The fact that this man paid Child support for 7yrs without being granted a DNA and it's being overlooked is disgusting, that's a real shame.
My fav track
th3hitman3166 yes that is not right and the bad judgment on the courts should pay him back for not doing there job and awarded him a paternity test
Facts..... Top comment
to me it sounds like something that would happen when u make deals with devils, u pay for it in many ways.
@@glodielitious devil? Gtfo with that nonsense
This dude knows how to tell a hell of a story ! 😂
Yeah
Hes funny as hell!!!🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, he DID that!
I was thinking the same thing.
Darius Dinero swear I want to hear it just cause of his storytelling. He real cool...
If they had to define the early 2000s with a list of 50 songs, Tipsy would be on it. It was an absolute smash.
Right!! One of the hottest songs when it came out.
Real talk. Was a freshman in high school when it came out. Song was EVERYWHERE.
Oh most definetly, without question
Hood hop would be too.
Hood Hop was a fire album
I love how after all these years he’s still so excited about his song
We luv dis
VERY💔
💙😇
ThisLove well his only hit
ThisLove righhhhhhht 💯💯💯👏🏾🙏🏾
For the ppl born from 80s to about 97 know that the early 2000s was a special time
It was lit them 90s was sumn else but the south blew up in 2000s still going hard too
Dee Ballin yea
Jalen Catledge yes
Dee Ballin lol..You get a pass
True
I actually didn’t plan the watch the whole thing - but homie was so endearing and entertaining - give him his own show BET the world needs to see J-Kwon
Booboo Kittie yasssss!!!! Love his energy😍
agreed
I wasn't supposed to watch it all either lol (but i did lol)
Lmao the most true comment. He needs to be on something now. I want to see more
BET doesn't endorse positivity
J-Kwon should have turned to television I could definitely see him doing great as an actor in the sitcom.
Agreed surely.....
I can't believe that his Mother let him leave at 12.... He seems like such a genuine, intelligent person.
Blk mothers don’t care about they sons unless they play SPORTS
Articulate and well spoken
She trash like that’s not how you rear Black men.. So glad our generation is becoming more enlightened smhhh
Horrible mother
12 🤔 What Kind of Mother lets her Son leave the house at 12 🤔 Damn 😔😔😔
I just realized jkwon is a real hood dude with street intelligence and he seems humble at the same time!
Neil Howes Agreed. You couldn’t have stated it any better.
Rhiannon You wouldn’t be on the street if you were intelligent, at least not for long.
He really is an intelligent young man.
The first mistake that was made raising this young man was calling him ugly!! What kind of people call children ugly?!? He Never had attention and rather be living in the worse circumstances possible than to live at his mothers house speaks volumes!!!! Poor guy 😢💔💯
Actually he was the cute one to me.
I can relate. Single mothers aren't good parents. They be stressing and abusing their kids. Heard way worse growing up
Yep. His mother failed him.
LiSa& Bilopalu 👏👏👏👏
@Nicki P He was the cutest of the kids. I was so surprised when he said that. How can you say that to a kid?
His personality is so Charismatic and inviting and engaging I really want to see more of him!
I was thinking the same ish
Agreed! It's refreshing.
Yes!! I agree. His energy is off the charts!!
Facts!!!
Facts sis!!
Have y’all noticed that all the artist who’s careers ended quickly is the most humble & down to earth !
Azaelia Banks is about as humble as Mayweather
You’re fine what’s ur ig
@@haddingtoniangcp2464 her career isn't over J Kwon's career is 😂
@@momo4044 😂😂😂😂
They know what they have to do. They just decided it's not worth it at the end of the day.
I was lowkey mad the interview ended...this dude is cool as hell...
Right! 🤷🏾♀️
Right!😊
In the 2000s he was the coolest around
finally, a rapper who didnt lose his money after falling off the spotlight.
And after paying $2500/month for 7 years for a child that wasn't his
malikrashaun that how should have to pay it back
malikrashaun easy 210k gone
I wonder how much he really made off of it
He lost his money, his net worth is poor
The way he was telling the story had me on the edge of my seat, he fine too
Right?? Far from ugly!
