Ja Rule’s career: 

Ja Rule started his rap career in 1994 as a member of the group Cash Money Click. He changed his stage name to “Ja Rule”. The group produced many songs independently, including their debut single “Get Tha Fortune” in 1994. They were signed with TVT Records but were dropped from their label and they disbanded after just one year due to the arrest and imprisonment of group member Chris Black.

Ja Rule’s first solo appearance came on the song “Time to Build” by Mic Geronimo, which also featured Jay-Z and DMX. Rule signed with Def Jam in 1998 and was featured on the Jay-Z single “Can I Get A”. His debut album Venni Vetti Vecci was released in 1999 and eventually hit No.1 on the Billboard 200 chart. His second and third albums were both certified 3x Platinum and hit No.1 on the Billboard 200 and Top Hip-Hop charts. 

Ja Rule released his fourth album on November 19, 2002, debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, and spawned two hit singles. His fifth and sixth albums were released in 2003 and 2004. After a sixth studio album and a greatest hits album, Ja Rule departed his contract with Def Jam in 2005 and took a hiatus until February 2011 when he announced he had started working on a new album “Pain is Love 2”. It was released one year later, and by that time, he was serving a two-year prison sentence for tax evasion and gun possession. He was released in May 2013.

After his release from prison, Ja Rule and Gotti launched Murder Inc Records. He also released a memoir in 2014 titled Unruly: The Highs and Lows of Becoming a Man. He announced his eighth studio album shortly after, but it was pushed back indefinitely.

Feuds:

The most publicized feud was with 50 Cent in 1999, after filming a video shoot in Queens because 50 Cent reportedly did not like Ja Rule “getting so much love” from the community in Hollis. The two confronted each other in Atlanta and Ja Rule claims he struck 50 Cent with a baseball bat. Another confrontation occurred in New York City where rapper Black Child, one of Ja Rule’s artists on Murder Inc, stabbed 50 Cent and caused him to need stitches. In May 2011, it was confirmed by both rappers that they had ended their feud.

Fyre Festival:

Attendees, some of whom paid thousands of dollars for their tickets, were left stranded on a garbage-strewn gravel lot with little food and only FEMA disaster tents for the accommodations. Most of the scheduled musical performances, upon learning about the conditions at the festival, had already backed out by the time attendees got to the island. On May 1st, 2017 a festival attendee filed a $100 million class-action lawsuit against Ja Rule and his festival co-founder Billy McFarland.
