Harlem dance track maker Jason Fox next up on Dupri's Island Urban roster.

The "Aunt Jackie," a Harlem / YouTube dance craze in the vein of "Chicken Noodle Soup," has landed creator Jason Fox a spot on Jermaine Dupri's new label, Island Urban. The second signee after Hot Dollar, Fox made the "Aunt Jackie" months ago, and saw it spin out into the nether-lands of myspace and YouTube - with over 275,000 "Aunt Jackie" views on the 'Tube alone. "I think were seeing the life of hip-hop coming back with songs like 'Aunt Jackie,'" said Dupri in a statement. "It's the kids acting like kids used to act when I was growing up, and I love it because, to me, hip-hop has been too cool for school lately. It's time for a change." Fox joins Hot Dollar on Dupri's newly created Island Urban roster. Watch the original Harlem YouTube jam:

I'm Aunt Jackie and I take this as a compliment.

It's cool people want to dance again. I'm tired of looking at videos where everyone is cheerleading or being too sexual. Just have fun!

However, I do have one suggestion: DONT MAKE THIS DANCE LOOK SO OLD! Add some more old school in it like the smurf, prep and Mc Hammer dance to it. Dont get so stiff! Get loose wit it!

Hey, if you are going to represent me, you've got to do it right!

Sincerely,
Aunt Jackie

It looks like Jermaine has the right idea. Too much of what we hear now is too cool for school of too cliche and crappy. I am tired of hearing people brag about their riches, that is not what I am about.

It's a hot track produced by Harlem's own Tyrone Wright (pka) Black. I love this track and the rap by Jason Fox and Hood Presidents.

I think this joint is on fire!!! It has a new throwback flavor to it, it is almost like a breath of fresh air . You can listen to it with your parents and not have to worry about someone cursin' on the track. I wish Jason Fox and Hood Presidents the best of luck!
