What segment are y'all most excited for with Ja?
TIME STAMPS:
2:52 -- Ja reflects on the simpler days when he was just getting started in the business while being in the midst of such a momentous time in hip hop. He tells about sitting in the studio with Gil Scott-Heron and gaining so much from his wealth of wisdom. They also get into Ja's start with the Queens trio Cash Money Click and how they came together. All starting with friends hustling in Hollis and one of them getting put on to several mixtapes by Mic Geronimo and DJ Irv Gotti. He illustrates what those early studio sessions were like with him coming to the realization that getting real pay as an emcee could be more than just a dream.
11:20 -- Ja gets asked when he made the conscious decision to leave hustling behind and fully focus on music. He outlines how he got pulled into the street life at the age of 12 years old. Being raised by his grandparents who were Jahova's Witness, shielded from everything early on. He also explains the fallout between his mother and grandparents, him staying with her fulltime and having to find a way to help pay the bills. He also tells how he navigated the Southside vs. Hollis Queens rivalry with him having connections on both sides and they go on to compare and contrast the differences that each NY borough had with their distinctive contributions to the culture.
22:13 -- Ja talks about the importance of longtime friend Irv Gotti during the entire course of his career, being there for each other though all the ups and downs. Ja telling that Irv was the first one that made him believe in himself having the potential to achieve real success in the rap game. They go on to explore Ja's take on why the Murder Inc. supergroup comprised of Jay-Z, DMX and Ja Rule never fully came to fruition. Ja also outlines his most favorable memories during the height of success, talks about leveling up with his feature and writing of the hook for Jay-Z's 'Can I Get A...', and tells what it was like being on the Hard Knock tour.
34:06 -- Ja speaks on the criticism he received for singing on his own hooks by his peers such as 50 Cent who then ended up later doing the same thing himself when he reached the mainstream. Ja explains the transition from his first album 'Venni Vetti Vecci' to his sophomore effort and why it ended up being so different. He lays out the whole process of making 'Rule 3:36' fully recorded in Los Angeles, the significance behind the title, the backlash from the NY crowd over the departure from his original sound, and carving out his own lane with an approach that others hadn't really tapped into.
50:50 -- Jasmin asks Ja what he has to say about Ashanti as an artist, a collaborator and a friend. Ja then goes to touch on some of the lesser known facts regarding his beef with 50 Cent. He is asked if his song 'New York' was part of the reason he made a return to his originating style. Ja then revists more things surrounding the beef including some of the behind the scenes conflicts that were taking place that many didn't realize, as well as what Ja feels was the biggest part of the story having to do with the FBI investigation into Murder Inc., 50 playing both sides, and his full take what really started the whole thing in the first place.
1:07:57 -- Ja tells the story of him and Irv continually ordering Cash Money Click's 'Get The Fortune' video on The BOX as a way to promote it to no end. Ja outlines the meeting at Def Jam with Jam Master Jay seeing the video, him stating that Ja was destined for stardom, leading to Jay contacting them for their own meeting at the studio, bringing them onto the team. Jas goes on to ask Ja if he would ever consider doing a Verzuz battle with 50 Cent, while discussing some of the similarities to the Jeezy and Gucci Mane beef. Ja also gives his take-aways from time being incarcerated, reading about the teachings of Malcolm X, and pulling from the strength of Nelson Mandella.
1:21:13 -- Ja responds to Dave Chappelle's “Where’s Ja??!” joke. They discuss celebrity worship and opinions being held in too high a regard, Dave's recent social commentary and why that was the acception, Ja speaks on his marriage to high school sweetheart Aisha Atkins, they talk about colorism, Ja answers some questions about the fraudulent 'Fyre' music festival, tells if he has regrets about the situation, and if he takes any accountability for what happened. Ja also talks about his take on the authorities and media ignoring controversial things surrounding other music festivals and him possibly being singled out.
1:36:36 -- Talib asks Ja to tell about his future plans in music as well as anything else. Ja gets into details about his management company titled 'Iconic Sounds', their artist-centered approach of partnering up with new talent and showing them how to navigate the music business. He also tells about a new video series anthology that he's putting together dealing with some of the biggest cons in American history, as well as his tech platform 'Iconn' to help artists take control of their own booking and more easily monetize their content.
Thanks, I just wanna hear what this clown had to say about 50, you saved me most of the interview, Jamaica Queens here too, The Italian side H.B Home of Gotti and 4 other Don's back then, 50 is loved by us, Rule is a punk!
Get some fresh content😴 .. PODCASTS are 💩 .. living off of the irrelevant past stories
@@anthonyarcanumsanctumregnu9551 😅😅 same here, nobody checking Ja fool
Hands down
Better than 50 cent

Ja Rule always has that really good charismatic energy, he never lost his light. Great animated story teller!

