Especially Mary she confessed her true love but he just could not understand until now.......but now is too late hate he took her for granted........look at what they COULD HAVE BEEN.......
She absolutely poured out her adoration and devotion to him and their love !! Man she loved him hard He never should of let her go ! Man to be loved this hard by someone x
I saw that too! The way he was looking at her while she was singing to him was almost a look of guilt, like he knew she wasn't just singing, but feeling it in her soul
This performance will never ever get old. Their love affair played out right on stage. Kci and Mary performed the heck out this song. Still loving it in the last month of 2020.
Ikr when she said “you told me a 1000 times that you would be mine oh mine!” I felt that. Could have been a beautiful powerful couple with a lot of effort and consistent genuine love
But why he couldn't be the man she needed him to be NOW HE IS ALONE GO SEE HIM AND HIS BROTHER SHOW.......JUST SAD COULD HAVE HAD MARY LOVE U........K.C. I. UR OLD DAYS.
Watching it you can see she was so more into him. She's singing this song directly to him and he's singing it for the audience. You could literally feel how much she loved him.
john blac. Lies look at how he licked out his tongue at her in the beginning he was singing directly to her and looking straight through her soul and pouring out his feelings for real he said noone can EVER TAKE UR LOVE FROM ME he was just young and whoreish like a lot of men are n miss out on the best GIFT GOD GAVE him and that is and was SHE QUEEN MARY J. BLIGE the one and onlt my girl.
All I can say by watching this video is that........he will never find a women that will loved him the way this women did at this time in their relationship look at him now on his show with his brother all alone like a real-not - playa will and in his case end up all alone thinking n wishing on what could have been it's 2 late K.C. u killed it now bro.
@@AirForce1Collector Not his fault Mary J needed to hear that Kci didn't want to get married and maybe it was a good thing their relationship could have gotten worse with marriage I ❤ them both vocally ALWAYS sometimes irregardless of the connection some things aren't meant to go forward 😢
People in the comments don’t know the backstory of this performance. They literally had a fight/argument backstage! Went out on that stage with all kind of emotions!! AND KILLED THE PERFORMANCE!!!
Not only how he looked at her, How he licked his lips at 2:43!!!! It was an unspoken "You gonna get it 😵after the show", I watched this when it first aired, That performance, You knew there definitely were sparks flying. Too bad they didn't keep those sparks going.
I just love the way that our day we used real instruments! The drums, piano, etc was unmatched. Mannnnn I miss those days when singers and were not engineered
This is MTV unplugged. The modern day equivalent is NPR tiny desk concerts. Jodeci didn't have all instruments in regular concerts. They'd have drums and DeVante would bring out his piano for certain songs. They used a DJ for the rest of the songs.
@@jbritney6610 supposedly he was being to friendly with some of the female fans and Mary was not having it. She look like she was very sad in the beginning of the song
Because she is coming from a bitter place. To try to air someone out because your career is no longer SPEAKS VOLUMES ABOUT HER! I love the fact that MJB has not responded because can't get dirty with the trash!! She's on a different level.
They were a couple. She was madly in love with him and it showed in this performance and her greatest album, some would say -I would say-My Life, is a product of that relationship.
This is really a beautiful song. The performance is an all time great. K-ci was on top of his game. Listen to the clarity the control and emotion in his voice with little effort. Mary took this to Sunday morning level intensity as well. I could listen to this over and over. Sigh the 90's. We didn't really know what we had. Laady open up your heart and let me in where I belong. Yes!!
She did a interview year's ago and stated that they had just had a bad fight and was high as hell when they came out and performed this song.....I said well dam they showl fooled me cuz they killed it
Whew K-Ci! From 3:12 to 3:27, pure perfection. LOVE when a male singer has a break in their voice like that. Adds to all the vulnerability and emotion they're putting in the song. Yes Lord! Mary was great as always.
DO YOU FEEL THAT ENERGY AND THAT CHEMISTRY IT WAS UNDENIABLE RIGHT HERE I JUST LOVE IT AND CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT......THIS IS MY JAM IT GIVES ME LIFE ..........REAL TALK.
Looking at this video you can tell that Mary loved K-Ci more than he did her. Check the body language. She was all touchy feely....He was singing to the crowd mostly...she was singing to HIM!!!! Can't remember though was this at the beginning of their relationship or towards the end...Maybe he didn't want anyone to know they were fooling around. If they continued to make music together... MAN!!!! This Unplugged was the best....They should make a duet album together now.
@@thenaturalsaver1145 first off it is true second off you need to change your username you cannot compare what Mary has accomplished in 31 years to what Jodeci has accomplished in the same time frame Time to take notes: Jodeci : 4 studio albums 3 compilation albums 13 singles 13 music videos Last studio album was in 2015 last studio album prior to 2015 was in 1995 Mary j Blige:. 15 studio albums Mary's discography consists of 14 top 10 studio albums 2 live albums two remix albums and over 80 singles-including more than 20 as a featured artist and who knows how many music videos eight of her 15 studio albums are multiplatinum Don't get me wrong I love Jodeci but all I was saying was is that you cannot compare the group and or K-ci to the fabulous Mary j Blige.. Mary's voice is just as strong today as it was when she first started Jodeci as well as K-ci their voices have deteriorated badly nobody wants to go see them perform I wouldn't go see them perform even if someone gave me a ticket.... Plus you post something like that 4 plus months later you just heard like we all just heard about the Jodeci and New edition tour
It’s funny u can hear the love nd hurt in both their voices like Mary was reaching for the love from K-CI nd K-CI wanting to jus give her the love but dnt knw how
I have scroll through a lot of post and yours is the most recent, everything else is 3 years and older, very much older....... how you Kim Rose....... truly hope you and your family are safe and healthy during this crazy time, God bless
My goodness gracious...... they way I rewinded this tune. I sang every ras note with my eyes closed thinking I'm MJB, imagining Devante or Dalvin was singing Kci's part to me. This track I will take to my grave.
THIS IS THE CUT RIGHT HERE. MARY J. BLIGE AND K-CI ARE TWO OF THE MOST POWERFUL, SOULFUL SINGERS EVER. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS SONG. THIS LIVE PERFORMANCE IS PHENOMENAL. THE WHOLE "WHAT'S THE 411" ALBUM IS CLASSIC!!! :) TEAM MARY J. BLIGE & K-CI!!
If these 2 were to have done a complete album after this song, it would've been amazing!!
$TRAIGHT FACT$$$$$
It would of been historical!!
Him or Dino fr wish we could have had more from kci and Dino
Yes🙌🏽🙌🏽
they would have killed each other but GD that album would have be majestic
Still listening to this in January of 2024🔥
Me too in 2024 right here with you the dou was and is that just powerful.
YASSSSSSS!!!!!

