@BrownGolden Girl Yessir. JoJo was that dude back then. Four reasons.... "BUH Buh Buh Buh-aahhhh...." LOL. You know which part I'm talking about. Shit was smooth as hell. lol
You and the rest of the ladies.. In the 90's all the women were naming their babies Devante. A close friend had her Son before me and stole the name so I still worked off Devante and came up with a name. Well whenever people ask where his name for I have a quick answer Jodeci... I still love them to this day.
I use to too until it became well known he loves ww... I mean their success was because off bw, yet they desire non black woman. He became ugly asf after that
@Jay Jones I do remember them, but didn't really listen to their music. You're not the only one who mentioned Dru Hill or Sisqo. Ima have to put the headphones on and check their music out.
I absolutely love this performance, i rewatch it often. I know he is very unpopular right now, but R Kelly’s Slow Dance and Honey Love performances were pretty much on par with this one. And let’s not forget H town 🙌🏾 Dino 😍 Also a few years later Dru Hill came through and killed it. too
Jojo is killing it. I mean K-ci killed it too, but Jojo man everything was clear and pure. I was like kill it Jojo!!! I think this I was their best performance.👏👏👏👏 And now I will run this back on repeat.
@@sinfulthep773 oh don't get me wrong,I love kc,and he is a beast at singing im just saying,that at the young jodeci ,jojo is the only one that could stand up with kc singing,kc is the deep and jojo was heavenly smooth at that time,but kc with his deep voice blew it away
ActiveLivingChallenger Her name is Eva Issac aka Miss Apollo. She was in the front pumping the crowd up for 40 years. Here’s an article from 1994 featuring her. www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1994/06/25/front-and-center-at-the-apolloamateur-night-draws-a-tough-crowd-just-ask-eva-isaac/3ac0c8ac-10e9-4ccb-b8da-99e753d146f0/
Undeniably & without question one of the best live performances of a instant classic legendary hit song that's ever been recorded & performed live on stage period. Jodeci was handling their business behind the mic's on this track no doubt!!!!!!!!!! True heavyweights of r&b soul music💪😎💪
Kent Clark yes u could feel it in your own love life true meaning and feelings this music now a day's shaking my head where is the love it's just pure sex smh
K-Ci has such a distinct and memorable voice. You probably will never come across another voice like his. He’s in a class of his own. JoJo was killing it too, he has a melodic, clear yet soft voice. I think this might be one of the best performances.
Their best performance ever. They went all the way off. I remember before they made it big it was 1991 or 1992 saw them perform live in New Orleans at a City Park Fest.
Yes!!! I’ll also Include Joe, Stokley from Mint Condition, Jesse Powell (rip), Glenn Jones, Tevin Campbell, Donell Jones, Luther Vandross, Johnny Gill and I’m sure I’m missing a few but that’s who I can think of from the top of my head from that era.
Jodeci sure knows how to put on a show! This was the time when R&B and hip hop songs had purpose, none of that autotuned bullcrap you hear on the radio nowadays. I just noticed Dalvin repping my hometown of New Orleans with the Saints cap on, he still looks good. VH1 betta make sure the biopic is done right!
I taped this when I was in high school using a VHS and watched ALL through my adulthood. I know every word, every ad lib. Watching it today, I can see how he and Fantasia are cousins they literally leave EVERYTHING on that stage!! They Drain themselves and I used to be so obsessed with Jodeci but really with their live shows!! So much talent!!
I had that same stupid outfit back in the day, massive hooped earrings, red lipstick, a pierced nose & finger waves all upside my head 😂 oh the memories. I looked good tho, yeah the 90s were lit.
They sounded amazing. I wish I could time travel back to the 90s.
Danixo omg me too that is a dream of mine
You can, just listen to this...
Danixo yes me too
Danixo they don't make love songs like they use to u could feel it in your own love life

