Took the words right out of my mouth!! Maaan. i was like gyad damn jojo is going off. He definitely doesn't get enough credit for his vocal ability. Too Good!!
Jojo’s vocals are absolutely perfect throughout the whole entire performance, on key, absolutely velvet and smooth, simply beautiful. And his range! Whew he was slept on
My all-time favorite group. Nothing comes close to the Jodeci format, when they were all young and healthy. The talent and charisma are immaculate. JoJo was walking around making that shit look so easy. He and K-Ci compliment eachother well, and DeVante Swing remains in my top 5 favorite producers/artist.
When you realize they were young but still seasoned, confident and not afraid of that Apollo stage. They were bound to be successful. That good ole church upbringing...
Devante literally was a musical genius back then wrote every bit song of Jodeci we know and love and have become iconic. Put the group together the man knew what he was doing
@@youngharrio lies... They had all their songs on their demo tape before even being signed. Al b helped arrange, produce and did backgrounds on their 1st album tho.
Tre W i wanted to riff like kci as a kids as a singer with a soft high voice i cryed as a kids cause of how bad i w Wanted a strong powerful deep voice like Kci
Jojo is underrated! Are Devante and Dalvin even singing because all I hear is JoJo's perfectly pitched tenor singing the chorus, singing the harmonies. K-ci's voice is raspy and powerful, and his brother's voice compliments him. I wish they could have gotten themselves together.
Just found this version...and can’t stop playing it! Their voices are crisp and loud over the studio beat, and it sounds amazing!! Greatest R&B group of all time - no doubt. Jodeci 4 Life!
My favorite R&B group of All-time..I remember my moms bumping this when I was a kid.These boyz been the truth since Day 1..Devante Swing is a Musical Genius! the way he wrote,produced, arranged, and played all instruments for their debut album "Forever My Lady"..this dude is 1 of the reasons I got into production #Jodeci4Life
Gunuwine is the Devantes cousin.... but u are right about the respect. They fail to mention him when they talked about legendary producers. They talk about timbo as if devante didnt find and mold the whole damn crew lol
Thanks K-Ci for visiting Baltimore, Maryland in the 1992 at the club Volcano's...plus shaking my hand and later on talking to me, it was a blast and honor, continue singing!!!
Both are excellent singers and carried the song. You have one who can go soprano and one baritone I think it is called. They flow with one another smoothly.
@@mooret212 yes i agree. if you watch their mtv unplugged performance of Lately you’ll see them sing verse for verse with each other and they both sound great (not sure if it’s really verse for verse both you’ve most likely heard the song 1000xs so you know what I mean). That song in particular highlights for me the fact that they both have great singing voices and both contribute just the right tones to their parts. I’m glad DeVante arranged the song the way he did and chose which one to sing which part which truly made it unique from Stevie’s version. One of the rare times that re-make almost outshined the original.
Monroe, Charlotte, North Carolina stand up! These brothers was nothing but pure talent ... their voices sound so pure and rich back then. Really hope they're doing well today..Always been a huge fan and collector of all their music.
Jodeci, Boyz II Men, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, Al Green Keith Sweat, Luther Vandross, Johnny Gill, Prince, R Kelly, Usher are all in my love making playlist that I plan to use hopefully it works :) And I'm only 18 SCREW THIS NEW SHITTY MUSIC LONG LIVE OLD SCHOOL
Devante ain’t hiding what you talking about? He lives in La. He still produces he just don’t do social media. Mr Dalvin has kept him self up really good. And kci and Jojo doing well doing their solo stuff. Kci voice is coming back. I seen him perform at a church check his Instagram before you start spouting out Bs.
It's 12/2023, and this is why I love Jodeci and this song! They are totally on another level. Jojo's voice is amazing! They will have a residency in Las Vegas soon! I'l be there! Love them! ❤🎶❤🎶
Honey to the baby....the vocals the vocals. Even when one takes the lead the other smashes the background. What in the..............this gives me love vibes. Life was smooth as butter in the 90s.
Like my man Keytronikz said, K-Ci & JoJo are both powerful singers, but their styles are opposite, but they complimented each other, their voices are like yin and yang
I admit that I only realized that this fantastic music gem of Stay by Jodeci existed after I had purchased a greatest hits music collection by this group, this live concert version of Stay does the song justice in a musically creative way.
Jojo’s head gear was always on point!!! One of the most underrated singers of all time! Jodeci as a group OMG! Dem boys was always on top of game! From their style to their music!💙
Jo Jo is one of the most underrated singers ever,Jo Jo is killing throughout this whole performance,He ripped this
Yes
Took the words right out of my mouth!! Maaan. i was like gyad damn jojo is going off. He definitely doesn't get enough credit for his vocal ability. Too Good!!
