Part 1: • Sisqo on Gloria Velez'...
--------
In this clip, Sisqo talked about touring and performing with top names such as Dru Hill, Jodeci, and SWV and even shared the stage with pop icon Mariah Carey. The singer reminisces about his visit to Japan after his first album, noting how they threw a parade in his honor. He also reflected on his video for "Incomplete" and why he didn't get to shoot a video for "Beauty." Later in the clip, he detailed his experiences with Michael Jackson and Teddy Riley. - Розваги
I remember Jojo and Kci saying they liked Dru Hill because it brought Jodeci back into the conversation
Not at first cause they was on 106 n park giving dru hill hell for stealing there style when jojo started to lose his vocals that’s when they started being humble and doing shows with them dude from dru hill was singing jojo part when they was on stage touring
Nope not at first. K Ci didn't like anyone sounding like him at all. In fact, K Ci thought it was a Jodeci reunion without him Sisqo and Dru Hill sounded so much like them.
K Ci and JoJo accepted him and Dru Hill overtime.
@@flamboiyenttalk7039 Facts!!! They didn't like him at all bc they knew Dru Hill got their entire swag from them.
@@leonardjackson1573and I believe they actually sued Dru Hill. I don't think it went anywhere though.
No one needs to “bring Jodeci back into the conversation.” Are you kidding? Jodeci IS R&B! They’re amazing! And they have far more hits and better songs than Dru Hill could ever imagine. Nothing against Dru Hill, but their no Jodeci. Sorry.
Damn I wish we could've gotten a video for "Beauty Is Her Name"
I just listened to that tonight
The song is called beauty
Me too but I think they have a video for the remix tho
Jodeci is one of the best music groups to ever do it. " My heart belongs to you " is also my favorite song from Jodeci. I was in high school when they came out, so I literally grew up listening to them and enjoyed every album they dropped. # Salute
YES ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
TAO Soprano with us rocked that recently, thank you kindly!
Yes Off the Album **Diary of a mad band** U and I Is a Great Song As Well. From the first album...forever My Lady.
@tinaBabe4 Indeed, my heart belongs to you. Is my number one and U & I are my number 2# all-time favorite 3#. Alone, and the list goes on and on
Kci said when he first heard u on the radio he turned to jojo and said when did we record that one? 😂😂
Just to add aswell kci got compared to stevie wonder as well bro and aaron hall so its full circle man. Im glad u take it as a compliment
@@MAGICCOFFEY facts, ha! To be honest, when Jodeci first came out I was comparing their sound to Guy. That's who I thought of when I first heard their album. I took K-Ci and JoJo's voices for granted though. I still wish they sounded at least 80% of what they sounded like in their younger years. For some reason I would love to hear a new Jodeci album with those prime vocals.
@@deezel3176 they should of done an album with like those Guy covers they did and demos of songs from the early 90s that would of been great. Dalvin keeps talking about a vault of songs ready to be used but i doubt the songs are from their prime early 90s era.
@@MAGICCOFFEY That would've been dope if they did that fam! I would definitely love to hear those songs.
Jodeci and Dru Hill would've been a good versus battle..
Sisqo really is a legend, Dru Hill had so many great records, and bro had some really good solos, he really kept Jodeci's sound alive while they were going through their changes. And KC & Jojo both said they like Dru Hill, there's even a grainy video of them at a old concert doing an "ohhh yea" battle. 🤣
DeVante is like Prince, He's never going to give you your props 🤣 I'm sure he appreciates bro tho
Dru had about 5 good songs max and 2 of them are features
@@crocop4life Not an R&B fan I see
@@JNo-sk5mzYea, he's bugging...smh
I consider myself a dru fan but they had weak albums. Actually they were decent. Like 40% good 60% filler IMO. No wall to wall classics. But they had some shit in their arsenal. To me Jodeci best album was Diary. It was a complete classic. I hate to say it but the show after party album was mostly filler. It had my favorite jodeci songs freak n u and love u 4 life. But Still Jodeci had the magic. They are the 90s Goats to me.
