Listen to "Jermaine Dupri Searching For The Next Great Producer" on Spreaker. Leading spirits brand Remy Martin first introduced the Remy Producers program to offer upcoming music producers the opportunity to partner with one of the biggest names in music. This year, aspiring producers will compete for the chance to win a co-sign with Grammy Award-winning producer, Jermaine Dupri, of SO SO Def Records to create the next hottest hit in music. On September 28 in Atlanta, Jermaine will hand-select this season's winner and, potentially, the industry's next greatest music producer. One of the most influential names in hip hop and R&B, Jermaine Dupri is a Grammy Award-winning producer, Hall of Fame songwriter, recording artist and CEO of So So Def Recordings, which he founded in 1989. He has collaborated with artists such as Usher, Mariah Carey, Jay-Z, TLC, Janet Jackson, Ludacris, Alicia Keys and Nelly to name just a few. As CEO of So So Def, Jermaine released several platinum recordings, won a Grammy for Best R&B Song, and was honored with an ASCAP Golden Note Award, given to composers and songwriters who have achieved extraordinary milestones. He is one of only a few producers in music history to garner four positions in the Top 10 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart at one time, and is also the first recipient of the Billboard Otis Redding Excellence Award for his achievements both in and outside the studio.
