On one side: I'm surprised to see Ja Rule drop this app right after all the Fyre Festival controversy.
On the other side: Now might be the best time to launch while he and Fyre Festival are top of mind.
As @jasonnellis mentioned on Twitter, I dont believe this is a different app. This is the Fyre app rebranded and unless rev is going to making amends to everyone they screwed -- bye.
I agree with you. If this is associated and part of that mess, it should accountable for those damages. The idea itself seems good, but the way everything got tangled up is not.

How in the hell did Ja Rule escape the Fyre controversy unscathed? Better yet, what kinda crack is he smoking to try it again with this? Can I pay for bookings with my Magnesis card?

And it so happens that Ja Rule is the only testimonial on the Talent Application page (http://iconn.me/talent-application/)...
"Iconn changed my entire game - no more shady deals! Promoters can book and pay me directly through the platform." -- Ja Rule
Reviewing one's own service as a happy customer is just so funny and unconvincing!

Hours and hours of dev time and design were spent inside the Fyre app, sure, and this an attempt to salvage it. Time will tell how this whole thing unfolds. Who knows, maybe we'll have two more documentaries to watch. Good luck Ja!
Pros:
Music
Cons:
The name of the app is "Iconn" with S.K.A.M artists - think about it. aaaand there we go.

Honestly, I feel like Ja Rule just wants to be relevant again: this "talent" booking app is probably just a link to his calendar :P