People like to clown Ja but he is a legend who earned his spot. I still play Get the Fortune from Cash money click til this day
You have an interesting idea of what a legend is. I mean, he had some songs. But legend status? Really? 🤔
@@SuperMunkeh Yeah you right I was a bit overblown
Jarule is a Legend , hes music plays more then 50 on the radio ,it means hes timeless
@@SuperMunkeh i bet you haven't even listened to a Ja Rule album before. He's definitely a legend.
That song is straight fire!
The Box man these kids will never know how simple life was before the internet.
Funny how everyone laughed at Ja Rule for singing on hooks back in the day and now almost every rapper does it.
While those songs was going Multi Platinum, that's crazy right!?!
Not everyone was laughing with all them millions Ja was selling. 50 just figured a way to sway the public while the inc was going through their shit!

People are starting to realise they hated on this man for no reason he's a better all round artist then most
Facts
It's weird because it seemed like people didn't hate Ja Rule but the industry hated him
people ride waves and the wave at the time was to not F with Ja Rule because of 50 cent. I never been a wave rider so that’s never been a thing for me, ja rule was and always will be that nigga in my eyes..
Ja s a fraud and still is so what? no argument there 🤷♂️
@@stillgotyourmom dude your life is pathetic. You are on every single Murder Inc related video saying the same thing. You claim to hate him but you spend all your time on his videos, watching his interviews.
You hate a man you've never met over another man you've never met. You have serious issues.
Ja got hits.That 50 beef ain't got shit to do with me. I'ma still play his shit

@@hiphop6045 what facts you freak? 50s still in a major league just not musically while everybody invites Ja and Pirv to get fooled haha just look at the thumbs they use with just funny faces on and now over a year he still has to talk bout 50 wow 😂😂😂
@@stillgotyourmom you love Ja Rule, you can't stay off his videos. Fruity azz
Ja really deserve more respect...dude beat a fed case and got more hits than alot of peoples favorite rappers..only 5 percent of ppl go against the feds and win.
1% bro. The feds have a 99.9% conviction rate.
@@hiphop6045 Its like Freeway said: It wasnt a Murder Inc case, it was the Supreme case which involved Murder Inc as the label was seen as money laundring mashine for him. Preme got to prison so they operated successfully and you guys are just some fools that are trying to fool the world but are faking as hard as it gets. Stop it Irv Perv!
@@stillgotyourmom dummy Murder Inc had their own case and their own charges. Smh.
Preme was on a Murder case, Murder Inc was on a money laundering case, facing 20 years. It's documented dummy.
All you do is watch Murder Inc videos and hate lol. You're weird asf.
@@hiphop6045 "However, due to McGriff's reputation, the FBI soon questioned the intimacies of the affiliation with Murder Inc., culminating in a raid of the Murder Inc. offices in early 2003. McGriff faced accusations of drug trafficking while others with Murder Inc. were indicted on money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering charges.[1]"
Thx for showing us everytime how dumb MI affiliates are 😂😂 dude you r forever lost haha
@@stillgotyourmom that's literally what i just said!!! LMAO
People can make fun of Ja Rule all they want but we not gon sit here & act like he ain’t had hits
Peace Talib! I think that it's dope how you provide your guests with a safe place to tell their story without interrupting. Really dope!
Ja wasn't lying, he had a lot of love out here and Holla Holla was on fire on the radio!
New York track was really a banger and still is. It's on every list of hip hop I make.
I love when Ja said my wife is BLACK and he's been married to her for 20 years. That's dope!!!
His wife is mixed...plus why does it matter....why live by these labels....you guys are Americans....you don't hear dark jamaicans saying they are a black jamaican....or someone saying I'm.a black hatian....you guys are Americans....and you guys (as well as everyone) have a unique culture.
@@g718ny love is not an accident of romance. When you see someone for the first time you don't fall in love with them and based on your set of values and this will determine the quality of woman that you choose. People that look for certain qualities other than what they can relate to often don't want a woman that reflects that culture and have self hatred issues. I will only date a woman that is black and could be a black woman from anywhere in the world because we can all relate to oppression. I feel as though black love is like a reflection of each other
@@g718ny bullshit

Must be all that E he took!

