You can call him Ja Rule or Jeffrey Atkins or simply inmate 07608730Q now that he has officially become state property. Rapper Ja Rule turned himself in to begin serving a two year sentence for attempted criminal possession of a weapon stemming from a 2007 incident in which cops found a loaded semi-automatic hand gun in his sports car. Ja Rule spent some private time with his wife, close friends and family members before he was taken behind closed doors. The last thing he said to everyone, according to his executive producer who was present at the New York courthouse, was “real life is a fantasy, f-ck fame, I’m ready for this to get over with. I am focused”.