It's amazing he still looks the same and so humble and cool!
Word. I thought damn if hes the ugly brother what them other ones look like. Hes def a cutie
Shol is lol
I'm better tho boo get at me
I love how he is so excited talking about tipsy. The excited in him makes me feel happy and want to listen to it again.
I also love how he understands when your time is up, it's up. But, he is so humble about it.
Cause it was a big hit in hip hop during that time frame. And there weren’t many rappers coming out of St. Louis at the time. Just clingy and Nelly etc so that song was a big deal back then
@@michaelbull4344 I couldn't agree more.
J Kwon seems like a humbled dude. He don't come off as being cocky, arrogant and always bragging like most of these rappers
Bragging, battling and being cocky is/was how most rappers acted though, all competitors, the nature of the culture.
He's that cousin that be having everybody hanging on his every word at the function, i love it!
This has been the best Finding episode so far. I love J-Kwon's energy. BET gives everyone else a reality show, please give one to J-Kwon!!!!
I met dude when his album was coming out. He was mad humble, I was actually the nobody walking around Arista records.
He aged very well. His skin is immaculate.
Aged? WTF! He's not 80 you idiot, he's only 31.
Ann T have you seen the 31 yrs olds today? I’m 34 and I look younger that the teenagers today
U know black don't crack😂
33 not 31
Glad to see he didn't let the industry eat him alive like so many other artists have.
Standalone856 RIGHT!! same thing I was thinking.
🎯
He was with jd and had a hit record. He did something. 😂
Funny, how so far I did not see anything thing bad about the queen they took child support money for years yet...not once. Love how yall just protect black women on here huh?
Right
His mom is a self hating woman. He looks like her . He’s adorable and that song was the jam of my senior year.
Jan Kam damn senior year I was only like 5 when this dropped lol
AK REACTS , damn . I’m officially old. 😩
Jan Kam no your not lol I was like 14 we’re not old the young ones just now becomes adults 💪
Right he is not ugly if he is his momma is lol
@@jankam2418 lol I was 14
He tells a hell of a story, animated and all. Funny AF
JKwon nice. I saw him on Crenshaw once. He was walking down the street. My friend yelled his name. He came right over and spoke to us. Seem very down to earth. Get back on it JKwon
Someone needs to do something with this guy. His storytelling skills are on point.
I love his energy
He’s really articulate for a bammer.
@@fat3lwound he's not a bammer.
Ikr put him on a sports channel
Reality tv
He's still cute and he was never ugly. I use to love me some J-Kwon baby!
Yesss hun I always thought he was fine!!😍
Everyone in my school said he was so ugly but I thought he was cute
Hearing him talking about making music from 15 years ago with such passion is so dope.
his skin is 100% flawless , no pimple no nothing , its breathing . he matured very well .
Yes lawd, ✌️✌️🤤😍😍😍😍
Lechiffresix six hes eatin good!
My exact same thoughts... he gives off good vibes.
Goons hydrate too lol
He sexy AF!! I'm like damn JKwon, you age beautifully!
Idk why I clicked on this, but I’m glad I watched it lol. His Energy was everything
Christine Pristine me neither 😂but it was good
Same
Yeah, it is!
Christine Pristine lol right
You woulda clicked quick for Drake or a new artist I bet money though. Hoes man
“Jive what, turkey??” 😂💀
This is the best interview I’ve seen in a long time.
Sleeping in a car at 12, payin child support for 7 years, music industry disrespectin you smh...
I Love You J-kwon
Listening to people’s stories when they are chasing their dreams and what they experienced is always motivational to me.
💯💯💯💯.
#stayfocused
Yes
For real
*🗣️he needs his own show, BET🗣️ I have been IMPRESSIVELY entertained. He is very intelligent and positive.*
Fatal Bee I second this motion
I agree... I was laughing, rocking and in shock with him. I watched it two times lol. 🤦🏾♀️
Yeessss I agree. Give us more J Kwon!
I agree
I agree as well
Child support in this country is out of control. He should have never had to go through that
That's absolutely disgusting, too.
It's a ***hustle***.
This is why more men are opting out of marriage, and the family life.
