Did 50 CENT Kill JA RULE'S Rap Career? 3 Reasons His Growth Was Stunted!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 мар 2021
- Ja Rule musically was on top of the world in the early 2000s. He had a unique style where he would harmonize on his songs while rapping just as well that was the formula for hit making. Nowadays that formula is oversaturated in the rap game, but in Ja's era, he was one of the first to make that style popular and he blew up behind it. But his reign on top was cut short a lot due to the beef he had with 50 Cent. The consensus is that Ja Rule lost that beef musically and to make matters worse, 50 cent took off with his formula, while he was clowned over the years and never recovered. Here are 3 reasons Jar Rule's Growth was Stunted. Did 50 Cent Kill Ja Rule's rap career? Stunted Growth Music

Ja Rule beefed with 50 at a time 50 was just undeniable!! While Ja was doing his melodic type records, which were FIRE by the way, Fif came with a new energy and filled a void that was lacking in the game at that time!! That street & gritty rap!! Fif being shot 9 times and surviving also helped with his image in the game!! Then when GRODT dropped, there was nothing Ja can do to rebuttal that!! Ja definitely left a stamp in the game and gave the culture timeless records but at this point people seem to only mention Ja in connection to his beef that HE LOST to 50....it is what it is!!
Can’t do both. It like when MC hammer singed to death row
You nailed it 🙌🏽👌🏽💯
Naw, the feds held murder Inc down. Plus 50 got a lot of help behind the scenes. It wasn't just 50.
There was plenty gritty street rap before 50 popped, they just didn't have an em and Dre co-sign and that interscope/XXL machine behind them. 50 started doing a bunch of melodic stuff soon after his beef with murder inc..
One man can’t kill a career on his own, and the industry seemed to kinda turn on Ja at the time. I remember at the time it seemed like everyone from Fif, to Em, Xzhibit, Busta, and others just seemed like they dog piled on Ja at the same time. Plus the media kinda ran with and accepted the narrative of 50 ending his career without really giving Ja a chance to come back. I don’t think I’ve heard a single song on the Blood in my Eye album on the radio besides Clap Back (which is insane for an artist on Ja’s level), and he actually had some reasonable success with the “New York” song in 04. But it seemed like someone just decided his career was over and wouldn’t let me climb out of the hole.
He was a top musician at one point, not just a top "rapper"! He reached the top and has countless hits! His growth was not stunted in any way because he reached his full potential! His career just ran it's course!
Agree he reached the superstar level when I think of growth stunted its someone who had superstar potential but didnt reach it
Agreed. Your comment should be pinned.
@@clayne10 hmmmmmmmmmm 🤔🤔 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@brandongilbert3071 right he was the biggest rapper on the planet from 2000-2006 ...he was the legit first crossover rapper ...what i mean he was over as a pop and rap act more than anyone before him...and the narrator is right 50 did take ja's style so did jayz
@@thepubknight6144 facts
Ja should have never said anything to 50 at that time Ja was on fire, And Ja allowed 50 to play him outta of his spot
Yeah, the last time we heard from Ja Rule he was with the infamous Fyre festival
Somewhere I can visualise Fiddy cackling at the karmic hand dealt his rival
I mean but Ja understood the rules of the game. Squash him before he gets big enough to squash you or gain steam. That’s what happened to cannibus, but 50 was a better artist & he had buzz through the mixtape scene too and had he not gotten shot, still would’ve had that Columbia deal.
He never really said anything. He laughed it off and said he's a nobody. It wasn't a rap battle beef like Jay vs Nas
That is soooo true🤦🏽♀️
Not saying anything would’ve made things worse. It’s hip hop. Responding is a part of it. 50 became one of the biggest stars on the planet. How do you not respond when one of the biggest rappers in the game is calling you out in front of the entire world?
The Murda Linc investigation hurt his Career Bad
Thanks to 25 ¢
Ja literally mastered the delicate balance of pop appeal and street cred that so many rappers coveted then and covet now. Dude was releasing multiplatinum albums like it was nothing. He was a pop megastar.
Yea man his career got stunned but I'm not gonna lie his first 4 albums was fire
First 4?
You reaching with the 4!!
I think you meant to say his 1st album, and then leave it at that...
Unless you're a female, then you loved the next 2
FACTS
Yeah first 4 albums is great albums
50/Feds Stunted Ja's growth for sure...he shouldn't have went back and forth with 50. And the timing just wasn't on Rule's side either. 50 is built for beef, Ja wasn't!!
