Chapter II, the second album by 2002 hip-pop debutante Ashanti, is aimed squarely at the mainstream portion of her audience. She made her name with radio-ready duets featuring Ja Rule and Fat Joe, but Chapter II goes light on the rap, opting for only a small handful of cameos by co-producer Chink Santana. The mostly mid-tempo tracks are pleasant, but much of the album feels like an unfinished structure that'll only be fully built when the songs are remixed for the … mehrairwaves. Still, with the star's assured (and nicely undersold) vocals front and centre, it amounts to a breath of fresh air from production company Murder Inc. Note: "Breakup 2 Makeup" once more updates the Chaka Khan/Mary J Blige classic "Sweet Thing." --Rickey Wright weniger
