Ja Rule was born Jeffrey Atkins on February 29th 1976. He was a major rap artist in the late 90`s and early 2000`s. Ja Rule is from Queens, New York. He was associated with Irv Gotti and singer Ashanti. Ja Rule began his rap career in 1993 with a hip hop group Cash Money Click. He told Curtis Waller of MTV News that his stage name “Ja Rule” came from a friend who addressed him by that name; other friends called him “Ja”. In 1995, he made his first appearance on Mic Geronimo’s “Time to Build”, which featured Jay-Z and DMX, who were also in their early stages of their careers. In 1998 he had signed with Def Jam, and along with Amil, he was featured on Jay-Z’s hit single “Can I Get A…”, for which Ja Rule wrote the hook. It was going to be a Ja Rule solo song, until Jay-Z heard the track. Ja Rule emerged in 1999 with his single “Holla Holla”. From 1999 to 2005, Ja Rule had several hits that made the top 20 of the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart, including “Between Me and You” with Christina Milian, “I’m Real (Murder Remix)” and Ain’t It Funny with Jennifer Lopez, which both topped the US Billboard Hot 100.  Grammy-nominated #1 hits such as “Always on Time” with Ashanti, “Mesmerize” with Ashanti, and “Wonderful” with R. Kelly and Ashanti were big songs of there time. During the 2000s, Ja Rule was signed to The Inc. Records, which was formerly known as Murder Inc. and was led by Irv Gotti. Due from his hits with his fellow collaborators, Ja Rule has earned four Grammy nominations, and has earned six top-ten albums, two of which Rule 3:36 (2000) and Pain Is Love (2001), topped the US Billboard 200. He is also known for some well-publicized feuds with other rappers (in particular 50 Cent and Eminem).