No he went at Em and Dr Dre.
Fif had Dr Dre enough said
Honestly, I don't think 50 killed Ja's career, it was the investigation by the FBI with Murder Inc. that killed it. That's tough to come back from when the FEDS trying to shut you down. Ja was tight though, had some club bangers and hardcore songs I like, so can't knock dude...he was a good rapper.
Big facts💯💯💯
I always think about that to this day. The FEDS basically froze whatever assets they had and told Def Jam/UMG not to give Irv a single penny.
Definitely...and I never liked Ja Rule but couldn't act like he didn't make hit after hit. He had the musical talent. But I still think if 50 didn't go at him, or feds ain't come knocking, he'd still fall off because nobody survives rap forever. His sound was going to get old and repetitive. Like Wayne is my goat, top three rappers but after drought 3 and Carter 3 And all the songs I was listening to all day everyday I got tired of hearing him.
Ja Rule career was already on the decline (because of Curtis) when the FBI investigation happened.
Agree
I love Ja. To this day I find it ironic that 50 Cent and others dissed him for singing on rap songs when years later that would be the standard in mainstream hip-hop.
can we stop this. Every rapper has sung on a hook from Pac on Me & My Girlfriend to B.I.G. on Another but Ja was on some hitting high Thug notes shit. It was a period where homey had a list of singers that he had duets with. Also we always tend to forget when a rapper start beef it leaves them open to some aspect of their style or images that will be pointed out. Trust way before 50 came out Ja was already on the decline, 50 jut pointed out what alot of people were already saying.
@@maximbelmont4641 I agree with a lot of the points you said. Personally I never thought Ja had a good singing voice. I just really find it funny how 50 Cent dropped 21 Questions and eventually had a song years later with G-Unit "Rider Pt2" where he's using auto tune in a sing song way similar to a Kirko Bangs type rapper. A prophet Ja never was because Bone Thugz, Fat Pat, Klondike Kat, and sometimes The Pharcyde did the sing songy flow, but that alone shouldnt be a reason to diss an rapper if you're going to do the same thing he's doing.
@@maximbelmont4641 ja wasn't on the decline when he was beefing with 50. What are you talking about? he was the hottest rapper out at the time. Drake wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Ja
@@051landookay Ja first single off The Last temptation was Thug Loving with Bobby Brown...I don't know where you were in 2002 but when that shit came out ppl said it was garbage.
2nd his next single was mesmerize with Ashanti. Listen to that song against...better yet watch the video...I don't know where you were in 2003 but no one was blasting that shit in the clubs or in their car.
Now on the Drake remark: please tell me what about Drake style says he learn that shit from Ja.
Cause I hope you don't really want to say it's singing since in music that shit is a norm. I don't think Ja stumble on something that would have never been thought before in the history of music...you know singing hooks for bitches isn't on some Coltrane shit.
Especially since Drake blueprint was laid down by L.L. Cool J when he wrote "I need love" 30 years ago.
@@maximbelmont4641 All facts Ja Rule was singing notes 50 was just harmonizing
It's simple All of Ja Rules fans became 50 Cents fans. 50 Cent really showed us How to Rob.
If Ja Rule didn't ignore John Singletons phone calls after Fast & Furious. Ja would still be relevant right now too!
He was feeling himself when he was on top of his game in Hip Hop after 3:36 came out.
Oh this is news to me. Never knew this. Interesting
Ludacris took his spot
DMX finished Belly before his 2nd album dropped. Ain't no excuse for Ja not piccing up that phone call
@@SBTheBully Yes, I looked it up. Because I wondered why Ja wasn't in the series anymore. His success backfired smh. But, Ludacris is a great actor too though.
