Stevie “Passport” Jones grew up singing in his local church choir, where his voice first caught the attention of his congregation. After graduating high school, Darryl worked odd jobs before being drafted into the U.S. Army in 1968 and sent to Vietnam during the height of the war. While stationed overseas, Stevie found solace in music, often entertaining his fellow soldiers with soulful renditions of the latest hits during downtime. However, as the war came to an end, Stevie made an unconventional decision. Instead of returning home like most of his comrades, he chose to stay in Vietnam. As he famously explained in an interview years later, “The hoes show me too much love out here.” Stevie’s smooth voice made him a local legend in the bustling nightlife of Saigon. In 1975, Stevie recorded his breakout single, “Passport Papi,” an anthem about leaving your troubles behind and finding love and adventure abroad. The song became a surprise hit in the U.S., peaking at #17 on the Billboard R&B charts.

This is hilarious!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂 My son travels, but not like this fictional cat!!!! My son said that dudes like this cat are called "Passport Bros". 😂😂😂😂😂
Or maybe your son doesn’t want to be associated with the Passport Bros. Why do you think this song was done. Take a look at what’s going on.
Habha he told them he was Usher
So this is fake?? This is the flyest shit I've heard
