UA-cam trolling our ass. I don’t look or search for nothing about Jhene aiko. Nothing against her but why is she being recommend I like cat videos dammit lol
ayobridgeo I dunno she seems fake now, this interview seemed more authentic. I dont know her personally so I really cant say. But this seems like the real her. Sge sgould go back to this style, seems like she had more personality.
Not sure why everyone is calling her “ghetto” from this video. She was literally a teenager. Of course she’s not going to act the same way she does now. People mature and grow up.
Ghetto is a term of endearment in this case. You can tell that she came from humble beginnings. Ghetto is just saying she was just like every other girl where she’s from (the hood)...
I can't believe she wasn't famous back then. Talent like her's are very relevant to break through in the 00's, I can only image how history would change if she emerged into mainstream back then.
B2K was already famous at this time, that's why they made Jhene related to Lil Fizz even though she really wasn't, it was a marketing tool used to boost her popularity.
IMX maybe but not immature. I think everyone has their time on the spotlight with huge fan bases. She’s just more relevant than them now. I prefer her now anyways. I’m glad it took her time to blow up, because I don’t know if I could have appreciated her as much as a teenager. It more about boy bands then.
@@stephaniebrown9974 I agree to an extent. I believe it's different with Jhene because her music can stand with the times. I still play her stuff from 2012 with the same relevancy... So do many others
It’s funny because Jhene actually dated lil fizz in secret when the label was trying to push the concept of them being cousins. This was before she got with Omarion’s brother though
Yesss!!! I used to wear that bonus track out.... She actually sounds the same vocal wise but has matured a lot far as the genre of music she's put out lately
I love her I can't believe she used to sing like this, it's beautiful I jst nve heard her sing like that the way she has fully developed as an artist now.
It's crazy how after b2k disbanded I always use to say Jhene was gonna make a comeback and everyone used to think I was crazy. I used to keep up with her UA-cam, childbirth and everything... Now look. Original fan here lmao B2k was life
Bruh u only see her on camera shut the hell up she probably act the same around her family every body different on camera and she has a daughter mila doesn’t her and mila act the same it’s just Jhené has a little calmer vibe and mila has the every day cool vibe stop Judging
Pink Fire bitch you stfu you all in your feelings about a celebrity that don’t even know you exist. I didn’t say anything disrespectful about them just made an observation bozo LOL
SHES CAME A LONGGG WAY 🙌🏽this is another example of trust your process everything takes time I didn’t even know who jhene aiko was until like 2016 when she did a song with big Sean she looks so different now 😍😍😍
One thing about this quarantine in 2020 alot of old stuff just suddenly been appearing in your recommendations never knowing these things were done until now
Damnnnn throwback foreal! I remember this I recorded this on vhs lmaoo. Shout out to everybody that constantly waited until jhene came out cuz they would say her albums coming and it never did. Glad she doing her thing now. Look at tg4 in the back ambee "sevyn streeter"
I BEEN LOOKIN OUT FOR JHENE SINCE B2K FIRST CAME OUT I WAS SO MAD THEY NEVER PUT HER OUT THERE LIKE THEY SHOULD HAVE CUZ THE GIRL GOT MAD SKILLS FOREAL!
Tess this was back in the day. Had to buy the b2k dvd or the cd to see this. I wish her album came out. I still love love the old songs she recorded back in the day. "Gonna love you anyway" is my favorite song. I loved the vocal range she displayed not like in her new songs. So when ppl say she can't sing I'm like dude go hear the older tracks. I love Jhene new songs as well. But it's something bout the older ones.
Just popped up on my recommends #2021😂 like all of sudden,while I was listening to her music .healing sounds is everything, 🕯🪔🕯Jhene Aiko is a forever Vibe 😍 I love her growth and Energy! ❤
It’s sad to see how much more enthusiastic and upbeat she was back then. She either grew out of it or this was before a lot of the bad shit she talks about in her songs started happening.
She was like 14 years old here, possibly because I know she was born in 1988. Someone mentioned in the comments that this was 2002, in the early 2000s. I know the topics of her songs-meaning the rebranded Jhené-have always been dark, melancholic, and about her substance abuse, trauma from men who were players or who cheated a lot, or men who only wanted sexual relationships with no commitment. Then there’s her trauma of losing her brother Miygai to cancer, which struck a deep nerve. I also read somewhere that she experienced homelessness and was broke, and then she ended up pregnant with her daughter. After that, she really started to focus on her music to provide for herself and her daughter. I know she experimented with drugs for a long time, which is why she sings about cannabis and its different strains, LSD, psilocybin, and why she battled with her inner demons. Her songs tell it all, even though they’re metaphorical and clever and all that. She also mentioned in blogs or old articles that she had a gun held to her head while staying with one of her grandparents during the LA riots in the '90s, which adds another layer to her experiences. I think she might’ve been going through things back then, like not being able to artistically express herself and playing the backseat with her career. I also know she struggled with not being close to her father at all. She mentioned she had trauma before her brother passed, but his passing made everything more complicated for her.
OMG the memoriesssss!!! This is when life was GOOD! B2K & Bow Wow were my everythinggggggg. YAS Jhene I've been a fan since these good ole days lol. Glad to see you're still doing your thing.
ahahahaha. omg. embarrassing!