He actually said he didn't do Fast and the furious 2..... because it conflicted with the tour he was on. He said that the movie was paying him $500,000. When the whole tour he made like 13 million so basically he made the right choice at that time
Ja Rule definitely had a lane for himself and could’ve had a run from 1999- 2008. His first mistake is acknowledging 50 because 50 had more believable treet edge and had that interscope machine backing him. Ja problem was that he was trying to appeal to the streets when he was beefing but the streets wasn’t feeling those radio hits he had no chance.He should’ve just kept making hits for the ladies and eventually that Ja Rule hate train would’ve blown over. When you rap for the women they’ll buy your records and the dudes will follow what the women do simple. The general masses was just sick of him and wanted to make Ja Rule the punching bag of music. 50 Cent was just jealous and wanted his spot that’s all. He still had a solid 5-6 year run👍🏽btw he should’ve had a collab album with Ashanti around 2004 would went at least double platinum.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
But candy shop was street ?😆 FOH
Jay z def jam n the fed did them d worst 50 comes after these people in that other
@T Mitch facts your right
@@grailgrail3789 so why did Jay have beef wit Ja then the 2nd album they didnt record a song with each other
Yo this channel could go on forever with the amount artist that fell by the wayside 🙏🙏
Facts one of the reasons this channel my favorite rn
The beef started because they were both cool with each other’s enemies. JA was cool with an enemy of 50’s and 50 was cool with an enemy of JA. That’s how it started. Then add the jealousy, robbing, stabbing, etc.
That’s why they will never be cool. It’s deep. Funny thing is, if they befriended each other instead of their enemies they probably would have worked well together, become close friends, and then change the game in a different way. [x]
You right about everything lol
I could have sworn it had something to do with How To Rob and everyone including Ja Rule wanting 50's head.
@@shauncameron8390 nope
Ja was cool with what enemy of 50's??
@@shauncameron8390 Yeah but 50 did not throw any shots at Ja on How To Rob ..
That's the biggest misconception in hip hop that 50 Cent ended Ja Rule's career... it was the Interscope machine that ended Ja Rule. It was Ja Rule vs. 50 Cent, G-Unit, Eminem, D12, Dr. Dre, Busta Rhymes, Obie Trice and he was also beefing with DMX at the time. It was overkill
The feds, court fees, incarceration, industry abandonment stopped his career
Man, when 50 flooded the streets with the mixtapes & started gaining major steam, I remember thinking damn, whoever sign him is gonna cash in. Then I heard Em/Dre signed him after Puff & others passed cuz of his street drama.
truth is 50 just couldnt be stopped and had all the resources after he got shot and was very smart in how he turned ja rules fan base against him . the cats that were fucking with him switch sides real quick in only a year later. I remember that shift like it was yesterday
Absolutely right bro!!! I literally saw the fans jump ship as well!!! I was like mannnnnnn just like that
Cuz 25 ¢ was a dry snitch cuz 2 of his albums got shelved and was acting all hard and feeling himself when he had Skittles and Dr lame helping him out
True even Jay z said as much on the breakfast club. Everyone had to sit back and ride that 50 wave
@@minatodroger7890 Well yeah once 50 had Em And Dre co sign him of course he was going to be a problem
I honestly NEVER thought 50 ruined ja career, before 50 came into the picture ja had a good 3 to 4 year run, thats a standard run for any hip hop artist that is hot at any given time. Ja first album is a classic
No. People forget ja's run didnt really end until 2005. G unit did slow his career down and made people look at ja funny tho. Also music was changing and ja was prolly not gonna be a top tier rapper by the late 2000's anyway, just look at fifs music career after 2007.
You mean 05 when gane demolished the whole unit plus the south was starting to take over 25 cents killed NY rap thats why its the way it is now becuase he beefed with everyone thought he shook the whole industry but nobody was scared of him only the mainstream artists mainly they were acting like they were not going to do nothing or probably wanted him to shine but the south rappers were ready for dude to play chess like three 6 and Tommy Wright the 3 weren't scared of this clown

@@Jac735 facts
2007 is being very generous. 50s reign was short lived. Honestly his peak ended after the massacre in 2005. 03-05.
Jarule made platinum albums all the way from 98 to 2003 which is a good run and Venni Vetti Vecci is one of the best albums ever which was Jarule debut album
Definitely wasn’t better that get rich or die tryin
@@Backbypopdemand personally I liked Venni Vetti Vecci better
@@sherrythompson9338 becuase he had the machine behind him of course u gonna shine if you have familiar artits and producers in the game
@@sherrythompson9338 .... You smoking some good shit if you think that
I have to disagree. Ja Rule’s best work was his debut guest appearance on Mic Geronimo’s first album as well as the Cash Money Click Get the Fortune Maxi Single.
i remember when i was a little youngin Ja Rule was that dude from like late 98'-03 .. then 50 came around and shut that down quick.
hell yeah its funny how the fans were so fickle and went against ja but like 50 said they are not loyal
Back then I never liked Ja or believed he was as hard as he portrayed himself to be...so 50 won me over hella quick😂
@@scinnyc but 25 ¢ has girl tendencies and only won a couple of beefs he lost to everyone mainly wu tang d block game the list goes on yall just know about the mainstream beefs but alot if artits are better than Curtis 🐀 son
1998-02
Ja made a little comeback in 05 then vanished again.