He’s not underrated he was big in the 90’s
Bro was smooth with it... nothing extra killing it smoothly
@@Drejac1underrated as in he doesn't get the attention and credit that he deserves
We need a Jodeci biopic ❤️
Dalvin did a interview a while w/ DJ Valad (UA-cam channel), and Dalvin said the biopic was still in the works.
In due time...we shall see Jodeci biopic !!
Bet is about to make a Uptown records mini series
@@NYCKZ360 It's not the same as a Jodeci biopic but they'll be featured in it.
If they ain't willing to tell the WHOLE truth.... I'm Good
Jojo’s vocals are absolutely perfect throughout the whole entire performance, on key, absolutely velvet and smooth, simply beautiful. And his range! Whew he was slept on
Major Facts!! He was definitely slept on
NOBODY slept on him. They still had a full career after jodeci broke up. Drunk and still sang his butt off.
My favorite tenor
Slept On ???? Naw...... Kci Was The Lead Sanger For A Reason.
My all-time favorite group. Nothing comes close to the Jodeci format, when they were all young and healthy. The talent and charisma are immaculate. JoJo was walking around making that shit look so easy. He and K-Ci compliment eachother well, and DeVante Swing remains in my top 5 favorite producers/artist.
these boys were gifted. WE were SO SO SO LUCKY TO HAVE JODECI.
😘
Not really
DeVante is a true musical genius. He doesn't get his credit.
He also helped discover Missy, Timbaland, Genuwine, the group Playa, and more.
Stg he dont the respect her deserve!!
Where you get that from?
@@marcocrawford938 Missy Elliott and Timb have done a few interviews talking about how DeVante puut them on. UA-cam it :)
Lol if you're a true music head, he does get the credit he deserves. I've seen people give him his proper respect due alot
A true, true musical GENIUS derailed by his personal demons.
When you realize they were young but still seasoned, confident and not afraid of that Apollo stage. They were bound to be successful. That good ole church upbringing...
they were known by this time...🤷🏽🤷🏽🤷🏽
@@henrybiggs3113 🙄 I know.
Low key Jo Jo is on another level from everyone else... his vocals are all over this track
Jojo was always the voice but kci was the showstopper
I STRONGLY DISAGREE😂😂😂 I mean his voice is crazy, but that power, rasp and pure velvet seeping from kci is damn near unreal 😮
There is no wrong answer they are both sliding on this song!
This is what R&B is all about
The guy with sexual healing Marvin Gaye suit tie shooting marr
Facts
Jo Jo Voice Was A Weapon.
So this is the legendary DeVante everybody has been talking about lately? He's gorgeous. Cute performance. Jodeci is really dope.
Yessss that was my husbae back when life was peaches and cream 🤣
marvalus 77 I’m sure life can be peaches and cream again even more than b4.
@@Chris-qg6kc dont c how. But hopefully
He was too fine
@@mj5885 he still is, even the face tattoo he has now 😍😩
Devante literally was a musical genius back then wrote every bit song of Jodeci we know and love and have become iconic. Put the group together the man knew what he was doing
He and Jojo put the group together
Nah Al B Sure wrote pretty much the whole album...But the production was all Devante and Dalvin.
@@youngharrio lies... They had all their songs on their demo tape before even being signed. Al b helped arrange, produce and did backgrounds on their 1st album tho.
You must be on drugs Al b sure didn’t write that album most of the album was done before they even met Al b sure.
Tha main thing I feel Al B did was sho them shortcuts on the Studio Boards
I never realized how much swag JoJo had...the way he's singing...damn!!!
That's why he has so many damn kids 😂😂
@@sheamartin5171 omg 😂😂
NOBODY makes me feel like Jodeci does....then & now. ❤
Period 😂
Agree. They get me in my feelings like NOONE else
Damn Jo Jo murdered that so effortlessly
My hes so calm damm
His vocals is unbelievable mann can sannnng
It's just so ridiculous that they even sounded this good live. They have every right in the world to hate on autotune.
K-Ci Sugar at 0:13 was badass
I grew up with a stutter, but I could sing their songs clear as day. One of my favorite groups from back in the day!!!
In the Era when R&B music was worth listening to and it meant something
agreed👏
Same here!
Good
it had a safe warm vibe to , it's all misogynistic shit now
Yooo these guys were different an genuine the energy in this performance was astronomical. Never will there be a smoother R&B group.
Man if I could sing id definitely want a voice like Jojo. That dudes vocals are something else.
Tre W You and me both.
Or that guy lil G from silk
Àààà
What about KC voice is the best
Tre W i wanted to riff like kci as a kids as a singer with a soft high voice i cryed as a kids cause of how bad i w
Wanted a strong powerful deep voice like Kci
I keep this performance on repeat 😍😍💃🏾💃🏾
Me too
Ok, we all talk about Kci's voice, but can y'all hear Jojo killing the chorus with those high tones???
