Album Review

R.U.L.E. doesn't have much going for it, but it does include a few noteworthy songs: the album's lead single, "Wonderful," an R. Kelly showcase that also boasts an Ashanti feature; the album's street single, "New York," a Cool & Dre production with a pop-gangsta edge and strong raps from Fat Joe and Jadakiss; and lastly, "Life Goes On," a 2Pac-style ballad highlighted by features for Trick Daddy and Inc in-house producer Chink Santana. The album's remaining 60 minutes consist of standard-issue Ja Rule album filler: dreary pseudo-autobiographical raps that paint a conflicted portrait of Ja Rule, the paranoid pop-rap gangsta who believes himself to be a street martyr. Still, even if Ja Rule as an artist seems increasingly inauthentic with each passing album release, "Wonderful" is R.U.L.E.'s saving grace, playing like a trademark R. Kelly song, albeit one featuring Ja Rule and Ashanti.

Customer Reviews

Nah

A swing and a miss. Ja is a pop rapper and should admit it instead of getting into fights he cant possibly win. He must be mad to attack Eminem, hes not even that good of a pop rapper. New York is a great song tho, so this album gets 2 stars. Definitely not better than Nas, but at least better than Insane Clown Posse. But then, everybody is better than Insane Clown Posse.

Get off Pac nuts

You ain't pac. Your a joke, plus your from New York need I say more.
