    Years later now I still bump Ja's 2nd album and I think it's up there in top 20 modern rap albums, in terms of production, lyrics, flows, and overall cohesion.
    M**da Inc was on top for a reason. They made great music. Well before 50 Cent blew up, and everyone in my High School was screaming G-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-gUNIT in the hallways.

    They should leave Ja alone! Let him eat. I don't like Ja, but some of his music back in the day was 🔥. But, they should let the man make a living and stop dissing him. He comes from rough beginnings. To come as far as he has, is humbling. But, other rappers that try to destroy eachother shouldn't. Because that's what the man is trying to do 24/7 already. 1❤

    Bruh Ja is and will forever be a legend and also 50 took the same route Ja did with the rapping and singing lol 🤣🤣🤣.
    Neega really delusional for 50 I swear lol

      50 cent said something about Ja that was true and may help you realize why ja had an embarrassing downfall. 50 rapped, '' Your success is not enough, you wanna be hard"
      Ja should have kept them hits coming and avoid street battles, but his dumb ass felt he was doing the right thing by going after Eminem, Dr Dre and Busta Rhymes. Who does that. Why not just stick to the Radio hits you making?
      And for some strange stupid reasons, he started saying, ' I'm the second coming of 2Pac' while disrespecting Eminem's daughter.
      His radio hits should have been enough. Don't try to be hard, the women love you already, the money is coming, make amends and move on...but no. To this day nobody really wants to work with him, and that's the embarrassing downfall part you don't seem to be getting

Does that mean outside of that beef he has to lose a VERZUS with Fat Joe? Does it mean he should not perform his hits to thrilled fans? Nah , nobody is saying that. I still dance to Ja's hits.

Watching the music videos on TV rather than UA-cam and the internet wasn't used as much so music was more important in people's lives. There's so much content now that it's kinda diminished music.
