Thank you and what they don’t understand is Casey says if it wasn’t for Devante, there would be no jodeci💯 they are two very talented young men well grown men now, but you know what I mean. I don’t get it twisted Dalvin and Devante may not seem like KC and JoJo but they can hold their own a real fan would know that.
😂The fact that they must not be real Jodeci fans to think that they need to listen harder and listen to their acappella you can hear dalvin and Devante voice and plus Dalvin can actually sing but he just raps in the Jodeci music and Devante swing he definitely have good vocals as well especially on Gin & Juice ft Static Major
listen at K-Ci hitting that falsetto at 1:14 - 1:18 it's crazy how good his range was. He don't get enough credit of how much of a great singer he was, smh. Easily one of the best male voices PERIOD, y'all need to put some respect on his name.
It was the tightest harmony ever... It is because they only sang on two whole cords. K-Ci and JoJo on whole cords and Dalvin and Devante were on half cords. It creates a very tight harmony and it is very hard to do.
Dalvin and Devante can carry a tune...and it helps that they are musically inclined because they can pick the subtle notes that make the harmony round itself out...listenin to this i can hear them both and they sound fine...Jodeci was a dope as group though...Drugs and Alcohol though...smh
@nellek970 Actually, Dalvin and Devante are REALLY talented. They composed the songs, arranged them, came up with the harmonies, and play the instruments (listen to Come and Talk To Me, the remix, for a sample of Devante's piano, and listen to the beginning of Feenin' for Dalvin's drum solo). Also, listen to them sing acapella, and you'll see how their voices perfectly complement KCi and Jojo's. I used to think that they did nothing, too, but they are crucial to the group.
That part 💯 that's what back ground singers I supposed to do make everything harmonize everyone has a part in a group that's why JODECI is so tight 😘💖💋
When I saw them at MSG in 92, Devante got on keys while Dalvin got on drums for U and I and later a cover medley of Where Will You Go (Babyface), Piece Of My Love + Goodbye Love (both by Guy) a Can You Stand The Rain (New Edition)
For intance Jodeci's real tight harmony comes from K-Ci and Jo-Jo singing 1st tenor and 2nd tenor. Those are the two main scales or chords that you hear... they are prominate Devante would sing on a note between Jo-Jo's note and K-Ci's note. Then Dalvin would sing on the chord that is a half a note lower than K-Ci's. Thus creating the tight harmony.
@@ertfgghhhh that is correct. This is what was suspected with them and half notes but speaking to someone that worked with them on the Diary of a Mad Band project confirmed that. Listening to the tightness of their harmony that is the only way to come up with that sound.
@@BigWelt are they singibg 13th and 11th chords instead of major chords? Is devante singing the base note Kci 1 Jojo 3 Dalvin 2 Am i right? If not, plz explain
They didn't get much credit because uptown didn't promote they're 2nd album like the 1st all of Jodeci's albums were different from each other they really evolved Boyz 2 men albums all sounded the same.
they all sounded the same..right-I could never get into boys 2men music-I always turned when they were on tv. that dum "at the end of the road" my God was so dum and slow..I hated it. it was sicking. white groups took them out with those clean suits all the time. and when they wore jeans they didn't look SEXY like JODECI in their clothes. JODECI had all that females wanted in a young male group.
Patricia Roberts Boyz II Men music was cool they followed the Motown tradition that was the difference between them and jodeci followed the voices not the way they dressed
@nellek970 And it's actually a mark of their harmony, and giftedness, that you can't really "hear" Dalvin and Devante--their voices blend so well with KCi and Jojo's.
@lightmajor1 yeah... it is extremely hard to do but it sounds wonderful. Devante was a genius of creating music and vocal arrangements. His ear for music was outstanding.
Lol they made a deal DeVante wanted K-CI in and JoJo wanted Mr Dalvin in.But DeVante didn't want Dalvin in cause would have all the girls from De and JoJo didn't want K-CI in cause he already had his shine singing with Cedric and The Hailey Singers..crazy how things worked out for the better glad they allowed they're bros to join the group.History was made after that...Jodeci4Life
you can tell this is earlier in their 1st album and career because i never seen them dress like that. This was probably doing that lil show to just to get their name out.
@@lyricwilson866 First of all, I'm a man and Dalvin & DeVante aren't vocalists... They'll tell you themselves, that's why the Hailey Brothers did all the leads and background vocals.. You're tone deaf!!!
@@HgrGar Seem like someone doesnt know they history on jodeci .... Do your research fr .. Dalvin & DeVante can sing have you heard their 4th album? Must havent ... They do background vocals alot
+Knight B al b sure did not write the song he wrote so your having my baby line.Forever my lady was a interlude before they got signed to uptown the label made them turn it into a song Devante cowrote it with Al b These are Mr Dalvin words.
Some of yall are deaf lol. JODECI WAS HUMMING!!!! everyone in the band could sing. JOJO AND KC could BLOW though. its a difference. just like now. Trey songz can sing, Tank can blow. its a difference.

