I bought my Dakota in 2006. While driving it home from the lot, I wanted to check out the sound system, so I reached into my cd visor flip down thing and grabbed the first CD I could and put it in the player. Ja Rule's first album: Venni Vetti Vecci. The speakers sounded pretty good, but there was one problem... the CD wouldn't eject.
I tried at first to get the CD out using every non-invasive trick I could think of, but none worked.
Then I tried to dig the CD out with a steak knife. Didn't work.
Now I had a scratched up Ja Rule CD stuck in my CD player... for years... like until 2014 when I replaced the unit.
Once around 2010, the CD randomly ejected. It blew my mind. I thought it must have fixed itself, so I put the CD back in to replicate it. Nope. It was a one time only deal.
His beef with Fiddy, being mocked for Fast and the Furious, the Fyre festival, etc. doesn't change the fact that his first album is straight up fire.
