Turns out the bad blood all boils down to Mariah Carey's ex-husband Tommy Mottola...
Irv Gotti tells Desus and Mero,
“[Mottola] calls me because he found out me and Rule made a record with Mariah Carey. At the time, he hated Mariah Carey, so he was pumping Jennifer Lopez to compete, so he calls me and he says Irv I need you make a record with J.Lo but I want you to put Ja Rule on it and make it a duet.”
