This is not just another producer-gone-rapper situation. Jermaine Dupri has been involved in all aspects of the business since day one. From his dancing days with Whodini to producing music for some of the biggest R&B and rap acts, JD has always given 100 percent to hip-hop. Now with a resume that goes back like the hairline on your grandfather, the Don Chi Chi has laid down rhymes for his own set, LIFE IN 1472.
Like most production-centered albums, LIFE IN 1472 features an overwhelming number of guest artists to keep the listener's interest going. Joined by big willie rappers such as Jay-Z on "Money Ain't A Thing" and Mase & Lil' Kim on "You Get Dealt With," Jermaine Dupri proves he can hang with some of hip-hop's strongest. Even Mariah Carey lends her vocals to the remake of the underground dance classic "Sweetheart."
Editorial Reviews
...on his LIFE IN 1472, he assumes the role of 'Don Chi Chi' and rips his kiddie-pop producer image like a hymen on prom night, creating the type of testes-grabbing songs of misogyny that a lot of guys are gonna love--behind their girlfriends' back...
Vibe (09/01/1998)
4 (out of 5) - ...JD comes across and feels the same way he does on his other projects....[T]he collaborative patchwork quilt does reflect variety...
Rap Pages (10/01/1998)
4 Stars (out of 5) - ...J.D. lays down his guaranteed sholder-bouncin', funked-out, too-lush, glittering tracks....In an era when no rap album is complete without a cornucopia of guest stars, J.D.'s long guest list still stands out...
Rolling Stone (08/06/1998)
7 (out of 10) - ...LIFE IN 1472 is an odd mixture of celebrity ego and the intelligence to know when to back up and let the pros do their thing....the grooves are...cohesive and the beats...finely woven...
