Rumors that Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri have been on the rocks appear to be true according to Us Weekly.
The magazine reports that the duo has officially called it quits after a seven year public relationship.
"His friends are telling people it's over," says a source. "They have been moving in different directions for a while."
News of the split follows the duo's recently public and blended business relationship. At one point Dupri oversaw much of Jackson's discography including 2008s "20 Y.O.".
Rumors began to hit the net in 2008, prompting Dupri to shoot one of his many YouTube distributed videos with Jackson in the background.
Sources claiming to be close to the couple tell Us Weekly they never should have been together in the first place.
"Jermaine likes to be out there mingling with everybody and Janet's more shy."
Jackson and Dupri's last major public appearance was at Kerzner International's grand opening of its Atlantis resort in Dubai in November. Jackson had aided Kerzner just over a year earlier, performing for the opening its Cove Atlantis resort in the Bahamas.

Janet and JD. You've worked too hard to just throw it all away. If anything this is when the relationship should get stronger. Nothing and no one is perfect at love. You've gotta go through some turbulence sometimes. That's what makes being in a relationship "worth it" looking back at what you went through in order to get where you are today. Sometimes you can be your own worst demon and lack all confidence because you're so afraid of what the end result could be. DAMMIT Janet and JD Make this s*** work and quit being so DAMN JUVENILE and STUBBORN. Listen to each other. Somewhere along the way "ONE OF U, IF NOT BOTH OF U, STOPPED LISTENING to one another. Find out where you disconnected and find a common ground. I expect SO MUCH BETTER from the both of you. The World Won, "YOU LOST" Revese it back and show the world "NOTHING CAN COME BETWEEN US" in the words of Sade. I Love U, Both!!!

Wasn't the 2008 album "Discipline"?
The cause for this breakup is a lot deeper than just not attending Michael’s funeral. It is interesting in relationships how frail we are when it comes to commitment, devotion, love not lust. We don’t realize that we are selfish, self-centered, unforgiving and walk in unfulfilled desires. A lot has to do with the wrong heart and not knowing who brings alternate change to our hearts.
Permit me to share something I see has great potential – Could this remake hit Big? This is currently at Sony.
What an opportunity! Perhaps Jamie Foxx would be willing to respond to this project? The remake of Sanford and Son. This can be a tribute in honor and recognizing Red Foxx contributions to this industry.
The thing that ignited this, I would impersonate Fred Sanford and people would enjoy it and the thought hit me! There has not been a Sanford and Son Movie made yet! Della Reese response “Your voice is very much like Redd Foxx’s”. youtube.com/healingprophet
