I was Devantes assistant for years. They are literally my favorite R&B group. Just imagine being in the studio with them. Or being on tour. These are my guys!!!!!
I've seen almost all the artists that you named! I don't know about them being Hip-hop soul because most of them did not Rap or have a lot of rappers in their songs!
@@princedejour2686 It wasn't really about just the idea of having a rapper on the song. Both groups I mentioned literally had a rapper within (Left Eye and Mr. Dalvin, respectively), while Mary and R. Kelly would occasionally rap themselves. It was mainly about the production styles in their songs. If you go and listen to all those artists I mentioned best works in the 90s along with others such as Aaliyah, Brandy, Total, Faith Evans, SWV, etc. they often sang over instrumentals with a hip hop influence and many of their remixes would have a popular rapper of the time. New Jack transitioned to hip hop soul, which then transitioned to neo soul in the mid to late 90s (Erykah Badu, D'Angelo, Bilal, Jill Scott, etc)...
@@Drejac1it was all about K-Ci back in the day. We all agree that JoJo is a great singer. Think about UGK. Pimp C was the only one people talked about. But we know that Bun B is the superior rapper.
Devante Swing with his production was a savage in the 90’s! Missy, Aaliyah, Ginuwine, and others learned something from him. I think he did a few songs for H Town as well. K-Ci had that aggressive church voice. Jojo had that falsetto quartet church voice. Jodeci are the Bad Boys of R&B in the 90’s!
Oh my God I had a crush in high school that looked like a cross between Ginuwine and Chico DeBarge. Yes, I did stalk that boy😂😂😂😂 It’s all Princes fault…
@@jaydixon32 I blame alot of stuff on him. Like the fact that I’m just getting into Metallica, gnr, Motley Crue and Motörhead the past two years because I was so busy chasing him for 35 years😳
You have been introduced to a different side of R&B. Everything JODECI is a banger. They were known as The Bad Boys of R&B. Forever my Lady. Fienning, Stay, Freaking You, Come and Talk to Me, Cry for You and more.
Jodeci changed the game. Because they weren't an R&B group. They were an R&B band K-Ci and JOJO we're the lead vocalist, Delvin played Drums, Devante played piano wrote and produced 95% of music.
Jodeci was that one R&B group that the thugs and street dudes could fw, because they came across as street cats with the tattoos, boots, leather and bad boy behavior. They were the first to inspire that whole subgenre.
So many people in your generation were likely conceived to this very song. Welcome to Jodeci. That 90s r&b shaped HARD. I still rock this album in heavy rotation 20+ years later. 😊
I read the 1st 25- 30 comments, and all of y'all on point! JODECI is to r&b what Iverson was to the NBA, what the 1st Ironman did to the Marvel movie franchise. Jodeci changed the freaking game, they were Different, they were special, they were a breath of fresh Air!
Us that grew up in the 90's know how hard Jodeci hit every time it was played back in the day. Its amazing how that feeling has never changed all these years. Amazing group man. Great Review Shorty!!!!
Chills Chills Chills!!! Yes girl feel it!!!! JODECI WILL ALWAYS BE THAT GROUP AND DEVANTE SWING WILL ALWAYS BE THAT PRODUCER! shout out to my people that was around for this in the 90’s❤ And shout out to the younger generation for appreciating it❤❤❤❤❤
I saw three 🤤🤤🤤!!! Yep. You in trouble now with Jodeci, Ashley!!!!! Great group. Thugish life that progressed from New Edition to Boys II Men to Jodeci. The 80s and 90s were something else!!!! Glad I lived through them!!!!
Its crazy my friend worked for a radio station when they were putting out demos i actually have one of the demo cds still 6 months later they were on every radio station in the country
Imagine growing up listening to Jodeci, New Edition, Boys 2 Men, Mary J, etc…And your kids today listening to shit like Sexxy Red or some fucking Korean pop band. Crazy how far we let them pull our music down.
I hollered when that intro came on cause that’s exactly how I felt in the 90’s and still to this day Devante voice jesusssssss the whole group was and still is the greatest
And always remember...when you see Ginuwine...Tank...Chris Brown...Pleasure P....etc...THIS is WHO they come from the school of! The arrangement was PITCH PERFECT on this damn song! Jo Jo to lead off with the soft touch and K-Ci to go KRAZY! Yeah...i was about 12 when this came out but good music ia good music. And THIS IS my song to my wife all the time! 😂 Just well written and executed.🔥🔥🔥
Yep, Jodeci was that GROUP early 90's was all jodeci. Great reaction but again Ashley if you have can you react to Jodeci "Feenin" these guys music was FIRE in the day.
Jodeci changed the game. Artists now don't even realize that they are influenced by Jodeci. But you definitely have to do "What About Us" and "Time and Place" by Jodeci.
Welcome to Jodeci. Not a bad song in their catalog!! 2 sets of brothers that changed how R&B sounded!!! If not for the paid request, it would still be in your best interest to do a DEEP dive into their music on your own. Top tier of R&B!!!!!
90’s R&B will do that girl, it can heat up a room you better watch out. K-Ci and JoJo can sing the hell out of a song. You could check out their albums. When Jodeci split up. K-Ci and JoJo put out albums.
Nowadays they will call this simp music however back in 1993 this was 🧨 I had this cassette tape album when you had to get records from the store this was one of those albums where babies were born into this world
Now imagine being in high school when this album dropped. I don't think people realize the impact Jodeci and BBD had on the music industry back in the 90s. R&B isn't what is today without those two groups.
😂 I had to stop working in the house just to watch your reaction to this song! They one of the main reasons why the 90s is the go-to for love songs. Any man that could hit K-Ci or Jo-Jo’s notes automatically got the panties.
Mrs Ashley you are definitely the epitome of what natural beauty should really look like. These young and older women should take notes. Doing too much with your looks with enhancement, instead of being naturally beautiful, will keep them single as usual and always. God Bless.
Jodeci is one of the truly great R&B froups from the 90's! I had all of their CD's! Tgey were unique becaue heg dressed like some street dudes or rappers at first but their style improved in lator years!
Here in Baltimore they had a club called Hammerjacks with a Sunday teen night. There was a part of the night when they would this song and another one by R Kelly. The girls was ready to go after them two songs.
Great reaction! IMO, their best song. It was like the Forever My Lady sound transitioning into the Diary of a Mad Band sound and blended in together. How on earth was this song not a single? It should've been their first for this album. This was also IMO, K-Ci at his peak!
Silk was tough. People forget about them. I saw a lot of the groups live back in the 90's. They were definitely among the best live that I saw. They could blow..
This is the best production jodeci has put together. You can literally hear it. Its perfect
Devante's production levels till this day unmatched.
This is hands down my favorite Jodeci song ❤
I was Devantes assistant for years. They are literally my favorite R&B group. Just imagine being in the studio with them. Or being on tour. These are my guys!!!!!
This group was a major change in the music industry
What a Era 💥
Jodeci, Mary, R. Kelly and TLC basically spearheaded the transition of popular R&B from the New Jack Swing era to the hip hop soul era.....
I've seen almost all the artists that you named! I don't know about them being Hip-hop soul because most of them did not Rap or have a lot of rappers in their songs!

