Jermaine Dupri and Nelly
will host “Atlanta’s Biggest Christmas Party,” tonight in
Atlanta, Georgia.
The event will take place
at the Dunbar Recreation Center, where the celebrity rappers will hand out over
3,000 toys.
“I feel that it’s
a must we take care of our kids,” Dupri told AllHipHop.com. “They see
more bad stuff than good and I am just happy that I can give back like this.”
Dupri said that he and Nelly
spent a combined $10,000 to purchase the toys for the 1,200 children who will
attend the event.
In related news, Dupri told
MTV that he would be executive producing a new album for his girlfriend, Janet
Jackson.
Dupri, who has placed records
on the charts consistently for almost 10-years, recently scored a #1 record
with Alicia Keys and Usher’s#### single, "My Boo."
He said that Jackson’s new
album would be out in 2005.
“We start that next
year," Dupri said. "For this record, it’s gonna be all dance…these
[younger artists] are sloppy, they don’t take it as serious as she do.”