@@env0x lol
Where was the self awareness during the 50cent beef?
@@muhammedalli19 wtf you talkinh about lol street beef homie
Appreciate Talib listening.... Lol. Nore and Fat Joe be Interupting like a Mug!!! But I like them too. Let these celebs talk. They have great stories....!
Kwa is a dope interviewer those other dudes are annoying to watch
I notice that and it's a frustrating to watch due to the interruptions about themselves or others constantly
Fat Joe and Nore suck..
@@sheritadavis9228 fat Joe will ask a question.... And then tell your story for you. Lol
the crucial and significant difference is the level of intelligence.
fat Joe snaked Cuban linkx, and he doesn't seem to be bringing in any more Latinos, I dont think he liked being outshined by pun anyway, I think hes very arrogant.
Great interview Talib and Jasmine. I was not a fan of Ja Rule but I understand his from where he came from to where he is now. It's definitely respected.
See you and appreciate you!
Ja always showed love when we came through with Fatal... Good dude. RIP FATAL
ppl love to hate Ja Rue for some reason....I wasn't big fan of Ja Rule singy songs but dude is a legend with a lot of hits. Shout out to Rule!
hits doesn’t mean quality. you a fuckin clown watching a talib video and thinking that ignorant shit.
If you listen to his albums especially the early stuff he has a ton of street records and stuff.
Here you may like this stuff he done more, mainly album songs (his best work) ua-cam.com/play/PLkJpsBwHD7vp6q8Qn8FMUH90cSOblWWFk.html
@@deveroth8871 calling someone a clown for having a opinion of a rapper??? Yall be getting outta line over shit that ain't that Serious.. Calm that bullshit down bruh
@@javonbatiste5984 lmaoo really? is “clown” really that offensive these days? it’s a totally justifiable insult. he made a silly, some might say clownish, statement. don’t be so sensitive.
I'm glad he got his opportunity to FINALLY talk his shit. Made the blueprint for Drake to take off.

There's nothing real about 50 - all fake
Ja Rule was my all time favorite and he's very charismatic
I respect Ja the man way more than 50. 50 doesn't even take care if his son and disrespects him. Ja raised all his children and was a father. From a father that's more than any song.
Ja Rule actually seems like a cool guy. I'm not too sure about 50 - he always seems like he has ulterior motives.
LOL
Yes because you personally know both of them 🙄
@@incognitojones9609 the curse of fame. That's why I'd rather be that guy behind the scenes. Lol
Exactly!!! But it’s not with Ja. Back then Ja was a deva rapper with the backing of a lot of henchmen. So if he didn’t like you. Especially with the incident in the lobby with 50 homie robing Ja for his jewelry. Ja started that beef with 50. How to rob was a classic that ruffled a lot of feathers. Every time 50 tried to show Ja respect, he shut him down. Even tho Ja got them songs in the bag. Back then, he was a simp also.
50 has to many Stan fan boys groupies
Ja is a real one! One of the most passionate and deep artists! 💯 Legend!!!
Crazy because I remember G-Unit making fun of Ja for being a Jehovah's Witness back in the day and I used to be like "ahh he's a sucker!" It's crazy how you see things when you look at it from a different perspective instead of having my G-Unit fan blinders on.
50 cent brainwashed the whole world...its amazing
Exactly bro
@@ifuknowuknow5457 nah good brotha it’s as crazy as it seems. That nigga Fif is a master at the laws of power and he knows how to spin the crowd and know how to do it. He tricked everyone but I been known those tricks if you are a certain age you’d know, we were younger back in ‘03 and a lot more naive and 50 was already a manipulator.
@@gjergjjiim1615 it backfired on him tho game D block and everyone smashed on him in reality 25 ¢ is a 🤡he only knows who to pick fights with EU tang lox game Nas should I name more all in all 25 ¢ is a horrible diss maker he only won one battle by dry snitching on murder plus they were all shook nobody didn't hear murder inc stories but no 25 ¢ has girl tendencies
Excellent interview. Thanks for letting the guest talk without unnecessary interruptions
Kweli, the space you and Jasmine have created. Thank you, great talk as always...

