Young Jodeci.. Man I wish I could be the age I am now in this Time Era... But then again if I was I'll be like 40 something... I'll pass but this time was the best... Music, TV show, Cartoons, and when being black was Awesome.... Gotta Love Spike Lee Movies... Now Entertainment is DEAD!!!!

[Lescambro]

Puffy made Father MC's image his image! Wow! This was my jam back in the day. Father MC was so sexy! K-Ci sure could sing! I really hope they make a comeback!

[tifj1]

Look at Diddy background dancing! HA!

[ACLA551C]

The dancer at 4:54 looks like a young Sean 'Puffy' Combs. I could be mistaken.

[northtampaboy]

@ACLA551C  that is puffy

[sonnyjz]

@ACLA551C that is puffy

[2288bigman]

[MONEYAINTATHANG100]

@MoneyC225 SEE

[bobthechipmonk]

You should tell em what they want!

You should tell em lies!!

[gameshowluvr86]

Our first look at Jodeci!!! WOOT...

[perfectbeat]

Blows my mind that this was 20 years ago. This was also the first time I heard Jodeci.

Great singers. Love this song.

[ILuvMusic4real]

baby yea, baby yea, baby yea, baby yea. That's my part, luv that!

[JayCMoney818]

MAN FUCK THESE ADVERTISEMENTS!!!!!!!

[Choklyte]

Swing 2 swing, go Jodeci and puff daddy!!!!!!

[The808Prophet]

I roll the same way

[NadieeeeeeS101]

R I P Heavy D

[ChillyChillBrooknam9]

what a punk

[2288bigman]

Devante actually sings solo on the show the after party the hotel CD on the song i be going solo pump it back interlude Devante sings with a lower tone bass top voice if i-am correctly and he also has a solo song called gin&juice. Kc-Jojo were the main vocalists in the group with dalvin and devante doing the backgrounds production arranging the writing and instruments of the songs well devante mostly.

[Tony1TAKE]

@2288bigman thank you man...been telling people that for YEARS

[SusieAlsn]

D'Vante was a musical genious and so young, the real story is that while on tour with the infamous guy that was rumored to have had something to do with Tup being killed. D'Vante was badly assaulted and threatened. then Jodeci faded away. Jodeci was HOT...

[da1andonlyGemini]

Why did Puffy change his name to Diddy?? Puff Daddy has got to be the best nickname in the history of nicknames.

Devante was so handsome <3

[armendaWhite71]

luv this song, really gud days!

[albsurelove]

Listening to this song still gives me Chills. Jodeci's vocals on this song is just WOW!!!!! Especially at the end **Singing Baby Yeah, baby YEAHH, BABY YEAHHHHH** Father MC was another trendsetter.

[NadieeeeeeS101]

isnt DEvante a crack head now that sold all the rights to his shit so he can smoke that shit up?

[MrTheseanbishop]

@NadieeeeeeS101 no hes not a crackhead

[MssrSilkyJohnson]

"n*gga got dolphin teeth.." lmbao

[barberworld011]

Wish this music came back. Classic

[Caesar1906]

Father MC was ahead of his time. He wasn't a singer and he wasn't a rapper, either. He was just an entertainer.

[GrumpyOldAssFart]

@Caesar1906

yet he reminded me of watered down Big Daddy Kane on the New Jack Swing tip.

[xXSuckxYaxMuddaXx]

LMAO @ Devante lip sycin to Jo-Jo's vocals...

[415smallville]

i wish i have a high top fade!

[balletbabe104]

That is DEFINITELY DeVante singing. Jojo's voice is higher pitched when he sings, and the voice singing sounds like DeVante's speaking voice. I know that doesn't mean anything, but seriously people? It is so obvious to tell that that is DeVante singing. DeVante and Dalvin CAN sing, and they do.

[4paterson1]

@balletbabe104 dey can sing but dats not davante singing

[balletbabe104]

@4paterson1 it's just so blatantly obvious that it's devante singing when him and k-ci are going back and forth.

[daxman07]

Buggin on Diddy dancin' in the background!

[JavonteTreble]

Jojo without his hat in the early days??? I didn't know that was even possible!

