Jermaine Dupri: Jay Z’s New Album Might Be Finished

0

Hip-hop mogul Jermaine Dupri sat down with Rap Radar’s Elliott Wilson and Brian “B-Dot” Miller and opened up about his instant connection with his longtime friend and collaborator, Jay Z.

“Me and Jay have like, conversations that I’m sure he probably don’t have with nobody else because you know, that’s how we met each other,” said Dupri before recalling the time Jay sampled a line off Dupri’s tape. When they finally linked up in person, the connection was instant. “When we had a conversation, we sounded like two people that knew each other already.” The two later combined Dupri’s Southern sound with Jay’s Harlem style on their 1998 hit, “Money Ain’t A Thang,” which is obviously one of the best dirty South/New York rap collaboration of all time.

The two are so close that Dupri revealed he already knows the album of Jay Z’s new project. When pressed if we can expect Dupri to appear on the release, he shook his head. “I’m probably…It might be done.”