@@morningsunshine0216 😂😂😂
Exactly
😂😂😂😂
right . 😭😭
she's got that street but sweet vibe here. Now she's an intellect.
QuietRiot123 jhene still street....slauston
Fake deep
youknowwhatflav she’s really not fake deep. You can tell she’s really about it and really knows her stuff.
Just because you was in the streets or know a person in the street. Doesn't mean that you aren't intelligent.
@@samyaowens4055 he's not saying she isnt. He's referring to the vibe and growth
"I hope I have fans like that."
Oh, honey, if only you realized how right you were gonna be.
Enit! And healing us one song at a time
Power of the Pisces tongue ✨
@@mysticalgoddess8895 yes gotta be positive cus them negative pisces are something else 🥵🥵☠️☠️
Yes reading this is so full circle especially after her sold out tour 🥹💙
@@selkcub 🙌🏽🙂
Lol, I can just imagine how Jhene probably cringes when she sees this now.
Yesss
Wait until her kids see this😂
Lmao she comment
She commented
17foreverJoJo She's here and cringing right now 😂
can we talk about how she was like 15 in this clip and now she's 30 but she still looks the damn same😂
i did not know she was 30
She ages so well!!!!
32!
This was in 2002 which would make her 32 or 33 in 2020.
she does not look the same...
To be drop dead gorgeous your whole life. Imagine 😭😭
Right
lol girl u're beautiful too and i love ur skin!! u don't have to put yourself down just to compliment someone
Righttt
Awww ya’ll are so kind I love these vibes! ❤️👏🏻
Omg she sounded like Kyla Pratt (Penny from the Proud Family) here 😂
+Dj Keith LOL she could've done it part time and no one would've known the difference 😂
Alex Roché early 2000s vibe hun
(gasp) Her names penny too!
Her grandfather called her penny since she was kid growing up.
It’s crazy cause Kyla Pratt is from L.A too 😂
Aw lil ghetto Jhene lol. She has matured so much and has developed her true style now 💙 amazing.
ayobridgeo I dunno she seems fake now, this interview seemed more authentic. I dont know her personally so I really cant say. But this seems like the real her. Sge sgould go back to this style, seems like she had more personality.
childof83 Yeah she seemed to have more personality back then. She just seems more mature and more in tune with herself now.
+childof83 yeah her sister (Mila J) acts now how she was acting in this video then. More urban like.
xKeepTheFaithx yaaassss
Jessica Omura Yup
Not sure why everyone is calling her “ghetto” from this video. She was literally a teenager. Of course she’s not going to act the same way she does now. People mature and grow up.

Exactly she don’t come off ghetto at all. And everybody keep saying “aww ghetto jhene” and I’m like 🥴 this not even ghetto
yeah that’s crazy she not even acting ghetto 😂 that’s crazy
@@camrynbell9809 people don’t really know what it mean they just use it as a popular word now a days
This comment
she said she hopes we enjoy her music🥺.. and we do!! Love you jhené
This got such a 2000s vibe lol
looking back, what a great decade for music and hiphop culture
my space and Lakers gear all present
Best days, wish I could re-live it all over again. When we had a sense of normalcy.
Good times I bet
It’s Crazy How Namiko Looks Exactly Like This
She really does
Very true
almost as if...she's her mom! 😱
these transitions are killing me😂
Why did UA-cam randomly recommended this in 2020?
FGHGFDSGBHBCDZSSG frrrrrrrrrrr
right?
ikrrr
Just got the "introduction" 10 years later .... 🤣🤣
if you ONLY KNEW jhene..what amazing music you would make...
charlie mundae Souled Out was amazing! Also her mixtape was dope too
“Wait No More” is STILL one of my favourite songs from her! ✨
I can't believe she wasn't famous back then. Talent like her's are very relevant to break through in the 00's, I can only image how history would change if she emerged into mainstream back then.
She sounded terrible right here
@@RellyRell-ud3iz She was 15 and just needed training.
She was wack back then because we had beyonce n Alicia
@@RellyRell-ud3iz you know you lying 😂
UA-cam is actually doing it’s job with the recommendations today😂
Who else watching this after it popped up on your recommendation after 10 yearsss!!!!
Crazy how she blew up bigger than both IMX and B2K! The last shall be first and the first shall be last!
Tony McQueen big facccctttssss
B2K was already famous at this time, that's why they made Jhene related to Lil Fizz even though she really wasn't, it was a marketing tool used to boost her popularity.

