Ja Rule Agrees With Charleston White That Hip Hop Is To Be Blamed For Ja Morant’s Behavior

Ja Rule agrees with Charleston White that Hip Hop is to blame for Ja Morant’s behavior that led to his suspension.

“It’s crazy to say this but Charleston White was absolutely correct,” Ja Rule told TMZ.

“The music we listen to and how that is the new brand. The music say I keep pipe, I do this and I do that. That turns into, ‘I need a pipe.’ A pipe meaning gun,” he continued.

Morant has been suspended for 8 games for flashing a gun in a nightclub. He says it wasn’t even his weapon.

“You know, Hip Hop is very influential,” Rule said. “I’ve done things in my youth because of Hip Hop. Ya know, Redman made ‘How To Roll A Blunt,’ we started smoking blunts. Snoop made ‘Gin & Juice,’ we started drinking gin and juice. So Hip Hop is influential; I’m not gonna say it’s not. How far people take it is what it is.”

However, Ja Morant said he was only trying to feel ‘free’ and ‘escape’. “The gun wasn’t mine. It’s not who I am. I don’t condone any type of violence, but I take full responsibility for my actions,” he said.

I’ve made a bad mistake. I can see the image that I’ve painted over myself with my recent mistakes. In the future I’m gonna show everybody who Ja really is, what I’m about and change this narrative.”