[TheGuNiT187]

0:48 Puffy on the left dancing

[datjerzeynigga1]

thats too funny, ,my ass got child support issues too!!!

[daveibukun]

Look at Puff dancing in the background, hillarious. Puff has sure come a loooong way for sure.

[waterbabybug]

just realized thats redhead kingpin dancin next to diddy

[29larron]

@tbkbelly89,lol I hear ya n im secure wit my sexuality to give the brother his props,he was a handsome cat key word was lmao

[29larron]

@bkbelly89 Thank u,theses Devante Stans dont wanna realize that Devante n Dalvin didnt sing lead ,cause they couldnt.The only reason they had Devante n Kci goin back n forth cause devante was eye candy for the chicks,so they had him lipsync JoJos part.The same way CnCMusic Factory(remember them?) did that heavy sista by replacing her image with a skinny honey in they video 1.

[daveibukun]

WHAT?? is that Kci and Jojo and puff? hahhahaha.

[oughdahinge]

Yea, an Sean Combs was a backup Dancer for thus cat to.

[oughdahinge]

Yea, an Sean Combs was a backup Dancer fir this cat to.

[martro99]

Haa! Father MC look like Chris Rock! Lol!

[martro99]

Classic! I did not know that was Jodeci signing background.

[MissRacheeRache]

Finally I found him singinnnnnnnnnnnng (: and is that diddy? lmaooo

[AussieLebo]

[ElConquistadorNo1]

Sucker MC

[Swaggruler]

[Swaggruler]

Devante is in this video, He just young as hell...Befor the cocaine mad his nose big

[JGreer313]

wtf puff daddy look gay as fuck with that dancing shit at 4:23, 4:33 and 4:37. RT

[uniquesongstress]

@bkbelly89 no devante was singing, that doesnt sound anything like jojo

[wildkims2008]

@uniquesongstress yeah i agree. we don't know devante's voice that well, but it's clearly not jojo's voice. Also because k-ci and jojo usually do that "baby yeah" thing and jojo's voice is higher.

[MsRtrent]

Love it!!! Wow

Oh my goodness. ...P- Diddy, Jodeci!!!! WOW!!! Awesome

[MsRtrent]

Love it!!! Wow

[dbabyt1981]

@bkbelly89 LMAO I don't know why he did that....maybe Jojo had to go pee or something..lol

[CassiusAli3000]

Why yall hatin on puffy dancin...Hell...It was cool to dance back then.We all know he a cream puff, just let him make it. My mom tried to cut my hair like this back in the day...HORRIBLE...

[87DecadeRider]

I remember trying hard as a motherfucker to get my hair to look like Father Mc's... Only problem is i'm white.

[87DecadeRider]

@87DecadeRider i was however able to pull off the high top fade doe with a few cans of aerosol hairspray... Only problem was that it turned out looking more like an ashtray... Guess i focused all my attention to gettin the fade proper and standing it up smoove,  not giving a second thought about what it looked like in the middle.

[Poutamaas]

Puff Daddy is one of his dancers!! Awesome

[leslimd]

puff daddy though....umpteen years later and dude still dancing around like an idiot....lmao

[suggarkanebrown679]

@leslimd ahahahahahaha on point! you sooo right :) xx

[87DecadeRider]

@leslimd LMAO!!!... That comment just made my day... Hell nah... Puffy just oozes cornball, and on the real, i'm still beefed that he never got served for him and piggie. settin up Pac, and him taking 5 bullets. 2pac was a beast doe, dude just got shot 5 times, once in his dome, and the first thing he does is get smoked out before finally getting medical treatment, a couple hours after gettin shot up.Notorious P.I.G. got his doe. R.I.P. Tupac Shakur, you are a true legend no one can compare.

[soulchild0808]

@bkbelly89 you must have never heard them sing acapella? all of them can sing. talent.

[JuicyDouchie]

fucked up hair cut!!!

[71666kdb]

God I miss that New Jack sound!

[DutchKalhoun]

Prince Markie Dee from the Fat Boys!

[DutchKalhoun]

Jodeci, Diddy, Heavy D, Mary J, & Father Mc were all on Uptown at one point.

