Ja Rule & Ashanti – Encore.

Ja Rule and Ashanti come through on a brand new single titled Encore. Ja Rule and Ashanti have always been a duo, the music fans have loved for more than a decade. On the new song “Encore,” we find Ja and Ashanti taking to an eighties-inspired groove, complete with g-funk inspired basslines and synth-work. The pair go back and forth, playing the coy lovers once again, this time in a different musical landscape than ever before.

Talks of a joint album from Ja and Ashanti have been going around for a few months. Back in June, the former Murder Inc. artists game ammunition to fans when they revealed that they were indeed working on a joint album. “I think we should do one of these joint albums,” Ja said in a tweet after getting inspired from Jay-Z & Beyonce’s Everything is Love album. Ashanti confirmed an album being in the works later in an interview.
