More on Jermaine Dupri
Description from Wikipedia:
Jermaine Dupri, also known as JD, (born September 23 1972) , is an American record producer, rapper and Grammy winning songwriter. He is also known as Bow Wow's mentor. ==Music career==
Dupri has pursued a recording career of his own resulting in hits such as "Money Ain't a Thang" (1998, with Jay-Z), "Welcome to Atlanta" (2001, with Ludacris), "It's like That" (2005, with Mariah Carey), "Get Ur Head Out Your Ass Playboy" (2000, with Shade Sheist), and "Gotta Getcha" featuring Johnta Austin.
He became involved in a dispute against Eminem and Dr. Dre in 2002. This beef is mainly between Dr Dre and Jermaine Dupri, but Eminem has stuck up for Dre, and along with Xzibit, joined the beef against Jermaine Dupri. It all started when Jermaine Dupri claimed that he was the best producer in the game, claiming he was better than Dre and Timbaland during an interview with XXL magazine. Dre retaliated in Eminem's song, "Say What You Say", saying: "Been here longer than anyone in the game And I ain't got to lie about my age (But what about Jermaine?) F**k Jermaine! He don't belong speakin mine or Timbaland's name And don't think, I don't read your lil' interviews, and see what you're sayin I'm a giant, and I ain't gotta move 'til I'm provoked When I see you I'ma step on you and not even know it You midget, Mini-Me with a bunch of little Mini-Yous runnin around your backyard swimmin pools Over 80 million records sold And I ain't have to do it with ten or eleven-year-olds." At the end of the song, Timbaland can be heard saying "Yo, this's Timbaland. Tell him I said 'suck my dick'"
Dupri also worked on various other Mariah Carey songs including My All Stay Awhile in 1998 and Always Be My Baby in 1996.