@@musizlovva1570 They were both drama together. It was said she punched him right before this performance.
They were going thru a rough time in their realtionship
Mary was not just performing she was obliging her love for the world to see she loved kci sincerely and she was true to it...I love her for this! !
She absolutely poured out her adoration and devotion to him and their love !! Man she loved him hard
He never should of let her go !
Man to be loved this hard by someone x
I saw that too! The way he was looking at her while she was singing to him was almost a look of guilt, like he knew she wasn't just singing, but feeling it in her soul
@@DannyM.D.N.A exactly
@@albertadean2436 yup
Too bad he didn't appreciate her, I know he's still sick behind it
Singer's today don't sing with this kind of passion and emotions any more
That's because their soul ain't black... it's green now (color of MONEY).
It's because singers used to come out of the church and they sang with SOUL.
No they don't.
@@Vernostonus smart analogy
That old chestnut.
How many of you have this on repeat?! Man, this shit still gives me chills. Timeless! Their voices together are a rarity. Nobody can touch it.
Always on repeat
Two powerful forces, sharing their talents. It is uplifting to witness such, their facial expressions speaks volumes.
I've listened to this song LITERALLY 7 times already
Nobody!!
I always have this song on repeat every day!
Can never be duplicated! Never, ever, ever!
YES!!!!!
Precisely
you can see the love and the hate between them
Lol
its a thin line...
Joy Spears 🤣🤣🤣🤣 H-Town
Fr!!! 🤣🤣🤣
😂🤣😂🤷🏿♀️🤦🏿♀️
She is a very special lady, I don' t even think she realizes the soulfulness and quality of her gift. KC is no joke either
She got better he went the wrong direction
indeed she is, i think now she knows 💚
Absolutely love K-Ci's vocals on this. The man could definitely blow. You don't see nobody else like him singing these days....
sassyone82 facts!!!
Sisqo was close to him
@@metsfanatic6270 facts and Tyrese if you really listen to em 💯
Sisco and tyrese were close, but it take two talent to get near to his.... he is a Beast, his voice a gift ( underrated...)
@@taytanostris His rewards will come from God Almighty
This really should’ve been released on a greatest RnB duets album. This is one of the greatest RnB duets EVER!

