Backstage Film: Ja Rule + Memphis Bleek + DMX
Straight out of the Hard Knock Life Tour era. This is an original 8x10 press photo from Backstage, Chris Fiore's 2000 Dimension Films documentary that put a camera behind the Roc-A-Fella and Ruff Ryders takeover. Two frames: Ja Rule and Memphis Bleek posted up in the halls, and a stone-faced DMX in shades. Shot by Lenny Santiago, studio-issued to promote the film. A raw slice of late-nineties New York rap history, before the world caught on. Original press release photograph in collectible condition.
