American hip-hop artist Ja Rule, whose real name is Jeffrey Atkins, will perform in Israel for the first time in his career. The one-time concert is scheduled for October 29 at the AMPi MAX venue in Rishon LeZion. Ja Rule, a rapper, singer, songwriter, and actor from Queens, New York, rose to prominence in the early 2000s, becoming a leading figure in the American hip-hop scene.
He is particularly known for his hit songs and collaborations from that era, including "Always on Time" with Ashanti, and work with artists like Jennifer Lopez, Christina Milian, Lil' Mo, and Case. His songs "I'm Real (Murder Remix)" and "Ain't It Funny" featuring Jennifer Lopez both reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
