    I fell in love with this women after I heard this song. We need more REAL songs with messages like this for the American generation to grow up to.

    Shes killing it. A undiscovered treasure. I am so glad she has changed. Not many female R&B artists can dodge the "cookie cutter" style but Jhene is the same chick and actually has talented. Shes definitely going places!! U go Jhene :))

    Still in here in 2022. The realist lyrics and song. “Lovedddd her. Now she’s mainstream and singing about licking it up and sucking it up . Smh 🤦🏾‍♀️. (Jhene Aiko- on my way)

    I think this song used to be on her old Myspace page along w/ Pain, Breathe You & Wait No More. Back then she was "Daughter of R&B."

    I hope she adds "GONNA LOVE YOU ANYWAY" to her album. I remember first hearing it on the B2K remixes CD.
    ADD "GONNA LOVE YOU ANYWAY"
    ADD "GONNA LOVE YOU ANYWAY"
    ADD "GONNA LOVE YOU ANYWAY"
    ADD "GONNA LOVE YOU ANYWAY"
    ADD "GONNA LOVE YOU ANYWAY"
    ADD "GONNA LOVE YOU ANYWAY"

    [Verse 1]
    Your insecurities are killin' me
    Threatened by what you see from dudes on TV
    But you know that they don't phase me
    They ain't got nothing on my baby
    So just chill why don't 'cha
    'Cause I don't want 'cha
    To feel insecure 'cause even if
    He is a rapper, singer or actor
    (I know one thing for sure)
    [Chorus]
    I'd rather be on the bus with you
    Then in a coupe with a dude that I barely knew
    I'd rather be with you, I'd rather be with you
    I'd much rather be broke with you, there to hold me
    Than rich with someone that leaves me lonely
    I'd rather be with you, I'd rather be with you
    [Verse 2]
    Over all the money in the world
    I choose to be your girl 'cause
    I'm just not impressed with Gucci and Prada
    No, you don't need 'nada to win my love
    So don't worry 'bout losing me to
    Some guy with more money than you, 'cause
    My love don't cost a thing and that is why I say
    [Chorus]
    I'd rather be on the bus with you
    Then in a coupe with a dude that I barely knew
    I'd rather be with you, I'd rather be with you
    I'd much rather be broke with you, there to hold me
    Than rich with someone that leaves me lonely
    I'd rather be with you, I'd rather be with you
    [Bridge 1]
    Baby, your love is worth more than a million bucks
    And every time I'm with you, I'm dreaming
    Don't wanna wake up
    I could care less bout how you dress or if you're
    In the flyest whip, baby, I don't care
    I'd rather be
    [Chorus]
    I'd rather be on the bus with you
    Then in a coupe with a dude that I barely knew
    I'd rather be with you, I'd rather be with you
    I'd much rather be broke with you, there to hold me
    Than rich with someone that leaves me lonely
    I'd rather be with you, I'd rather be with you
    [Bridge 2]
    La, da, da, da, da, da
    I'd rather be…
    La, da, da, da, da
    I'd rather be…
    La, da, da, da, da, da, da
    I'd rather be…
    La, da, da, da, da, da
    I'd rather be…
    [Chorus]
    I'd rather be on the bus with you
    Then in a coupe with a dude that I barely knew
    I'd rather be with you, I'd rather be with you
    I'd much rather be broke with you, there to hold me
    Than rich with someone that leaves me lonely
    I'd rather be with you, I'd rather be with you
    [Outro]
    I'd rather be, on the bus with you
    Then in a coupe with a dude that I barely knew
    I'd rather be with you, I'd rather be with you

    just because she's doing a couple songs with someone doesn't mean she automatically sold her soul. there are ways to take different paths to get a little mainstream exposure.

  • @down4guyana
    @down4guyana 12 років тому

    why would the music industry want her to change her music? i highly doubt thats true. all she really sings about is love. she just needs a label that will push her and promote her.

  • @YoKinah
    @YoKinah 12 років тому

    Well, I personally don't think we have say in what others deserve or not when it comes to something as big as fame. That's just me... Her music has influenced my life for over 4 years in the biggest way so the last thing I will do is hate on her :) lol she's awesome! I think she can do what she wants to do; "mainstream" or "underground"... but I feel like if she keeps her soul, her ideas, her individuality, & not sell out... she'll keep her fan base & inspire others to do the same.

    I think she's better off underground... no possibilities of becoming a industry puppet, she'll stay real, she'll get the money & not the other who tell what to do & how to make her music... I think she's got too much of a conscience to be in the same boat with all the other ridiculous overrated mainstream artists
