Who remembers Ja Rule? Hoarse-voiced, ghetto-fabulous, he was the reason all those J.Lo and Ashanti songs came complete with a side of gravel. Yeah, turns out he's been in prison for the past couple of years due to tax evasion and now that he's out, he wants to help his fellow man by teaching us all — wait for it — how to microwave sh*t.

The New York Post's Page Six reports that Ja Rule announced plans for a microwave cookbook last night on the SiriusXM show "Food Talk." The idea supposedly sprung from necessity. Prison food didn't taste good, so good ol' JR had to get creative, learning "to cook anything and everything in a microwave."

Lasagna and cheesecake were just two of the dishes reportedly name dropped on the show, but here's to hoping Ja has a recipe for microwaveable macarons or crème brûlée, because that would be some serious witchcraft.
