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”)

50 sux, he’s a snitch, his songs r so fucked up (window shooper, candy shop, jus a lil bit). It sounds like R and B nd 50 aint no gangsta, he dosent do shit, hes just big talk nd da only ppl i know dat like 50 r hos, so all u 50 lovers r hos. Ja’s a king, its murda 4 life. Therz no way 50 can put up a track dats half as good as clap back or new york, 50 jus likes beefin wit otha rappers (Nas, Shyne, Cassidy, Jadakiss, Fat Joe) nd many more. U gonna get killed verbally and physcially and em and dre r gonna bury u and ur fake ass click. Im outta here.

i mean...ja rule is just wack #1, and 50 isn’t that good either, his flow is not bad, but i’d still rather listen to 50’s songs rather than hear that midgets voice.straightup.The exodus album prolly one of the worst "greatest hits" in a while

As huge a Ja Rule fan as I am, I am more suprised that he would put out a "greatest hits" cd. Considering 50(10 nickels)Cent’s pursuit of vitamin water and gay-unit clothing what more could a rapper ask for to use to attack 50. Why not go after Game through his friendship with Suge Knight and get on wax hammering Fitty the Snitch ? Personally, I think Ja could take it back from 50 if we can get these radio stations to stop spinning Five-0 Fitty-Five times a day. Seriously CandyShop ? No doubt Em only keeps 50 around is for the money, otherwise no one would want a thing to do with this fake bubblegum rapper. Or maybe Ja and everyone else has come to accept that there is no point battling with 50 since the whole underground already lost all respect for Fitty the Snitch. Its all vitamin water and sneakers for Gay-Unit.