Man K-Ci is a beast vocally. He doesn’t get the credit he deserves for it
Amazing
++!@@KgJrKb q+q!))
All Natur-ahl ❤❤❤❤
To me JoJo is
I love you
HOW COULD YOU NOT LIKE JODECI?
fr
Unless they were more to Silk lol
Ah, nevermind the haters.
Classic here.
Right'
Im only 4 yellabones silk? They ain’t got nothing on jodeci
Jo-Jo has the most melodic voice ever...... He sang his ass off!
you aint shittin...goosebumps..
@BrownGolden Girl Yessir. JoJo was that dude back then. Four reasons.... "BUH Buh Buh Buh-aahhhh...."
LOL. You know which part I'm talking about. Shit was smooth as hell. lol
Yes jo jo can sing!!! I always love his stage present❤️
Too bad he completely lost his voice
@@openwindowsopendoors2688 I liked jo- jo voice better then k-ci's. K-ci was dope too though
K-Ci and Jojo put their heart and soul into this performance. My absolute favorite.
K-Ci has such a distinct and memorable voice.
The only voice ive heard come close is Sisqo
@@therealvsfake urban mystic has the closest voice to kci to me
He belts his Ancestors voices . . .
Definitely sisqo
Sisqo is the ONLY ONE close, but with a lighter higher pitch. Dru Hill was actually modeled after them...Sisqo said it himself
They killed this performance! This when Jodeci was at their prime!! Them Brothas and their harmonies were like no other!! 90s for yah!!
Classic! This is when they had fresh vocals. Never will be another Jodeci
NO DOUBT!!!!!!!
Yeah
Some way, some how, I always find myself watching anything that has the word JODECI in it. Gosh they were beasts. 😍
NaturalHawa FACTS!!!!!!
It was free😩💪💪beautiful times
Same lol 💙
U and iiiiiiiiiiii!
My absolute fave
Mine too, that was K-Ci doin that
Whenever their biopic comes out, watch how the views sky rocket.
Alayah Fenty true
Alayah Fenty right
Alayah Fenty yup✔💯💯💯
That always happens
Alayah Fenty right
The harmonies are so on point
Yes they are !!!
One of the best groups of all time! Kci and Jojo sung the hell out of this song.
One of their best live performances ever
If not the best!!
K-Ci has a strong voice. This was when R&B was on point
Yes them brothers❤️
Yeah
Absolutely but I remember when he was into Gospel first little Cedric and the Hailey singers
Their vocals are spectacular!
TRUE SINGERS, ZERO LIP SYCN 🙏🙏🙏
Raphaelle Meic Ilic Lypsynching is absolutely necessary tho when you are consistently singing though.
shawtyinluvwitthebeat Say it again!
That's that church glow 🎙️❤️
This will forever be my favorite song
Jasmine Livingston me 2 boo.

I was so in love with Devante........omg love him.

