Favorite line from Jordin “I want my ceiling to be my son’s floor”…felt this in my soul!!!🙌🏾❤️
maaaan Jordin Sparks is literally a real life Disney princess. Her aura is just so warm and bright - she just dropped a fantastic album as well.
The infectious smile and her spirit is amazing! She was phenomenal in Sparkle
Her top 5 is going to be amazing!
"My ceiling is my son's floor" heavy BARS🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'd like to see this podcast on the road. Would love a conversation with everyone on that Legacy Tour. You can get a good six episodes: Teddy Riley, Aaron and Damian Hall, Keith Sweat, Bobby Brown, Bell Biv Devoe, and Ralph and Johnny. Could be split in other ways too.
You thought that out pretty well. I hope they take you up on some of it.
Like how you think!!
I was thinking the same thing a few weeks back
This is an amazing idea! I am here for it!
Maybe someday. There are plenty of people to speak to that have something to say.
Refreshing to see Jordin Sparks . She carries herself with dignity, class, and grace . Beautiful without even showing you any hint of flesh. I love it .
I want to say that the podcast made me reflect on a quote my brother used to say. Once a task has once begun,never leave it til its won, be the labor great or small, do it well or not at all. You guys do it well. Love you J Valentine ❤
That's a good one!
Great quote!
My Mom said that same quote😊

Thank you!!
Naw, T- Pain is too much of a nice guy.
@@ww8407 🤷🏽♀️ receipts say otherwise. Timeline works out.
@@JennHayden what receipts because this isn't TPain's character.
It's gotten to the point that I watch these just to see everyone's top 5 lol I love that she came prepared.
I come for "I AINT SAYING NO NAMES** I BE CRACKING UOP HIM SINGING AND PLAYING
I'm enjoying the show so far. As a Canadian watcher I would love to see Deborah Cox and Tamia there one day. I'm sure you're both selective and have a schedule. Keep up the great content.
❤️🇨🇦 J
I wanna see both of them too! It's coming. I know it is.
Yaaaas!!! Love them both too! Tamia is my girl and soooo underrated and overlooked in this industry. Debra has done the club/dance mix scene and overseas but both don’t get the credit/accolades that their talent is due!! 💯✌🏾
Melanie Fiona and Keisha Chanté
Yes I am waiting for these 2 as well! Two of my faves 💜
Great to see Jordin Sparks on here. Her career has gone from strength to strength. She is an excellent example of using your talent wisely. Speaking of using talent wisely. Would like to see:
- Brandy
- Ginuwine
- The original Dru Hill members
- Jodeci
- Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins
- Missy Elliott
Fantastic list!
Jase of Soul 4 Real
Perfectly said!!
Usher & ne-yo as well
Best list thus far! ❤
Her humility is so refreshing. 160 records is nuts. This album will definitely be great. Thank you Jay and Tank. I wanna know who her I ain't saying no names is so bad.
Jordin's story is a clear example of the quote, "IT WAS MEANT TO BE!" I love her persistence and heart for singing. She's extremely talented and her spirit is just so PURE!!!! MAN I LOVE THIS PODCAST!!! R&B MONEY is so important to the culture and we need these stories. We need these moments. We need these conversations. J and Tank just understand the assignment every episode.
I CRACKED UP at J’s joke about one in ear and one OUT especially when he said folks are laughing ALL around silently !!!! And, J’s tears!!! Hilarious !😊 Tank saying that’s really NOT a good joke and Jordan’s whistling!
J be sayin some crazy stuff and then his laugh makes it funnier lol
Tank was hilarious singing Smokey Robinson 🤣🤣🤣 I am dying
I love Tank’s version of “I Can’t Make You Love Me” too Omg!! It’s so beautiful. 💖💖💖
Thank you for having Jordin Sparks on today! I love her spirit and she is a great storyteller! She is exactly what we didn't know we needee!
Let's get Craig David on this pod. Big both sides of the Atlantic and a pioneer in the UK R&B/Garage scene.
🔥🔥🔥
Facts. Craig David is very underrated. I would definitely tune in. Born to Do It album is a classic
@@JWill951 the story goes on is better fs
Indeed!
Thank you for this he’s one of my favourite artist and deffo the UK 🇬🇧 king of R&B
Tank, I cant make you love me is AMAZING. I love the original and Tank's version of the song too.
