In a recent interview with Billboard, Jermaine Dupri discuss the future of So So Def Records and his watch collection Nu Pop Movement.

So So Def is independent now. The brand is worldwide and for the things I want to do and the places I want to take my artists, I don’t have to have major-label backing anymore. Right now I want to help introduce my first female artist in a long time: Dondria. I found her on YouTube and on Nov. 23 I’m putting her first single out titled “You’re the One.” I’m very excited about her project. We also have [producer/songwriter] Johnta Austin’s album coming soon after.

I have a new watch, Nu Pop Movement, available now. I started this company with Pascal Mouawad and it’s inspired by pop music. Mouawad came to me with the idea. He already had a luxury line of watches with diamonds, and although people always used to think of me as the flashy money guy, I felt like I wanted to do something else. So, we’re starting with a digital watch with a big face and loud colors that runs for about $150. It’s in the same neighborhood of G-Shock and Swatch watches.

Ashanti x Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Ashanti makes a special guest appearance on ABC’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” which will be aired sometime next year. She’s been doing a lot of philanthropic work as of late and continues the push with the guest spot on the show. Xzibit was a guest host for the show back in October as ABC continues to drive the AAA (Adult African-American) demo to the show.

After all the hype, the long awaited Beyonce and Lady Gaga music video is here. Get ready for some strange ass costumes and plenty of booty.

UPDATE: So we stand corrected…the producers and director of the Flavor Flav Doritos commercial just reached out to us and confirmed that Flavor Flav DID NOT enter the contest. Rather, he helped out two guys with their video submission. So the rumors out there are not true…Flavor Flav did not enter the contest himself and had nothing to do with the producing or directing of it. Check the video here.

Flavor Flav x Doritos. No…Flavor Flav is not getting paid endorsement money by Doritos to hype their annual “Crash The Super Bowl” video contest where the winning video gets $1 million. Flavor Flav actually has ENTERED the contest and has submitted his own video in hopes of winning some of that prize money.

I guess that $183K he owes in back taxes is getting hard to find. “He did this totally randomly and unprovoked,” says a source at the company. “And it’s actually pretty damn good.” Good enough to win $1 million? Next we going to have rappers trying to win McDonald’s Monopoly. Via: NY Post

Lil Wayne teams up with Shakira for her latest single “Give It Up To Me.”
