I'm 50yo and JD is the producer i always wanted to be. That statement in itself probably explains why I didn't like him when I first took notice. But now, the brotha is a legend. My hopes is for him is to continue to make hit songs that I enjoy to this day. Keep bagging the 3000!
I'm watching this 2 in da morning and it has me inspired to write again I haven't written a song in years and he was my favorite producer I always look up too so I'm really take this one shot at it again and make it happen
I love that they brought the Blueprint series back, but i also miss the sit down interviews where it was simple journalism at its best. Nonetheless this video is still pretty damn good
Interesting that he didn't feel respected for so long. In my eyes he always has been. I always admired his versatility. He has always been in my top 10 producers of all time.
Jermaine Dupri is no doubt one of the most underrated but successful producers of all time with the most well known artists of all time. For years I was not a fan of his out of jealousy but now have mad respect for what he’s done for the industry and built his brand into legend status on his own terms.
Love your energy J to the D! 1472 is better than Puff as Producer - Song writer in my opinion and I'm always on my Bad Boy shit. Diddy can't box with this man period!
“I’ve been telling people this everyday if you look at that Kriss Kross poster up there, Kriss Kross has on jerseys, this was in 1992. Nobody in hip-hop you can’t think of nobody else in hip-hop in ’92 that was wearing baseball jerseys, so that means after 1992 wearing baseball jerseys, football jerseys, basketball jerseys all of that came from me and Kriss Kross,” said Dupri....What about Phife?
I don't like the selection of the person asking questions. Should've got someone with knowledge of JDs career. Seems rushed and could've been wayyyy better. JD is a damn legend
ZERO@@PamelaBellOfficial But at least I have approx. $17.5 million & counting (fingers-crossed / so far, so good), much younger and never contaminated myself w/ one of The Jacksons 🙏0⃣✌
I really like this interview and have mad respect for JD’s contribution to music! Respectfully, I just wanted to point out that Q-tip from A Tribe Called Quest was rocking a baseball jersey in the Check the Rhime video, which came out before Kris Kross. And, there were other hip hop acts that wore baseball jerseys before and around the same time. Wearing baseball jerseys was a common fashion, among “everyday people,” long before ‘92. We were rocking them in ‘89/‘90, as 19/ 20 year olds.
@@mrswagg22music Actually it's a known fact that he was biting off of Another Bad Creation, who got their style and start from Michael Bivins. BBD was wearing clothes backwards (check the Poison and WBBD Boot City Remix album covers from 1990 and 1991 respectively) baseball jerseys and starter caps with the tag, along with beepers on their boot and on the other foot a sneaker, back in '91. JD even helped model TLC's style after Bell Biv DeVoe. JD is good and taking other people's style and adding his own flavor, but the jersey claim is a bit of a stretch for him to say.
oh wow! I didn't know *Babyface* words to *J.D.* motivated him to do more when he thought he was the biggest w/ that "criss cross" joint, he thought to himself to do better, to do more!

He doesn't get the recognition that he truly deserves. He has been known for having many "firsts" & a pioneer. Definitely a LEGEND!
This is THE BEST Blueprint yet! "The South got somethin' to say"
The south had something to say for more than 25 years now. I think they said it by now lol
@@joeledwards5048 bro sometimes you don’t have to comment smh
JD definitely underrated! Big up to Complex for doing this.
The JD Era was nice 🙏🏽
What do you mean cause he still doing his thing
OH MY GOSH!!! THE VIBRANCY OF THE COLORS!!! THE SWAG! THE ARTISTRY!!! #SALUTE THE gOD !💯💯💯
2 Words..About Time..
We Love you JD!!
He is underrated when mentioned as producers
What you said !
Facts so mannnnnny hits!!
He should have more money than he does for the work he has done. Something doesn’t add up!!!
@@infinitybless7132 how do you know how much money he has? Net worth isn’t a good indicator at all. He also had taxes issue at one point
Total facts
Definitely one of my personal top ones: Rick Rubin, Salaam Remi, JD, Darkchild, The Neptunes.

Blueprint is back!!
I love that they brought the Blueprint series back, but i also miss the sit down interviews where it was simple journalism at its best. Nonetheless this video is still pretty damn good
"JD" IS THE G.O.A.T. OF R&B/HIP-HOP PRODUCERS.....PERIOD!
JD deserves what he has earned and then some.
Congrats bro. One the 🐐

Been a fan of him since I was a kid. I like to see his work ethics.
Hits can happen by accident thats why never ever throw anything away that u write!!

Give him credit he was the first one who started showcasing rap stars wearing jerseys
TRUE LEGEND! LIFE IN 1472 is still my FAVORITE!!!
Legend of garbage Rap & corny R&B
@@thekongstocks I've heard that before but I definitely don't agree.
I still don’t think he gets the credit he deserves…he’s on the same level as Timberland and Dre….He’s one of the best
A face only a mother could love
good video
I never knew crisscross found Da brat
Does anyone knows where I can get those glasses ?

He took all of kris kross money 💰
He wasn't really paying them money and he used mulatto that why she turned down and 2 chain
"SoSo Def"
🌍I just love it when I get the notification that says "Someone has liked your comment" or "Someone has subscribed!" :-) ! ❤😊❤ 50 JD!
bad bunny
JD > Diddy
I wonder if Chris Kelly never became famous, if he would have went down the path of using drugs. RIP.
Nothing else to say!
Too bad he lost Janet Jackson that was the worst mistake he ever made arrogance is self destruction 💯
They got back together lol
@@syonide1878 you mean for a phot opp?
@ damn that's just like Paul Mooney yikes 😬 😳
Werz D Brat

Yawn. He wack, I'm better and richer
How many songs have you had to hit the billboard hot 100?
ZERO@@PamelaBellOfficial But at least I have approx. $17.5 million & counting (fingers-crossed / so far, so good), much younger and never contaminated myself w/ one of The Jacksons 🙏0⃣✌
@@thekongstocks well good for you. Jermaine is still a legend though
💯@@PamelaBellOfficial to herbs like you
@@thekongstocks and you don't have 17.5 million
S-O-S-O-D-E-F-M-O-B
At least ONE of everybody’s favorite songs starts with “y’all already know what this is” 😆
Once that drops you know we're about to party lol 😆

Love It‼️💪🏿

Kris Kross and So So Def “Still spending that Kris Kross cream….”
He was the mastermind behind Kris Kross...that's how!

Damn!!! What a great interview!
It's really disturbing that this video only has 70k views. Jermaine is a pioneer in the music industry. I hope one day he receives his flowers.
All these years that damn Kris Kross story in the mall sounds so made up lol
id buy his book
