Cafe Dupri Closed ~ Workers Left W/O Checks!?!
Jermaine Dupri’s Atlanta eatery Cafe Dupri closed unexpectedly today. Cafe Dupri workers were left dazed and confused stating that they had no warning of the closure. They were also left without pay. I know the economy is effed up right about now…but dayum Jermaine! Where you at? You need to come see about your folks!

August 18, 2008 @ 10:59 pmCafe Dupri looked like a ramshackle, rundown, threadbare tenament compared to the other ritzy, high-rent, snooty, **** on Piedmont. That was the problem. When it comes to fancy-schmancy ****, it’s all about the pretty presentation and Dupri didn’t have that, kin-folk.

August 19, 2008 @ 3:55 pmJD if you’re having money problems that bad then just borrow the money from your girl to pay your employees. What are we talking about? Maybe, three to four thousand dollars? Come on dude.
I’m quite sure the ex-employee’s need their money to pay bills and by food for their family’s. Everybody can’t ride on 24’s.