You can tell sisqo admired kci and jodeci. Devante probably weren't feeling them trying to be like Jodeci but there there was space for Dru Hill. jodeci's production was unmatched
Dru Hill and Mariah Carey's rendition of BEAUTIFUL ONES is phenomenal!
Produced by Devante too
💯I f**king did they thing on that track. So underrated 🤦🏽♂️
@@son_of_a_gun215 It should've been a single. Nonetheless, I know it didn't match the theme of her album.
Yes I absolutely love that song!!!
OMG. Jazz and Sisqo tore that song up.
Finally Sisqo getting his interviews and flowers he deserves. This is so overdue 🤷🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ Hes a legend
DeVante is blunt asf if he didn’t like you, you’d know. He obviously has social anxiety and stays to himself because people in the industry is funny acting 🌚
DeVante is a slime ball. The way he treated Missy and Ginuwine when they were his protégés were inhumane. he should of been arrested for the way he treates them. im so glad that they went on to be successful in spite of how he treated them. dude is definitely living his karma
My Heart Belongs To You is my jam too!! That song, LORD!!
Such a classic!
2023
Still my album.
U&I tho🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oh yess
I always loved the Beautiful Ones remake by Mariah and Sisqo. I had no idea Devante produced the remake.
If you listen closely his voice his on the speaking part...
My favorite song all time. I wish their was a version with Jodeci.
That song was trash
Nobody can sing like Jodeci. Those dudes vocals were next level.
Except Sisqo damnit. He’s sounds better in my opinion
Except dru hill
@@ntaylor253 Right I'm saying to myself reading that comment, Dru Hill blows them away.
@@johngooglyYou all must be joking nobody sang like the Hailey brothers in their prime especially when they were in jodeci.
They can't touch the Hailey Brothers.
Sisqo be looking like Russel Simmons from one angle and Plies from another
I'm done 😂😂😂😂
Yooooooo u Won😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😭😭😭😭😂
😂😂😂
😭😭😭💯
Y’all gone learn Devante don’t want nothing to Do with us 😂 I’m shocked he popped back up for the tour this year.
It's odd lol. I wonder if he realizes how much he's loved
I liked the "Incomplete" Video with Lisa Raye...I think it was good casting. And I wish they had gotten to do a video for "Beauty." I would love to see Jodeci and Dru Hill in concert together. A song from both groups would be epic.
They are on tour right now together with SWV
They are on tour now, I’m going to see them in August
@@royaltee8463 me too :)
Yes I have my ticket for their Summer Block party together at the end of this month 🥰
I'm so excited for you guys I'm seeing them next month Sept 7th! I can't freaking wait!!!
Sisqo made everyone mad when he started hitting that "Yeaaahh eh-hee yeaah" JUST LIKE KCi. 😂😂... on another note, My Heart Belongs to You is my SHIT!
How you spelled that out phonetically though 😅😅
@@john2lewisjr 🤣😆
@@john2lewisjr
Looooool
I don't think that Devante has any hate he was never the same after he was attacked. He has had limitations since.
From what I heard Devante don’t like too many people. Both groups are legendary ❤
Yeah if you not from their era or era’s before them or late 90’s early 2000’s jodeci not fucking with specially in today times
Yeah I heard that too.
Never forget Devante looking for Genuwine with a machete.
@@michaelfreeman124huh
@@michaelfreeman124 ????????
Let's be clear, Sisqo was that dude back then and had major vocals, but if you were to put him against a prime K-Ci there is no comparison when it comes to vocals. K-Ci was able to hit all of his riffs and runs, including the range when it came to singing their songs live. Sisqo couldn't sustain that live (range wise). Don't get me wrong his vocals were on point but sometimes I think he pushed himself too far in the studio and then when it came to sing it live, he couldn't always do those notes in the manner that they should've been done. I'm glad he's still doing his thing though, he was one of my vocal heroes as well, right along with K-Ci, JoJo, and Shawn Stockman and Wanya from Boyz to Men. I'd throw in Joe, Brian Mcknight, Tank, Stokley (Mint condition), and a couple of others as well.
