where were you when tyreese was crying broke a few years ago???

Yeah, but Ja don't got a strip mall in his backyard either.

On one hand hindsight is 20/20 and the fact of the matter is A) Ludacris is a far better actor then Ja Rule, even if it was a small role to start with Luda made that role his own. B) Ja Rule may not have been super interested in acting as career, Luda was, he took acting classes and everything, he also upped he profile when he was in Crash, which probably helped him too and it's not like Luda wasn't a big name in his own right by the 2nd FNF, Luda had what 2 or 3 platinum albums by then?

Yep. Basically begged for help.

FNF didnt pay for all that tho.

Yeah but i mean even if he was in the 2nd they still wouldn’t call him back to be in 5 since he was in jail
maybe they would’ve called him to get in fast 7 though

Thats on his dumbass... He was in the first and they wanted him for the sequel obviously his character was gonna get a little shine and added to future installments... no foresight...

ludacris was also in one or two law and order episodes and I remember thinking he was acting pretty well in them.