@@SHutchinson 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I can imagine
I use to too until it became well known he loves ww... I mean their success was because off bw, yet they desire non black woman.
He became ugly asf after that
@@moniqueavery8787 what huh? what happened?
No lip sync no nothing just pure voices 😫🫰..had to come back real quick 😭
The "Baby Yea" back & forth 4:28 - 4:34 . Yessssssss 😻🙌🏽
Jordyn Alexandriaaa that shit was powerful af
That’s the church boys in them! Lol
That took me back to Treat Them Like They Want To Be Treated by Father MC 😎
Lord yasss..jesus
They sound Damn good live. :)
Back in time at some of the last moments when black music honored and respected their black women.
Good observation
90s will always be the best
You will never come across another voice like K-Ci.. he's in a class all his own.
Yes.
u dont remember dru hill ? lol
@Jay Jones I do remember them, but didn't really listen to their music. You're not the only one who mentioned Dru Hill or Sisqo. Ima have to put the headphones on and check their music out.
@@lexdee523 please do. Because sisqo was cold.
@@Sidmaster22t I definitely will... thanks!
Wow!
The audience got their money’s worth.
The Apollo was free!!
The good days
Yep free and when artist had to work there asses off to be on there
jodeci...my all time R&B group.
Rogsmi Love there is nothing into the world like the perfect
I listen to them everyday. My favorite group since I was a little girl. Undeniable talent. All of them.
Sister pure black talent.what vocals. On point miss the old days.
Best performance on Showtime At The Apollo!!!!!!!!!!
K-ci's "You and IIIIIII" fire!!!!!!!!
Derrick Brown "Tell me can you PIC-ture my liTTle lady.." was my favorite part right there that K-Ci hit at!
gives me chills
I absolutely love this performance, i rewatch it often.
I know he is very unpopular right now, but R Kelly’s Slow Dance and Honey Love performances were pretty much on par with this one.
And let’s not forget H town 🙌🏾 Dino 😍
Also a few years later Dru Hill came through and killed it. too
@@jaywad8876 Kc-i out did himself in the performance!!
@@Epic4Evr1990 This performance and yes R Kelly's performance were the best Showtime At The Apollo performances!
Jojo is killing it. I mean K-ci killed it too, but Jojo man everything was clear and pure. I was like kill it Jojo!!! I think this I was their best performance.👏👏👏👏 And now I will run this back on repeat.
Yeah them boys had a real gift from God kc and jojo Haily where raised in the southern church they just had it
Jojo,could out sing kc ,smoothly
Jojo the only one that could out sing kc,but kc voice was just deeper
@@juanemaarmstrong8940 Got Love For Jojo, But He Wasn't No Kci. Stop That!

He had somebody grandma about to go crazy 😂😂😂 work then

Mike Jones ya who was she? I see her in a ton of Apollo performances

@@MikeJones-hg4ol I seen her in a couple of videos of Jodeci performances,I believe she was there every week too
When JoJo came in I get goosebumps. No matter how many times I hear him singing... He shut it down. Beautiful voice
The best to ever do it!
Bruh what's good lol
Black Caesar you spelled Rkelly n micheal jackson wrong lol
This is forever classic. We give a lot credit to Kci for his vocals. But JoJo held it down too
I love Jodeci, They are my favorite group ever. I also love DeVante Swing.
Hell , Jodeci is DeVante Swing tf? Ain’t no Jodeci without him.
K-CI and JoJo sounded so good during this performance 😩💙 #Jodeci4Life
Absolutely amazing vocals....the best R&B singing group of the 90's hands down!!
twenty five years later it still touch me ...now i have a awesome son who is a great man.
Undeniably & without question one of the best live performances of a instant classic legendary hit song that's ever been recorded & performed live on stage period. Jodeci was handling their business behind the mic's on this track no doubt!!!!!!!!!! True heavyweights of r&b soul music💪😎💪
Jojo's voice is very unique ! All of them but really heard him here
Exactly, that's what was distinct...VERY sharp his voice was
@Domo Jones Black Girl Lost is classic. Nas ft Jojo

1990
Kent Clark yes u could feel it in your own love life true meaning and feelings this music now a day's shaking my head where is the love it's just pure sex smh
You missed it then. A damn baby when Jodeci was hot lol

Great comparison

They were a soul POWERHOUSE ✊🏾
I love me some Jodeci😘😘😘😘😘
Who rocked jodeci boots back in the day tho? 😍

You go jojo!!!!!!
Thumbs up if this makes u feel they way u felt in the 90's. Indescribable stuff!!
Song has a new meaning to me now that Kim is Gone 😢😢😢 #Restqueen
Lor Ray ALB Sure wrote this song for Kim Porter. She passed away about a 1 year ago
So grateful I grew up on this. Timeless talent.
Same!
You go boys...
Maurice Payne ?

