Ashanti was expected to perform at Stony Brook University’s Back To Brook event but according to Bossip, that show was cut after they sold just 24 tickets to the concert.
A statement from the school read, “As an organization, we do our best to host programs for students while providing diversity and inclusion. However, we have struggled to execute certain aspects. With a week before the concert, only 24 tickets are sold to students.
The school went on to explain they had originally booked Teyana Taylor for the gig but she pulled out last minute, leaving the organizers to scramble to properly promote Ashanti as the new headliner.