He literally sings better than K-Ci
@@VintageAndersonMusic Now he does, but I stand on what I said. A prime K-Ci sings better than a prime Sisqo. Sisqo even said it himself. Vocally they both are nice, but K-Ci in his prime would eat Sisqo in a vocal battle, not so much in this present day though.
@@deezel3176 He’s humble.
@@VintageAndersonMusic I agree! At one point in time he wasn't, but I still liked him, he was my vocal hero. He's still my guy though and I'm glad he's still singing as well as K-Ci.
@@deezel3176 I aint gone lie I think its closer than you think. I would say just raw ability you probably gotta go prime kci but prime sisqo was super polished. Both monsters though. I do have some bias druhill is the reason why I do music but I have performed damn every jodeci hit vs only doing beauty and were not making love by dru lol
I always love when people try to put someone down to lift someone else up. How about Jodeci and Dru Hill were both amazing groups. Jodeci being my personal favorite. Sisqo and his boys were no slouches.
jodeci was EVERYTHING back then. i made beats. at 13 my stage name was CR swing, like Devante swing
These young people will never understand. Jodeci was the PINNACLE of male R&B groups. Shai was cool. Silk had some songs. H-Town made a hood classic. But Jodeci was like the Michael Jordan of Black singing groups in the '90s
They were inspired by Jodeci but created their (dru hill) own sound and that’s a FACT
Facts🦾👍
Beauty is my fave Dru Hill song as well
Same
I always thought sisqo and k-ci were vocal twins. Very similar voices.
Sisqo is basically an more athletic version of kci doing flips and whatnot on stage lol
@romarisrogers8005 true,but k-Ci's vocals in his prime,is a more athletic version of Sisqo,if you listen to the fast uptempo songs on Jodeci's 1st album,you'll hear k-ci's voice doing Gymnastics...AMAZING vocals,Sisqo is very good, but k-ci's voice in his prime,is untouchable
@@jonathanjackson2587 I meant stage performance wise sisqo was athletic...But yea, I'd say at times kci treated hiz body like prince did where he electrified the crowd just by gyrating hiz hips during hiz stage performances..
@romarisrogers8005 Yeah,I knew you meant stage performance wise,and I agree sisqo was definitely more athletic,and I'd say he was a natural dancer/mover,where with K-Ci I'd say his voice was more athletic in his prime,as he had so much range in the earlier days of Jodeci...if youcheck out " Gotta Love" video,that's another great example of K-ci's vocal range
@@jonathanjackson2587 Sisqo is the better vocalist of the two overall especially today but even if you go back to K-Ci's vocal prime. Sisqo's performance in Beauty alone makes him the better vocalist. And he has not lost it at all till this day bc he never did drugs
“Beauty” is top tier song ever!
The love we had stays on my mind is best dru hill song ever
There are a few that compare, but you got a strong argument! I’m not gonna argue against this one! So dope!!!
True but it's a cover
I like their version of it.
Not when Beauty is right there
Beauty
So Special
If I Could
For me
Gloria STILL LOOKS GOOD
Gloria Velez I only knew from the BIG Pimpin video. Girl trying to say the video incomplete would of been legendary without Lisa, nope absolutely not Lisa Ray was the face after the Players Club and TV to show up for that spot….chile 🤦🏽♀️
Right!!!!
Tripping Lisaraye was the cherry on top!
Man watching 24 hours with sisqo as a teenager… I know he smashed all of em 😂
I remember "tell me" had to grow on me because I thgt they sounded too much like jodeci!!! Be then I fell for them!!😍😍
Their chemistry is great! This, RIGHT HERE VLAD, is an INTERVIEW!
It's obvious they dated or slept together
To be honest Dru Hill are better life performers now
Ima 90s baby so I was late to Dru Hill. Sisqo was on 🔥 when I was a jit but I gotta say Dru had some bangers that I’m jus now discovering my fav so far is “I Should Be” they were all tryin out sing each other on that joint 😆 no 🧢
Amazing voice!
Love love your beautiful and powerful voice. Big fan😍😍😍😍
This headline made me laugh. A couple months ago i was listening to a Sisqo song and I realized he sounded just like lile K-Ci lol
Sisqo a legend !!!
