JERMAINE DUPRI FEELS DISRESPECTED BY USHER





IN A INTERVIEW WITH VIBE JD EXPRESSED THE WAY HE FELT ABOUT USHER. SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS TROUBLE IN PARADISE FOR THIS FRIENDSHIP JD SAYS:


There was some talk that you were going to executive produce Usher’s latest album Raymond v. Raymond. Why didn’t it happen?
Well, I didn’t really want to be executive producer of Usher’s projects after Confession. Me as a producer, it’s kind of hard for me to go back into people’s projects when I gave you your biggest album ever…you sold more records than any other artist in this decade based on that album and now I have to ask you am I the executive producer of your next album? That seems disrespectful to me. 
Obviously, I’m looking at something different than everyone is looking at it whether it’s the label, the artist, management… whoever it is. I’ve had this same conversation with L.A. Reid, because I’m doing Mariah Carey’s album right now. And on her last album, I didn’t have one song on there. But I did Emancipation of Mimi and she sold more records than she sold in the last five years. What part of the game makes y’all not call me? But I’m not going to keep sticking my neck out. But I don’t feel like I’m supposed to ask to produce anymore. People are supposed to come to me and tell me that I’m the executive producer. That’s why I get more kicks working with younger artist


 IM SORRY JD BUT SOME ARTIST DON'T CALL ON YOU CAUSE EVERYTHING YOU TOUCH DOES NOT TURN TO GOLD! SORRY BUT IF AN ARTIST WANTS YOU THEN THEY WILL CALL YOU, IF YOU WANT TO WORK WITH AN ARTIST THEN YOU SHOULD REACH OUT SO THAT THEY KNOW THAT YOU WANT TO WORK WITH THEM. I FEEL NO PRODUCER IS OVER ANOTHER NO MATTER HOW MANY ALBUMS YOU HAVE SOLD. YOU STILL NEED TO BE HUMBLE AND ASK FROM NOW AND THEN. JUST MY OPINION LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK
