Since we were talking about Nelly...

and I was watching some program on VH1 about rap/some music videos, that got me to thinking...

what the fuck happened to Ja Rule?

I mean...his first two albums were (and still are) the shit. but like the last 3 were mostly garbage.

On Pain is Love, by my count, 9 out of 16 songs are passable at best. That includes a skit, a recycled Pac song, and that pop shit with J'Lo, not to mention 2 songs where he sings most of the time, so make that 4.

Then the next album, Last Temptation, 5 of 13 are passable, and 4 of those are because of the guest on the song.

Let's not bring up Blood in my Eye, which is the shittiest shit that ever shat.

I haven't have the (dis?)pleasure of listening to my copy () of his new CD, but I saw the video and the only thing that saves anything associated with that song is that Ashanti is shit hot in the video.

So, let's talk about it...what happened to Ja Rule?
