Ja Rule’s Secret Role in Murder Inc | Music News

from Music News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Ja Rule reveals he was never officially signed to Murder, Inc. — despite being the label’s public face and driving its success alongside Irv Gotti. He took Irv’s budget from $5K to $250K, turning the label profitable through hustle and vision. While Tommy Mottola helped launch the label and Irv’s brother Chris co-founded it, Ja’s real allegiance was to Murder, Inc., even though he was technically on Def Jam — echoing how artists like DMX and Jay-Z built empires outside their label’s official roster.
