from the age of 16, Ja (taken from his initials Jeff Atkins) made his
first vocal appearance on Mic Geronimo's 1995's "Time To
Build," the B-side to Mic Geronimo's "Masta I.C." The
track's producer and fellow Hollis, Queens, neighbor, Irv Gotti heard of
Ja Rule from around the way and immediately enlisted his
services. Building from the strength of his debut appearance, Ja and two
friends, collectively known as "The Cash Money Click" signed
an album deal with Blunt/TVT Records. Their first and only single, '95's
"Get The Fortune," b/w "For My Click" saw rotation
on New York's Hot 97.
