May sound wild but I always wanted to see this man win!
Directed By Yoda why would it sound wild bro! It’s normal to want to see others succeed! #salute
He gets the ‘smaller’ wins. And the smarter wins in the long run. he seem like he’s in a good place
Who said he wasnt?
Me too and I love this guys music.
Not wild at all.
Growing up Jason was like that cooler older brother you looked up to, Him and omar always had me laughing on smart guy.
Yeah that was a good show!
I just binged watched it on Disney plus. So funny!
I loved Smart Guy
I've watched it atleast 3 times over. its so hilarious. a top 10 for me.
Basically he wasn't a sellout.
M. Cole the best comment hands down
Yeah that's the funny thing I don't think any of us can disagree with that comment
Jarrel Ely to compare Jason Weaver with Jaime Foxx is silly and ludicrous.
Jason's performance in Chingy's One Call Away was really fantastic. I would love to see J. Weav making music as a solo act. :)
@YaMomz Plumber Lol out of all things you could make a joke about....first thing to come to your mind was about a man putting a thumb into another mans butt...LOL i feel weird as hell even typing those words but here you are conciously "joking" about it...truth hidden in plain sight i guess
Jason is that brother you always want to see win because you know he’s a good person. He’s lived a life, and he’s passed down knowledge.we can all learn so much from him.
Love this guy. His voice does not age.
That's how I recognize him, be his voice.
How he going to sound tuff with this voice?
Love his voice! 😝
Yup
Yesss very distinguishable and God Gifted 🎉
Love his energy, dude always seemed genuine af
His voice is literally the same! That’s crazy!
His character on Thea lol lol as Jerome wen I 1st saw him is the cousin in my life 70s Shawn lol lol all dam day a never ending story of shawn n the st Thomas project 1970s new orleans la I love the character Jerome on thea I was just watching last week him an brandi on thea
Right, he sounds good
I call that the Stevie wonder affect lol
Ikr
He Basically Saying He didn’t let the label control him how they are currently controlling the worlds favorite artists
They are currently controlling the favorite artists? Umm... Always happened
Bingo!
i really wish this dude would make some more music people be sleeping on him
Jason and Tevin are one take in the studio!!
Good observation! Never realized till now ❤
Jason Weaver is a whole legend. I’ve always loved and appreciated his work.
'Love Ambition' is the shit JW. Been a fan since day 1. Sending u a Windy City shout out. Stay blessed
@YaMomz Plumber
That's deep. Duly noted
@YaMomz Plumber Bruh...What?
Facts chicago classic
I still got love ambition on my playlist right now. If you a 84' baby you know this guy was our young Michael Jackson growing up. Stop playing. Love this song till this day
83' baby/Georgia girl and yes we all loved/love Jason Weaver 💚
@@nafeesahameen2869 yes indeed maam

I'm from Brooklyn and I love it
😂😂😂, Mannnn they play that everyone is up doing something
Just Lue if I ever see your fine ass at one of the spots you gone step with me!
In Indianpolis, Indiana as well. That album was🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lamont Stokes naw it don’t count for y’all bro only Chicago.
YES, WE here in Chicago LOVE Love Ambition. Especially the steppers. My parents put me on when I was a kid..lol
Yes ChiTown stand up
You're beautiful
Andrea J. Most definitely!!!
Great stepper cut
Absolutely! My dad put me on, love that song
He sounds very respectful and grounded for a celebrity. You dont see that too often
He mentioned the black godfather clarence avant... Peep his doc on netflix
Rich Hunt great documentary...powerful man in the business
He got a doc on Netflix?! Tf
@@voomaldor ummmm short for documentary... for all the slow people
@@unclevape2170 ugh I know that. I haven't seen it pop up. Is what is was stating
Saw it a couple days ago. He was a cursing, cold hard, crusader of truth! 😂 I loved him
Love Ambition is still one of my favorite songs ❤️
Mine too!!!
Mine too! ❤❤❤
Tevin , Jason & Usher paved the way .
True
Man I love Jason... Grew up watching him and I'm glad he's still out here working! Blessings!🙏🏾🖤
He still looks mad young for sure!!☝🏽I still like watching him in movies 🎥....
Need business to promote the craft but business get in the way of the craft...
Racism gets on the way of business. Yeah sure we'll help but you can't do this and you can't say that and we want your SOUL.
@Uno Jones Business is even harder when you go solo. Unless you a veteran you easy money.
Love Ambition was it! Got my first girlfriend back in elementary off that song lol. Very smooth song.