This podcast is the best. It allows each artist, producer, song writers, etc.., to have a voice to speak on their lives in the industry. Some stories are very interesting, but outstanding work to Tank and J. Valentine. Hopefully you guys can get Ledisi, Maxwell, Joe, Donell Jones etc..,
the Whitney stories touched me ❤ what an amazing way to experience your idol/role model
I love the humor and energy they bring to each interview, they truly set the tone for each R& B guest...from Rodeo' to Rodeo 🏇😂
Huge Ups to you fellas for deciding to invite Jordan Sparks on the show!!! Her natural poise, intelligence and sense of reservation.....more than her style, talent and beauty, offered a major upgrade to the entire atmosphere of this episode....as it demonstrated an extreme versatility that was required in order to masterfully engage in conversation with this particular artist! A true class act! Keep it coming!!! A sincere thanks to you!!!
I love Jordin she’s the GOOD GIRL of pop/r&b I love how she’s always been modest in appearance and attitude a really great role model for young women in todays hyper sexual culture.
Some people might be mad about it...but its true. Im hoping modesty trends again since everything else seems to.
it’s really really sad when folks can’t compliment someone without putting someone else down. grow the fuck up.
@@shutupkthxbyexo thank you for your opinion
@@shutupkthxbyexo literally… the last part was so unnecessary
She went through a moment where she tried to sexed up her image a bit but that didn't last long. It also wasn't believable.
This Whitney story has me in tears !! What an incredible woman!!! ❤😢
C'mon Jordan with the bags! "My ceiling is my sons floor" I felt this❤. Jay and Tank thank you for this pod!! It's the flowers for me
I was not ready for the “Top 5” segment song remix today 🥴🥲
Jordin is a RARE talent jewel. Beyond a light and HUMBLE!!! This was *chefs kiss* 🤌🏾💋
Tank top 5 segment piano sangin be killin me 😂🤣. Dat man cold
@@draenation265 and J be impressed like a big ass kid too, everytime!!
“One Step At A Time” is one of my top two favorite songs. Me and my kids scream this. I remember my oldest sticking her neck out to sing the bridge of the third verse and it makes me cry so hard. That song has created a memory I can never forget.
It is so refreshing to have Jordin on after the "homey" pt. 1 & 2 podcast.
Jordin is so wholesome how can you not adore her…
If I was famous for anything my supporters would probably hate me cause what you’re not gonna do is interrupt me while I’m eating or with my family. I’m still a human being bro so treat me as such.
Love her confidence and perseverance, its so encouraging. She developed the love for it early on. That's huge! Her talent speaks for itself.
I went through the same thing Jordan years ago. I got to the field, auditioned, and they told me no. It really hurt my confidence. I wish I had someone to push me because back in the early 2000s there was a "type" they were going for. If you had the wrong producer and they what they wanted they would say no. fast forward 10- 20yrs later I sing lead on my praise team, I know I've always been able to sing but cudos to you for having the fire to keep going.
Congrats to you!
The way Tank is explaining what was just said...in a louder enunciated voice...like the proudest Uncle who understood it...is Great
Jordan Sparks was a breath of fresh air. I've never followed her or known much of her music; but her beautiful personality has drawn me in. This was like chatting with an old friend. I'll try not to just pull up a chair or slide in her booth while she's earing🤣. I'll wait
I love Jordin! Such a class act...my favorite of her songs was No Air with Chris Brown. Tank and J Valentine.....keep it going!!❤❤❤❤
Speaking of "No Air" what a track that was. Yall need to get Chris on this podcast asap. And "Next To You" will always be my fav song from her👌
Chris is a very busy man.. it prob wont be till next freaking year for him lol
what a BREATH OF FRESH AIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Ready and waiting to hear her story. One of my favorite voices
Yesss after I watched the letoya Luckett & Estelle interview I was hoping they would have her on.
I loved this episode. Voted for Jordin several times during Idol and saw her perform and met her several times. Always rooting for her. Tank did NOT just sing Smokey's Gang Bangin 😭☠️
My first time seeing her like this..im not into pop music but now Im a fan of her as a person..she good people.
Jordin is so refreshing to watch and that smile is incredible.
I want to see Kandi Burruss on here. She has done so much in RnB & pop.
