At this point in Lyfe's career, the world was just simply not ready for that level of purity and authentic music. For that reason, I don't think that he got the credit that he so greatly deserved. He was way ahead of his time and his albums were literally a musical diary of his life experiences. The good and the bad but beautiful in every aspect! 💯
2023. I was born in 19966. I remember my mom playing his album over and over. I didnt understamd when i was a little. I'm 26 now I'll be 27 December 4th and I've cried and smiled and studied his music. My mom passed Juneteenth 2020. The entire album hits differently. Thank you LYFE. you gave life to my mom and me from you words. Thank you. A lot of memories
We need to bring *Neo-soul* back. The Era of Lyfe, Musiq Soulchild, India Irie, Meshell Ndegeocello, Anthony Hamilton & many more when these artist carried a guitar and always had a story to sing about.😅
Most of them are independent artist so they do not get the “radio play” like they use to (the auto tune R&B singers and the auto tune Rappers hijacked all the music that is played on the radio).🤣😂🤣 I can find new music on Apple and so forth (India Irie, Anthony Hamilton and so forth).
January 2020... still listening. When I got out of jail this album was on repeat. A lot of people who knew me, ain't understand why. But shit, this entire album was peace, healing, and spiritual for me. I went through MOST of what this album was talking about. I CAN say it helped grow me... Lyfe with the Y is so underrated. #FACTS
I'm a die-hard metalhead (Slipknot and Lamb of God), and I LOVE this song!! Beautiful music, and beautiful message. I went through my mid teens with this song.
"and I just can't say for sure, if the baby's yours" ... "would you rather have me tear you away from the o ly family you know" Man!! Our deepest fears are some people's realities... 2021 and it hits harder cos one is an adult now...
Omg y’all 😭 I remember listening to this when I was a little girl & crying my little eyes out. Now that I’m grown with my own baby, I understand how heavy this song is 😢 but it still slides !!!
You ever feel like ur tired but don't want to give up cause you have so much to live for but don't understand why God put you through this... "I just can't give up now"
i don't think enough people give her credit for her and lyfe's version of the song. i seriously like they're version the best. Unpopular opinion: i love fantasia but i think she exaggerated the song a bit too much but if you've ever heard lala's version it just flowed and her voice did so much justice; its just better.
@@nastassjawilliams3182 yall so busy trying to hate on Fantasia and Lala Brown didn’t even sing this originally. It’s a lady named Erin. Lala sang on Lyfe’s song “S.E.X.”
@@msawmusic and then you did too much. No one was hating on fantasia, I’m actually a fan of her music. My OPINION was Erin or whoever sung it… it sounded better because it was simple. Don’t ever at me assuming you know something.
Lyfe, this is why you a true artist. You sing about things that matter. No money, no degrading woman, no materialist songs. You talk to the heart and the souls. Keep it up. Only God knows how many relationships you’ve help stay cause of this song.
It's July 7th 2021 & I'm STILL listening to Lyfe's music/teachings!! I grew up on Lyfe Jennings' music along with the greats before him (Wonder; Vandross; Cash; Joel; E, W & F; Marvin Gaye; .. I remember hearing "Must Be Nice" & thinking/feeling that this man was really something special & very talented!! I followed him & his music ever since.. There hasn't been anyone close with his unique sound, or his special talents, or his brand. He also always had a laudable mission to save young women from themselves & from men that only want to do wrong by them. Also, he taught people about love.
I’m here AGAIN after hearing the original (with Erin) on Pandora! It’s a MUST that the Fantasia version is played!!!! She👏🏾be👏🏾sangin’👏🏾this👏🏾song👏🏾down!!!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
When Fantasia SINGS...I just had to click pause cuz I didn't know what was happening to me. Twas a mix of an electrical fiery icy blasting piercing thru some part of my brain and soul! GAWSHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Who sings on the album version? When I downloaded it, there seemed to be another female's voice on it, not 'Tasia's. Is it LaLa, the young lady from S.E.X that was murdered?
Wow, everytime I see this, the lil man steals my hear 😢 He did such a good job acting, his eyes filled with innocence, everytime he looked at his dad. Basically saying “whatever is going on with you and momz pop, I still need You, more than you will ever know, I love you man, please don’t leave me” ❤
If two people truly love each other, truth should always be on the forefront. And unconditional love would forgive as long as those two people show that those mistakes would not be made again. forgivness is essential along with understanding.If a man is admitting his mistakes and showing you different, embrace his effort and love him back. All too many times people break up homes because one cant forgive the other.
Candie Reece Thanks! just speaking from experience. It takes a really mature person to truly forgive. getting past the pain is essential, because no one can really get over the pain 100%. you learn to move past it :-)
This songs made me sing as a kid. I feel the pain behind this song as a man though. I was made from a very similar situation & I found out when I was 15. When I first found out I thought it didn’t bother me but I became angry & felt betrayed for so long like I’d been lied to my entire life. I pulled it together though. Now I have two kids of my own & im fighting to be a good father, even loving kids who aren’t biologically mine & let me tell you, it take a real man to love a child that another man made with the woman that you love. We weren’t together when the kids were made but man it hurts like we were. I wanted to marry this woman. I’ve been thinking about so much lately & idk what to do. Anyways, pray for me & for anybody else out there going through something similar, chin up. You gotta make the best decision for you & yours. I apologize for the long statement. I just don’t really have anybody to talk to that won’t judge. I know I can always go to God though. Be blessed y’all 💜
💯 bro you really real for expressing yourself and actually getting it off your chest this is the first step to forgiving and actually getting your happiness… a post can be as long as it is but if it has facts and real aspects of a life bro don’t worry bout it… I hope everything works out and you find your happiness. 🙏🏾
@@hyperboy567 I appreciate the love man. This world is tough sometimes but it seems like there’s always little things that restores my faith in humanity. I don’t expect ppl to read my comments most of the time so I appreciate you man.
What if my one mistake, had the potential to break .. up a happy home 🏡 would you wanna know ? Hypothetically of course .. what if this happen to you , what would you want me to do ? So deep .. I love this song
I love this song n video its crazy when u think about all things u have been through in your relationships and you stayed was it meant was it like this!? God tried n tried to keep u with whom he choose for you but ur to hard headed to stay in line 😣🤔
