Irv Gotti Says Ashanti ‘Ran Like A Cockroach’ When Feds Arrested Him In 2005— ‘She Has Not Made A Hit Since’

Irv Gotti is literally reflecting how so many men truly are. They gossip more than women.

The Murder Inc record executive  says that Ashanti ‘ran like a cockroach’ when the FBI arrested him in 2005 and claims she hasn’t had a hit since in response to accusations he’s ‘obsessed’ with her.

After his most recent interview on the “Drink Champs” podcast, where Irv spoke about feeling played by Ashanti during the time they worked together and had a secret relationship in the early 2000s, social media went crazy.

Page Six reached out to the record executive to ask if he was still infatuated with Ashanti.

“F - - k no,” he told the outlet.

“When the feds hit, she ran like the cockroaches when you turn the lights on,” Gotti told the outlet of the singer.

In 2005, Gotti and his brother Chris were charged and cleared by the court for money laundering charges. The label owners were accused of hiding garbage bags and shoeboxes stuffed with drug money and laundering it for a notorious Queens crack and heroin kingpin, Kenneth “Supreme” McGriff.

Gotti insinuates that when he turned himself in after feds raided his Murda Inc. office, Ashanti abandoned him.

On ‘Drink Champs’ recently, Irv took credit for helping Ashanti pen her biggest hits, including “Happy.”

Gotti said the inspiration behind the track came after they were intimate. But, things come to an end, according to him.

Maybe she hasn’t made a hit. Maybe she wasn’t loyal. Yet, her name still means enough where him talking about her reintroduces him to the spotlight. Irv is now using HER name for fame.

This is also not the first time Irv spoke about sleeping with Ashanti. He said it on Growing Up Hip Hop a while ago.