It’s Murda!!! Ja made timeless music! Where I’m from, never again, race against time are 3 amazing classics from him.
Ain't nobody denying that ja was lit 1999 - 2002 , ja sold alot albums , n was able put out classic hits after hits
I knew this was coming. Thanks bro. If you ain't done Lil Flip yet, may I make a suggestion?
That's a good suggestion bro! But I can tell you that he is still making music and doing good as far as how he's living his music just doesn't get played on the radio and he's not as big as he was before. I saw a video on him in December 2020 and he was saying how he was still doing music and that it wasn't really the beef with Tip that killed his career it was him having problems with his label and other stuff was going on that people didn't know about. T.I. is supposed to be getting him on his podcast radio show that's on RUclips Exspitiously or whatever it's called to talk to him and see what he's been up to since they are cool now. Sorry if this was too long I don't know how I could've made it any shorter without all these paragraphs and all lol.
That would definitely be interesting 🧐
GAME OVER!! flippa was killing it on that album
T.i.P
This is the one I was waiting for
“Never Againnnn” Lmaoooo 😩😭
Dtfl 😂😂
The fyre festival. Never again 😏
😂😂😂
Ja's blood in my eye album was a return to the sound he had on Venni Vetti Vecci there really was no switch up except for the fact that he didn't do street songs for 4 years. I glad somebody else finally called out 50 for stealing that sound for 21 questions. Another thing that you didn't hit on here was Ja's fascination with 2Pac which also hurt him. Then DMX dissed him and he fell out with Jay. Murder inc in the beginning was collaborating with Def Jam more but after a certain point of success they isolated themselves which hurt them.
This short documentary left out a very important and crucial part in this rivalry - 50, has the backing of Jimmy Ivone & Interscope. Had 50 been signed to Sleeping Bag Records for instance Ja, would have remained on top.
Yeah 50 had the entire Shady/Aftermath/Interscope family backing him without them i doubt he would of lasted too long yeah.
Had it not been for Eminem’s attorney discovering 50’s Guess who’s back mixtape, who knows where 50 would’ve been.
@@geebee6010 50 would of probably still been big but not even near as close as he was under Em, Dres, And Lovines eyes yeah.

Yay another one!!! Thanks for uploading!!
50 was like I'm bout to take all of that
Ja rule from 1999-2003 is the best
R.u.l.e album 💿 04 was fire too
Yeah hard to stay he was stunted. He had the throne... matter fact Murder Inc had it
I still play "How many wanna" to this day
@@alwensday8120 that song hard
@@nicholasstroman9558 yea its sad thats when he lost his fans and the idoits turned to 25 ¢ while he still on the internet being bored cuz the man dont got nothing else better to do while everyone has family and everything living the dream while dude is whining and complaining wishing it was 02 again 😆
Bro I'm still waiting for that Musiq Soulchild and Carl Thomas video's I requested like in Feb. of this year. Not rushing you on it I just wanna keep reminding you that's all.
Exactly. I wanna know what really happened.
50 was like the Terminator coming at Murder Inc.
They jumped 50, stabbed 50, shot 50 and he still kept coming at them like a cyborg from the future. They must've have been like what do we have to do to stop 50.
50 was a savage back then.
Ja really started the singing hooks with rap like 50cent & drake doing as of today.🤷🏽♂️ Ja should of stick with the flow that made him millions along with radio play.
Actually 50 cent is the original hook singer and chorus maker . Ja rule took his style.
50 cents first song called "Glow of a Thug" released in 1996 before Ja rule was evena mainstream artist has him singing choruses.
You can listen to Glow of thug on youtube
He really switched over cause he didn't wanna be compared to DMX that's why he dissed him in that Rap City freestyle
Added you to my must watch. The care you put into this series is clear to see. Possible you could one for A Tribe Called Quest? Keep up the great work. Much love from Trinidad and Tobago.
Ja Rule growth never was stunted, he reached superstar level. Hip-Hop music was changing after 05' (the South takeover) eventually Ja was gonna dwindle out eventually, right alongside with Nelly. Difference is it happened earlier than expected cause of Federal indictment and 50 Cent beef.
