Ja Rule has announced plans to make his rap comeback with the upcoming release of Venni Vetti Vecci 2010 and stressed that he only needs a record label for distribution.
Naming his new album after his 1999 debut, Rule said his return was based on the love of music, not profits.
"I'm trying to take it up a notch, something a little more different," Rule said about Venni Vetti Vecci 2010. "Maybe I can have some of these spaces in time where -- this album, I really wanna make this album for the people, for the public so they can enjoy. This album's not about, we ain't getting money off rap records like we used to. So when I'm doing it now, it ain't for the money. It's for the love because it ain't out there like that. You can ask any rap artist out there that's doing it, the record business is not what it used to be so when you see artists like myself -- I do it for the love...I got a couple of companies that want the job [laughs] which is not a tough job, because it's only distribution and marketing, promoting. We finalizing the deal now and it should all be done within the next couple of weeks. It's funny because I like to call myself majorally independent, however you wanna put it. Because whether I go with a major or go independent, I'm only asking for distribution. I don't want people to do much more than that part because right now is the time to hold on to your sh*t...It's time for the artists to take control of their own sh*t, own their own music, own their own masters so you have control of your ring tones, you have control of all your viral stuff on the Internet."

Song writing was never the issue with Ja, it was more how he sung or rapped them that people had a problem with.
-
He needs 'New York, New York' shit.
-
looking forward to this.
-
People forget that before he became a pop star ja was a decent rapper.His first album is dope.
-
So then "The Mirror" isn't coming out officially?

nah he officially leaked it a month or two ago so i think its safe he is putting it behind him.
-
These 3 records still fuckin good (better than all the shit released by 50 cent after his debut album)

Damn that's a real shame.

Ja's old shit was definitely better than his popish stuff, but the funny thing is, those ashanti and jlo tracks that people used to clown on him for were way better than most shit on the radio these days
-
Isn't this his 967th attempt to relaunch his career? No offense to Ja Rule but shouldn't he already realize that no one wants to hear him rap if people come to his own shows just to throw rocks at him?

There is truth in that statement. I'll still put Ja Rule on rotation, unlike 50. I feel like I'm doing hip-hop wrong if I even think about playing his shit.
I will definately get this album if/when it drops.

no doubt

It's not really new but it's usually a sign that their debut won't come out, unless it actually sells a lot of units.
Take for example:
Spider Loc - West Kept Secret: The Prequel, Da 1 U Love 2 Hate
Ca$his - The County Hound EP
Rare occasion:
Drake - So Far Gone
As for Ja Rule, if he sounds like he did on New York I'll check it out.

I haven't even heard anything from The Mirror...yet I found the above statement so true. :sshh:

I don't see how "Venni Vetti Vecci 2010" qualifies as a prequel.

pretty sure he meant sequel ;)

i no Ja couldnt come back in the UK cause most of the people I know refuse to listen to him. I still bump NY and some of his rnb songs were cool but his catting of 2Pac was a bit much.
