It's not often that I am able to give props to music mogul Jermaine Dupri. But apparently the the little tyke is quite the basketball player. I hear JD kicked ass for one of his favorite charities. The So So Def founder was one of five contestants to take part in the T-Mobile myFaves Shot of a Lifetime event, shooting up to five hoops with the opportunity to win up to $50,000 for their chosen charity.

I hear Dupri showed off his ball skills to the packed audience, scoring five out of five - landing him the maximum prize money available. After his win, he told the crowd, "I've learned a lot as a young man coming up in the ranks of the music business and saw many examples of what celebrity really means-using your blessings to bless somebody else. 

"Not for fanfare or fame, but to be able to hopefully help someone else in need." Dupri will donate the money to youth organization the Boys & Girls Club in his native Atlanta, Georgia.



Angela Yee talked to S.B. recently about his low album sales, his current beef with Bow Wow and of course Charles Hamilton. Check it out.

I'm not even going to comment on Soulja 'damn' Boy going at Charles Hamilton. Puhlezze...

Yo Gyant....Only bithces say "Puhleeze" like that....I've always disregarded the gay jokes that people have made about you on this site, but after that little remark, they just might be right...
