I hope that this leads to a bit of a revival from Ja Rule. I'm not gonna lie, he was one of my favorite artists in the 2000s. His entire discography is still in my phone and in my mp3's on my computer. I listen to his music shamelessly everywhere.

Ja Rule might not be the most lyrical emcee, but he's a helluva performer, big projection, and hella hits. Great music with excellent features. This is a guy who was once one of the BIG THREE of New York in the late 90's, early 2000's (Jay Z, DMX, Ja Rule). He really doesn't get his credit/flowers enough, so it's great that this Verzuz exists to put spotlight these greats. And shout out to Fat Joe as well, he's another emcee who is heavily slept on, great to see him up there doing his thing as well.

[@soichampion88]

Ja actually is lyrical, he didn't feature with the big 3 for no reason. If you listen to his album cuts and not just the hits, you'll hear his real rhymes. Shit, even his big hits Ja did not slouch on the pen at all, especially compared to how low the bar is now for lyrics in rap big hits

@@NMAC27 It matters but not between Joe and Ja, maybe someone else Vs Ja, but with Joe it would've been an easy win regardless.

It was Effortless going against Joe. Like I said before, without the PERFECT EXECUTION Ja still had it in the bag effortlessly And it would be hard for anyone to go against Ja as stated by mostly everybody nobody wanted to go against him because his hits alone would've got the job done.

He was way bigger a star than them at that time. 50 was new & unknown/unproven, and Em & Dre were still building/rebuilding their reputations. Ja was the third biggest act on Def Jam behind Jay & DMX, so really the cards were stacked in his favor. The only thing he underestimated was the magnitude of Em’s star power, when combined w/ 50’s street cred, & Dre’s ability to make hits.

His early mixtape hood and gutty records were hitting me like i was back in the club in 98’

[@TypeFresh305]

I don't understand why niggas can't see this he didn't pick Ja for a Verzuz and to put his homy on the stage to try to destroy him...clearly was tryna show people that Ja ran an era of rap and should be respected as that.

[@davoshow1029]

Why y’all actin like he gave ja the respect jas getting? Ja earned it, & took it.

[@DiamondEDC]

He could've came harder, but blow him out the auditorium? No... Rule also showed hisself to be the better showman

[@lakitawashington3161]

Perfect analysis!

Bruh what 20 songs is Nore playing?

[@StayAlert_StayAlive]

@@dtc8756 Are u crazy? Nore has joints. Solo, features and shit off that CNN album are classics bro

Should’ve been Luda vs T.I. Maybe Nelly vs Ja Lox vs Hot boys Dipset vs TRU

@@toddmaek5436 you must not been around for the hot boyz

[@iprodigy6723]

@@livelifels2726 I was around for the hot boys but not enough for the lox. Mobb deep if prodigy was still here, hell even watching lox rap circles around g unit again would be entertaining. Dipset just wasn't on cue but they had the crowd popping it was good they just not as timeless as the lox

[@livelifels2726]

@@iprodigy6723 id put g unit vs the lox too. They probably would’ve blew the lox out the water cuz they got more commercial hits and they had lyrics. Banks and 50 would’ve brought a similar performance as jada imo. I also think 50 would be a whole lot more strategic than dipset was. Well dipset wasn’t strategic at all that’s why they lost. I think they were perfectly capable of putting up a way better fight if they had a plan.

[@rocko2londonrocko2london76]

A lot of people are confused, look versuz is about hits not rap lyrical n Joe don't have hits that are timeless so Joe would never have won nor matter what he comes with!!!

[@rickjames21]

He didnt play the " Go Crazy Remix"

[@mopar_keys]

HOT97 should be banned from recapping verzuz!!!! What they were saying is extremely bad for hiphop when you discredit are legends like em or not

[@christianrapper]

Only one guy was biased

[@FreshBoiRdEnt]

@@christianrapper No bull.. Shyt!!

[@zay1521]

Only reason fat Joe was over confident is because of how bad the critics r on ja rule but hit for hit ja rule was light yrs ahead of fat Joe n I’m a fat Joe fan..This new generation don’t care if u sing they don’t care if u not street they just go with ur energy n the hits..ja rule couldn’t be canceled in this era..

Man you have to watch on Patreon. It is hilarious with the music 😂loving the visuals on this though.

Dope Verzuz idea: Lloyd Banks vs Cassidy 👀 Would love to see them do a real battle though 🔥🔥🔥

[@NMAC27]

There’s a lot more NY Verzuz out there… I’d like to see Fabolous vs. Lloyd Banks 🔥🔥

[@xxlaumic]

I agree, they bending the rules too much, same way Nelly shouldn't have played Hot in here

[@SeaThemHawks]

Fab already went against jadakiss

[@xxlaumic]

@@SeaThemHawks Jadakiss did 2 Verzuz so it could still be possible

[@SeaThemHawks]

@@xxlaumic he played his solos against fab then what he had for lox against dipset he didn’t use anything twice. But to have a 3rd versus yeah wouldn’t happened just don’t see why

Big facts on the Big Pun portion cuz you know if and when Diddy do a verzuz he gonna do that for BIG