As much as I would of love to hear more of Jason's music, I am glad he didn't fall into the cracks into the music industry. With the money he was and still receiving from The Lion King, the dude is set for life! Plus I am pretty sure he is behind the scenes in music and the camera the dude was and is smart!
He seems like such a humble person. I wish him all the best! Very talented brotha.
Johnny Gill speaks exactly on the Management change after his 1st Lp at Motown (TvOne Unsung ep) after Busby left.... HE HATED IT
Man, these interviews are great. Keep going! Shouts out to Jason Weaver for being solid. 💯
The album is an absolute CLASSIC!!!!!!
I loved Jason Weaver's music no doubt about it.. always will be a special part of my adolescence and young adulthood..
I love "love ambition" and "i can't stand it"
I've loved Jason since he first came out. I have two copies of the cd Love Ambition (my original one was scratched, so someone replaced it for me). I wish I could have the pleasure to meet Jason, I love him so much. I'm glad that he didn't sellout in the music industry, but I would definitely love another album from him. Love Ambition is an album that you can put on and not have to skip any songs. I love you Jason.
Nice! I thought all the Jason Weaver was done! My fav joint from JWeave was "I dont know why". He performed it on the Smart Guy but i dont think he released on an album, it was probally just a single.
Nick Lee man i thought i was the only one who knew that shit lol. That that’s shit
Love ambition the s*** is a steppers classic they do not just play it to take you home or to get your ass out of the club they play it in the Dance Floor gets packed trust me I know one of CHI-Town's finest when it comes to stepping.
indeed ChiTown stand up
Flintstone🙋🏿♀️💞
@@youmakemelaugh1797 Aaaaayee
lloyd johnson you ain't never lied. Dance floor goes up when they play that.
Exactly...that's the cut STILL!!
He has a song “I Never Thought” that is one of my favorite songs ever.
I remember that!! I still look for that song lol...my space dayz!!! And stay with me was my jam to lol
An no pain remix
'Love Ambition' has been in heavy rotation in my house since I was a kid. I was his audience.
Being from Chi he hit the nail on the head and spoke the truth because we all knew of his acting and musical talent. He was way ahead of his years far as his talent. Fucked up that the music industry does this to artists. So many great talents have been lost because the industry does not choose to let an artist dictate where they, thr artist, chooses to have their musical careers go. It's a shame. It is why I chose to never go mainstream with my own talents. It really is run by snakes and evil men.
Jason Weaver one of my musical influences believe it or not … Brody was HIGHKEY slept on
I think some of Usher and Tevin’s early songs were too grown too. I remember one line I want to do you after school like some homework.
break it on down!
Lol my lil young ass was like oooooo
Who said that ???
Rrrrright. Can You Get Wit' It was waaay to grown! -Usher
They said they had that issue with usher too until he got with JD and them
They should have changed it to I wanna be with you after school
My father used to bump his music faithfully with his radio thru the neighborhood
If the sound is not too dated he should rerecord it. His voice is matured now.
He still got that cute baby voice
I had the cassette of Love Ambition. I've loved him since The Jacksons miniseries.
106 Jams? Jesus Christ I forgot all about that station🤯
Love Ambition song was and still is the Sugar Honey Iced Tea! Jason Weaver,Thank you!
Jason Weaver also sang the hook to Chingy's song ”One call away”! Facts 💯
0:19 No *Love Ambition* is a Classic R&B song PERIOD! Listen to it if you haven't.
We play Love Ambition in Chicago at the rink. Still one of my favorites!!
We would have loved/will love music from you! Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with us. We will never forget you! 💯
I have always, always, always LOVED Love Ambition... I hear and still melt. It is going to be my wedding song Jason!!!!
Love Ambition was a solid album -- MOTOWN was just the WRONG label to market him as an artist at the time (The Good Girls , The boys, ..ect ) = All Great acts - that should hav had LONGEVITY - but Motown didnt know how to market their younger artist AND I MADE THIS COMMENT RIGHT B4 HE SAID .....WOW
The same thing happened to Shanice, she came out as the sweet, girl next door and then the second album, they grew her up and sexed her up....damn Motown
@@ParentalDiscretionIsAdvised 2 bad there wasnt a Biv 10 records or So so Def yet
DJ ALLDAY he had to be so slighted and disenchanted by the music industry as whole, he could’ve still worked for those labels, mainly Biv10 due it being connected to Motown (i think, dont take my word for that). Or simply acting was just popping more. Out of anything, him doing that record with Chingy, THAT was the time for him to strike with the iron being hot!
