I know I'm mad late on this, but...Ja Rule used a rented house for MTV cribs?! I mean, I know rappers exagerrate about how wealthy they are, but to go on MTV with a house that's not even yours? It's one thing to do it on a song, it's quite another to misrepresent yourself on a show which is supposed to shed some light into your actual lifestyle. Damn.
I lost respect for Ja as an emcee artist around the time he started pimping the "sing for hoes and sound like the cookie monster" style of music, as articulated by 50 Cent. I lost even more respect for him when he tried to Clap Back. Now, he's even frontin about his crib? Damn, have the P.R. people gotten to every aspect of a rappers life the same way they do for Pop stars? Or is the Rule actually a pop star a la Fresh Prince?
I think me, you, 50 and Ja all know the answer to that.
This is new to me too. I know I watched a show once saying we shouldn't be fooled with some artists. Showing that Trina rented a Bentley, That some artists rented Crystal in their videos and for shows like cribs. But Ja Rule sold a gagillion records so He must be f*cked big time by Irv or Supreme for that matter.