The woman,
the attorneys,
the judge,
and the State should ALL pay him back....in interest (all entities that profit off of this hustle charge interest, anyway).
His energy is another level, all positivity. He dodged a bullet stepping away, does nothing but control and kill your character.
Basically he's just a all around good guy and I wish him well!!!!
Truth
He’s still handsome as ever!! He seems so humble and down to earth. I pray all good things come his way!! ❤️
Amen
He's a cutie!😊
He seems like a stand up dude. I wish him well.
Calling him ugly because he didn't look like his light skinned brothers is disgusting. Black ppl and this Jim Crow mentality is sickening and we need to end the cycle. J-Kwon is extremely good-looking and has a great personality.
What's disgusting is your mind going straight to some light skinned/ dark skinned stuff when he about half a shade darker than them. Y'all kill me splitting hairs over this "brown skinned" bs. His brother's ain't light skinned and they may happen to be more conventionally good looking.
You've got sight issues
Exactly
They weren’t light skinned. Tf are you talking about?
Swing and a miss. Ya blew it, capiche?
"Tipsy" Is A Monster.
Everytime I Play It
That Bass Knocks So Hard.
A True Party Anthem.
I still go all out in my car when it comes on. I dont care who sees me jammin
Wow he looks healthy and very great clear ass skin I’m happy for him
This was literally GOLD! He’s still HUMAN!!!! I love how he explains everything and how he had no problem speaking freely without fear! Didn’t even plan on watching the full interview but I was so surprised !!! Many blessings to him.
He did an amazing interview...I wasn’t planning on watching it all but his personality pulled me in and made me stay all the way to the end ...I hope to see more things from him soon!!!
I love this he aged so well and didn’t lose himself good job
ogMamaRed 380 right, barely even aged
@micheal Knight rite only 28
I never would’ve thought he would be so charismatic and nice.
Miki Mm I'm shock too! He seem really cool and down to earth. Can listen to him talk and tell stories all day he so entertaining how he tell s story.
“Jive what ? Jive turkey 🦃 “ lol 😂
That was so funny!!😂🤣🤣
Record labels are just evil..... This is literally everyone's story!
1000%
THE JEWS RUN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY
That attorney, judge, and girl should all be doing a life sentence
But they're not so it is what it is
cars and sneakers stfu
They getting paid so...🤷🏾♂️
@@MBYSmusic getting paid for doing something illegal isn't a "so what" thing. You want someone to force you to pay the kinda childcare a rich person pays for 7 years before the system actually listens to logic that should've been done on day one. You got issues. Stars pay as little as $12k/mos. up to $200k/mos.
Definitely not cool!
I ain't gonna lie this video was sitting in my recommendations for days but I didn't click on it because I thought it was gonna be depressing asf, but I'm glad I watched it.
Jkwon is a very intelligent man with his insightful storytelling skills and clearing out what happened.
I was the same way. For weeks I seen it but I'm glad I watch it
mplsridah me too bro
"Intelligent?" If you consider him to be "intelligent," then I am scared to think where you may be on the intellectual scale.
Omg my exact thoughts
Lol I’m wit y’all same here He happy as hell to be back on tv😂😂😂
Also labels "shutting down" when they have an artist hit is another scam.
They scoop the profits.
Right this seemed to happen a lot to early 2000s rappers specifically. Most if them just have 1 or 2 hits bc of label drama. Nelly is like the only one who didn’t get fucked over
@@Stopwar1234 because they needed Nelly more than he needed them
@@antoineast Bingo!!! You milk a cow until it can’t produce anymore milk.
lol! The White girls in the back on trl.
thats hey need to roll up on these label exec make some examples ....
the mob way ....break a few knee and heads ....they are stick up execs FUKK EM
St.Louis got major talent in the city!!!
Barry Daryle yes we do
ErIn Sullivan I'm already knowing, big shoutouts to St Louis all the way from Oklahoma City. I plan on moving there soon by the way.
@@barrydaryle7817 why come here?
except they don't tend to last long

Kanye West " Thats cute "
I think this is one of the best interviews I’ve ever watched lol. I like his energy
Me too girl!
