  • The Isley Brothers (Ron Isley/Mr. Biggs) & Chante Moore & Tyrese appeared on Jay Leno's show September 5, 2001. They performed (and acted out) the song "Contagious" from The Isley Brothers 2001 album "Eternal". The lyrics to Contagious are below. R. Kelly is the writer and producer of this track.
    Contagious (Lyrics)
    [Verse 1]
    It's 2 A.M. I'm just getting in about to check my message
    No one has called but my homies and some bill collectors
    Cellular rings, somebody wants to borrow money
    I two-way her she don't hit me back something is funny
    So I called her mother's house and asked her has she seen my baby
    Roll my six around looking for that missing lady
    Got back in turned the TV on and caught the news
    Then I put my hand on my head cause I'm so confused
    And then I turned the TV down
    Cause I thought I heard a squeaky sound
    Somethings going on upstairs
    And I know nobody else lives here
    "bump bump bump" as I get closer to the stairways all I hear
    Then I hear my baby's voice in my ear screaming out....
    [Chorus]
    You're contagious, touch me baby, give me what you got
    (and then a man said)
    Sexy lady drive me crazy, drive me wild
    (And I just can't believe this shit)
    [Verse 2]
    I ran downstairs looked in the closet looking for that ooo
    Said a prayer cause only God knows what I'm gonna do
    What I saw was enough to drive a Preacher wild
    I'm in the hall contemplating "not in my own damn house"
    Who would have thought she was creeping with another man?
    The down low happening to me all over again
    And then I turned the TV down
    Cause I know I heard a squeaky sound, something going on upstairs
    Cause I know no one else lives here
    "Bump bump bump" as I get closer to the stairways all I hear
    Then I hear my babies voice in my ear screamin'....
    [Chorus]
    You're contagious, touch me baby, give me what you got
    (and then a man said)
    Sexy lady drive me crazy, drive me wild
    (And I just can't believe this shit)
    [Verse 3:]
    Ron: What the hell is going on between the sheets in my home?
    Chante: Baby wait let me explain before you start to point your cane
    Ron: Girl, I'm about to have a fit
    R. Kelly: "Oh it's about to be some shit!"
    How did I get in to this? Should have never came home with this bitch!
    Ron: Low down dirty woman, back to where you come from
    Chante: "but baby wait"
    Ron: "But wait", my ass
    Hit the streets your ass is grass!
    R. Kelly: Now, Mister Biggs, before you're done--
    Ron: "Wait how you know my name son?"
    Chante: "Honey wait I was gonna tell you"
    Ron: "Move this cat looks real familiar"
    Hmmm?!?! Now don't I know you from somewhere a long time ago?
    R. Kelly: No, no, I don't think so
    Ron: Yeah, yeah, I feel I know you brother very well
    R. Kelly: No, no, you're mistaking me for somebody else
    Chante: Frank!
    Ron: SHUT UP! Can't you see two men are talking?
    Chante: But--
    Ron: Thought I told your ass to get to walking!
    Now I think you all better leave this place
    Cause I'm about to catch a case

    Tyrese did his thing, but I'd rather see The Isley's, R. Kelly and Chante Moore perform this together. The only time I've seen the three of them perform this was I think the BET Awards one year for an Isley Brothers tribute. No hate on Tyrese tho, he did his thing.

    I thought the lady Chante Moore was just a model in the music video, didn’t know she was an actual singer too. This song and the year 2001 was pretty good, except of course the tragic and life changing events of 9/11 (RIP to the victims).
