Jermaine Dupri and Michael Mauldin: Celebrating So So Def's 20th anniversary

Dupri believes that approach gives him reason to celebrate. With the 20th anniversary concert on Feb. 23 at the FOX Theatre in Atlanta, Jermaine Dupri, Michael Mauldin and So So Def stars like Lil Jon, Da Brat, Anthony Hamilton and Kris Kross will get their victory lap.


“[This anniversary] has got a lot of different meanings,” he explains. “This concert makes me feel like, ‘Y’all have to respect me for being able to do this.’ If you don’t like me or never liked So So Def — whatever it is that you didn’t ever like; if you’re a music follower or a hip-hop follower, you gotta respect the fact that I put myself in a place where I did something that nobody else can do.


“[There will] never be another producer in Atlanta doing his anniversary concert without you thinking of me doing my anniversary concert,” he adds. “It’s putting my mark in music history in Atlanta, as well as music, period. That’s the best thing that I can be excited about.”