Been waiting for this one
I always thought had Ja just ignored 50 and Aftermath and kept putting out those big records after big records, he would have drowned out 50 and kept raking in money
50 hard to ignore wouldn't u say , but round 2002 ja was on a whole another level that 50 was not fuckin wit
Stunt #4, the Fyre Festival.
How can you overlook something as obvious as THAT
Def Jam abandoned his team and the Feds finished them off. 50 Had a whole team of people to make sure he succeeded which he did not have for that first album even though both Em and Destiny' Child was on it. He benefited from the controversy of getting shot while Ja was being sold out and robbed of millions of dollars.
Plain and simple shady team snitched. And made sure Ja woyldnt maje a come back why you think everyone knows thier disses but not murder inc disses what does that tell you
Ja had a team too maybe not as big as Em, Dre, And Jimmy but he had Irv, X, And Jay all backing him for a while yeah.
@@matthewmann8969 Wrong. The Roc, Ruff Ryder, and M Inc. was competing. Def Jam chose Jay over all of them. X ended up signing to Columbia, M Inc. folded, and the Roc got ethered.

Bro I just come home after work, crack a beer, smoke a bowl and let you take me back to my childhood. Keep it up💯🍺👊
Great channel and content
You are so on point with this one 💪.
Great work. That was a classic beef. I would say it’s the number one career ending beef and hip-hop history.
50 didn’t end Ja’s career Jimmy Iovine did .
In that case Kanye did not end 50s career but Dame Dash did.
Stunted na. His career was exactly how it was suppose to be. Was/is successful. Dude made bread raised a family aint in prison. If he had passion to make more music he would.
50 was just dropping fire after fire after fire.. his mixtapes were MOVING!!! If ja was putting out that same if not better level of heat, it would have def turned out different.
Hey dude, your sports content is bomb. But the music content is even better.
Could you do one on Big Pun?
I HOPE you do Stunted rap artist or rock stars,,Dude this is insanely awesome
Wasn't his fault fans just stopped caring after 50 dropped(even tho he had a hit with New York)
I think its time we gave JA his credit, JA was on top, 50 took his spot, then Kanye took 50's spot, then it was a mix of Lil Wayne, then Drake. It happens, JA is still a legend
People forgotten Ja has platlium and GOLD hits before we heard of a 50 cent& since Im on that R.I.P to the real 50 Cent from Downtown Brooklyn
That PIL2 album is heavily slept on
I never cared for his music but I always thought that it was wrong for 50 cent to mess with his career or anybody else's.

Thank you
Can u do B.o.B or Plies next? Great video by the way
What interview was that at the end. The cutoff/edit you made was kind of funny-style.
Ja Rule has a dope voice. I think he could be the Charlie Wilson of rap and make a comeback if he catches the right wave and producer.
I personally always thought Ja Rule was fake af. His energy just never seemed authentic to me. All that growling he did in his raps didn't help his image either...like he was trying to be DMX, Onyx and Pac combined. I couldn't stand Ja in the late 90s/early 2000s but he had tracks here and there that I liked...most notably his few collabs with Jay-Z and DMX. But 50 was just the right person at the right time to come and pull Ja's hood card and bring something fresh to the rap game. 50 was that real nigga, while Ja was singing with JLo and Ashanti. He was the perfect target for 50 to go at. But in retrospect Ja wasn't that bad at all. But he still never compared to 50 because 50 was just such a beast in hip hop at the time that even til this day it still makes Ja look damn near insignificant
Thank you💯💯💯💯💯
Facts ja was never in the streets nobody can testify to that
50 Cent didn't kill his rap career he paralyzed that career dude can make a solid move anymore.
The feds
We need a Saigon one to
Don't get me started on Saigon he really let me down
Saigon was his own problem

I cant decide which one I like better. Your basketball series or music series
What is that beat at the end? Can I get a song name? That shit is nice!
Ja had 4 hot album witch all went platinum that a pretty good rap career now 50 cent didn't kill his rap career it was the feds when you got the feds on your neck you can't do anything plus his wave was running out and when 50cent came with that new energy every one switch sides the average rap career is 2years his time just was up
1st album - Platinum
2nd album - 3x Platinum
3rd album - 4x Platinum
4th album - Platinum
It’s crazy to me how all of this was mentioned not once did I hear anything about the F.E.D.S which was the biggest part of why Murder inc was dropped by the label but OK I get it 50 really sold the narrative well because the fans all fell for it I was living in this moment, and I always saw it different. They were so much things behind the scenes that hindered Ja Rule’s career besides 50 and the fans switching up on him.
