Jermaine Dupri

A Million Dollars Ain’t Nothin. Let Me See You Do It Again.

Diddy says his road to riches story is still being played out; Jay-Z’s rumored to have finished his Black book but is now leery about telling all of his business; so who’s the first of the new school hip-hop moguls to release their autobiography? Umm, the first of the new school hip-hop moguls, Jermaine Dupri. [Relax Russell. I have both of your books. You’re old school mogul. Which is a good thing]

On October 16th, Jermaine Dupri’s “Young, Rich, and Dangerous: The Making of a Music Mogul” slides on bookshelves. Last night he sat down to talk with The Big Idea guy, Donny Deutsch, to do the big promote. There was little said about the book itself, The Big Idea is more about how the rich and soon-to-be-rich entrepreneurs paved the first steps to their success.

Jermaine did talk about how he snatched up two kids from the mall, put their clothes on backwards and effectively JUMP started his career.

One of the things you may not know about Jermaine Dupri is that Babyface taught him how to be consistently successful. There’s a bigger story behind this, but Babyface essentially told him to look at everything he does as being no big deal. So what you sold a million, banked 10 more, let me see you do it again. If not, what you did was a fluke.

Proving that he’s no fluke is what keeps Jermaine on his toes to this day.

This is a business show, but Donny Deutsch couldn’t resist asking about his relationship with Janet Jackson. Jermaine started shifting in his chair, you can tell he wish he hadn’t. There was a big Jermaine and Janet picture on the studio monitor.. haha.. but he gave him a good answer.

anche gli utlimi seecrnshot sembrano confermare le impressioni fin qui maturate: eccellente realizzazione dei nemici (sia per design che per modellazione), ottimi anche gli effetti particellari, gli shader e l’illuminazione in generale mentre le ambientazione sembrano scarsamente ispirate artisticamente e, tuttosommato, molto povere per poligoni e texture (ma sembra non ci sia ombra di aliasing).se manterranno la fludit all’altezza di quanto visto nei video, credo che visivamente dovrebbe rendere pi di quando non avvenga con immagini statiche. attendo con molto ottimismo questo gioco, l’apetto grafico mi interessa fino ad un certo punto (purch la machina sia sfruttata a dovere, come sembra avvenga in questo caso) mentre mi aspetto una elevata giocabilit . rimane solo un rimpianto: se high voltage, che   comunque una casa minore e con ridotte capacit d’investimento,  riuscita ad ottenre questi risultati, ci avessero provato capcom o ea, minchia, che gioco usciva fuori!