Beauty would’ve been a Billboard No. 1 hit if it had a video
Wow Sisqo is 5'6!!!
All that talent PACKED in 5'6 man
Can't wait to see him next month!
The dude has been out since like 1995, and you're just now finding out his height?
Yes sir that is correct.
Always focused on the singing and not the size.
Have a great rest of your week.
@@vgreen1106 - You don't have to focus on anything to know the dude is short after 27 years in the spotlight.
@@TopBillinSports That's a good point
You were that guy those days dam your style & everything was killing it.. You & kc had that voice my 2 favorite singers oooooow Bad Ass
Sisqo is such a humble human bein so you can’t really hate him for sounding like K-CI. He pays homage to his mentors
I'm surprised Beauty is Sisqo's favourite Dru Hill song. I would've thought it would be How Deep is Your Love
I honestly don't think Sisqo sounds like K-Ci. Like...Sisqo sounded like a trained singer. K-Ci always took it to church for me.
Fr kci was a church nigga
You're tone-deaf
K-Ci was a gospel prodigy. He was the lead singer of his family group The Hailey Singers as a child, and they released multiple charting gospel albums in the 80s.
I love Sisqo's weddingsm ring i wish I could afford it!
Definitely need a beauty video‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️‼️‼️‼️‼️♥️♥️♥️
If we smashed was a person
We definitely need a dru hill verzuz jodeci
Sisqo did a good job with his KCi “impersonation” however there is only one Cedric Renard KCi Hailey. Mentioning he don’t know if JoJo stopped drinking was unmerited and gave blonde hair & a thong.
Him and KCi have similar pitch. Danny Boy and Mint Condition are similar
And Raphael Saddiq!
Icon SISQO👍
Beauty is a classic
now i have to watch incomplete video, i had that bish on vhs and would watch it on repeat along with other joints that would be on BET midnight love
8:32 shadyy🤣🤣
Wow what’s crazy is those two I consider the coldest lead singers of all time and you can definitely hear K-ci’s influence in his vocals!!!
Sisqo is really like that dope person to hang out with TBH and I can tell he’s a big fan of JODECI ❤️
Wasn’t she next to Pimp C in Big Pimpin?
I thought Dru Hill’s “You Are Everything” was produced by Devante. It sounds just like “My Heart Belongs To You”.
I am Kiwi The Beauty because of “Beauty is her Name”. One of my favorite songs of ALL TIME. It deserves a video. I would like to hear the full story…
Sisqo thats a bad man when he sing you can feel that shit
This is a low key GEM🎉
Name somebody Devante like other than Dalvin KCi and Jojo
Kim porter
@@Lenasevilla-yb4eisay what?! tell me more! I gotta look this up now
@@Bigvirgoenergy he dated Kim porter after Al b sure. She was his love interest in jodeci feenin video too. Then puff daddy took her from him.
I thought the thumbnail was Russell Simmons😂😂
Wait the the climax of the Thong song was iconic. It was at dusk in black light with neon enhancements
Who remembers when Sisqo and his homeboy took Gloria & Melyssa Ford back to the hotel room? 😂💪🏽
I thought that was Russell Simmons by the thumbnail lol
I feel like she won’t let him talk she keep cutting him off like damn let him speak 🙄
Gloria look like she got sum back there ❤❤😂
She do!
Prolly fake 😢
I mean both Sisqo and K-ci are Baltimore natives for the inspiration is justifiable....Jodeci we're trendsetters and oh boy Dru Hill did a good job keeping R&B on top .....For me Dru Hill is both Boyz 2 men and Jodeci combined because their sound have both groups elements....Big up Sisqo man ...
KCi is actually a native of Monroe, North Carolina. They moved to Baltimore for short time while singing in a gospel group and then moved back to North Carolina.
@@nikkiloveslife4841 ....Oh yes my mistake.....They moved to Baltimore at one stage.....
@@nikkiloveslife4841 ..You're right he just said they moved to Baltimore when he was very young...