people's comments on the DeGrate Bros are cracking me up. Every member isn't a lead singer but can sing. Every one played their role.
exactly. I couldn't see Devante singing like K.C.
@@standardweeb4791 so he sung background

Arguably one of the best R&B groups ever they dont get much credit
Agree
no argument here fam

Thats not falsetto, thats full voice high tenor. Jojo hits falsetto on "forever and everrrrr", but K-ci's high notes were impressive back then.
No, we all know how great a singer K-Ci is. He’s in my all time top 3x
DeVanté was the third voice that came in 😮
Yup you’re right . Hood ear
Good
Crazy How they're outfits would be fresh today
I was really thinking that lol
juicyfruit818 New school copies the old school
Your so right and They were so ahead of their time
Jones206 fashion hasnt changed that much since the late 80s
they’re trendsetters lol

I thank God everyday that he gave us Jodeci, I honestly would be depress if they never existed.
Just prayed about it last night 💞

Right, go and listen to Stay ( acapella) you'll hear DeVante singing a bass note!

They all are super talented! A dope all time group! Lead vocals and harmonies are always on point!

DeVante is baritone

@@mrelove72 yeah but he is a very capable tenor. Look at the Jodeci documentary when him and Jojo sings My Heart belongs to you acapella.
@@BigWelt are they singibg 13th and 11th chords instead of major chords?
Is devante singing the base note
Kci 1
Jojo 3
Dalvin 2
Am i right? If not, plz explain
Jojo with the church clap 👏🏾 at the beginning
I think this is the original version Devante did before they got signed
Thefabanista i think your right because al b sure helped write the final version
IncognitoDrea before Al came and help write the verses
Al B. Sure! Wrote the lyrics to Forever My Lady
@@MrDeeboi33 no devanté did , al b sure COWROTE it
@@MrDeeboi33 no tf he didn’t

Damn K-Ci with all that range!!
they definately blend together love yield !
@BigWelt wow it's crazy that there is an actual reason why their harmonies sounded so different, and so much BETTER than other r and b groups...
Oh my God....I remember this! I feel like I have stepped back into my childhood.
Just saw these gentlemen in concert 2 days with Dru Hill and SWV. Amazing
Like this version better
check out this video. (Jodeci Docugroove Part 2 of 5) They're all geniuses. Devante especially. This should help you out.
jodeci the king of r and b group forever jodeci
devante look so good in da blue
That k-ci
this is the original before al b sure helped write the album version with devante
They was smashing the RnB but Still didn't get a Grammy, but Boyz to men did everyone was loving jodeci more than Boyz to men
😭🤣🤣 the dudes in the audience sitting back hating
RIGHT SO BITTER N JEALOUS 😭😭
their blog voice blend is amazing
That was so cute
K-Ci damn sho could sang...and damn sho looked like a Dave Chapelle character
Lmfao that damn K-Ci!
And my man Dalvin yes k-ci
The crazy part is K Ci wasnt wanted by jojo to be in the group...
Lol they made a deal DeVante wanted K-CI in and JoJo wanted Mr Dalvin in.But DeVante didn't want Dalvin in cause would have all the girls from De and JoJo didn't want K-CI in cause he already had his shine singing with Cedric and The Hailey Singers..crazy how things worked out for the better glad they allowed they're bros to join the group.History was made after that...Jodeci4Life

@@J53320comin’ w/ the facts! love to see it, lol. ❤

you can tell this is earlier in their 1st album and career because i never seen them dress like that. This was probably doing that lil show to just to get their name out.
Most likely around their first album.
They dressed like this a lot when they first got in the game, do your research.
Love it...
I loved it!
this mix need and official extension. I will look to see if that was already done
Knight B there is a forever my lady remix...i honestly think it's better than the original lol
This isn’t the remix, this is actually the interlude before it was turned into a full song.
@dimpleslovesya he aint even wearing blue...that kci lol
What show was this there was alot of teens
justchillin57 "teen summit" on BET. Pre 106park
Devante & Dalvin aren't vocalists, but Devante was a hell of a producer/songwriter/composer/arranger.

He probably means something else because I thought the same thing lol "Half Chord" is a non existent term.
I’m not used to seeing them wearing bright colors. They look kinda boys to mannish here
@267600716
Lmao kCi worst than sisqo
They honestly don't have good harmony at all. But that doesn't take away from the fact that they made good music
Go look at them singing this exact song acapella on their video soul interview and come back with a better opinion