I love the concept of G Unit but I don’t see 50 Cent the way I see Pac,SnoopScarface,Nas etc.
He raps ordinary but blew because he is an industry artist.
@@truce6390 the man said he isn't an industry 🎨 but he is a hypercryte instead lol
Ja rule was always solid
I remember the days in middle school and high school where I was still one of the few Ja Rule fans blasting his music and proud of it!
guess u also pumped britney and good charlotte 😂
Respect, ignore trolls bro.
@@hiphop6045 Ah Irv at it again 😂
Bro I graduated hs in 03. My senior year everybody was on my head and I stood strong bumpin Rule. Fuck the bandwagon people
@@stillgotyourmom and even if he did what does that mean bruh? That don't make him no less of a man. Sit down homie
Ja needs to get his roses now. I'm a Ja fan. He is a real fan of music and a musician!
Ja Rule is a important piece in our Culture.
He is 100%.
@K9 stop hating, mr nobody and get a life maybe you can become somebody someone could talk about,love or hate.
Remember if nobody talks about you then you are nobody.so shut up and get a life and make use of your brain,if you have any,and stop having sleepless nights over someone else success whether good or bad in your eyes.
Stop hating and become somebody so that you can love yourself and then love someone else.thank me later ✌️
More like a footnote in Hip Hop history. Thanks to 50, G-Unit, and Shady/Aftermath as a whole😅😂🤣😭

Great interview!!! Such a difference when the hosts let the artists speak. We get to learn so much about the artists. Thank you for that.
Ja Rule legend!
Yo love all the interviews Talib, this is def one of the top hip hop podcasts out right now 💯🔥 Keep up the good work, and keep you & yours healthy thru these crazy days brotha ✌🏻
When is the Murda Inc Biopic coming out!? And Irv Gotti definitely needs to drop a Murda Inc reunion album Guest appearances from Dmx & Jay-Z💯💯✔
That would ALL be legendary! We're here for it!
Well Irv already signed a deal with Paramount pictures to make a Murder Inc biopic Tv series. He said there's too much story to put into a single movie, we need a whole series. So that should be after the supreme team movie which is a done deal with warner brothers.
Also Irv said they're doing a Murder Inc reunion tour when covid settles.
@@hiphop6045 as much as I’d love that don’t believe too much of what Irv has to say he’s often been exposed, he has played himself and also has been very biased and arrogant. Why you think Murda fell off? It was also Bc of Irv’s mistakes and how come Cadillac and Black Child never had albums drop? They were both hot but Irv was busy doing Exc partying and fuckin his artist like Ashanti.
@@gjergjjiim1615 you literally just said a lot of bs.
Ja definitely got humbled and lost the beef. But in the long run i actually think it probably helped him. He seem a genuine and positive dude. He's been at the top, played big shows, became a millionaire and is alive to tell the tale! That's a win.
In the streets they didn't lose though only in the eyes of the public. Numerous Gunit soldiers got killed during that beef while Ja only got punched in the face and dropped his chain without realizing it.
50s just good at manipulating the crowd. FBI dealt the k.o blow 50 only took advantage of the situation and kicked them while they were down.
When 50 saw Murder Inc he literally saw thd guy who really shot him who was head of security (not Preme) . He didn't do anything...
@@caesarbasti19 are you an idiot? Which G-Unit Peepz got killed? Seriously there are some severe dreamers out there! The only Unit member got shot and killed was with game beef and his crew but no Unit in MI beef. E money bagz got killed but that was not related to this. Else 50 is a billionair today and cld Ja get killed easly!
@@stillgotyourmom
Nah bro you don't know about the real, real street shxt. Jaja, Flip, Ice, Star and others were hit. Gunit had another street team that wasn't rapping. They were basically Smurf homies and the young bulls going at 50s enemies. He has rip tattoos all over his body from that beef. On top of that the guy who really shot 50 was head of security at Murder Inc "Sun".
50s too smart to do that. Why would he jeopardize his career to get back at his enemies? He's a smart and calculated dude. He said it himself in his audio book 50th law. All that craziness people love is pure theatrics to sell records. Behind closed doors he's calm and calculated.
@@stillgotyourmom
Stop talking about stuff you don't really know about or understand. It's deeper than rap and all the info you get is from a fans perspective.. Smh estupidos..
Smurf and Trav are two of the younger guys that really put their lives on the line to protect 50 and gave him a reputation of being fearless in the streets. He tossed them to the side once he got rich..
Damn Ja made a lot of Hip-Hop classics!!!!
The legend himself. Fuck the haters, Ja was killing it back in the day.
Salute to Talib salute to Jasmine Ja Rule is a legend I'm rockin wit rule

