Ocean's 7 is an American musical collective composed of singer-songwriters, record producers, and rappers consisted of Jermaine Dupri, Bryan Michael-Cox, Johntá Austin, Usher, Nelly, Trey Songz, and Dupri's assistant Tyrone.[1] The group released the mixtape 3000 And 9 Shit, on May 5, 2009. Formed by Dupri in 1989, the group was modeled after the Rat Pack in the film Ocean's 11. Like the Rat Pack, the group's initial members, Dupri, Michael-Cox, and Austin are all associates and have teamed up to write and produce various hit singles for several artists in their careers.[2]
Often the team works together or just in a pairing. Their most notable productions are "U Got It Bad", "Burn" "Confessions Part II" by fellow member Usher, "Be Without You" by Mary J. Blige, "Everytime tha Beat Drop", "Love All Over Me" by Monica, "Like You", "Outta My System" and "Shorty Like Mine" by Bow Wow, and "We Belong Together", "Don't Forget About Us", "It's Like That", "Shake It Off", "I Stay in Love" and "You Don't Know What to Do" for Mariah Carey.