@@stephaniebrown9974 I agree to an extent. I believe it's different with Jhene because her music can stand with the times. I still play her stuff from 2012 with the same relevancy... So do many others
I wouldn’t say that I’ll just say she blew up at a time when they weren’t hot anymore the groups split and been grown by the time she came out
Lol she sounds hella different
Michelle Starr right!!!!!!
She sounded like catch me outside girk
Prime west coast
Sounds like britney spears lol
Slauson...got to evolve. You can tell she was very much influenced by Destiny Child and Brandy. Milaj sound just like this still😂😂
cracks me tf up she wasnt actually related to lil fizz.
Supremebean303 aye fake it til you make it right 😂
Crip shit lol
damn RIP lol
@Shitead O’ Conner didn’t nobody put a gun to her head and make her say it. Her clout chasing ass probably came out with the idea first 😂
It was a marketing tool to promote her and establish a following
Y’all gta love that UA-cam is the closest thing to a time traveling machine we have.
she spoke her success into existence!! i love her
Is it crazy that she still looks the same? Lol her voice is just a little more mature now
yeah , she's always been unique-looking , I see
UA-cam recommends the weirdest stuff at the weird times
they b knowing too
RIGHTTTTT!!! 🤣
Yes because it’s 3:30 am and this popped up lol
It’s funny because Jhene actually dated lil fizz in secret when the label was trying to push the concept of them being cousins. This was before she got with Omarion’s brother though
That’s gross
Wth ! So they aren’t actually cousins ???
@@Kendrickfan89 no they aren’t it was just a marketing ploy.
@@leakypussy9813 so gross, on so many levels
@@asia22 how is that gross lol they not real cousins
"Are you serious?"
"Nah, I'm jokin'."
😂
This was 2002. I remember this! MySpace and Facebook didn’t exit just yet. I was in high school when this came out!
Shout out to all the girls who use to repeat that B2k bonus track "Dog" by Jhene lol that was my shit at 13 years old lol
Yesss!!! I used to wear that bonus track out.... She actually sounds the same vocal wise but has matured a lot far as the genre of music she's put out lately
‼️‼️‼️ those were the dayS.
Yes that was definitely me ...
I remember asking for the album with lil fizz
Yesss 🤣 that was my song!!!
So we all happened to randomly get recommended here in 2020 👀😂 but lets get into how she still look this good
OMG ! she's so pretty and still is ! one of her biggest fans! love you jhene
I love her I can't believe she used to sing like this, it's beautiful I jst nve heard her sing like that the way she has fully developed as an artist now.
She’s always been a baddie 🥰😘
My favorite Artist, I love her...And she has mastered her voice sooooooo much. ❤❤❤❤❤
this was filmed before the 11 year olds watching this on youtube right now were born
This randomly showed up on my recommended.. and I’m not disappointed...
idk how or why this was in my suggestions but I love it lol. Jhene been that girl!!
Good times!!! I still have this DVD!! 😍 She was 16 at the time. This is the Jhene I know. ❤
Wait she’s 39.,
She sounds like shes from the south, this video is so funny
I remember when she first came outttt!!!! I had all her posters when Word Up was a popping magazine!!!
It's crazy how after b2k disbanded I always use to say Jhene was gonna make a comeback and everyone used to think I was crazy. I used to keep up with her UA-cam, childbirth and everything... Now look. Original fan here lmao B2k was life
I remember buying the B2K CD , popping it in the computer and watched this intro. Memories I tell you. If I could go back I would
It's touching seeing where and how she is now. Her mentioning her brother, gosh 💖
She grew out of the baggy clothes look but her older sister mila j didn't lol
theblacksamurai646 And? Mila J is her own person
That’s just her style of an artist cus she definitely wear tight clothes
The Mystic MacTAPPER she wears tight clothes more now but she definitely still rocks the baggy look
Bruh u only see her on camera shut the hell up she probably act the same around her family every body different on camera and she has a daughter mila doesn’t her and mila act the same it’s just Jhené has a little calmer vibe and mila has the every day cool vibe stop Judging
Pink Fire bitch you stfu you all in your feelings about a celebrity that don’t even know you exist. I didn’t say anything disrespectful about them just made an observation bozo LOL
Why is this in my recommended after 10 years? 😭

Angel Anderson I never knew they knew each other back then! Small world I guess even in the industry
I'm glad she didn't come out back then cuz she has grown a lot and music is a lot more personal and understanding .
"These dogs weigh 200 lbs!"
"Are you serious?"
"Nah I'm jokin"
😂
Wow, she came along way. It's like an old world meeting a new world and making something beautiful and different.
3:25 "These dogs weight 200 pounds" "Really?" "no i'm jokin"
She is so OG like 😍😍nobody can top that in R&B rn .
She was jawn 😍😍😍, especially the way she used to talk
Thx...I can listen to her everyday. Her music takes me somewhere...Sade’s music does the same thing

ugggggggssss..thank goodness she's grown out of this!!

It’s still so weird to me, that they actually had these kids Jhene and Lil Fizz, pretending they were “cousins”.
She almost looks exactly the same!
I remember watching this when it came out and instantly became a fan!
Exactly 17 years ago😭❤️
OMG the memoriesssss!!! This is when life was GOOD! B2K & Bow Wow were my everythinggggggg. YAS Jhene I've been a fan since these good ole days lol. Glad to see you're still doing your thing.
