It looks like there is no love lost between Jermaine Dupri and SOHH.com. According to SOHH Soulful’s Kevin, who at one time was JD’s boy, Jermaine flipped when he read Kevin’s review of Janet Jackson’s “Feedback” remix featuring Ciara.
On Saturday, Kevin wrote a post titled “Janet Jackson’s Ship Must Be Sinking If She Collaborated With Ciara” which prompted JD to email another SOHH blogger expressing his extreme displeasure at Kevin’s review.
JD wrote, among other things, “this is why people don’t like doing interviews with SOHH.
Well, Kevin caught wind of JD’s tantrum from the other staffer and put JD on blast calling the president of Island Urban Music “shorty.”
JD, imma fan of your work. A big fan… but lemme say this. If you are balling out of control as you say and you got everything under control as you portray… then why the hell are you spending the better part of an hour — on a late Saturday night– emailing us about a blog entry posted on a site you claim to have depleting regard for.
JD also claimed Janet hasn’t even heard the remix, to which Kevin responded, “and to say she hasn’t heard it is garbage. It’s the lead single to her 10th CD… come on!” This is all very funny to me because I thought JD had a publicist to handle these sorts of things. But knowing JD, this could also be another publicity stunt to bring attention to Janet’s album which goes on sale next month.
Def Jam chairman LA Reid hosts a private listening party for Janet in New York tomorrow. I hear both JD and SOHH Soulful’s Kevin will be in attendance. The outcome should be interesting.

Even if it is a publicity stunt for Janets album, that crap ain’t gonna sell (just like the last one). Sorry Janet, I love ya but your music has regressed in the last few years.
No publicity stunt is going to help her at this point. She’s fallen off. Such a shame.
THAT SINGLE ISN’T EVEN OFFICIAL, IF YOU HEAR IT YOU CAN TELL CIARA JUST JUMPED ON IT LIKE SOMEONE COULD DO WITH A KARAOKE MACHINE. i DON’T LIKE THAT REMIX AT ALL.
ANYWAY I’MA BIG FAN OF JANET AND DIDN’T QUITE LOVE 2O Y.O. BUT DIDN’T HATE IT BUT I LOVED DAMITA JO. WHILE THE MEDIA LOOKED DOWN ON BOTH ALBUMS, THEY WERE NOT THAT DIFFERENT FROM WHAT HER REAL FANS KNOWS, JUST DIFFERENT PRODUCERS. I LOVE THE SINGLE “FEEDBACK” BUT HATE THE VIDEO, I ALSO LOVE HER NEW 2 TRACKS THAT LEAKED FROM THE DISCIPLINE ALBUM AND CANT WAIT TIL IT DROPS.
AND ANOTHER THING JD ISN’T SUPPOSE TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH JANET’S NEW LP ANYWAY.
I was really shocked at Soulman’s venomous response. He doesn’t normally hate like that. I guess **** is resorting to desperate acts to get the site back to what it once was.
Of course Jermaine is going to stick up for his girl. He wants her to do well. I liked the song without the remix, but since the video is subpar I welcome the opportunity for a new video to be released with Janet and Lil Miss Ciara dancing their hearts out. I’d kill to see that.
I love that scarf JD is wearing! I’m dead serious.
Sandra they are bigger haters than you over at ****! They hate on everyone including you girl Monica(very bad I might add).
OH WOW
Mighty Mouse sticking his neck out for his chick. Gotta do something.
Um, hmm.JD, Janet has a mouth of her own.And if there is any Janet fans, why is her single tanking?
I’m a fan of Janet’s but that doesn’t mean I Have to like everything she puts out..I do support good music..and i’m not feeling the song..as for JD, he’d be less of a man if he didn’t speak up for his woman..as for why janet doesn’t open her mouth..maybe she’s tired of defending herself..most of us couldn’t imagine what she has to go through..let her be..Janet is an icon..she will never fall off
For all the ny giants fans check out the antonio pierce and david tyree pics on yahoo………..dayum…omgoodness
they are beautiful
That is actaully very romantic. He’s standing up for the integrity of his girl’s work. Women, we should all aspire to get a man who loves us in such a way.
