...hard to get past Ashanti's Foolish. Foolish was the No. 1 song in the country for 11 weeks, mostly on the strength of a hook borrowed from the Notorious B.I.G.'s 1995 summer hit One More Chance. Ashanti is smart enough to let the hook do the bulk of the work while her smooth voice flutters around creating a sense of longing. In a thin field, it's summer's best tortured ballad.
