicia Keys can boast) and she wrote J-Lo's Ain't it funny

It's been a pretty quiet year for female artists in R/B/Hip Hop. I think with all of her achievements this year, a nomination doesn't deserve such uproar. But I do have to admit that Soul Train's rebuttal statement was in poor taste, especially the attacks/praise on BET.