[supalena]

wow, thats P Diddy dancing in the background.

[Coolbird00]

LOL P diddy!!!!! ha, ha, ha.

[m1dn1teru387]

[BigSed69]

[smoke301]

[makeulook2xx]

Look at PUFFy b4 the $



[reddboi7]

Diddy has come a long way since dancing in this video.

[cinvla]

classic vid a young jodeci wit puffy dancing in the back lol

[cinvla]

classic vid a young jodeci wit puffy dancing in the back lol

[MrRnbMan]

Puffy been dancin in ppl videos since the late 80s..lol..he was in a Stacy Lattisaw video dancin behind her.

[HassanLuv78]

You know whats sad.....Puffy became a top entertainment mongol, Jodeci is one of the best R&B male groups of all time, and Mary J. Blige(Who is in other Father MC video) is one of the best female soul/R&B singers ever......So, I ask this question....What the HELL happened to Father MC?????

[2nkc]

@HassanLuv78 he is a nude model for women in playgirl magazine. Probably making more money now then he was then

[daveibukun]

@HassanLuv78 which Father MC video is Mary J. Blige in?

[HassanLuv78]

@daveibukun ....She's in his "I'll do for you" video.....She's the main chick you see singing the hook. I think that was her first music video appearence

[datjerzeynigga1]

@HassanLuv78 came along at a good time but shortly after is when "gangsta rap" blew up. Thats my guess. FatherMC told us how to be good to a woman. basically what a father should do.. Good looking out FatherMC

[mgaleotti86]

@datjerzeynigga1 Funny shit is his ass got setup by Wendy Williams and a baby mama and arrested for being a dead beat dad. He owed like $60,000 in back child support.

[MssrSilkyJohnson]

@HassanLuv78 n*gga's baggin groceries in queens.

[yungsandifer]

@HassanLuv78 shit i thought puffy was father MC reinvented when i first seen that cat back in 93.

[TitaFinita1]

love the song..omg look at diddy smh lmao!

[MsMedford]

all yall talkin bout young ass puffy. what bout young ass jodeci singin in the background

[HassanLuv78]

Puffy dancing his ass off !!!! LOL

[xGOSSIPGIRL95]

DIDDY THE DANCER AT 4:22? LMAOOOOO!!

[Tony1TAKE]

Devante can sing..he has nice falsetto an d is the one singing in the low register on Stay

[cotb16]

@Tony1TAKE Although DeVante might be seen singing in the video, it's actually JoJo doing that part.

[Koco1978]

@cotb16 it's actually K-Ci.

[Tony1TAKE]

@cotb16 I knew that...Devante' more than likely did the vocal arrangement though..

[TrinityInfinityful]

OMGosh, I have never heard Devante' Swing sing, I've always wondered if he could...He actually sounds pretty good.

[ThatGuyTooHigh]

@TrinityInfinityful ....you obviously aint a Jodeci fan....that is clearly Jojo's voice. They just used Devante for the video

[TrinityInfinityful]

@ThatGuyTooHigh Correction Mr/Ms. Too High, I am K-Ci & JoJo, and Jodeci's #1 fan; however you are correct about one fact..."that is clearly JoJo's voice" with Devante lip-syncing the words. When I saw this video yesterday, I paid attention to Devante moving his lips as though he was singing, convincing me that the person singing was Devante, and not JoJo. Many artists sound similar and after I listened a bit closer after ur comment I concluded that the person singing at the end was indeed JOJO.

[flameone1000]

Just looking at this haircut, what the hell were we thinking back then? I know that everybody had one of those haircuts back then. I tried, but my hair was too nappy, so I (my mom really) kept it low. Still, I wanted one, I thought those haircuts were too cool! Now, I just laugh when I see them:)

[Mscocoa916]

@flameone1000 Them Gumby's was fly for the era tho. I saw this dude at the college I go to with one of them. Yea...I got hella weak. But back in the day U was the shit if U had one of them. LOL! Goodtimes

[flameone1000]

@Mscocoa916 You right though, those were some very good times!