YESSSS ME TOO!!!💜
I agree
He needs to be on a microphone fr. His energy is magnetic. Start a podcast J. ✌💓😁 FROM EAST TEXAS
Super good energy! :)
That was refreshing seeing that interview clip with him and la la. I miss the way hip hop used to be!!!! Real actual talent!
He should've sued everybody for his money back 7years worth smh
He too official to run it back 🏆
This man is humble and very positive..
Look like he manages his money well. Most rapper's would be broke asf.
Because he has Gucci sneakers on? When was his wealth spoken about? Lol
J no because he has a nice ass house
Jxssi how you know that’s his house??
$1,000 White Gucci shoes ... The man has to be eating good!

“Errrebodyyy in the club getting tipsy” my childhood 😭
He really does have a great spirit
And intelligent too.
Yes, he needs to be on somebody's tv show or movie. So entertaining!
I smiled the whole time! He legit just has a genuine and humble aura. I'm happy he is still believing in himself!
That’s what I 🥰 loved that too...and I dang near cried with him at each moment...I was beyond pisssed😤😤 at the paying someone else child support Hes a great man and I feels his feel😭😔 omg which makes him so endearing 😊🤗
Same and I agree 🙂
He wasn't a puppet to the industry they tried to break him
@@jameelbrown3668 but they cldn't he is blessed like he says
I really like this guy. Hes humble, grateful & his enthusiasm. He deserves to be a millionaire. Wish him many blessings weather the public sees it or not. #blessup P.S Jkwons own genre name is #hoodhop
This was oddly refreshing. His personality and energy can be felt...Im glad he is still successful and doing his thing
Somebody please give this guy a reality show. He's so entertaining...
Same thing I was thinking 🤣
Right; he was ready then.
Social Science I'd watch it‼️
That child support situation don’t make sense 🤨
he reminds me of Joc
He seems a lot more mature. Most artists don’t even last THIS long
yeah they get weak
I'm sorry he got some new shit?
Please do more interviews with this man i just love his energy
He reminds me of someone's drunk uncle telling stories.
Rightttttt lol
Exactly 🤣🤣🤣
okay youtube im finally watching it
Same it keeps popping up.
Right I keep seeing it
Lol so true
Right lol
Lol right
The crazy thing is so many rappers go broke! And this dude said he never has to work again just off hood hop and tipsy!!! Lmao man it’s rappers with multiple platinum albums who broke,this a smart dude right here!!!
Yes, he is smart. Save your money and don't spend it on shit that has no value after you buy it. #GunsAndButter
💯
His a smart man
@@kristineilochi7421 cant remember that song!!!! #GunsNButterbaby
@@kristineilochi7421 YOUNG OG by FABOLOUS!!!
Man just just hearing the beat to hood hop got me crunk at 430 in the morning...
😂😂😂
He is so well spoken and his presence is so intriguing.. I wish we got more from this black King but appreciate what he did give us especially with such a hard start wow that's so inspiring
I agree it s too bad that he wasn’t a bigger artist other than his one hit he could’ve been the 50 cent of St. Louis if he was handled right by his record label they screwed him over
It a shame he looks younger and healthier that most of the artists out now!
No pill poppn lean sippn here
When u dont let labels ride u
Agreed
Keashi Clemons Is speaking facts
Keashi Clemons 👍🏽👍🏽🔥🔥
People kill me comparing kids .. made him feel bad as a child .. God Blessed him
He was a cute little kid and grew into a handsome young man!
That's how grown ass ppl do they use to do that shit to me and my sister and cousin They was always saying how handsome I was and how pretty my cousin was but my lil sister was always left out she ain't ugly it's just my mama didn't take pride in my sister's appearance but still ppl shouldn't have did her like that
Chevy Gurl01 yes!
Nene Sterling not cool 💚that’s why y’all gotta let her know she’s beautiful 💜
I like what I saw from J-Kwon in this video. Very real and self aware
J Kwon is that guy you wanna chill with on a regular day coz he makes everything sound funnier than it is-funny character
The man is only 32! Y’all act like he 60 😂😂😂😂
For real, Lol
exactly
Ikr..... simple folk abound.....
