He also announced the release date for his next record
In the summer 1999, Ja Rule dropped his debut studio album Venni Vetti Vecci. The Murder Inc./Def Jam release sold 184K units in its first week and debuted at the No. 3 spot on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, catapulting Ja Rule into stardom and making him one the biggest artists that era. Venni Vetti Vecci also had a number impressive features that included artists like Jay Z, Erick Sermon, Memphis Bleek, DMX, Case, Blak Child, and Ronald Isley.
It’s hard to believe that Venni Vetti Vecci came out two decades ago, but to commemorate his shining moment, Ja announced on Instagram that he’s holding a special giveaway. A select number lucky fans will receive an autographed copy every one Ja’s albums, but they have to follow his specific rules. “1. Follow @iconn_me 2.