@EenieMeanieMightyJoeYoung you can't blame him for not wanting to strike while the iron was hot. The music industry had already left a bad taste in his mouth. Speaking of One Call Away, Capitol records didn't even want him on the song. You see they don't even put his name on the song half the time.
I am from Chicago born and raised I was loving these songs back in the day, I always loved love ambition, it just spoke to me and I would love it if Jason would bring his brand of music back to the city and create a whole new fan base young and old.
Yep! Love Ambitions is a stepping song in Chicago! Everyone tries to step when that play!! 😂😂😂
Love Ambition goes hard in the skating rink too!!! Chicago loves you Jason!!!!
Sooooo True!!! I'm from Chicago and Love Ambition is Def. a "last call" "last song" closer!!!!😂😂
I still listen to love ambition. And the chicago radio station still plays it from time to time♥️🔥
I loved your music and I love “Stay With Me” 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
I'll forever love Jason's voice. #YoungSimba
It's a classic EVERYWHERE! try listening to it with the BASS. TRUNKIN!
I still play Love Ambition & Can't Stand the Pain...... 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥like it's in a regular rotation of mines
I am from Chicago and LOVE AMBITION IS MY JAM!!!
Jason Weaver has a beautiful singing voice, like omg❤ his first album is beautiful, every song on there is 🔥 he truly is a LEGEND, he can saaaaang🥰🥰🥰
"Love Ambition" will always be one of my fave cuts of All Time. Jason Weaver is so talented & handsome
I had a huge crush on him and fedro starr from moesha mane growing up both talented and handsome!
@@shaggyajao5685 He did play on 'Moesha'. But he's actually a rapper in the group Onyx. I definitely luv'd me some Fredro Starr!! Brandy had ALL the 90s hotties on 'Moesha'
Rahsaan Patterson is the neo soul man.
Ikr... God forbid it but if stokely from mint condition juz so happen 2 die 2day they could plug him right n & u wouldn't tell da difference.
#AllMyMoneyTheyWouldnt
nakia murrell he’s written a lot of records for artists
Rahsaan Patterson is the truth and I have every album he has released including the new one. People are still sleep on him and he has been in the game since the early 90's.
@@djbhe Yesssssssss💞
@@DreMurrz man I misread your post and got scared lmao.
Love & best wishes for health and happiness to Jason. One talented brother.
DAM -- I finally got my answer on his solo music career all these yrs later... I was a 100% supporter of J-Weave's music - I HATE IT WAS SHORTEN the way it was - Definitely UNSUNG
“Love Ambition” is a Chicago favorite!!! Classic steppers cut...love that song.
Man. The talent this guy had was something that I was phenomenal even from when he was young. He starred in movies at a young age, singing at a young age and even could even be a comedian if he wanted to!
I just rewatched a few episodes of Thea. This dude was hilarious on that show
Love ambition is still 🔥🔥 til this day
"Stay With Me" was my song!
Do yall put out the full interview or is this how yall rockin' wit it? either way good 💩
Mane bruh really a young legend in my eyes fr. From Smart Guy to ATL, respect ✊🏾
Skin routine please 💅🏾💜
Love Ambition is A Classic all over the world 💪🏾
I'm mad that stay with me album never dropped
I wuz a teen/preteen back then. & love ambition wuz definitely a hit. So 4 me... it wuz Jason Weaver, Usher & Tevin that were making waves back then. I still hold Jason in that esteem. Would've loved 2 hear more from him as a solo artist. & he's just as great of an actor 2 me. I respect his authenticity 4sho.
Yeah man! "Love ambition" is hard!
Yassss! I love Steppin to Love Ambition! ❤️
It would be nice to hear the brother sing again
I still play Love ambition and I can't stand the pain. Yep.
Damn boy! Yo voice never broke... We need to hear from you bruh.
Makes me wanna pull up "love ambition" and get my two step on.
His mom made sure nobody took advantage of her son because she knew about the industry, since she worked in it.
Exactly
Jason has a very great spirit bruh. I can’t explain it but I’m rockin with him till the end
Chile... Love Ambition was my album and I was in middle school at the time living in Miami. The album is still one of my favorites! I would bump it from beginning to end even still til this day. I loved Stay With Me too...
I absolutely LOVE Love Ambition!
That love ambition is still a nice groove.

Can’t get no more real then that. As a fan you always wonder how things are in the industry,It’s a pleasure just to know what goes on behind the scenes. Thanks for the post.
New Orleans radio station wears that song out and we never get tired of hearing love ambition.