In the beginning when I heard him start singing when he was rapping almost hit the floor laughing 🤣
Even in Texas, we were on that Rule 3:36 and Pain Is Love album heavy.
You can hate on Ja, but them early joints was all fire!!!!
@Javier Zapata That was lame AF man.... Are you 12 years old?
Do something speaking about Omarion
Do Papoose next!
Can you do one about Nelly or Ashanti as well?
Also I’m a keep saying to cover Ryan Leslie until you cover him lol
This is really good video. You completely laid out why things went bad for Ja. And people who think the beef with 50 had nothing to do with Ja falling off, you’re completely in denial. So the backlash against him in the public had nothing to do with 50? His videos were being booed on 106 & park, you think that had nothing to do with the beef with 50? His record sales declined. So it’s all just a coincidence, huh? Ja himself even said there was a backlash against MI because of his beef with 50.
Dayyum they booed him on 106 and park when?? Thats crazy
@@Jac735 Happened in ‘03. Ja even addressed it in a XXL interview.
@@ERGSEG The funny part bout it is , even Busta Rhymes said on the Hail Mary '03 diss track w/ Em and 50
"106 & Park fans don't even fuckin respect you" ..

@Jac735 oh yh, I remember. 'The Reign' video.
It's actually mad, because it was only a few years before that his video 'Put it on me' that was on the countdown for so long, they retired it.
Yea 50 crushed him him they did everything to black ball 50 cent from all the radio stations. They even stopped certain artist from working with him. 50 created that mixtape buzz changing the entire format of a freestyle creating full blown songs. That automatic gunfire mixtape was brutal, on top of all the other disses. Once 50 signed to Eminem & dr DRE it got worse because at that point the entire New York turned against ja Jay z, busta rhymes, dmx, he got fucked up real bad. When get rich or die tryin dropped there was absolutely nothing ja could do to stop 50s momentum this diss songs that he came out with weren’t even that good he lost the battle lyrical & lost the war overtime🤷🏾♂️ shit happens
Ja Rule DMX and Jay Z were unstoppable at def jam NY🔥🔥🔥
I don't think I could see ja's career going past 2005 because by that time trap music was already setting in and artists like gucci, Jeezy, Mike Jones and Chamillionaire were setting in nicely, I felt like 50 did him a favor because his music couldn't last in that wave, also 50's music survived because he made mostly street music anyways so he almost fit right in as well as being at the top of the rap game at the time anyways
This was in my recommended
How to rob is amazing song
Oh yeah. The Mad Rapper "Tell Em Why U Madd" album its off of imo is a hidden gem.
Dig this series. Do a Young Buck episode. We used to blast his sh*t down range.
A little less focus on Curtis, and more on making the Hits that he was making, and he would've been fine. Beef with X, and falling out with Jay didn't help either.
Absolutely but what REALlY did it was him dissing EM DRE and Busta for no reason. Of course he can't fight ,50/gunit em/D12/Obie and Dr Dre/aftermath by himself. But he did it to himself. Black child and that other guy from murder Inc was TERRIBLe and ain't gonna do nothing in a music beef. There albums never even came out ?
Whar i like about Ja is his versatility with his flow......he can get raw with his radio freestyles then switch it up do a collabo with a pop or r&b star......theres only a few that could pull that off in rap.....plus if he's a stand up guy in person......😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Y'all gotta remember to Ja also had beefs with other rappers like DMX, Busta rhymes, Eminem, Dr Dre, Prodigy, Jayo Felony, Kurupt & more around the same time he was into it with 50cent so all that added fuels to him getting destroyed & his career ended. A lot of rappers wasn't feeling Ja rule at all lol 😂
Quite interesting.
People leave out one of the biggest reasons why he fell of is the FEDS taking all their money
U should do one on MIA
On the real,I accidentally started listening to Ja because I thought he was DMX
Where can I find the full video @ 0:26
Do Def Jam. They should have gone on to be a major label.
Get Rich or Die trying, was a classic
I know this request sounds crazy but I think you should do a stunted growth on Young Jeezy. He was a legit goat from 2005-2008 didn't hear much from him after that, then he returned with a song with Ne-yo disappeared again I think still makes music but I would imagine him in a boss position like Camron or P.Diddy signing new rappers.
