ATLANTA _ According to foreclosure documents, music producer Jermaine Dupri is losing his multimillion dollar Atlanta mansion.

A mortgage foreclosure notice from September says Dupri owes $2.5 million on the 9,441-square-foot home. The notice says the songwriter-rapper failed to make monthly payments.

Fulton County public records show the property is valued at nearly $3.7 million.

It’s not the first time Dupri has faced financial troubles. His mansion was up for foreclosure and set to be auctioned twice _ in 2011 and 2012. But the sales were cancelled. He’s lived in the 19-room home for 10 years.

Dupri’s attorney, James Kane, said Thursday that he couldn’t comment. Dupri’s publicist didn’t immediately return a phone call.

Dupri has produced hits for artists including Usher and Mariah Carey, and had a seven-year relationship with singer Janet Jackson.
