@@jonesyradio please bring it back and use your voice to make more dope music. I’m 33 now, so a little kid when this came out, but I wish music was still like this 😍🔥
This song captures the New York energy that was killing the game, it was during the rise of Bad Boy entertainment and all of the great hip hop stuff that was about to take over the world. Great Hype Williams-directed video.
That was when New York was New York (The home of Hip Hop Music) made by the Black American ( African American community) in the Bronx , Brooklyn, Queens , Manhattan , Staten Island ( New York City) and New Jersey!!! The old New York. But now this New York City is now New Yerk. ( Like the tourists say ) the New New York City - Gengerifiied version!!!!
THE SHOOTER!!! i'm jogging at the bethesda fountain in a little WHILE... YES!!! this scene its 1995 again, and we are all ready to rule the world all over again!!!
YO!!! This video is like a snapshot of the whole 90s!!! We got...Miss Jones...Doug Fresh...SWV...Monie Love...Bus-A-Bus?!!! This shit is love right here.
@@pillcosby3264 Good eyes, my guy. He creepin up at [2:43] true. When did this come out--'94, '95? Ja woulda had j-u-s-t made the '99 XXL freshman joint if it was a thing back then.
Ja rule was known as CMC= Cash Money Click...no Ja Rule Yet......& ME and twin Brother got Ms. Jones in a Sandwich...her Man @ the time was Tite....Cause everybody was on her that Day!!! All that in those plastic Tites.....
That Uptown Crew consist of Puffy, Biggie, Lost Boys, Heavy D, Guy, Jodeci, Mary j Blige, Soul for Real, Monifah, Terri & Monica, Christopher Williams etc....... of course Miss Jones!
@@blankspace8758 what makes her shady bruh...if you lisen to her story and what it took to get on back then ....you would probably have a new found respect for her fam
I partied my ass off from 94-2000! NYC was definitely at its peak.Nas,MJB,Bad Boy,Lost Boys..... the party scene was on 100!!!!! The Tunnel,Palldium,demararas, Bentley’s,Shadow,the Showboat,The Arc,Arena and of course The Tunnel with music you could actually dance too.Def lived my best life
Oh yes...the Tunnel, on Sunday nights!!! What a time to be alive. They use to let the 1st 500 girls in free, unisex bathroom....yes indeed, what a time to be alive.
I m from Washington, DC. But I am a New York City area person now. I grew listening to Donie Simpsons Hip Hop Soul , 93.9 , 95.5 fm radio stations in DC that featured Hip Hop. So DC Hip Hop fans like me heard hits like Miss Jones - Where I wanna be boy and other Hip Hop, and Go Go Music on DC radio and Cable TV stations like BET. So this is one of my favorites!!!
this was my ishhhh in 93 summer just out of high school had my car back in Newark nj brick city babe with all the windows down them was da good Ole dayz mmmmm! bring back da 90's music was great back than!!!
I remember when they played this song in New York Undercover. I even recorded the show a few months ago when it came on BET and DM it to her on IG and she was so thrill about it.
Trishawn Benjamin In NY Hot 97 when the Tsunami happened awhile back she did as a joke make fun of the people that were suffering. I just read that she was on Philly radio and she was fired for doing the same dumb stuff.
Why would she do something like that. People have lost their lives, homes, and other things. She deserved to be fired than, that was just wrong you know. Thank you for telling me that.
Miss Jones truly served as a voice for that universal need for connection and solace with a song like “Where I Wanna Be Boy”. The 90s, especially in Uptown, was a time of immense challenge and resilience. Life was undeniably real-residents were navigating systemic struggles, economic pressures, and the emotional toll of living in such intense environments. R&B during this era became a sanctuary, and artists like Miss Jones used their music to express what many people couldn’t articulate. Her song encapsulated the longing for affection, intimacy, and emotional refuge amidst the chaos. It wasn’t just about romance-it was about survival in a different sense, providing a soft place to land in a hard world. For women and men in Uptown, her voice in that song symbolized more than just love-it was about acknowledging vulnerability in a culture and era where being “tough” was often the default. Her music bridged that gap, creating space for honesty and emotional needs to be expressed, which was healing for many. In a way, Miss Jones became a voice for those unspoken desires for peace, closeness, and escape, offering a soundtrack for moments of hope and love amidst the trials of Uptown life. Songs like hers weren’t just entertainment-they were necessary, reflecting the emotional heartbeat of a community.
This was my JAM in '95! I remember i waited forever for the album, but it never came out (it was shelved an never released). But i had the single and that sufficed. Ahh the 90's, when talent, good music, and good taste reigned supreme.
I had the same white outfit Miss Jones has on in this video!! I remember wearing it to a Final Four party (my NYC heads remember). We would always run into Miss Jones in Harlem with Doug E Fresh around this time!!! Much love from Harlem NYC ❤️❤️
This is such a 90s video! The hairstyles and fashion scream mid-90s look. Some of the elements remind me of something SWV would do during this time period.
@@TheNewgreatlife Yeah, they’re the two dancing around on their own throughout the video, and you can hear Taj more than Coko during the chorus. Have a watch and listen again.
I swear summers 94-95 was everything!! What a time to be alive!!! Everything back then was just on point!!! Cheers to the 90s!!!
yasssss, I would argue 88 to 00 was the shit for urban music.
NellyBelle facts Beautiful
Jason Stallings Thanks!!

That's what it's supposed to do
EVERY.SINGLE.TIME!!!
I had just turned 14 when this song came out in 1994. The spirit of the 1980s and 1990s will live inside of me FOREVER.
same here...salute to you
The energy was soooooo different
I was 26 yrs old
I was 12. 😂
I had just turned 14 as well
I love my classics. I like to hear the flava miss Jones, monifah, Yvette Michele, Davina, SWV, Total, the list goes on and on...
because in the 90's everybody brought the flava! 702, Brownstone, TLC, Changing Faces, Kut Klose, Allure, Xscape...need I say more?
just had to screenshot your comment for reference
+Shawn Williams I agree!!!!!
Yes I know all those ladies you mentioned, no one really mention Davina name anymore or Yvette Michele.
That Davina song is a great track ❤
Please, someone take me back. I miss those days so badly.
Remember Coco from SWV's long-long azz nails, Busta was really wild and crazy, and Onyx. Mannnn the 90's was so much fun.
Often imitated never duplicated