Gratitude!
Ja definitely deserves his flowers for his impact on hip hop in the early 00s.
Ja rule a real one , rap legend and love how he and Irv stuck by preme.
"Livin It Up" was on Rule's 3rd album "Love Is Pain" not on Rule "33:6" Talib kept saying it was on "Rule 33:6"....."Between Me & You" was on that album.
Pain is Love, you right. I was thinking the same when he said it
3:36
You can’t blame Talib for the slip .. as long as we the viewers understood what he meant
I love Talib, but when he makes the distinction that Ja is a CELEBRITY while Dave is an ARTIST, I can imagine Ja screaming inside his head, "I'm an artist too, pimp!"
Dope I was waiting on this

nore called 50 a cry baby for even starting the beef and running to the feds. Anyone who knows the background knowledge's knows there is no truth to your comment.
My favorite artist frfr y’all wanna see Rule come back it’s here nigga!!!!
My favorite part starts at 1:06:30----1:08:02. Because it's the truth.
Ja is a great rapper and person, and he is on the level of the best MC's from the east coast. Many hits , still get excited when a Ja rule song comes on.
thoughtful dude, too! Did you give this a listen?
Great interview y’all
Ja has one of the best catalogs in rap history and one of the best runs in rap history. Yall sheep let 50 make yall not admit it
Yup!! Agreed on every word.
When I was watching the Ashanti and Keyshia verzuz I was in memory lane with Ashanti's jams and Ja Rule had played a huge part of those good memories . It's all hits and Ashanti can thank Ja for her hits
He had a good run and a under rated catalog still can’t beat 50 in a top 20 versus
@@OMAR-vk9pi what song would Ja beat 50 on? I'm curious cause I can't think of one. Even though we both think 50 would kill I'm curious what jam from Jarule would win against a 50 song
Ja rule New York things gone change the wrap who shot ya holla holla just to name a few and 50 is a carbon copy of ja if it wasnt for him where would 50 be?
@@justinstewart1828 nice answer!
Yoo.. When you dropping again Ja?! We need you back man
Jarule my favorite artist
Good 25 ¢ is a clown
Ja's catalog > 50's catalog. It's simple math.

Ja is my dude!!
sus
Dissed Ja Rule, took his Style and Ran with it 🎶 🏃🏿
Great interview!💪🏾
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm mad at ALL THOSE CLOWNS who turned on RULE for no reason. They had no hate for RULE before that clown started hating on him. RULE music aged so much better than you know who anyway!!!! Put some music out tho RULE🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Jay Z described 50 cent’s movement in 03 as a tidal wave and and that’s what it was.... I guess everyone was riding the wave and turned on Ja cos 50 and Em did.
@@nmorgan24 is there an interveiw were jay z saud that were xan I find it
Peeps really need to stop clownin' on my guy Taliban. Put some respeck on his name! Sad he always gets overshadowed by Mos. He needs 💐 too!
I'm new to this show but watched a fair few and will watch many more as I LOVE the humanising, culture appreciating conversations with Talib, Jasmin and their guest.
Talib seems like such a free loving man, it's great to see.
Positive vibes, authentic stories. Much love to all.
This is one of the realest interviews. The whole explanation or interpretation of BK and Queens contribution to hip hop while acknowledging at the same time that Bronx was the cratle of hip hop was dope.
Holla Holla...it's Murda! Man that Murda Inc run is nostalgic...shit was HS for me.
I still play the track with ja rule dmx and Jay z.
" I was the chocolate nigga in this shit" Ja Rule His Catalogue is Legendary
Yoyo, great interview Talib.
You let the guest speak without cutting them off and that's awesome. Good stuff man! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Ja with the serious introspective look in the thumbnail😂😂
I respect Ja Rule a lot more now since I've grown up I listen to a lot of his music when I was a kid but I never got his side of the story of why he fell off and what happened I'm also an artist and a producer respect his love and dedication this study of the craft
Hard Knock Life Tour. One of the GOATours💯💯💯
Definitely. That tour was incredible.
Ja's life would make one hell of a movie.
Dope interview.......I love rule interviews I was 11-15 years old when he was on top and his joints bring back good memories......dope catalogue......6 feet underground underrated track!!
Come back man old school flavor is back again.
Ja did invent the term "Clap Back", which everybody's using now!
I barely here anyone say that but i feel ya
💪🏾💯✊🏾 RESPECT ⚔️ HONOR !!!
U can’t tell me nothing about 50 but Ja my dude
F 25 ........¢ who is he again
@@Jac735 your father
It's Murdaaaa
I don't believe you
Lol
Rule really understands music and writing skills none to other thats why his name should be in songwriters hall of fame but racism gone play part!!!
Salute ja and talib great interview . I always stuck up for ja . Peep my new joint called I'm from the east coastua-cam.com/video/R_3k5fV5oKg/v-deo.html
