Ja Rule Who?

Kwaw Kesse, Ghana’s self proclaimed King of the Streets has described Ja Rule as a spent force with no relevance in today’s hip-hop world. “Ja Rule isn’t hot any more”, Kwaw Kesse said recently in a TV interview when he was asked about performing with Ja Rule. The two recently shared the stage at the Ghana Music Award beach party and even though Kwaw admitted that Ja Rule was able to excite the crowd, he still maintained that Ja Rule wasn’t hot. “Ghanaians are tired of Ja Rule”, he added.

The somewhat loose cannon admitted that Charter House, organisers of the Ghana Music Awards, could have brought in a more popular artist, preferably 50 Cent, Lil Wayne or Rick Ross. When asked about his relations with Ja Rule during the award festival, Kwaw said that he really wasn’t feeling Ja.

In other Ja Rule related news, the rapper has been criticised by some of his Ghanaian fans for dropping the microphone after his performance at the Ghana Music Awards. Many interpreted the act to be disrespectful but of course it is just a hip-hop thingy! Ja Rule also reportedly worked on a collabo with Tinny, one of Ghana’s young hiplife artists.

Kwaw Kesse certainly shouldn’t start anything now because he will be in the US for the American Idols finals and he would be in Ja Rule’s territory. We wouldn’t want another 50 Cent/Idris Abdulkareem situation on our hands.

    Ja Rule isn’t hot anymore? I’m sure he’s sold more music than Abodam could ever dream of selling. How rude and pointless to dis a recognized artist who travelled to Ghana to participate in one of our events instead of importing and exploiting our artists in the States. Don’t hate - Celebrate!