Lovely Lady ASMR he one year older then drake and same age as French Montana!
that's crazy he do youngf
He needs his own Unsung story 💯💯💯💯🗣🗣... “Tipsy” was a whole anthem
bit.ly/2EhI1Rt
Really was though
So young LOL
I swear i see you under every video almost Lol. You comment on entertainment stuff a lot
How dumb with one song? STFU
These flashbacks make me feel nostalgic😭
Awww this just made me love him, I never really knew too much about his like personality lol I love it
We need J Kwon on a show or movie!! His personality is everything.
They Shouldve used him as Bobby brown. he has the mouth and the actions . no shade i like him too
Pretty cool to see someone else catch that. He definitely seems like a humble guy.
Ain't it tho! Love his energy
And he's sexy, we need to see him more often. He's very wise and creative. I hope everything works out for him.
no it’s not
I remember tipsy was my ring tone on my flip phone & I would tell my friends to call me at 9pm cuz my minutes were free.
Snickers & Pickles yessssss 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😂😂😂
My shit was free after 7 pink flip sprint phone 😂😂😂😂
Lmfao
Funny as hell.. But those were the days, lol
OMM THEM MINUTES FREE AT 9PM AND WEEKENDS
He is sooooo FINE!! Aged so well....love his personality and energy!!!
When I was younger I purchased the J-Kwon "Hood Hop" Album, I was impressed with his music & with him being only 17 years old @ the time,- lyrically You could feel his music & to this day he is an artist I never forgot about. J-Kwon's music will always live on!
I always felt like Hood Hop was criminally underrated. Had some tough bars and the beat was insane.
Yessss
Yesss
Super facts
That beat was sick!
Off the chain
Tipsy was a banger but that Hood Hop beat was straight flames.
Michael Senpai , yes!!
Michael Senpai Hood Hop for sure was a better song lyrical wise and instrumental but Tipsy was more mainstream more people remember and know that song. But Hood Hop is my favorite J-Kwon song 🎧💯
@@isaacannanjr2371 Mine too. I got a speeding ticket replaying that song, it had me flying on the highway.
fo sho...I remember when they played hood hop in the club at my college the Latinas, black, and white chicks would spaz and do the chicken head lol....those was the days man
Michael Senpai damn for real that sucks how much did your speeding ticket cost?
Wow.. it’s crazy how I loved that song and never really knew anything about him. He sounds like a like able dude .. I enjoyed this interview
He was funny and I'm happy he's at a good place, I wish him nothing but blessing and positive.
Can't believe his mom gave her 12 year old son a choice and let him leave and the other side of his family let that 12 year old boy sleep outside in a duece an a quarter ! Unbelievable !
He Deserves His Success !
Sharpgirl's Serious child services should’ve been called on every adult that’s neglect he was 12
I can. If you see these mothers in the hood, you'll very easily understand.
@@bnwoI Cant Fatham
A Mother Doing That !
But then thats the Problem ! She's Not a Mother !
That's Crazy !
But he never told us y she told him that he probably was a hardheaded kid not wanting to go to school she was giving him an ultimatum bc thats only way I see a mom telling a kid something like that now if he was a good kid and she was like either or then yes she wrong
Right? Smh
Didn’t know what to expect when I clicked on this video. I’m pleasantly surprised by this humble, intelligent, articulate human.
J-kwon was definitely blessed. This song use to go so hard at Howard University parties. Reminds me so much of college.
This is so cool thanks for sharing !
But do u got a man tho makeda?🤔
Maks u beauty
I hope this series helps some of these artists , financially and brings some more light to them. He has such a warm personality. I could listen to him for hours.
I love his personality so much energy.
Yes girl his personality is off the charts love it
Who ever thought we would be saying “y’all kids today don’t know about that good music we had”
Man! Good times!
Mommy Stiletto tell em again
1994 baby🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
man I'm loving this Finding series!!! All my teen nostalgia is real right now
I like his energy! I watched him perform at the So So Def 25th Anniversary concert in ATL (all the way from Houston) & he was live!! It sucks that ppl took advantage of him during the peak of his career.Wish him the best with his future.
It's glad to see he's humble not bitter
I see BET tryna do their version of "Unsung"
