Ja Rule and his family are no strangers to the limelight. The rapper and actor shares three children with his wife of 23 years, Aisha Atkins: Brittney, Jeffrey Jr., and Jordan. In 2019, Brittney and Jeffrey Jr. made appearances on WE tv’s Growing Up Hip Hop: New York. Before the show aired that fall, the “Mesmerize” hitmaker spoke with PEOPLE Now about his experience as a parent. I want my kids to run to me, not from me,” Ja Rule shared, emphasizing that no topic is off-limits for discussion. “And I tell them all the time, it’s three people in the world you cannot lie to… your doctor, your lawyer, and me, good old dad.

Brittney Asja Atkins, 29 years old

Ja Rule’s eldest child, Brittney, was born on September 22, 1995. During her appearance on Growing Up Hip Hop: New York, Brittney shared how some people have tried to use her to get closer to her famous father. You just have to pay attention to people’s characteristics,” she told Access Hollywood when asked how she handles it. When I meet people, if they’re not genuinely interested in getting to know me and are asking about my dad right away, that’s a red flag.”Reflecting on her upbringing, Brittney explained, “Growing up as Ja Rule’s daughter was definitely different—I wouldn’t say difficult. It had its ups and downs.”

Jeffrey Atkins Jr., 25 years old

Jeffrey Atkins Jr. was born in 2000. Like his older sister, Jeffrey appeared on Growing Up Hip Hop: New York. “I want to share my story because I think it’s cool and unique,” he said in a 2019 promotional clip for the show.

As of August 2024, he has over 44,000 followers on Instagram and has released an album titled The World Ends with Sin in 2022, along with several singles in 2021 and 2022, according to Spotify.

Jordan Atkins, 21 years old

Ja Rule and Aisha welcomed their third child, Jordan, on April 6, 2003. Jordan frequently shares comedic skits on his TikTok account, @mealyworld. One of his clips, which has garnered over 71,000 views, humorously compares watching Euphoria alone to when someone else enters the room. Although he didn’t appear on Growing Up Hip Hop: New York, Jordan has joined his family at public events, including the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards on August 28, where the Atkins family of five coordinated in stylish black outfits.
