Jermaine wants Janet and Mariah to release a joint album
|  | | Janet and Mariah | If you though that the Kanye - 50 Cent battle generated some buzz, you're not going to believe what Def Jam is considering. MediaTakeOut.com spoke with a Def Jam insider who claims that Jermaine is trying to convince Janet and Mariah to release a joint album.
According to an executive at the record label, Jermaine came up with the idea as a way of increasing interest in both albums. The insider explained to MediaTakeOut.com, "There hasn't been a ton of interest out there for a new Mariah Carey album, and there's even less for a Janet Jackson album. Jermaine thinks that if the two were combined, it would generate enough buzz to increase the overall sales for both artists."
Our source added "I think it's a brilliant idea. With the music industry business struggling, this is exactly the kind of thing we need to do if we're going to increase sales." But it appears that neither Mariah or Janet are as easy to convince as our insider. The Def Jam exec told MediaTakeOut.com that, so far, neither woman has signed on to Jermaine's idea.
