Irv Gotti's passing continues to weigh heavily on his fans and those who were closest to him. This includes Ja Rule, who opened up about the impact of the Murder Inc. founder's death during a recent appearance on The Breakfast Club. While he finds comfort in knowing that his late friend lived his life to the fullest, he admits that the unexpected loss was painful, as he remembers it all happening so fast.
"I felt he was getting better," he explained. "Something happened, I think he had like a mini-stroke, and went back to see the doctor. And then it just kind of, his health just started kind of deteriorating from there. And it just kind of happened fast, and I'm like 'God damn.' But again, it puts things in perspective. It puts life in perspective, it puts health in perspective, it puts money in perspective."

He went on, claiming that while he's not looking to start any problems, he's willing to end them if necessary.