[SumthynnSpecial]

Damn Diddy even had to be in the video's back then too huh @ 4:22

[jazzyfayy1983]

his real name is timothy brown

[duncv1]

I LOVE HIS MUSIC!! DANG ITS FUNNY SEEING ALL THE BIG STARS BACK IN THE DAY IN THE BACKGROUND! P DIDDY AND JODECI!!

[JasonTyberiusKirk]

Treat em' like they wan to be treated. Slap the shit out of them when they get out of line and fuck them really well and their friend too.

[phatblackwoman]

Everybody asking about P.Diddy in the video but is that Redhead Kingpin dancing with him? And that's Prince Markie Dee of the Fat Boys not Fred Hammond, LOL

[dmariomc]

3:49 is that Fred Hammond? LMAOOOOOO

[ThickMarcia1987]

@dmariomc lmao..you wrong for that.

[72postell]

@dmariomc That's Prince Markie Dee from the Fat Boys... lol

[lrdub2]

i'm going to break down the true meaning of irony. during the time of this video father mc was the main focus. then jodeci kicked their stuff off and was smoking. there in the background doing the dancing was a young sean puffy combs. he has surpassed both father mc and jodeci. IRONY

[662chillin]

@lrdub2 Plus Mary J. Blige sang the hook for his other big single "I'll do 4 U" ... so yeah unlike today, even the stars had to pay their dues and play their role until it was the RIGHT time...

[dogromeo]

Father Mc has a new album under the name fambody, probably the best album he ever made, everybody should definetely check it out, at 7digital you can download it

[karey26]

Uptown baby!! Back in the day they had some dope artists - Heavy D & The Boyz, Father MC, Jodeci, MJB, Christopher Williams, Al B Sure. New Jack 4 Ever

[ibm615o]

my friend just brought me to this video..havent heard this song in years. good to hear devante get his adlib on...i didnt know that was puffy in the video until i saw his mouth wide open

[hairylegzzz]

devante sing! baby yeahhhh!

[shonda335]

@artsy069......Indeed that is Popping Pete aka Fendi from Far Rockaway Queens,Edgemere Houses. Fendi is my bff for 18 yrs.(Chuck)brother. He was the main dancer for EPMD and also sanged background on the song Who's your daddy with EPMD. Father MC is also from Far Rockaway.

[KATINA4441]

THE LIIGHTSKIN GUY DANCING WITH PUFF ISNT REDHEAD KINGPEN... HIS NAME IS PETE AND HE IS FROM FARROCKAWAY QUEENS EDGEMERE HOUSES..............

[ViperVisor]

Getting to see and hear DeVante sing a little at the end is a rare treat.

[hairylegzzz]

@ViperVisor i agre 100000%

[artsy069]

The other male dancer was redhead kingpin. Do the right thing.

[blizzyrock]

shout out to KENNY G-LOVE GREENE ON THE VOCALS WIT JODECI. R.I.P. BRO U WILL BE MISSED.......INTRO FOREVER.

[shonda335]

Indeed that's Puff from back in the days. Dancing with one of the best dancers from the late 80's/early 90's era...Pretty Popping Pete. Who was also EMPD main dancer. It's funny how when Puff used to come to Far Rock back in the days NOONE found him to be attractive at ALL. He was1 that gots no play. Unless u were a desperate dancer groupie. Even then,him, noway. It's true what they say money can ENHANCE ur outer man. Far Rockaway *Edgeout* all day. Father MC n Popping Pete. Love these dudes!!

[ajo1124]

One of my all time favorite songs .

[GMANKOOL23]

was that prince markie dee at 3:48

[mrterrenc]

@GMANKOOL23 yes

[JavonteTreble]

Is that really Devante Swing doing the "baby yeah" at the end with K-Ci, or is that someone else' voice? If that's him, why the hell didn't he ever sing lead? o.o

[sunnydelight6929]

how did puffy daddy go from backround dancers to BAD BOY ????

[HassanLuv78]

@sunnydelight6929 ...Hard work and paying his dues

[Drama313]

@sunnydelight6929 Same way 2Pac went from a back-up Dancer for Digital Underground to the greatest emcee to ever pick up a mic.

[sunnydelight6929]
