Ja Rule
Album: Exodus
Release Date: Dec 6th, 2005
Label: Def Jam

Straight outta Hollis, multi-platinum The Inc./Def Jam recording artist and certified box office sensation Ja Rule has been at the epicenter of hardcore hip-hop’s entry into the mainstream over the last half-dozen tumultuous years. Ja Rule’s long-distance run is collected for the first time in his career on his 7th album, EXODUS, a newly-compiled 19-track anthology spanning 1999-2005, scheduled for December 6th release.

The title tunes “Exodus (Intro)” and “Exodus (Outro)” – new, previously unreleased tracks (co-written by Ja Rule and produced by Seven Aurelius for 7th Sign & Irv Gotti for Top Dawg Productions, Inc.) – open and close the album. EXODUS includes a third previously unreleased track, “Me” (co-written by Ja Rule and produced by Arizona Slim and Irv Gotti for Top Dawg Productions, Inc.).

At the heart of EXODUS are the hit singles and tracks covering every year of Ja Rule’s success – starting with “Holla Holla,” his first breakthrough #2 Rap single of 1999, and “Put It on Me” (feat. Vita), his first #1 entry on the Rhythmic Top 40 chart the following year. Over the next four years, Ja Rule amassed an astounding track record of collaborations with the biggest names in pop, R&B and hip-hop as he rode the top of the charts with (among others) “I Cry” (feat¬ur¬ing Lil’ Mo), “Livin’ it Up” (feat¬ur¬ing Case), “Always On Time” (feat¬ur¬ing Ashanti), “Thug Lovin’” (feat¬ur¬ing Bobby Brown), “Mesmerize” (feat¬ur¬ing Ashanti), “New York” (feat¬ur¬ing Fat Joe & Jadakiss), and “Wonderful” (feat¬ur¬ing R. Kelly & Ashanti). Other guests include DMX & Jay-Z (on “It’s Murda”); J-Lo & Caddillac Tah (on “Ain’t It Funny”); and Ron Isley aka Mr. Biggs (on “Daddy’s Little Baby”)
