The wait for a joint album between former Murder Inc. powerhouses Ashanti and Ja Rule may soon be over.
One day after Ja Rule offered praise to Beyoncé and JAY-Z for their (DX-certified 5.0) EVERYTHING IS LOVE album, and suggested he and Ashanti should also put out a joint album, Ashanti confirmed the duo is going to “make it happen.”
“We’re gonna carve out the time and make it happen,” Ashanti said during an interview with Entertainment Tonight on the BET Awards red carpet on Sunday (June 24). “It’s so funny because we’ve been talking about that for so long, but I think now he’s like ‘OK, now it’s time to do it.'”
Although Ja and Ashanti have never released a joint album with one another, the pair has appeared on several hit songs together, including “Mesmerize” and “Always On Time.”
In his social media post from over the weekend, Ja celebrated EVERYTHING IS LOVE.
“Iconnic… The Carters… New album is dope!!! @ashanti I think we should do one of these joint albums haha,” Ja Rule tweeted on June 23.

Thank youuuuuu
No. Fuck that bs. He waits til banks leaves the unit to make a move cuz he know how they get down. Trash ass rule
Banks and 50 still cool though so if shit went down I’m sure the PLK would still get involved
Who cares? Ashanti was so average and ja rule rapped like his stomach hurt.
This doesn’t need to happen. By the way Ashanti has to have the record for most space between her top lip, and her nose.
I CAN KISS YOU BABY BABABAAAAAY
THIS WOULD’VE BEEN GREAT…………………………IN 2002
Even then they were trash.
“We’re gonna carve out the time and make it happen” … LOL She said this like they actually have careers and are too busy to just do it
Didn’t think Ja still made music…
Ja Rule? This is the rapper which had been flexin in Mtv Cribs in rented house? The one whose was destroyed by 50?
This is about 17 years too late to be relevant what a shame
Most definitely, they had good chemistry and dope hits, always on time, and down ass chic with Chalie still gives me goosebumps.
I cant lie,this may be hot. Refreshing to hear some 00’s style music. Im sure a song or two will be hot on the radio or chart if production is right. They were a good combination on a track. Ja aint no slouch with verses. Ashanti is Ashanti. Fuck what ya’ll talkin about.
I think they should do it, but nowadays they better have great production
HOLLLLLAAAARRRRRRRR! – Ja Rule voice*
Ja better than Jay
Ashanti still fine, no one has wifed her up? smh