Right , their range man ! He underrated !!!
@@Birago86 that boy was a bad bad boy always on point
Jojo is underrated! Are Devante and Dalvin even singing because all I hear is JoJo's perfectly pitched tenor singing the chorus, singing the harmonies. K-ci's voice is raspy and powerful, and his brother's voice compliments him. I wish they could have gotten themselves together.
@@aundreawilder4163 yes they are they actually all have great voices but Mr dalvin played the drums and devante was the producer
All 4 Of Them Could Sing. Kci & Jojo Were Better Vocally That's Why They Are The Lead Singers Of The Group.
Best 90s group. One of the best groups EVER❤❤❤❤
My boys right here! I love jodeci. Real kings of rnb ...
K-Ci was so country uncontrollably and that’s why he’s my favorite🥰we both can’t keep that country tucked in for too long😂
So glad I grew up in this Era and was able to see them in concert, and I'm glad there still making music. keep moving forward Jodeci, fan for life!
Lance Simmons lucky you !!
Wish I could say them same
I loved how K-Ci country accent came out during his verse 💕 💕
Omg loooooool I was just laughing at that 😅
Devante got on the floor for no reason at all... Cause he got up super fast. 😂😂😂
Sheena D. LMAO😂😂😂😂😂
Floor was cold
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Bruh lmao
There will never ever be another group like Jodeci 💯
Just found this version...and can’t stop playing it! Their voices are crisp and loud over the studio beat, and it sounds amazing!! Greatest R&B group of all time - no doubt. Jodeci 4 Life!
My favorite R&B group of All-time..I remember my moms bumping this when I was a kid.These boyz been the truth since Day 1..Devante Swing is a Musical Genius! the way he wrote,produced, arranged, and played all instruments for their debut album "Forever My Lady"..this dude is 1 of the reasons I got into production #Jodeci4Life
Al b sure wrote forever my lady. Look it up
Jodeci performances never get old 😂
Tru
I wonder if they still entertain the ladies like that now. Magic Mike with awesome singing
People need to put some respek on devante name. He discover Ginuwine, missy, timbaland, Stevie j, etc. Plus devante songwriting is underrated
He did that beat for Tupac Bring The Pain the hardest beat of the ALL EYES ON ME album
Plus produced all their albums and did the beats for others
He’s a genius. End of.
Thanks did not know this👌
Gunuwine is the Devantes cousin.... but u are right about the respect. They fail to mention him when they talked about legendary producers. They talk about timbo as if devante didnt find and mold the whole damn crew lol
Devante had me dead man 😂😂
Some performers who can actually SAAAANG 🏆
That harmony at the end gave me chills! Still the best R&B band on the planet ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏💯💯💯
Jojo is SANGING!!!
Like a bird.
Jo jo had them pipes babyyyyy
JoJo note 4:23 I'm on my bendin knee. Lawdddd brought a tear to my eye. 😢😢😢😙😙😙😙
Lawd yes
Thanks K-Ci for visiting Baltimore, Maryland in the 1992 at the club Volcano's...plus shaking my hand and later on talking to me, it was a blast and honor, continue singing!!!

3:30 That NC Accent Came Out 😂😂
Aquilah C. lmfaooo hell yeah
lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aquilah C. 😂
Aquilah C. I heard it a couple of times😂😂
😂😂😂
Jojo is the best singer in this group. He sings very "straightforward" . From 3:51, his vocal carries the song while K-Ci flourishes.
I disagree KC carried the song
Both are excellent singers and carried the song. You have one who can go soprano and one baritone I think it is called. They flow with one another smoothly.
@@mooret212 yes i agree. if you watch their mtv unplugged performance of Lately you’ll see them sing verse for verse with each other and they both sound great (not sure if it’s really verse for verse both you’ve most likely heard the song 1000xs so you know what I mean).

Yesss
It is the arrangement of their voices
I almost cried when Jojo and Kci started singing. They sound AMAZING
Jojo has one of THE BEST voices in R&B in my opinion
It's pretty sad that they'll never be music like this anymore! The 90s owned this genre PERIOD!
Not many groups sounds this good with out studio sounds
They were one of a kind jo jo hes in my top 10 greatest vocalist of all time.
Jojo was killin it!! Man I wish he still had his voice.
What about KC?
Kc killed it
Monroe, Charlotte, North Carolina stand up!
These brothers was nothing but pure talent ... their voices sound so pure and rich back then. Really hope they're doing well today..Always been a huge fan and collector of all their music.
Devante will forever be MY ❤
Wow!! I’ve been singing this song for 35 years and still singing today…
Jojo was in his entire bag this night!!!
Jodeci, Boyz II Men, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, Al Green Keith Sweat, Luther Vandross, Johnny Gill, Prince, R Kelly, Usher are all in my love making playlist that I plan to use hopefully it works :) And I'm only 18 SCREW THIS NEW SHITTY MUSIC LONG LIVE OLD SCHOOL

Lol!!!!
