Wow!! I love and miss the 90s and Jodeci, wish I had a time machine. This was when music was worth listening to and the awards shows worth watching. All of the artists nominated deserve an award for just making quality, good music not the trash we have today. And I love the way DeVante goes and hugs a member of Boyz II Men, they were really happy for them. Why and how did music downhill? Can anyone make music like this anymore?!!
Did y'all see when they going up there to give their speech? You can take them out the hood, but can't take the hood out of them! Haha they was hella happy.
this is how u can tell music meant more back then...the reaction to the award shows u how much work they actually put in...nowadays, its all politics...ppl just gotta have a couple catchy songs that drown the airwaves and they are considered the best...smh
@t wildkims2008,yeah I heard that too lol,thats 1o the reasons they say him n TBoz aint workout,cause he was new to da gm, u kno kinda slo wit the virgin mentality anyway she wanted a thug so she left him for Mack10,and we all kno how that turned out!The millenium Ike n Tina lmao!
I usta allways say wat was dalvins purpose for the group he never sings lead,i even heard devante sing lead 1nce but now I kno,he was the group spokesman lol,thats the only time I heard him,awards shows and interviews,no wonder the haileys broke out,probly said these niggas eatn of our voices and getn more groupies pretty mufuckas!!
@29larron lol sooo true he was the spokesman hahaha. but kci and devante got the most groupies. did you know dalvin didn't lose his virginity until the second album
jodeci won the award fair enough, from people like GUY & PRINCE, legends, now that is competition, nowadays you don't even have competition because half of these r&b singers are damn corny
@MolecularCaramela no, at 0:53 when he comes in, i use to try to say that all the time, but i couldn't never say it as smooth as he did, me and my sister use to watch this all the time, i think Boyz II Men performed right before they did, introduced by
Str8 Up PRETTY RICKY Imitated Jodeci, My opinon! and I was a baby when these guyz ripped. So blessed to have older siblings and family who helped me grow up to REAL music!! DAMN, If only the R&B today were more about the raw talent of the basics (singing, stage presence, producing) rather than sales n sngz 4 da mment. Todays R&B is really Rubbish and Bullcrap :)
@micperk yes he did!!!! little do you know, he really did sing the backup vocals if you really pay attention, and i dont think anyone has ever heard him sing before but i have and he's good!!! well of course he's good because he's with jodeci but i heard him sing at the end of father mc's song "treat them right" or something like that. watch the video and you will see right at the end he's singing with k-ci
@datmixedkid2396 you are partly right..devante can sing but on the father mc song jo jo is actually singing with his brother..they swaped singers to make the apeal more sexy for the video...in other words the director suggested that D lip synce instead of jojo because he looked better
I remember this Soul train awards... I saw this and almost had a heart attack... I loved me sum Jodeci then, now and forever! I know i have this taped somewhere but thanx for this post. MEMORIES!
Whoever or anybody saying that Sisqo, sounds better that K-Ci, Sisqo don't, but even if he did, you know what is funny, K-Ci came out first, HA,HA! So that makes him the teacher and Sisqo the student! In Hip Hop terms that like saying Prodigy is better than Rakim! And everbody knows that Sisqo and Prodigy learn to craft there voices from the above teachers mention! Enough Said!
it just dont get no better than jodeci! i dont think there will ever be another group that will even compare! im so glad i got to grow up on this music, even though im still kind of young and i was a kid when this came out, but i feel like i got to experience some of the best times in music!
no its not. dru hill didn't steal anything they have diffrent styles the only similarityis sisqo's and kci's voice. dru hill tell stories when they sing jodeci dosn't. while jodeci is the bad boy group and boyz 2 men the good boy group dru hill are in the middle.
so sisqo borrowed the yeaa part and in my opinion i think he's better at it! i mean k-ci sounds like bobby womack and david ruffin. that is where he has gotten his style from.
Yo you had me until you said Sisqo is better than K-Ci You're far from the truth! I mean I agree K-Ci does sound like David and Bobby but sisqo is not better
oh and if not in the same leage why is sisqo and kci performing in japan on the 22nd. if you don't believe me go to sisqo's myspace and look up the pic!
i remember watching this the night it came on!!! i was like 11. my mom never got over that lil move kci did at 44 seconds where he pulled down his pants lol...from that moment he became "the one that pulled his pants down on stage"!!
And the love everyone had for them when Jodeci won is NOTHING like it is now...Boyz II Men even congratulated them, such love, now artist are too concerned with starting beefs, its a shame what music has turned into
That's true..is this the Soul Train Awards, its a shame that black artist don't feel its important to go to the black award shows where R&B and hip-hop get the recognition they deserve that will never will be acknowledged at the Grammy's, AMA's, and Billboards. That's why the Soul Train Awards doesn't even air anymore
I know! That is what I was saying. THEY beat THEM!!! I would have been jumping like that too. I remember the day this was on and I saw this performance, but I was half sleep at the time of the award. When they said Jodeci won, I jumped up and was screaming. I was soooo happy for them. Like the other poster, I watch this and still get the feeling that I felt when I first saw them!! I love them, but just dissapointed to see them how they are now. Hope they get it together and drop a new one soon.
damn kci at 1:29 wtf lol i think that sounded great