All. The. Way. Off.!!!
Kci was looking so fine singing Lord 😩😩😩
Oh yesssss
K ci the vocal beast!!!
Kci was a character so animated gotta luv him 😂
When live performance were really live
Watching 2016👌🏽
K-Ci and Jojo have 2 of the greatest voices of all time🤷🏾♂️ #faxnoprinter
Yes!!! I’ll also Include Joe, Stokley from Mint Condition, Jesse Powell (rip), Glenn Jones, Tevin Campbell, Donell Jones, Luther Vandross, Johnny Gill and I’m sure I’m missing a few but that’s who I can think of from the top of my head from that era.
I watch this faithfully just to hear JoJo hit that note
Rest In Peace Kim Porter ❤️❤️
🕊️
Those who know, know.
The coldest harmony in the game !
It's 2024 and I STILL love this amazingly iconic song!.Go K-Ci, JoJo and Jodeci! 😘🥰❤️❤️❤️
Jodeci sure knows how to put on a show! This was the time when R&B and hip hop songs had purpose, none of that autotuned bullcrap you hear on the radio nowadays. I just noticed Dalvin repping my hometown of New Orleans with the Saints cap on, he still looks good. VH1 betta make sure the biopic is done right!
K-ci sangggged his butt off mannnn I wish I was their for this performance I loveeeee Jodeci especially K-CI ❤
The mics was definitely on and they sounded so good but Jo Jo’s voice I can listen to him sing all day and the baby yeah’s was dope
this sound great 4:21high note
I love!!! Jodeci. You can hear the gospel in KC voice all day long.
They never won a Grammy SMH...Jodeci is iconic
Yea the industry was low key jealous of Jodeci because they wee fucking untouchable and has a different atmospheric new sound
What!!! That's crazy.
Kc and jojo what a dúo stong vocals they compliment each other
Simply the GREATEST R&B GROUP EVER...THESE GUYS GAVE ME GOOSEBUMPS AS A KID,I WAS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD WHEN THIS CAME OUT❗
I’m so glad I grew up listening and singing these songs…Many have tried but there’s only on Jodeci
I taped this when I was in high school using a VHS and watched ALL through my adulthood. I know every word, every ad lib. Watching it today, I can see how he and Fantasia are cousins they literally leave EVERYTHING on that stage!! They Drain themselves and I used to be so obsessed with Jodeci but really with their live shows!! So much talent!!
Facts
I see no lies!
Skills!!!!! They don’t need tech help! Those vocals 💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
K-Ci kilt it @1:01
This is what the sound of quartet gospel sounds like!!!!
This is really an iconic performance!! Their vocals was so pure and the way they harmonize was amazing
I love Jo Jo
Yessss lawd! They betta sang!
Boyz ll Men/Jodeci forever!!!
Samora Rolle don't forget Mint Condition. True artists. Bring back the classy
Gamequeen P love Mint Condition but they aren't an R&B group per say, they're more of a band like Earth, Wind and Fire/ Maze & Frankie Beverly.
Dru hill anyone?
AND New Edition:)❤❤❤❤❤
Dru hill, h-town, silk, shai, and new edition. All them was killing it.
Damn kci, so much energy in his voice
I can always feel the presence of this performance whenever I watch this particular video 💕😭😭😍...feels like I'm really there
Amazing
The best.
Energy like no other!!!!
Vocals could not be any better still have so much love for them ! Beautiful
Y'all sleep on jojo vocals though!
not me! i love his voice
And I hate that ishhh
He’s vocals are so soothing
Listen to the way he sang that part and it sounded like the album version at the end. He is just phenomenal.
Not at all JoJo had a beautiful voice and he still does
I wish I was in that audience. 😭😭😭😭😭😭 I love Jodeci.
Best vocalist hands down kci is the fire
I had that same stupid outfit back in the day, massive hooped earrings, red lipstick, a pierced nose & finger waves all upside my head 😂 oh the memories. I looked good tho, yeah the 90s were lit.
This is Real singing 💯💯💯 I miss the 90’s 😪
A greatest of all!!!! What voices, stage presence! SOULFUL!!!!! 4-28-2020 Watch all their videos over and over.
They had no business singing that song like that. Jojo had no business hitting them notes like that ❤.
Them brothers getting down though there. Love listening to good voices.
Dru Hill was birthed by these guys.
I LOVE THEM. Best song ever!!
Lane of they own🔥🔥
