Right. They seem very level headed here but you know...drugs and alcohol will change you real quick. I just think they were young and impressionable and maybe tried to fit in a little too much.

K-ci, Jojo and DeVante could’ve looked better than they do know had they not did all that wild stuff back then.

Yeah we shouldn't judge, but I think people are feeling sorry for them. All this talent God had gave them was PHENOMENAL, and wild living (the devil) took it away! Took away their voices and skills. They aren't even mere shadows of their former selves today. Their voices and talent are completely gone. I think people are sad, because its TRAGIC! They were so anointed vocally and musically, probably more than Boyz II Men, but Satan comes to kill steal and destroy. He came after them because their anointing was so strong. It almost makes me cry

[@bumchong1]

Rodney Davis I agree.They set themselves apart from other groups because Devante could produce their songs in their own way.They probably are the best R&B group ever.And their sound never get old.

[@ertfgghhhh]
