Music News: Ja Rule hits Sydney for one show date only!

Ja Rule, the talented artist & actor is one of the most successful rappers of all time. To date, he has sold over 35 million albums worldwide and has performed in concerts to adoring fans all over the world for the last decade. He has won MTV Awards, Source Hip-Hop Awards, World Music Awards, BET Awards and been nominated for various Grammys. Sydney fans will get the rare opportunity to see the hip hop legend live when he comes to Australia for one show only on Saturday July 25th @ Big Top, Luna Park.

As the flagship artist for producer Irv Gotti’s Def Jam-affiliated Murder Inc. label, Ja Rule became one of the rap industry’s most commercially successful artists during the early 2000’s, working closely with the hitmaking producer and his stable of talent. Ja Rule established himself with “Venni Vetti Vecci” (1999), a hardcore debut album similar in style to the rugged thug rap then popularized by DMX and the Ruff Ryder collective. On his second album “Rule 3:36” (2000), he began collaborating with female R&B singers, and a string of radio-friendly hits ensued. “Pain is Love” (2001) followed the same template, serving up a few rap-R&B hybrids for the singles, and filling out the album with rap.

Throughout the summer of 2002, Ja Rule was at his most popular, featured on not only his own hits but also as a featured guest on Fat Joe’s smash hit “What’s Luv” and Mary J Blige’s “Rainy Dayz”. Near the end of the year, he released his fourth album, “The Last Temptation” (2002), which again paired him with R&B vocalists for its singles, this time with Bobby Brown and Ashanti.

2003 saw him release “Blood In My Eye”, and “R.U.L.E” was released in 2004 which featured the hit single “Wonderful”, a rap-R&B hybrid featuring R.Kelly and Ashanti. 2005 went on to see the release of “Exodus”, and 2009 “The Mirror: Reloaded”.

Ja Rule’s commercial success reaches far beyond the music studio. He has been a pitchman for Calvin Klein and Coca-Cola, and has appeared in various movies including “Fast And the Furious”, “Scary Movie 3”, “Assault on Precinct 13”, and “The Cookout”.

See Ja Rule perform all his hits including “Livin It Up”, “Always On Time”, “I’m Real”, “Thug Lovin”, “Mesmerize”, “Clap Back”, “Wonderful” and heaps more!

Tour dates are:

Saturday July 25th – Sydney, Big Top @ Luna Park Tickets from Ticketek 132 849 www.ticketek.com.au

Your most memorable Festival moment or experience?
Download in 2005. it was such a great vibe the entire day and people seemed to really get into our set

Favourite Artist you’ve seen at a Music Festival?
when I was younger all I did was listen to bad religion so when I finally got to see them on a warped tour it was life changing.

What’s your ideal Festival line-up?
4 bands, 20 minute sets, free nachos and beer

What are your tips for attending Music Festivals?
Pace yourself. When we played ozzfest in 2004 there were dudes getting kicked out for being too drunk at 11am. You bought the ticket, at least take the ride
