Ja Rule's long and successful career started in 1999 with Venni Vetti Vecci, which reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 200 list and sold more than 184,000 copies in the first few months on the market. Despite being a well-known veteran in the hip- hop world, Ja Rule still loves to tour. The artist does gigs at large concert halls as well as smaller but popular venues such as the House of Blues in New Orleans. Tickets to any concert are some of the hottest around not matter what town he appears in. The rapper knows what it takes to keep his fans hopping and blends in music at these concerts from albums that date back all the way to his humble beginnings. The man's deep base voice keeps the walls rattling at whatever venue he plays; fans always get the most out of his shows.
Ja Rule has been in the music industry long enough to put out plenty of studio albums such as Vecci, Pain Is Love from 2001 and R.U.L.E. in 2004. The artist has also worked hard to get his particular sound out with an independent album, Mirror, that was released in 2009. The artist's most recent album, Pain Is Love 2, was released in 2012 as a follow-up to the original Pain Is Love. The follow-up album was the first studio album the rapper has released in eight years signaled a full-scale comeback. In 2013, the artist continued that comeback with a tour that crisscrossed the country, staging concerts on both coasts.

I didn't have a high expectation but I remember why I love this two. They had hits and hits and more hits. Awesome performance. I will pay to see them again. Very entertaining and they both look the same as 15 yrs ago.
Well my sister & I loved Ja & Ashanti growing up so when I found out about this tour the meet & greet tickets were a MUST for us. I will say they put on a great show, I won't take that away from them. But that "meet & greet," was hardly that. We paid a whole $100 or more extra for a FREAKING PICTURE! They did not meet nor greet us! Before they even came out to start the M&G, a rude staff member comes to tell us that 1. They are not signing ANYTHING 2. The pic MUST BE taken with our own phones & they must be out & ready to take the pic so we can move on. When we approached them for our picture, they didn't speak, no "Hey, how are you, what's your name, did you enjoy the show," NOTHING! Just ready to smile for the pic. & the guy taking the pic got mad bc we didn't both want to be in the middle of them, like EXCUSE ME?! I paid $100+ extra for this 1 stupid picture, I could at least take it however I want! They were just rude, unprofessional & not HUMBLE AT ALL! You would think they would be very humble seeing that they packed out the building & those ppl came to see them off the strength of their OLD MUSIC! They should be more than humble & more than kind to their fans but instead they're ripping them off over charging saying it's a meet & greet when it's just a picture! The only thing good about this was the show like I said I won't take that from them. But after seeing the way they treat their fans, we are no longer fans of them! So it's worth it if you get regular tickets & not the meet & greets.
The show started an hour and a half late and I was in the front so my feet were aching. But once Ashanti and Ja Rule came out it was all wroth it. Ja rule is so much fun to watch live and Ashanti gives you a show, she dance , sings live, and looks amazing. They both take turns on stage. At the end of the night while performing there last song they both came down to the crowd and I got to touch Ja Rules abs. My life is complete, I still can't believe how amazing the show was.
Awesome, awesome, awesome. All the hits from the early 2000s, from both artists. Great performances. No accidents or mishaps on the stage. Only complaint is that the concert was scheduled for 8pm and didn't start until 9:30pm.
I've been a fan of both Jarule and Ashanti since I was 12 years old. This was my first time seeing them live and it was so freaking amazing! I can't wait to see them again! Def worth it
Fun concert, great venue. Long time between opening act and headliners
Even though the tickets say 8 they didn't hit the stage until almost 10 but when they did the show was AMAZING! Took me back to my highschool days. Great energy, Ashanti's vocals were an A+ & Ja's smile is still contagious. For $30 tickets the show exceeded my expectations especially being in the front row!
This experience was beyond amazing my very first time seeing my idol perform EVER in concert I've been a fan since day 1 and anybody that knows me best knows this was a dream come true to see her perform live as well as meet and greet her and the family Ja is super duper fly they performed all their classic hits.... Loved it amazing epic performance can't wait to do it again.
Over all, this show was amazing because it was truely a dream come true for me. The only downfall was that the show started a 1.5hr late and there was a couple sound issues. Once they appeared all of that didn't matter anymore. I was so happy to see them after being a fan of theirs since i was 10 years old (15 years ago) I loved ASHANTI & JARULE SO MUCH COMING UP AND STILL REALLY DO! Singing along with them brought back SO many memories of my childhood. Their songs alone and together will always be classics in my book! I wanted to cry but the tears wouldn't fall. I just couldn't believe i was there, so close to them. I loved every part of the show and how it flowed and my dream really came true!!!
I enjoyed the show tremendously. It was worth the penny. I love ja rule and ashanti.
When I found out they were having another show in California I was sooo excited. I purchased tickets right on the spot and got them so quick. The concert venue was cool. There were chairs but a lot of us chose to stand. Amazing put show Ja Rule and Ashanti killed it. Unforgettable experience. Definitely throwback to the years growing up listening to them. LOVED IT.
Great sets from both artists. The stage presence and performance were tip-top for sure!!!!! Thank you Ashanti and JA RULE!!!!!! Inspired!!!!!
Concert was really good! i had a great time.. only thing i was mad about was they started the show an hour late that was annoying!!!
was a great show, i have never been abig ja rule fan but his chemistry with Ashanti is legit, my girlfriend had a blast
I enjoyed myself a lot, I'm only mad that I did not get a chance to huge them both!
Cool throwback concert. Ja had great energy. I was not ready to leave.
Both Ashanti and Ja Rule put on a fun show and performances were both great, but i love love love Ashanti! I'd missed hearing her music and looking forward to anything new from her, overall fun night!
The show was great. Def should have it every year. It was so nice to see different generations all in one place enjoying the music just like us younger generations. Naughty By Nature was hype and energetic. Ja Rule was so fine and funny. It was very nice to see him on stage again all involved with the crowd. He also did a shoutout to all late rappers too, was very deep! I can't wait til the next one!
I was very disappointed in the event. At the start there was signs of a throwback party - Roy Barboza, a smattering of 80s and 90s hip hop. But current songs were being played way too much. Naughty by Nature had a great performance where they played their hits plus a mash up of throwbacks but Ja Rule was terrible. He played every song of his that ever played on thr radio (most of it was never any good anyway), talked to the crowd about nothing for what felt like forever, and I'm pretty sure he was lip syncing. Terrible. Throwing back to the 2000s is not good enough. In a town that produced New Edition/BBD you would have thought you'd hear some classic Bobby Brown! I love 96.9 for their radio throwbacks but this event missed the mark.