Another great episode Tank’s top 5 segment is incredible every time
These past few episodes been boring as hell. Who’s the booking agent of this show 🥴🥴
@@Blueridge4000 you could always unsubscribe if you don’t like the content but to it was a dope episode
Me too!!!
I love how Tank’s top 5 song gets hilariously outrageous every time😂 J was on fire with the jokes. Love Jordin’s story. This was an all around Great episode❤️
❤❤😂😂😂 you guys are hitting it out of the park every week love the interview
Love love this Jordin Sparks interview! Fantastic! Whitney Houston and Jordin Sparks and Sparkle movie memories so amazing. The Whitney Houston Bible memories ...love interview.🥰🎙️🎹🎵🎙️🥰
Very good conversation! Love Jordin’s lighthearted wholesomenesses. She’s amazing!
Jordin Sparks is so delightful and beautiful. And she is right that Tank version of “I Can’t Make You Love Me” is CRAZY GOOD… my second fave Tank song after “Slow” with J
She's a great interviewee! As a daughter of a preacher and Naval officers, you definitely learn to adjust/be adaptable/cultured. I am grateful for my life experiences!
Loved learning more about Jordin's journey and her share about Whitney😭🙏🏿Another great episode R&B Money Team. Thank you!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
"I don't really go nowhere anyway." J Valentine is hilarious. This interview was so good. I have always marveled at Jordan's journey. I was so upset when she shared on Wendy (I believe) how a "said singer" treated her, so I was so happy when she and her husband met, married, and had their son. What a beautiful spirit and positive energy!🥰🥰🥰
That Kelly Clarkson winning moment was definitely a moment like this.
Definitely pull up on Simon with that pooh shiesty mask because he was Puffy after puffy. Hearing this young lady’s story, gave me a different respect for her and her talent. I can’t wait to drink “Tequila Mayne.”
Side note can we get JOE on the podcast please?
Yaaaassss to Joe
Love how y'all can adlib & improve but always refocus and bring it back to topic so that we always get the story… Talented is an understatement when it comes to facilitation skills! No Air is one of the best duets of all time , so thankful you gave this amazing voice a platform for the culture. "This nigga eaten slow" LMAO….. Snacky Chan/Snack King Cole… "My ceiling is my sons floor" Bar!
Her "I aint saying no names" pissed me off. I can't believe they did her like that!
Great episode!! No Air still a huge hit. I was just at a CB concert here in the Netherlands, show was amazing! Everybody went crazy when he sang No Air.
Great interview with Jordin! Very relaxed vibe with great stories. I needed to hear her Whitney story proves she was the Queen.Her top 5 amazing! All the greats and legends. Boyz II Men Water Runs Dry is definitely in my top 5.
Thanks for listening
I SMILED THROUGH THIS ENTIRE INTERVIEW… I NEED to go back through Jordin’s discography- Fauntleroy STRIKES again💚💚💚!!! & Come through with MC in the top 5… like stop PLAYING, LEGENDARY!!!!
Always love Jordan! Her aura is positive ❤ I’ve been rooting for her since American idol ❤❤❤
Come on yall get Amerie on here!!
YES YES YES
To this day Sparkle is one of my favorite music films aside Glitter. 🧡
My ceiling is my son's floor. Speak it 🗣️
Love her , every movie ,and songs❤ Glad to see her smile is still BIG as ever !!!!!
Yessss!!! No one ever mentions Earth Song! It’s my favorite of Michael’s.
This episode was a refreshing return to how the podcast usually flows with most of the guests who have come on, cool and relaxed...and so damn funny😂
Also, Jordin is well spoken and has learned a great deal. Glad to the see the realities of the industry didn't break her soul.
Not me crying during the Whitney story 🥺 Amazing episode!
Thank you Jordin for saying my favorite song by Tank!!!!! I am so happy she gave flowers to that song, cause his version his different and it stays top tier on my Love song list. I just hope he sings it on the R&B Money Tour
i hollered when tank said chris brown jacket that was given to him was worn a few times hahahaha
and now im at the part of the podcast to where I pause and go rewatch or listen to whats being talked about lol. Definitely rewatching Sparkle this week
I saw her face and instantly thought of Sparkle! I gotta rewatch as well
Definitely stopped to rewatch them perform No Air on Idol!😂
Great to see Jordin. Doing so well. Love her music. Definitely would like to see her and Chris Brown perform No Air live
I love Jordan she seems so humble. I would love a espiode with Jason weaver,monica,J valentine, jodeci, swv , Fantasia,etc.
