This Is What Happened to Jodeci

I know but this generation is very powerfully influenced by this wack shit they put out today especially on the radio like the top people like cardi b da baby meg de stallion pop smoke all these new people and seriously like they really showing off women to the extreme constantly all ass blatantly sex I see why lauryn hill remember her from that song THAT THING left the music industry because for female artists it's all about sex appeal and imagery and of course nowadays all they rap about is money cars women sex poppin pills violence and showing it to the extent like every single time and with the old school shit Dalvin got more internet play than radio play and what pisses me off is whenever a biopic of a person that was from the 90s to 2000s or when a person from that time period does a collab with the new artists or when their songs are put on games like gta or movies people will literally come out trying to jump on the band wagon acting like they fw the old school after they spent years saying it's old lame corny and try walking up to a youngins asking him/her do they know biggie smalls c murder master p jodeci they gonna look at you like huhhh who are they and the others will be like ohhh I know them I got their songs from a gta game yeah this generation is super bad

It’s almost like they want you to die or be reckless to have success in music

[@Arimas-bx2rt]

The record companies aren't in the business to make the artist rich. Record labels are just glorified loan sharks. Most artist don't really make anything from their 1st album. After the label takes their cut, the artists still have to pay writers, producers, graphics, promotion, travel, food, hotel stays, stylist, choreography and every other miscellaneous expenses needed to make a successful album and tour. Most artist don't realize this, when they start spending that big advance that the label gives them during signing. That's why a lot of artist go broke or end up stuck and indebted to the label for more albums than the original agreement. When you consider what they have to do, go through, and sacrifice, it's not really worth it, unless you're an independent artist or you're the next Whitney Houston and you really know your worth.

[@darrylcarter3691]

It just goes to show you; fame and fortune is not what you think it is. Jesus Christ is the only way to happiness. Turn to him, you turn to God. God always sets the right path for all of us. Satan and the industry had them mess up obviously. I wish these guy the Best. The Music Industry is Evil.

[@jordashi]

@@YouBigDummy I really hate how people just assume the music industry is so evil, like yeah it has it's temptations but that comes with any industry you go in that you can make a lot of money from. The problem is people get caught up in the fast lifestyle of the industry and not really pay attention to what they are doing. But the industry itself isn't all that evil, sure you have shady execs, shady managers, and so forth but what you get out of the industry is what you contribute and you maintaining your career. So many of these artist get in the game but can't sustain a career because they're too busy trying to party, if you care for you career then it can be a long one without drug abuse or getting locked up all the time.

[@jacqs7585]

Jodeci was the soundtrack of my youth! Still listening from then until now. Thanks @RealRealityGossip 🙌🏾💫

[@NoirandModernEntertainment]

I miss Jodeci... These artist were born with unique vocal cords that can't be matched , substituted , or forgotten. You can't dance to every beat. Musically , you can do what you feel , but , thats not all music is about. It affects all that we do , feel , need , want , think we want , gonna do , feel , need , and want and have already done. Either you speak the language or you don't speak the language. These cats harmony is something you wanna listen to. Its nothing like reminiscing. We all do it all the time. We all get to do it anytime. We all go through some personal and tough times. I certainly can relate. Thats why its great to be able to make your mark , an effective one , if you possibly can , one way or another. Jodeci is definently on that list. Their talent will last and be talked about for centuries to come. And guess what: i get to listen to their voices , harmony , and music just by the touch of a button. Love you Jodeci , and may God bless you and your family.🥰🥰🤑🤑😷😷😎😎🥳🥳💋💋💗💗💯💯✌✌👍👍☝️☝️🙏🙏🤳🤳💅💅✍✍🙏🙏💪💪🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🌏🌏💒💒🏖🏖🏝🏝🌅🌅🌄🌄🌇🌇🚅🚅🚗🚗✈✈⛴⛴🌟🌟🔥🔥🌈🌈🌷🌷🍅🍅🥝🥝🍉🍉🍊🍊🍋🍋🍍🍍🥕🥕🥦🥦🥬🥬🥩🥩🍗🍗🥓🥓🍳🍳☕☕🍵🍵🍽🍽I can't leave you alone...

[@jovieappoggiatura]

Wow, the history. Heavy D put them on, did them a solid, helped them out, opened that door, gave them the chance they were prepared for. And Jodeci was a great name how they came up with that! This enhances my respect for Heavy D

Feb. 20, 2022, I finally saw Jodeci open for Charlie Wilson and New Edition (headliner) as a 44-year-old at State Farm Arena as special guests. It brought such joy to my heart seeing them all on the stage together. I'll never forget being in 8th grade and listening to them for the first time on a friend's Sony Walkman cassette player. She had recorded "Forever My Lady" from WGCI in Chicago.

[@SwaggSkillz1992]

Jodeci Is Legit The Most Talented R&B group in the 90’s!! Not to take away from other acts, but DeVantè’s/Mr. Dalvin’s production was #Impeccable!! KC & JoJo always Rippin each song!!! *I Love Jodeci’s music!!* 💯💯💯💯

This is the group we were following when we were trying to get a deal. We were meeting with them alot. At first they thought we were groupies. Uh no! It wasn't until we went to Kci and Jojo house in Jersey when they knew we were singers singers. My mom prayed us out of that industry. And I thank God now that she did. The Harleys were goung to start a label names Clownin of which we were going to start. But I to this day don't know what happened. But I believe it was God intervening. They were very talented and cool. Much love to them. Oh and Suge heard us sing via Davante hearing us.
