You can’t talk to a rapper’s wife without bringing up Karrine ‘Superhead’ Steffans, whose best-selling ‘Confessions of a Video Vixen' boasted of her sexual exploits with several high profile MC’s, some of whom are married with children. Aisha Atkins, 29, whose husband, Ja Rule, 30, was identified in the book, is not buying the story about the hotel room-trashing sex marathon Superhead claims she had with him. “I don’t believe what she said,” Aisha says. “I love my husband. And it’s going to take more than a broke-down b!tch to make me leave him. So there you go.” Aisha is generally not much of a talker--until you come at her with rumors about Ja Rule. Together since high school and married since 2001, she is the mother of his 3 children. She’s been holding her man down since day one. While he sold drugs and tried to get on in the rap game, Aisha worked eight-hour double shifts for $10.50 an hour at a home for the mentally ill. When she heard the rumors about her husband and Steffans, she confronted him immediately. Her husband denied any relationship, and Aisha is standing by her man. “I was 14 when I fell in love with Jeff,” says Aisha. “I lost my virginity to him. So I don’t care what other people say. This is my household, and this is my marriage.”
