Jermaine Dupri Isn't Up For DJ Battle

Over the years, Jermaine Dupri and Atlanta DJ Greg Street seemed to be maaaad cool. You would see them around the ATL kicking it at functions and even hear them shouting each other out on radio. Well, those days seem over. The two have been publicly at odds since Dupri's "The DJ Is Dead" video blog a few weeks ago.

Jermaine explained himself as not dissing all DJs, just the ones who have hidden agendas and are not contributing to the advancement of the hip-hop culture. Greg's not hearing it and wants to take it the streets with "Don Chi Chi." No, obviously Street doesn't want some immature fight. He wants to battle Jermaine in a face-off behind the turntables. Tens of thousands would theoretically be going to the winner to be donated to pee-wee baseball teams in Decatur.

"We're gonna do three clubs," Street proposed of the battle. "We're gonna go to the Southside where he's from, the Eastside where his club is and the Westside: Bankhead. Best two out of three. All the money goes to charity. I'm black and ugly; he's young, fly and flashy. We'll see how much money he puts up since 'money ain't a thing.' "

"I ain't doing that," JD shrugged off about the challenge. "That's just to blow him up. Even if he loses, n---as is gonna be like, 'Yo, JD, why you battle him?' He's gonna lose. I DJ for real. He would lose, but the fact of the matter is, even him losing would gain [Greg] so much momentum. I wouldn't do that. I rock out. I been doing that before I started making records. That's how I started producing: DJing and all that. This ain't no game for me. When I heard that, I laughed that off. That's like somebody asking me 10 years ago to battle me in dancing. I would have bust anybody's ass in dancing. I'm a b-boy. That's what I am. I wish him the best, [but] I would never help him keep promoting himself by doing a battle like that."

JD just announced the signing of Q Da Kid to his new Tag label through Island Def Jam. He's also producing the entire LP of his new artist Dondria.

Greg Street recently released his mixtape Six O'Clock Worldwide.

"Me and Mannie Fresh redid [a song featured in Geico commercials]," Street said of the street CD. "We made a strip-club anthem out of it. I love Mannie Fresh. We have Blood Raw featuring Young Buck. Keri Hilson featuring Snoop Dogg. Lloyd's 'Girls Around the World.' My mixtape is great."

"The Fly Joc" is also prepping a new official LP for Interscope to be released August 26. The set is called Greg Street: Certified Worldwide. Nappy Roots' "Good Day" is the lead cut. Rick Ross, Polow Da Don, Yung Joc, T-Pain, Rich Boy and Lil Wayne are among the other hip-hop gladiators with contributions to the project.
