How did Ja Rule and Ana Navarro meet?
Wait, have you ever had sex to your music? A few times. Really? Yeah.
Do you sing along? A few times.
Just like a podcast. I hope you enjoy it. Guys, a little interactive. If you have any questions, jump up. Not on stage, but let us know. I will be making jerk chicken sandwiches for Anna and Ja. I am a huge fan of Ja Rules, and I have so much to learn from Anna. Oh, you have no idea, buddy. I've had sex to your music. Oh, cool. We're going to do that. I like that. I like that. Boom, boom, boom, boom!
What's good, man? Perfect. How are you, man? You good? Yes, sir.
Yes, sir. So, Ja, you brought your liquor out with you, right?
I did. I brought my new whiskey with me. We going to make a couple of drinks, you know? Yeah. Oh, we got some drinkers out there. OK. OK.
So now, you have a whiskey, right?
Yes, I have a whiskey. And you have a vodka.
I do have a vodka. Yes. Thank you, sir. Yes, yes.
I hired him.
What made you choose whiskey out of curiosity?
Oh, man. It's a long story.
What are Ja Rule's thoughts on his whiskey investment?
I'll tell the short version. During COVID, I was doing a lot of crazy investments.
And so... I want to know what a Ja Rule crazy investment is.
So... Is this my mic doing this crazy stuff? So, yeah. So crazy investments would probably feel like... I was doing a lot of... Crypto stuff, NFT stuff.
In the beginning?
Yes, yes, yes. You made money. I did. I made some good money on it. I made some good money on it. But this came across our desk. It was a whiskey DAO. So anybody that knows anything about the crypto space, a DAO is a decentralized autonomous organization that was... It's a nuts thing. It's like everybody has voting rights to the company. And so everything that you vote on Everybody has to vote. So if we wanted to change, I don't know, the name of the company, everybody had to vote.
It's like the Green Bay Packers.
It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. So anyway. Sounds like a condo board. So anyway, we bought this warehouse full of whiskey. And our plan was to sell it. With your crypto money? No, no. We bought it with real money. We wanted real money. Actually, no. We did buy it with crypto money. Are you serious? We did buy it. We bought it with Ethereum. We bought it with Ethereum. And it was just a flip move. We were going to, you know, wait till we got to a seven-year period and then sell it at a premium, as a premium bourbon. But we had better plans once it got to our seven-year period and we started a company. So here we are.
So you've had this for seven years?
No, this has been for a year and a half now.
Year and a half. I got to be honest with you, Anna, how long have you known Ja?
What is the significance of Challah bread in the conversation?
No, musically, not just... Oh, no, musically, forever.
And he's, I got to tell you something, he's looking as good as he has. Oh, thank you, Anne. I saw him show up at that, with J-Lo at that residency. You looked fine as fuck. Oh, thank you. In his little, tight little tuxedo pants. I don't know how you could even dance in them. Undone bow tie.
I mean... I was on my rat pack vibe that night.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Black don't crack, but you don't age. Thank you. You look 15 still.
Well, I wish you could tell that to my bones and my joints. Because I get up with all kind of aches and pains and stuff, man. Turning 50's been a different... Wait, can you talk for a second?
You're the first person I've ever met in my life that was born on a leap year.
Yes.
And what's even crazier, you're the first person I've ever met born on a leap year as a Jehovah's Witness who didn't get to celebrate birthdays. What the fuck? How much more regrets can one black man be?
It kind of worked out, right? Because I didn't get a birthday every four years anyway, so it didn't matter. But yeah, this is a crazy birthday that I have. I made up a new thing. So... Out of the three years that I don't have a birthday, I just pick and choose whenever I want to celebrate it. So, like, this year, I'm gonna celebrate some time in late March and go golfing or something. I don't know.
What unique recipes are shared during the episode?
You golf? I golf. Why can't we celebrate now? I golf, man. I'm going to play Pebble Beach in a couple of weeks and enjoy my life. Spyglass, you know?