Lol I said the same thing he was fine tho
Jo Jo's vocals definitely stood out lol
These dudes could sing so well!! Vocals were on point! Take care of your gifts.
Jojo had an amazing voice
Devante ain’t hiding what you talking about? He lives in La. He still produces he just don’t do social media. Mr Dalvin has kept him self up really good.

Yeah and those drugs ruined. Now it’s barely a whisper.
Such a shame he destroyed his voice 😩
this is the era I should have grow up in😩
Nina Lanaya I did and it was fantastic!
@90’80sFootage Same time 88 beyond
RIGHT WHY DID I HAVE TO BORN IN THE 90s
Same here
42 years old, my era was beyond dope we had all the flavor.
We need some MORE JODECI PERIOD.
It's 12/2023, and this is why I love Jodeci and this song! They are totally on another level. Jojo's voice is amazing!
They will have a residency in Las Vegas soon! I'l be there! Love them! ❤🎶❤🎶
I watched this video so many times and never get tired of it 👌 #jodeci #bestrnbgroupever

Sound like Donald Duck 😆
I’m late but lawd that North Carolina was North Carolining!! I love it too! Good-nessssssss 😅❤
One of there best live performances. They don't make em like this anymore!
All of them looked good 😍 but Devante 😍🤤
k ci is amazing
Jojo ate this performance up 😩😩
I love Jodeci so much
Honey to the baby....the vocals the vocals. Even when one takes the lead the other smashes the background. What in the..............this gives me love vibes. Life was smooth as butter in the 90s.
Awesome performance! I was loving Jojo's vocals!
What about KC
Here for it in ‘23 and beyond
If I had only one wish, it would be to ask the Lord to give Jojo his voice back so we can hear this beautiful melody once again!
Yes!
boomslang1 yea man fr, if jojo just had his back.they would sound good!! Jojo was the key
boomslang1 yes
Dont he still got his voice
Alyssa Alyssa unfortunately not cuz he‘s been drinking too much. Still good tho but not as good as in this one
Whoever got to have DeVante in front of them they are lucky as hell ❤️❤️
Jojo betta hold it down you hear me! Flawless
Literally no group can touch Jodeci‼️ like sheeshhhh🔥🔥‼️‼️🔥‼️🔥‼️
Jodeci is the best thing in the R&B history.
They're great - excellent singing and excellent performance.
Jo jo was the man period
Am I the only one that thinks JoJo held this performance down fr with the vocals. It’s like he wasn’t even trying hard...my lawd
JoJo could sing his behind off. He could carry that group front and back
Jojo did the damn thang on lead then carried the background all in one performance
@@TRELL3132 I thought the same thing!
JoJo is the harmony, he makes every song so melodic.
Beautiful powerful voice
He the chillest one out the group lol
My favorite male R&B group of all time
Like my man Keytronikz said, K-Ci & JoJo are both powerful singers, but their styles are opposite, but they complimented each other, their voices are like yin and yang
Jojo and that voice. 🥰
The Jojo of back then was phenomenal!!! Remarkably gifted singer, him and K-ci sounded like a whole choir
Yes they did. You could barely hear the other two. JoJo and K-ci carried the whole song.
Devante knows exactly what he’s doing, rolling on that ground like that, lol
I admit that I only realized that this fantastic music gem of Stay by Jodeci existed after I had purchased a greatest hits music collection by this group, this live concert version of Stay does the song justice in a musically creative way.
jojo’s voice is unmatched
I loved they showmanship on stage durn I miss watching Apollo it was the best outlet for Artist
One of my favorite performances by them
We all know KC the powerhouse lead but lets not sleep on JOJO..Got chills listening to him here. JOJO in his prime was a straight beast.
It’s 2018 and I’m still playing this song like it’s the 90s wheeeew! They were the greatest 😩
Holy shizz! That harmony at 4:18 is on another level
lawd Devante 😍
The greatest R n B group from my generation!!!
And they some Carolina bredren…North Carolina
NC All Day Everyday
My ex bf was named after devante and when he told me, I googled Devante swing, and been in love w/him and the music ever since.
Wow. So good. Time kind of doesn't matter when it comes to jodeci. Still relevant.
Yessah!
I’m 22 but my parents are 44 and 48 and they put me on to amazing music like this growing up I swear I only listen to 90s r&b lol
JoJo sung his heart out this performance...he had someone on his mind
Jojo’s head gear was always on point!!! One of the most underrated singers of all time! Jodeci as a group OMG! Dem boys was always on top of game! From their style to their music!💙
I love the outfits they wearing seems like they bringing that style back in 2019
The #1 male group of the 90’s! I ❤️ me some J-O-D-E-C-I!
