Things might have been quiet from Ashanti's camp the last few years, but looks like things are finally beginning to stir. The singer, whose last album The Declaration dropped in 2008, just released a new promotional photo shot by celebrity photographer Robert Ector. And word is she's been hitting the studio with Lil Wayne and Dr. Dre for her next album.

"Up in the studio with mad Haitian dudes dancin around!!!! Speakers knockin!!!! This beat is crazy!!!!!!!! SaK Paseeeeee!!! Lol!!!!" the "What's Luv?" singer tweeted.

Fans might be treated to a single this summer with an album release later this year. Tell us, are you anticipating her comeback?