No other R&B group like Jodeci. Hands down the kings of R&B groups.
PURE FACTS!!!!!!!!
Yep they are the expectation!!!!
Dru Hill was an R&B group like them. I like KC and Jo Jo better but Dru Hill was not too far behind
This is one of the greatest albums of the 90's. Beginning to end great.
it sure is! From beginning to the end. We knew the whole album.
And it was the 1st track on the album. Had mfs like whooooooo before they even started singing with that musical intro
Jo Jo doesn’t get enough props for his silky smooth vocals. K-Ci’s rough soulful vocals balance him out so well.
He always get credit
I agree 💯
@@Drejac1it was all about K-Ci back in the day. We all agree that JoJo is a great singer. Think about UGK. Pimp C was the only one people talked about. But we know that Bun B is the superior rapper.
@@robertroberts5283But Pimp produced most of the early stuff and stood out a lot but Bun was the rapper's rapper out the two.
That's why Jojo sung like hell om the KC and Jojo album. He led damn near all the songs.
This group is the absolute ESSENCE of 90's R&B. They were the shift in the R&B culture!!!
💯🎯💯🎯
It's 2024, and it's still a banger.
Devante Swing with his production was a savage in the 90’s! Missy, Aaliyah, Ginuwine, and others learned something from him. I think he did a few songs for H Town as well. K-Ci had that aggressive church voice. Jojo had that falsetto quartet church voice. Jodeci are the Bad Boys of R&B in the 90’s!
Add Super producer Timberland to list that learned from Devante
Oh my God I had a crush in high school that looked like a cross between Ginuwine and Chico DeBarge. Yes, I did stalk that boy😂😂😂😂
It’s all Princes fault…

Jodeci had the women/girls on a chokehold in the 90s. Even me🙋🏾♀️
Guilty.🙋🏾♀️😂
Jodeci was that one R&B group that the thugs and street dudes could fw, because they came across as street cats with the tattoos, boots, leather and bad boy behavior. They were the first to inspire that whole subgenre.
And the irony of that was there were all gospel/church kids.
@RD-zj6vc they came from the church but I know for a fact that KCi and Jojo was in dem streets. 😂
Yep
🎯
Can we please go back to the 90s!!!
Their edge is what set them apart.
You’re welcome sincerely the 90s
Jodeci " Love you for life " That's my jam
Yeah that one hit fa sho
This album was better than forever my lady to me.
Agreed!

BEST MALE GROUP EVER
Jodeci changed the game. Artists now don't even realize that they are influenced by Jodeci.
But you definitely have to do "What About Us" and "Time and Place" by Jodeci.
The best r&b group of all time periodddd!!! Yes that harmony was killer the 90s you had to really sungggg!!!
This group was one of the first R&B groups that shared a fashion vibe with gangsta rappers

And they are still doing it to this day
Without question, this is Jodeci’s greatest song, and it was never officially released! And the way K-Ci blanks out on that second verse!!! 🔥🔥🔥
