Customer Review

Earlier we heard often, Ja Rule is nothing but a poor imitation of the rap superstars DMX, who listen to similar and just barking and screaming would like its supposed role model. I too had this impression during the first, fleeting hearing one of his songs. Over time, however, it turned out that Ja Rule both versatile than is even more talented than DMX; but more on that later. His album "Venni Vetti Vecci" allowed Yes Although entry into the Olympus of rap greats, however, was not really his first work. For teenage years he had already rapped in a farce called "Cash Money clique", but only with limited success. That should change now. Having already delighted me as a guest rapper on tracks from Jay-Z, Dru Hill and TQ, I bought "Venni Vetti Vecci" without any pre-listening. It is still my favorite rap album.
Already the intro reminiscent of the marked by anguish and exhaustion singing black plantation workers who beg God for mercy, and with exactly which seems Ja Rule to compromise - suppressed and discriminated against, for a lifetime of injustice, but by no means alone. Ever is "Venni Vetti Vecci" of such an atmospheric density that can be felt directly as a listener, how much Ja Rule all things that has oppress, processed him in his life in his rap. What he has other rappers advance is, that he at the same time very fast, loud, while still can rap emotional. This property can be admired especially in the first three songs of the album, the move to a with her energetic flow from the first second in its spell. It follows the wild Party-Burner "Holla Holla", which was released as a single. At this point, the listener is restarted and the funny aspect of the album deliberately because the lyrics of Ja Rule's conditions are relatively silly and beat bubbling in a strange way to himself. At the latest at the track following is itself the final savvy that on this album a highlight chases the next - "Kill 'Em All" was recorded with Jay-Z and is a prime example of how to gangsta rap in the 21st century sounds:. Uncompromisingly tough Lyrics, superior quiet argued and backed by an original Beat The same goes for "It's Murda" where Ja Rule using DMX and Jay-Z the competition shows who has the final say. In between, loosen a few brief but witty skits on the whole; my favorite is the worship, apparently only criminals and junkies participate in the and be taught by a drunken Reverend about sex and drugs. There is also a freestyle on the phone to hear performed by Yes's former crew member Chris Black who calls from prison ...
However, Ja Rule would hardly stand out from the mass of uninspired US rapper when he no longer had to answer for than just Battle lyrics and the usual gangsta posturing. On tracks like "Race Against Time" or "Daddy's Little Baby" he impressively proves the opposite. Especially the latter is wonderfully sad but not depressed, and is perfectly complemented with a sung by Ronald Isley refrain. Here (and also in the Suicide Freestyle) shows that there is great sound if yes with his husky voice raps calm and collected, because it matches the pious texts as if it was made for - and that's what it is, he head and shoulders and especially credible brings across my mind as DMX. In addition, the beats and the whole arrangement of the album are so sophisticated and carefully produced, that one can speak of perfection quite - Perfection in rap. Hence my strong buy recommendation to all fans of really good rap who are trying primarily to understand the lyrics and put emphasis on dope beats. Ja Rule's second solo album, "Rule 3:36" is not nearly as good as its predecessor. But how could you blame him, with such a brilliant debut?
It's Murda 4 Life!
