[@chrisjohnson4039]

Robert Lloyd I take it as a compliment that Jodeci was "too black" for the Grammys. They were Stax Records, while Boyz II Men were MOTOWN. Jodeci never compromised the integrity of their music and gain worldwide fan support. Te salude', Mr. Dalvin...

[@TheLAKERSareGodsTeam]

I think it serves their image well to have never received a Grammy. An act like Jodeci can further position itself as outsiders and outcasts without one. Talent unrewarded by the establishment, respected by the street. It's better for them this way.

[@balls_down_ya_throat456]

Jodeci predicted the future with r&b. When you look deeper who was really better ? Jodeci or boys 2 men ? Boys 2 men where better singers. But Jodeci was more talented. Dalvin and Devante could play instruments,sing background,arrange,write, produce and have a eye for talent. Missy,Timberland, Ginuwine and Static and Tweet. And Kci and Jojo were the soul voices. Boys 2 men had to amazing albums. Babyface wrote they’re biggest hits end of the road and I’ll make love to you. But Devante wrote Majority of Jodeci hits with the help of Swing Mob. Jodeci had 3 multiplatinum albums Boys 2 men were done by they’re 3rd album. Jodeci brought a edge to the game with style and swag. Boys 2 men got caught up like all the r&b groups before them. Then Kci and Jojo went solo and had 3 platinum albums. I rest my case.

Devante is one of my favorite producers of all time, and Jodeci is one of my favorite bands of all time.

[@evelyngarrett5971]

this is true!!!!

[@brittanyburley8966]

It's amazing how almost every group from back in the day (60s-90s) had their own individual sound but today's solo artists all sound the same... Uhm uhm uhm. What a shame but anyways... Jodeci 's first album was good all the way through. Basically, back in the day, your whole album had to be good to be considered popping (but they was still broke). But today, it only takes a single to be popping (and they get rich).. This generation is backwards and pitiful!

[@shante70sb]

I would love a DeVante interview but that will NEVER HAPPEN in this lifetime. U don’t see him no more in the public eye and he doesn’t do interviews. He haven’t did that since the 90’s. The only time we seen DeVante Swing is when he had that side pony tail and Jodeci perform at the soul train awards in 2016, 2017 one of them.

[@maryrice7511]

Yes wit his sexy ass!!

[@dontworryitsjustvitinho]

Isn’t DeVante traumatized after he got robbed? Doubt we’ll see any interviews from him

they were with Uptown first and Puffy and Andre Harrell were in charge of them, so it's natural his future groups had a similar style. It was other artists like Guy and R Kelly that was biting hard
