Ja Rule Mocked for Believing Michael Jordan Collects Royalties on Crying MJ Meme

Jordan Brand. The Charlotte Hornets. Hanes commercials. 

Michael Jordan receives sizable earnings from all three. 

According to Ja Rule (and his satirical source, TMZComedy), the Internet-famous Crying Jordan meme, too, belongs on that list.

"

This why I love America while we all laughing at the Jordan crying face he gets a 1$ every time it gets post. Jokes on us!!!

Obviously, the rapper was sorely mistaken. 

Using the same kind of comedic content that was created to ridicule His Airness' emotional Hall of Fame induction speech, the Twitterverse set its sights on Ja Rule.

After reviewing the multiple mocking memes, it appears the joke is squarely on the Queens, New York, native.

Someone may want to pre-emptively inform Ja Rule that he isn't owed money for every "It's murdaaaa" he shouted in a day.
