Rain on Me

"Rain on Me" is a single released by R&B singer Ashanti in 2003 from her second album Chapter II. The single reached number seven on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States and the top 20 in the United Kingdom. In the video Ashanti plays a superstar abused by a jealous boyfriend, played by actor Larenz Tate. The video was released on August 28, 2003. The video was shot in Barcelona, Spain, and directed by Hype Williams. It contains a sample of "The Look Of Love" by Isaac Hayes. The rap remix found on her "Collectibles" album interpolates "Can I Live?" by rapper Jay-Z, which also samples the same Hayes song (and also produced by Irv Gotti). The remix also features Hussein Fatal and fellow The Inc. Records labelmates Charli "Chuck" Baltimore and Ja Rule. There are two videos for the song.

In 2004, the song earned Ashanti a Grammy nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.

Lyrics and music video

Ashanti's lyrics for "Rain on Me" address the pains and challenges of facing, and eventually overcoming, an abusive relationship. Wanting to bring her lyrics to life in a cinematically ambitious, narrative driven way, the singer/songwriter worked with LidRock & director Hype Williams to produce the mini-movie version of the song.

My Own Way Home

My Own Way Home is the third album from Spanish singer Beth, released on 9 October 2006 in Spain. It was released in the UK on 11 September 2006. The disc contains ten songs (eight English tracks and two Spanish tracks).
