Mariah Carey eliminates Jermaine Dupri as her manager...

Bye, bye, you're fired! Mariah Carey has reportedly parted ways with her manager Jermaine Dupri. Ever since the poor mishandling of her latest album ‘Me. I Am…Mariah. The Elusive Chanteuse’, disgruntled fans have blasted him for his unsatisfactory management skills. 

Even Carey's former Def Jam boss LA Reid cosigned their disapproval with some shady tweets. Her latest album has suffered the lowest sales of her career so it serves as no surprise MC is cleaning shop. JD has been producing for Mariah for two decades now and their friendship has lasted even longer. However, being charitable with putting friends on your payroll doesn't always weld the positive results as we've already come to witness.

I was even going to say she should restrict him to producing only but even his records are played out now. A scanned article from the newest issue of Billboard magazine suggests she is close to signing a management deal with Def Jam’s former president Kevin Liles but nothing is set in stone as of yet. This is definitely for the best.