Agreed
NEVER EVER get old. True classic ❤
Yes !!!
Damn! This is definitely the best duo I've ever heard. They meant that shit.
Well... one of them did 😔
Rick and Teena
They were living it.
THIS ENTIRE UNPLUGGED NEEDS A DVD RELEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG WHY HASNT IT , it’s not even in here
Nobody did it better than uptown and Andre harrell
The way he looks at her.. powerful.. this takes me back..
So TRUE 💯

But why he couldn't be the man she needed him to be NOW HE IS ALONE GO SEE HIM AND HIS BROTHER SHOW.......JUST SAD COULD HAVE HAD MARY LOVE U........K.C. I. UR OLD DAYS.
Cause he was beating her ass 😂
@@musizlovva1570 Chile Kci is married loud and wrong
I hate that I can’t express myself to men like this. I’m stuck in the 90’s.
Preach ❤ you will find a deep soul who will communicate love to you on a deeper level than any of these lifeless souls. That's 90s love
I’m stuck there too!
You aint only one 😘
Me too here in 2021 smh
They don’t make music like this any more

These two had mad chemistry together! You can tell they were singing this to each other from their hearts. Very passionate!
I agree!
Lmaooo @4:42 K-Ci was the first one to do the stanky leg!
Hells yeah
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
2:44 though. Kci could get it back in the day.
I agree as long as he sang to me
😂😂😂😂😂
He was my biggest crush
What you said...
Def was my crush🙄😩
BLACK ANTHEM OF THE 90S
the way kci looked a mjb when she was singing😍😍😍😍
like he wanted to make love to her on the stage! lol
ikr exactly what I was bouta say..💜💙
yesss❤❤❤❤❤❤
Not only how he looked at her, How he licked his lips at 2:43!!!! It was an unspoken "You gonna get it 😵after the show", I watched this when it first aired, That performance, You knew there definitely were sparks flying. Too bad they didn't keep those sparks going.
RoyalShadeEverglade ......yes and I would have licked his lips right on stage 2.
I just love the way that our day we used real instruments! The drums, piano, etc was unmatched. Mannnnn I miss those days when singers and were not engineered
I agree 💯
This is MTV unplugged. The modern day equivalent is NPR tiny desk concerts. Jodeci didn't have all instruments in regular concerts. They'd have drums and DeVante would bring out his piano for certain songs. They used a DJ for the rest of the songs.
K-ci was such a cutie with his short self!🥰 They all were easy on the eyes . The ONLY male group where all of the members were attractive.
He really was cute.
We are all lucky who were able to grow up & listen to Mary j bilge she didn't sing r&b she sang soul
Indeed 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
They killed it 👌the way K-Ci was looking at Mary while she was singing he looked like he was so in love with her.😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
He was
He was looking at her like this woman right her really love me
THat fool was HigH and Pissed off.
I know
He was and they were with each other but they were just to YOUNG N FAMOUS 2 APPRECIATE EACH OTHER.
Cuz i love you K-Ci and i need youuuu baby.... Mary killed it!!!!

mary mary mary mary mary
I loved this ad lib when K-Ci sang it ...
This is why the song worked so well, because it wasn't fake. They weren't just singing words somebody wrote for them
They had actually had a big arguement Backstage Prior to this Performance which is why it turned out to be one of the best they ever did
Wonder what that fight was about lolx. Cause that was good.!!!
@@jbritney6610 supposedly he was being to friendly with some of the female fans and Mary was not having it. She look like she was very sad in the beginning of the song
the ending part got meeeee wow, so much emotion!
CHILLS!!!
Pandora's Box for real girl
I don't understand why Jaguar Wright is claiming Mary J Blige can't sing. This prove something
Because she is coming from a bitter place. To try to air someone out because your career is no longer SPEAKS VOLUMES ABOUT HER! I love the fact that MJB has not responded because can't get dirty with the trash!! She's on a different level.
K CI VOICE THO !!!!!!!! OMGGGGG 😭😭😭😭😭😍😍😍😍😍😍
they could've been one of the best power couples to ever exist in the industry
True facts
Cocaine is a helluva drug
this duet is unreal !!
Now dis was a toxic relationship that made great music
I love it! That hood love is something else.....
I have been in love with this song for almost 30 years, and now I find an even more emotional version. I´m - speechless.
They were a couple. She was madly in love with him and it showed in this performance and her greatest album, some would say -I would say-My Life, is a product of that relationship.
The emotions, body language, chemistry, tension can't be coerced - it just poured out at just the precise time! 😉
💯💯💯💯
Gave me chills . . .
*K-Ci A VOCAL BEAST.*
When she said because I LOVE YOU KC😍😍😍😍 and HE said I LOVE TOO
TWO EARTH SIGNS together... They took us "out of earth" with this performance.
It NEVER GETS OLD!

