2002年崛起的Ashanti，無疑是全球流行樂壇最令人驚艷的黑人女聲之一！首張專輯不僅空降全美排行榜冠軍，〈Foolish〉、〈What's Luv〉、〈Always on Time〉更讓她成為史上第一位Billboard Top10中同時包辦3首單曲、包括冠軍的美聲嬌娃。銷量告捷之外，Ashanti更風光擄獲各大獎項：2002年Billboard音樂獎7項大獎、英國黑人音樂獎2座，2003年全美音樂獎2座、靈魂列車音樂獎2座，以及葛萊美最佳當代R&B專輯大獎，在在肯定她的實力與才華。第二張大碟《Chapter II》同樣空降全美冠軍，也締造了〈Rock Wit U (Awww Baby)〉、〈Rain On Me〉兩首Top 10情挑單曲。

This album was recorded in 1997 and was supposed to be released in 1998 but never did. So now in 2005 we can listen to an album of songs that actually showcase Ashanti's voice. Can't Stop features 10 brand new songs, 9 of which are true ballads that are sung from the heart and showcase what Ashanti can really do.
