Ja won last night

But let's not go overboard. I hear talks of people saying he would beat 50 in a vs battle. Ja took us back last night but let's not go crazy he would lose to 50 on a live stage battle.

 

it's probably closer than you think.

Also it depends on what's played, when.

They would both concentrate with shyt at their peaks, so we probably wouldn't get shyt passed 2007

 

This is not a unique opinion. shyt coulda stayed in the main thread

 

There's a thread on this battle already.

 

What Ja Gonna play after Wanksta/Back down. Them nikkaz scarred for life. Internet would clown the shyt out of Ja after all them GUnit diss records pop back out.

 

50 would smoke him

Ja is a great performer though

 

Water is wet. Ja was the biggest artist in the world one time, he’s got hip hop classics along with mainstream success. Yesterday showed how much hits he had.

 

What happened is we tend to overrate Fat Joe, lol, that's really what was clear last night. Say what you want about Ja Rule, but at one time he was a factor out here for real for real, he was really doing his thing and selling triple platinum consecutively and shaking shyt up. Has Fat Joe ever even went platinum? I'm serious, lol. I honestly don't even know if he's went Gold more than maybe once.

It "feels" like he's a big dog but he's really not at all and never was, he is strictly a "feature" dude, whether someone is letting him be featured on their hit or whether he has a big dog stealing the show on his record. He's basically French Montana...I made a thread about this not too long ago and yall shytted on the kid and proclaimed your love for Fat Joe and his resume...I feel vindicated.

 

I think the same would've happened to 50 in front of the same crowd.

 

Fat Joe has gone platinum. Now we're starting to put too much emphasis on these verzus battles like it's the final measure of an artist's catalogue.

 

think JOSE is the only album that went plat...thanks to Ja/What's Luv

 

I'm pretty sure you're right.

 

You sure? I'm not saying he hasn't...but I wasn't sure if he has before. That's the problem...he was never a superstar ever.

I agree with that Verzuz shyt, lol, we carry it like it's the end for an artist when they "lose" a Verzuz battle. It's just an "in the moment" thing though, shyt aint that serious. If Fab/the Dips drop some fire tomorrow we all checkin for it.. Joe got some bangers and in like 3-4 days no one will care about this anymore and we'll be back to giving him his flowers.

 

Jose went platinum off the strength of 'What's luv'
