Q & A With Jermaine Dupri
How does it feel to be working with Jagged Edge once again?
It feels good. It feels like something that was supposed to happen. It does not feel like we ever really left [each other]. It just feels like something happened that we couldn’t be together and now it is all good.
I hear that you are releasing an autobiography called “Young, Rich and Dangerous” this fall. What should we expect?
It’s giving everyone [the] history and life story of Jermaine Dupri and how it all started out. [It’s all that] has happened and everything in between. [It also hits on] the breakout between me and Jagged and the breakup between me and Bow Wow. It’s everything that people really wanted to know.
Will there be anything that will shock us?
There might be some things that people are surprised about. But, I am not sure what people already know about me. There is some stuff in there that people will be surprised to find out.
How is Mariah’s album coming along?
Her album is finished
What is the title of it?
I don’t know the title yet.
How is Janet’s album going?
I am not dealing with Janet’s album. That is LA’s project. I am only working on Mariah and Usher right now. LA is working on Janet’s album.
