@darkchild30034 I don't blame him. Diddy was doing his usual. Pushing off this project to Jodeci and Faith Evans. Its like he was trying to ruin Usher's career. He had no input on Usher's debut album and the album sucked. I'm so glad Usher didn't take this sitting down like B5 and Dream and the other failed diddy projects. Usher and his mom went to So So Def and revamped his career in Atlanta.
The shear genius of Jodeci's Devante Swing shown here. As a producing musician in1994 I heard this realized that even though people liked my stuff--I still could not match soemthign like this. I'd leave the studio and drive home listening to this trying to unlock it? Listening...studying....studying. Fu@king amazing. Still is.
I don't think Usher even remembers this...his first single. I remember being 14 years old, diving in front of the TV to watch this. VH1 and The Box used to play this in Sacramento. He was 13 years old, and I loved him then and I love him now. Usher Ray bay bay! I don't think even he remembers the words to this song, I tried to get his attention at the concert when he said he was looking for his original fans. He didn't see me OF COURSE! IS was on the floor but row 24

I KNEW that Timbaland would try some slick shit and say that he produced this song. lol It's pitiful. Give credit to the great Donald DeGrate Jr. aka DeVante Swing!!!!! smh
This version is tight it sounds a little different from the original version I can wait for Jodeci return with a new album DeVante production is unreal.
This song sounds so damn sexy!!! : ) it makes me zone out i looove the beat omg! imagine driving 2 dis shit. and DeVante look so damn good and Usher so sexy : ) i love this song i got did on my ipod the regular version though i like the extended version better...yeah its dope!
This is without a doubt the best usher song ever made. this beat and the lyrics are just perfect. also considered in my current situation. i love hearing this song !
Remember lil' chris from boyz n the hood movie.....that's the hairstyle Devante was rockin' back then.....he was inspired by the gangsta rap element in 1995. b/c of Deathrow records
This is one of ushers best, IF NOT best songs. You can tell timbaland did some programming because, they are the snares/drums he uses now. But, DeVante probably played the keys. If you got to Timbalands myspace, he says HE produced this. Lol. who knows...
timbo aint shit without devante lol, he really said that on his myspace he produce this song lol. Cuz on the cd, the credit says devante produced it and daryl pearson did the bass line. Timbaland was only credited for doing the instruments lol
lol. yup! he said it! Exactly. I read the credits also. You can tell it was tims snares. They them joints he use now but, he cant PLAY like DeVante. DeVante can really PLAY the piano, etc. I mean, i like them both. I wish DeVante would come back out. You gotta read that article in the Vibe when Static (RIP) passed, DeVante was in it talking. I wonder where he is....
Have you read the interviews that Susan from Sugah and Smokey from Playa did recently? They shed light on some things. Susan was saying Timbo didn't actually develop his own signature sound until around 97/98, which I can believe. . To me, this sounds like signature Devante. It has that trippy, atmospheric sound and that ain't Timbaland.
people will know if jdc is doing sum. i will make sure of that LOL...for one. & trust me the rest of the jdc family of fans would do the same. i rep jdc hard u know that! :)
Yo, do you have the instrumental of this song? I had before but I lost it. I 've been looking for the track for YEARS! I will be a HAPPY man if I can find that instrumental track! I love the 80's and 90's music. PEACE
GOD BLESS DEVANTE SWING
