If Atlanta had to elect a mayor to lead its accomplished music scene, Jermaine Dupri would be the unanimous choice to govern the city. Dupri showed why he's the city's lead musical official by hosting the 2007 So So Def Summerfest. The four-day festival featured several parties, a comedy night, a celebrity basketball game and a pool party. Notable celebrity attendees included Chingy, Common, Fabolous, Jamal Tinsley, Hot Dollar, Kanye West, Nelly, Larenz Tate, Tank, Too $hort, Josh Smith and Bow Wow.
Dupri believes that this year's event was the best thus far. "I've always wanted to give Atlanta its own Essence Festival," he said. "We started out a few years back, and it has gotten bigger each year. This entire weekend is to show that Atlanta knows how to have a good time. We're giving people the opportunity to party and see how beautiful this city really is." -amir shaw