Well this was their make up can you enjoy the passion in the bedroom after this performance
I KNEW IT
She also said when they got back to the dressing room… it got tore up in love making…. OMG…. This is sooo beautiful
It couldn’t have been this performance I thought it was on the arsenio hall show cause their energy on that was completely off
@@TheJalen1222 No it was this 🎶one. You can tell the tension and the passion going back and forth lol👍
i prefer this live version to the album cut
Yes I agree. 👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾
true that
I will ALWAYS love this performance. K-Ci really showcased his vocals on this one...maybe his most strongest solo vocal performance ever.
You can see that they loved each other in this performance, I had no idea that they were even together. This song is so beautiful
i come back to watch this every month
Always hitting this up on my playlist
Lawd this song this performance their chemistry FAV!!!
Whew K-Ci! From 3:12 to 3:27, pure perfection. LOVE when a male singer has a break in their voice like that. Adds to all the vulnerability and emotion they're putting in the song. Yes Lord! Mary was great as always.
When drugs and pain fuel the best music
2 Power House Vocalists...Amazing!!
When you sing from the depths of your soul you truly can feel it.
Thanks for sharing your amazing gifts.........
Classic. Two great artists singing their heart out. Applauds!!!!
Bring back memories great singers both of them especially kci Hailey
You can see/feel that crazy passion that they had for each other...
I knew this song was personal between the two it's seems evident to me given their body language and facial expressions to each other!
She cried backstage this was powerful I'm not sure if y'all saw two inocent souls fighting for love on this stage.
DO YOU FEEL THAT ENERGY AND THAT CHEMISTRY IT WAS UNDENIABLE RIGHT HERE I JUST LOVE IT AND CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT......THIS IS MY JAM IT GIVES ME LIFE ..........REAL TALK.
Mary J. Blige and K-Ci killed this performance they can sang this is real R&B music.
Looking at this video you can tell that Mary loved K-Ci more than he did her. Check the body language. She was all touchy feely....He was singing to the crowd mostly...she was singing to HIM!!!! Can't remember though was this at the beginning of their relationship or towards the end...Maybe he didn't want anyone to know they were fooling around. If they continued to make music together... MAN!!!! This Unplugged was the best....They should make a duet album together now.
one of the best LIVE vocals I have ever heard!
there's nothing better than this and I'm 77
I've seen this a thousand times and it still makes my flesh crawl. I hate drugs. such a waste.
This never gets old! It's 2020 and I still love this song!!
continuing to listen in Nov 2021 and into the forever century
2023 in this thing 🎉
Most underrated duo hit ever. This performance was so real
Man it was soo cute how Kci was looking at her while she was singing even though he looked a little pissed
Hoodtastic!!!!! Love THIS!!
Great post
The fact that they were fighting backstage before this performance is bananas and toxic AF 😩❤️😒😳🥺

Time to take notes:
Jodeci :

3 compilation albums
13 singles
13 music videos
Last studio album was in 2015 last studio album prior to 2015 was in 1995
Mary j Blige:.

Mary's discography consists of 14 top 10 studio albums 2 live albums two remix albums and over 80 singles-including more than 20 as a featured artist and who knows how many music videos eight of her 15 studio albums are multiplatinum
Don't get me wrong I love Jodeci but all I was saying was is that you cannot compare the group and or K-ci to the fabulous Mary j Blige..

Still sounds good in 2023!!❤
to think they just had one of the biggest fights before this
what away to say sorry DAMNNNN
That high as a kite love hit differently. I can watch this a million times. My era #80sBaby
I don't think I have watched it a million times but I know I have come close, even if it was only in my mind
when I saw this I became a Mary fan for life she rocked the hell out of this song from her gut
vocally.... Mary was not going to be denied
The passion and the vocals 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This song is a classic. The lyrics are amazing. This could be a hit today in 2020. ❤️❤️❤️

The fact that they had a "heated" argument before this is mind boggling.(raw talent)!!!🔥🔥🔥
Uptown was such a good lable, Andre should of keep it going
The greatest MTV Unplugged. Still got it. Still bump it. It's 04/2020
Mr. Christian Nirvana and Jay Z a distant second and third frfr
Agree....then to have kci and Jojo do lately.....another killer track
YES STILL LOVE WATCHING THIS VIDEO STILL ROCKING IN SEPT 2016

I’m bout to inbox Mary and kc and tell them they need to do this over again🥰their energy was unmatched
I would love to hear them perform live 2024 this was heart felt song deep..

THIS IS THE CUT RIGHT HERE. MARY J. BLIGE AND K-CI ARE TWO OF THE MOST POWERFUL, SOULFUL SINGERS EVER. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS SONG. THIS LIVE PERFORMANCE IS PHENOMENAL. THE WHOLE "WHAT'S THE 411" ALBUM IS CLASSIC!!! :) TEAM MARY J. BLIGE & K-CI!!
@ 5:25 Damn K-Ci! They were def feeling this performance. I just love it!
Music will never be like this again 😔 I’m glad I grew up in this era, 80s and 90s music help mold me coming into manhood and life lessons.
Mary and K-Ci killed this performance best duet ever love this song RealRnBMusic.
This song and performance is EVERYTHING!!!!
