Two weeks after Ja Rule's new track, now officially titled "Crown," hit the streets, particulars about his next project are still scarce. Def Jam has, however, revealed two major details: The release date is set for November 4, and the record, which was originally slated to be an EP, has been expanded into a full-length LP.
Ja's representatives say the album will be named Blood in My Eye, which is a tribute to one of Rule's favorite books, a tome of the same name by activist George L. Jackson. Jackson was killed in San Quentin State Prison in 1971, a few days after he finished writing the book.
Rule still hasn't picked his first single, but two cuts are in the running, according to his label: the aforementioned "Crown" (see "Ja Disses Detractors, Feds And Jacksons On EP's Likely First Single") and another track called "Clap Back."
