Jermaine Dupri Drops Club-Ready Single “Turn Around” with T.I., 2 Chainz & Young Dro
Jermaine Dupri shared with Digiwaxx that before creating this record, he would reach out to DJs and tastemakers to see what the club was missing – and then he’d go right in the studio and deliver exactly that. That’s why he’s always been ahead of the curve. Now, the GRAMMY®-winning producer, Songwriters Hall of Famer, and true cultural icon is back with another banger. His new single “Turn Around,” featuring Atlanta rap royalty T.I., 2 Chainz, and Young Dro, is out today via on all platforms including the Digiwaxx record pool! Serving as the lead single from his highly anticipated full-length album inspired by the upcoming STARZ docuseries Magic City: An American Fantasy (executive produced by JD and premiering August 15, 2025), “Turn Around” is a full celebration of Atlanta’s influence on music and strip club culture. The bass-heavy, club-ready anthem is unapologetically Southern, encouraging women to smile, let loose, and “turn that thing around.” The high-energy video, debuting June 13, captures ATL’s strip club scene in all its rawness, featuring cameos from Bow Wow, 21 Lil Harold, and other local legends. When we interviewed Jermaine Dupri about his new Magic City project and his latest single “Turn Around,” he shared powerful insight into his creative process. Speaking on the writing and production of the track, he told me, “I believe good music is good music.” He went on to explain how he approaches his work with intention, saying, “I see a void, and when I see a void, I try and fill it at all times.” It’s that mindset that has kept him at the forefront of music for decades, always listening to the culture and giving the people exactly what they didn’t even know they were missing. The full project, dropping August 15 alongside the docuseries, brings together an all-star lineup of Atlanta artists, marking the first time a producer from the city has curated an entire album exclusively featuring Atlanta talent across generations and genres. It’s a historic moment, with JD and So So Def once again pushing the culture forward. Fans can expect an immersive listening experience that captures the essence of Atlanta’s iconic strip clubs while honoring the roots, legends, and lasting impact of Magic City on hip-hop and pop culture. As someone who’s witnessed JD’s passion up close, it’s clear he’s always stayed tapped in with his city – showing up for his own with an unshakable sense of hometown pride. With the summer heating up, “Turn Around” is just the start. Get ready for an Atlanta takeover led by one of its founding architects. It’s an Atlanta Summer.