Salute to this woman's work ethic and perseverance. Double Respect to her husband. She gives me Great Wife Vibes..
Jordin: "tell me how my suppose to breathe with no air"
12 year old me: "scientifically, I don't think you can"
2:01:54 HER STORY IS 😡😡😡 WHO THE HECK WAS THAT??!! Anyway…this was such a great episode! That Whitney Houston segment was so NEEDED!! 🙌🏾❤️🙌🏾
Hmm......was it perhaps the last guest on this podcast before her🤔??? "He made it all about himself".....
@@TheRetroWoman80 Tyrese?lol!
@@nylianicole22 🤷♀️never know
I think it's Trey Songz.....but just a guess
i think tyrese or t pain or trey
Why am I crying hearing Jordon speak about Whitney Houston!! Momma Whitney's life was so inspiring I found my voice singing her songs stretching my whole being lol. I loved this interview great job guys! R&B Moneeeeyyyyyyy!!
She genuinely seems like a really decent human being
We love J Sparks! 😍
One of the best interviews in this podcast I have watched. Jordin understand the meaning of humanity in how she does her business.
Big Up to Tank ang J Valentines for creating this platform for us to know our musicians better.
“ We goin get it bacc in blood 🩸 “ 😆🔥
Fly with one wing from the sparkle soundtrack rocked my entire world and a young girl growning up. Jordin you are truly 1 of 1 😍😍
"We don't usually do this, but .." - That Kels reference was hilarious 😂
Jordan is sooooo beautiful. Thank you for having her. I have No Air and Battlefield on my Playlist. Amazing voice, and her range is crazy. ❤️

I’m just here for J.Valentine’s sweater hehe 🥰. Nah, but for real...Love Jordin Sparks ❤.
Great interview! Jordin seems like a sweetheart. Tank and Jay make me laugh on EVERY single podcast! 😂❤
❤
Tank & J, my bad fellas... I’ve been watching and loving the podcast for a few months and just now realized that I wasn’t subscribed. So now I am officially down wit the authority on all things R&B. I appreciate y’all. ✌🏾
NEW EDITION needs to come on!🔥
It would take 6 parts . Too long . I love New Edition
I love the Whitney story.
Tank and Jordan really talk with their hands, it's pretty cool!
Can we get brandy , jazmine Sullivan , yebba , tori kelly , Miguel , or Chris brown on here !!!! Either one would be so fireeeeee 🔥
Jordin seems like such a genuine sweetheart who just so happens to be able to sing her face off. ❤
Love Jordan! She is not let the music business change her. Great job!
J’s sweater is super cool.
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
It’s October 2024 and I’m still catching up on past shows, however Tank I had to comment on the Vertigo issue you had to work through . I experienced it for almost a week 5 years ago, and I did some research on natural herbs, and I found Ginkgo Biloba. It is the best thing EVER that resolved my vertigo issue and yeah I continue to take it! Tank continue represent the DMV moving forward. Tank you are in my personal top five R & B singers from the DMV. To Jordan, young lady get your flowers! Fellas the show is awesome.
Her interview on tpain podcast was great too!!!!! This was EVERYTHING
I would love to hear a song from JS and Usher ..... hope it happens🙏🙏 Again a great interview I haven't heard much from Jordin in a minute being from the Caribbean, but after this interview, I can't wait to hear new music from her...
I’m ready to see Breezy on the show.. I saw their performance live on the “Under the Influence Tour” it was amazing…
You are perfect....
It's amazing how I could feel the emotion of Jordin Sparks as she stated what Whitney Houston said to her...
The gift always gonna show up (in any room)! 🙌🏽 That's right!! 🔥💙
1:06:05 I literally listened to “No Air” last night at least 3-4 times!!! 😂😊
It’s on MULTIPLE playlists that I’ve created… but when a song makes it to my
“Fave R&B” playlist… it’s a song that’s moving either my mind, heart, soul, or body… but most times ALL OF THE ABOVE!!!!!
With her beautiful self!!!
