Ja Rule To Be Released From Prison In Gun Case

    After serving most of a two-year bid for an illegal gun case, Ja Rule was slated to leave an upstate prison today but will instead head straight into federal custody for a tax case.

    According to AP, the rapper has some time remaining on a 28-month sentence for tax evasion, as his pair of sentences were expected to run concurrently. He may now have less than six months and could be eligible for a halfway house, and is excited to get back to work so that he can pay $1.1 million in back taxes.

    “Many people are looking forward to experiencing his talent again,” said defense attorney Stacey Richman, who also noted that he’s looking forward to his daughter’s graduation. “He’s a devoted father.”

    The former Murder, Inc. star is getting out at his earliest release date. While incarcerated, he had two misbehavior reports for unauthorized phone calls in February 2012 and had work assignments on lawn and ground crews as well as participated in education programs.

    Ja Rule began serving his bid in June 2011 following an arrest that took place in New York City, New York back in 2007 outside of Beacon Theater. After pulling him over, police found a loaded semi-automatic handgun in the vehicle. In July 2011, a judge ruled that he was sentenced to two additional years for tax evasion, though he would serve each sentence concurrently.

    4. Ja Rule had some dope tracks
      Some of them was raw, others “radio friendly”
      He had a good run, until 50 destroyed his career
      Since then, Ja Rule has never been the same

      And they called him a devoted father?
      IMO a devoted father stays away from gun-charges
      That said, I wish him the best in the music business

      1. 50 Cent definitely hurt his career by pointing out how gay his sing song raps were. Then 50 Cent ruined his own career for emulating Ja Rule’s sing song raps.

    5. Prison can’t release Ja Rule. Ja Rule releases himself from prison. What Rule is about to do to the charts should come with two parental advisary stickers.

    6. Yeah nigga. Ja Rule’s coming out of prison with a vengeance. 50 Cent, Eminem and all those other pussy rappers better watch out. Rule’s gonna crush the charts and end some more careers now with his lethal hooks.

      RULE! It’s Murda!!!

      1. what’s your point?

        Sales in the music industry in general have fallen off. Nearly every artist had more sales 10 years ago than they do now.

        Let’s not pretend that 99% of rappers have a certain shelf life, that over time they’re going to lose popularity.
