Ja Rule Drops New Knicks Championship Song But Fans Don't Like It

Ja Rule may the Queens rapper celebrated the New York Knicks' first NBA championship in 53 years by releasing a new song that pays tribute to the city and its historic title run. Complete with his trademark gravelly tone, the song opens with Ja painting a picture of New York City: "34th Street, off the West Side, I see a big sign that says New Yorker / What New York got to offer? / Big cars, big money, I'm all for it / One big city boy, you know, they come short / Small states, tall order / Uptown will never be the same today as a Rich Porter." But while Ja was clearly feeling the championship spirit, many fans online weren't exactly eager to add the track to their parade playlists. As it quickly spread across social media, reactions were mixed at best, with a lot of fans questioning why the Murder Inc. hitmaker felt the need to make a new New York anthem. "Ja, New York is literally the best anthem in Ny history already you don't gotta do nothing else," one person shared on X, while another wrote: "This n*gga reaching now. Shit trash relax and enjoy the wave of I'm from New York."