@@nikkiloveslife4841 if Charlotte sounds better than Monroe so be it, but he was born in Monroe which is like 45 minutes from Charlotte.
@@nikkiloveslife4841 ....From early childhood to teens
Devante Swing was just the producer though. They made him the face of Jodeci in the videos because of his looks it was an easier way to sell records, he wasn’t a singer.
Just the producer? There’s no Jodeci without Devante production.
He was not just the producer. The group started with just him and Jojo .. he didn’t intend on just being in the background. So yeah he wrote, produced, and sang as well just not lead clearly.
@@carriesmith7843 i wasn’t belittling him he’s one of greatest to ever do it it’s just that most people thought he was a vocalist because of how the videos we’re set up
Devante is a humble soul... His so reserve and unique.. I've never see a genuine like devante
@@ez-duz-itYeah you should have said that the first time 😂 just the producer was disrespectful to that man.
I had a crush on this chick for years 😂😂😂 Sisqo a legend still top 10 vocalist
YALL CAPPIN IF YALL DONT THINK SISQO CANT OUT SING KCI ...SISQO VOICE !!!!
that legendary gloria valez and sisqo vid with melyssa ford
Jpdeci was just different
Russell Simmons interview...☺☺☺
Look at God! Now Dru Hill and Jodeci are on your together with the Legendary SWV!
See y'all next month!!!!!
Incomplete is a classic song for real but wasn’t Sisqo singing & hugging his dog in that video with a blue rag on his head like a sensitive gangsta? 😂
Not a sensitive gangsta 😂
She's low key flirting and they really have good chemistry
Looks EXACTLY like Russell Simmons now Lol. Oh wow
I agree with Gloria about the INCOMPLETE video. While she kept it real, seems like it was shots aimed at Lisa Raye 🤔
She definitely was hating! Bcuz Lisa got chosen over her😂😂
Thumbnail looked like Russell Simmons instead of Sisqo
He looks like Russel Simmons
😂frfr even sound like him a bit
Niggaz got no mustache or facial hair
Sisqo kci's impression is 100%.
Sisqo looking like Russell Simmons outchere.😂
i always said dude sounded like K Ci lol
omggg sisqo was so shady towards the end. chile. messy.
Bruh how he never met Devonte, that’s crazy.
She said the video wasnt iconic lmao, the shade.
Right IDK why she's shading LisaRaye maybe they have had some conflict or maybe she's full of herself the Video would. of not been any better for any reason she confused me with that one plus this is my first time seeing this chick
Beauty is my fave Dru hill song. Lisa raye would have probably been perfect for that video.
I just saw them in concert together. That’s weird.
Watch your mouth Gloria!!!!! You know Sisqo don't sound better!!!!! Watch your mouth!!!!
Glo would rag you. Stop it
Funny thing.... I was offer d a record deal in the early 2000's because i sounded like a cross between aaron hall, sisquo and tyrese.... 😂😂😂😂
Devante know he need to go say hi to him, 😢
They were and are two of my favorite groups from that era. The could sing! Boyz to Men kicked off the male vocal group with old school harmony thing in the 90’s. They were the best at harmony but did not have a strong lead vocalist like Jojo Hailey or Sisqo.
Is it a joke???ain’t nobody can tell something to BIIM!!
Definitely could hear the node I influence but I preferred Dru Hill songs overall.
Damn Gloria looks better than ever
Oooh she a BIG hater! Bih! Let it go..Lisa got it and did a phenom job and she looked absolutely Gorgeous!
She definitely hating and big mad too!
@@nikkiloveslife4841 yes bcuz y'all have more opportunities and alot going on versus them.....they have to use black men to get a opportunity or be in your space to even be seen
You know, now that she mentions it, Incomplete is not an iconic video. All I remember is the picture fame😂😂 one minute he was in it, the next minute he wasn’t.
Cisco starting to look like Russell Simmons !
Devante Swing been coming out having fun like us his fans been wanting him to do for years please don't speak on him in any negative way he that nigga frl
Kci was far superior. He has a sone on the 1996 Winter Olympics soundtrack called "Wildflower". Its on UA-cam check it out
