Watch: Usher, Monica & Jay-Z Perform At ‘So So Def 20th Anniversary’ Bash / Mariah Carey Makes Appearance

Published: Sunday 24th Feb 2013 by Sam

When we interviewed Jermaine Dupri earlier this month, the hitmaker stressed that he’d be pulling out all the stops for the 20th anniversary of his So So Def imprint. And, oh was the he not lying.

Last night’s show at the Fox Theater in Atlanta saw the likes of Usher, Monica, Jay-Z, Ludacris perform, while Mariah Carey made a surprise appearance at the sell-out gig.

Watch a who’s who of Urban music celebrate with JD after the jump…

    Da Brat mentioned on Facebook that she wanted to ask Mariah Carey & Tyrese to come out with her and i guess she was able to bring MC. I really hope this concert gets released to DVD! I hope INOJ, Ghost Town DJ’s, KP & Envyi, Kriss Kross all performed.

  19. pat February 24, 2013

    I am sorry but Rihanna has sold her soul ever since joining to Jay-Z’s record label, they call themselves the Rockerfellas I know its their clothing label, but who were the Rockerfellas? I think you need to do some research. Her hit single ‘Umbrella’ was penned originally for Britney Spears she refused to record after its hidden meaning and lyrics and her Christian faith. I am referring to under my Umberalla-ellah-allah under being symbolic of no Ellah which in Hebrew means God and Allah in Islam also means the same and she chants this several times. There is also a video of Rihanna confirming there is a deep hidden meaning to the song on youtube.

    Beyonce has also since her debut sold her soul to the freemasons now she is just simply a puppet for them, I am certain they forced her to get rid of baby weight within 4 months to take centre stage to not lose her importance and of them conveying their message through her songs, Just take a look at Run the World what does this signify, new world order. Members of TLC have confirmed this indoctrination and mind control does exist by Clive Davies but they broke free and once the artist is no longer of the same significance they are disposed off, 1st by showing they have corrupted themselves stripping them of their fame and then killing them like Micheal and Whitney. The new world trade centre is almost complete signifying the world order is forming this very year of 2013 and this being a monument to signify this its all been calculated.

  23. JER February 25, 2013

    Mariah showing dat respect. “Always Be My Baby” was Mariahs first REAL R&B hit. It wasnr an R&B remix, the original version still slays everytime.

  24. kiare February 25, 2013

    U can say what u want about monica but the fact that shes 18 years in says a whole lot more. monica is a r&b legend!!!& vocal beast!!

  25. David February 25, 2013

    Monica will slay those autotune, backing track, lip syncing b****** any day. Love how she commanded that stage.

    Haters will continue to hate…

  26. GAslickmouf February 25, 2013

    Monica can sing her ass off years ago
    Now it comes across as if she is trying to
    Prove to ppl she can sing.

    Them long ass notes that no one does anymore
    Is over the f***** top!!

    All them xtra runs is just too much!!

    Its kinda like Ciara dancin none stop! B**** sit down and relax Ciara everyone know you are that
    B**** whn it comes to dance. No need to
    over do it.

    Monica over sings to the point its painfullhe damn time
    It takes away from the voice, a lie Fa

    • brownsuga February 25, 2013

  27. TJ February 27, 2013

    MONICA slayed…. Haters look real stupid right now… #thatisall

  28. Tsquared March 1, 2013

    Monica does too much. She needs some coaching. She has a good voice, but she needs to refine her live performances. I’d never pay to see her show, might buy an album though.
