Ja Rule

Date of Birth:

29-Feb-1976

Nationality:

United States

Profession:

Ja Rule is considered one of the most successful singers in the U.S. He has a musical style that combines hard core rap with heavy instruments and pop rhythms, thus making music that is not only unique, but also has a global appeal. This dynamic artist has also appeared in many movies. Raised in a strict religious household by a single mother, Ja Rule struggled for years to find his own religion - now he still professes to be spiritual but does not like religion. From a young age, music was everything he wanted to pursue - he never considered another career path. He started his music career with the band Cash Money Click but his dreams of making it big with the band fell apart when one of the band members went to jail. He is not someone who will give up, struggle hard and have the opportunity to provide the lyrics for one of Jay-Z's single albums. The success of this led to the release of his debut album 'Venni Vetti Vecci' which made him a one-night rap stardom.

QUOTES BY Ja Rule

"My role now is as an artist and as a mogul to inspire and give others opportunities."

"The rules, religion to religion that man set forth, made me shy away from religion and have my own one on one with God and cut out the middleman."

"I believe in God and a higher power. I'm still not the religious type per se because religion tore my family apart. I'm still a little scared and skeptical being one with any faith."

"Right now I'm on my God flow, you know what I mean? I got Job 1:21 tattooed on my chest."

"I think it's time that we all be there for the children, to learn from the ones who came before us, and to teach our sons and daughters to have respect for themselves. Break the cycle."

"Being incarcerated is truly very serious, and it has changed my life to such an extent that breaking the cycle has become my sole focus. Jail is definitely not cool. Education is."

"The best decision I ever made, period, was to get into the music business."

"I prayed every night that God would keep my family safe. But as far as religion goes, I feel like everyone should have their own one-on-one with God."

"I wanted to go into prison and come out a better person - mentally, physically. So, I read a lot of books, got my GED while I was in there, and worked out every day. Strong body, strong mind."

"I think it's time that we all be there for the children, to learn from the ones who came before us, and to teach our sons and daughters to have respect for themselves."

"I just like music that I can relate to, something to listen to in my car."
