Rapper and actor Ja Rulehas recently shared his opinion on rap beefs past and present, and claims that certain MCs are using the whole ‘diss track’ thing to sell albums. Ja Rule also touched on the fact that his own personal rap beefs have been real and ended up in actual physical altercation.

Ja Rule said in a recent interview: "I think the beef sh*t is wack. My beef was different, it was real. Physical altercations, all that. A lot of these beefs today, are just publicity stunts for artists to try to sell records. They try to further their careers or whatever, doing so by creating conflict with other artists who are creating a buzz. I think it's watered down hip-hop."

He added: "Even though hip-hop was founded on the battle, it came from that. It's still, with how far hip-hop has come, the beef records take away from the talent and the creative process of it all. I just think all the beef records and that sh*t is wack."
