Losing a woman like Janet Jackson, people are inclined to look at you a little crazy. She’s famously regarded as one of the most beautiful celebrities in the world. Her edge really made people fawn over her like crazy. The concert footage always speaks for itself. Consequently, when Jermaine Dupri split from Janet, people had one burning question: what the hell happened? What makes anyone want to split from The Velvet Rope crooner? How could he fumble her? However, Dupri doesn’t understand how people could even think that about him.

Recently, he spoke to Nessa on Hot 97 in promotion of his Magic City album and docuseries. There, Jermaine Dupri addresses anyone suggesting that he had fumbled his relationship with Janet Jackson. The pair split up in 2009, over 15 years ago but people still can’t wrap their minds around it. For Dupri, he doesn’t quite understand the notion. In fact, he wonders why people don’t argue it vice versa instead.

Jermaine Dupri Shrugs Off Comments Saying He Fumbled Janet Jackson

“I don’t know what a fumble is, though,” he replies to Nessa. “I be trying to figure out why y’all don’t say she fumbled me. I’m not something that you just let roll down the street. I don’t look at it like that. I look at it like it’s a relationship, and we were together for eight years.”

Additionally, people spent a lot of time wondering how Jermaine Dupri ended up with Janet Jackson in the first place. He explains on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast that he made it a point early on to alleviate any potential concerns in their relationships. Dupri wasn’t with her for the sake of clout and access. He genuinely had a thing for her and that became evident quickly in their eight year relationship.

“It wasn’t about no music shit. I was just on some like hang out. I wasn’t on no music shit, though, I never wanted to produce her,” Jermaine Dupri says. “We got in an argument about me not producing her because she was around me watching everybody else get hit records. I never wanted her to think that’s what my agenda was. ’Cause so many people was saying that… When Janet met me she got picked up from the airport in a [Bentley] Continental T. … It wasn’t never no situation where I wanted her to believe that I was trying to do this.”

Consequence has been in Ye’s corner since day one. You can find Consequence in the credits and features of Ye’s earliest classics like College Dropout and Late Registration. Consequently, whenever someone goes against Ye, you won’t find his writer and friend far behind defending his honor.

So when Pusha T disavows Kanye for his myriad of questionable actions, it’s easy to tell where it’s going. Recently, Consequence spoke with DJ Drewski for Hot 97, where Push’s comments about his former GOOD Music cohort came up. There, the Queens rapper riles against Push, someone he hasn’t liked since 2011, claiming the Clipse rapper stole his style. Ultimately, he claims that the disrespect against Ye caused more harm than good. It’s allegedly why we didn’t get a ‘song of the summer’ this year.

Then, he starts revealing private texts.

Consequence Leaks Texts Between Pusha T and Ye in Long Rant

Drewski reads texts from Consequence’s phone, detailing how Ye was actually hurt during Pusha’s feud with Drake. “In the diss record to Drake, you still not 100 percent in the right with me, even though he should not have spoke on your wife. You not perfect either. The record still caused me mental harm, so that meant when you shot, you hit me and my family also,” it reads.

Then, Consequence has the DJ continue with Push’s reply. “Yeah, I agree, I’m not perfect… I never learned how to turn the other cheek when disrespected. It’s how I was raised. Martin Luther King wasn’t respected in my house either. Hurting you or your family wasn’t my intention. Protecting my family and the brand was the only mission. Sorry for any trauma caused by me,” they continue.

As a result, Consequence questions Pusha T’s integrity, that he doesn’t respect anyone, not even his brother Malice. “So if you’re running a rollout based on not respecting someone and you’re a man, but you know that you already apologized to this man, then are you being honest with your base? Are you being honest to the world? Is this a real feeling or is this contrived for marketing?” he says. “From everything I’ve seen, isn’t Malice engulfed in the same scripture as Martin Luther King? … Maybe you don’t respect your brother either.”

Consequence ends his tirade by seemingly challenging and taunting Pusha T before walking out of the interview altogether. “I’m outside. Anybody got anything to say to me, you can take your brother out the pulpit and find me in the streets. I’m from the same streets as the Supreme Team. I’m from the same streets as Rich and Alpo and AZ, you know, real drug dealers. Remember those? One.”
