- One fourth of the legendary group Jodeci, Mr. Dalvin sat down with DJ Vlad for an exclusive interview. In this clip, Mr. Dalvin and Vlad address the rumors floating around that Dalvin was the inspiration behind one of TLC's more popular hits, Creep. The legendary artist goes on to discuss a more somber event, going into detail of when a member of Jodeci was robbed and pistol whipped. Watch above.
People say that this incident changed him. A traumatic event like that would change anyone.

pellis1981 He NEVER gets his credit for being a genius. He's been through so much. I hope they do the Jodeci biopic right..
That is soo terrible Devante didn't deserve that shit!!! He was soo talented!!!
Well devante use to beat on Ginuwine, missy elliott, & Timbaland when they were on his label Da Bassment...

Dalvin still fine as hell!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍Mann.. it’s just an blessing✊🏽 To know all of Jodeci has so much of talent. Being my babies since the 90’s even during present day.2k17 I’m so happy to see they are together.
Love Devante still! I was a child when that happened and I cried. My dad thought it was funny. He was just jealous of devante’s success. Devante is still to this day one of the most handsome and talented men, e v e r
I hate obsessed as fans like u ;
@@HowieKrakk we not obsessed we are just fans that enjoy there music and devante was easy on the eyes so of course a lot of girls/women loved him
@@adoremya4479 your fan who disrespected their father ; to cosign a artist who gives 2 fucks about u
@@HowieKrakk So she can’t speak the truth because he’s her dad???
@@Jay-yh3yy so it’s right to disrespect your parents when your speaking on a situation that has nothing to do with them , ok he’s talented but u don’t have disrespect your parents for it , he was also a asshole and used to put his hands on his artist , women and men ; so is he still the greatest person in the world ? Cause if he is then ike turner deserves a statue
The production on Alone was always one of my Devante favorites
I was just thinking about Jodeci and now I find a Mr. Dalvin interview. Devante was talented, always wondered what happened to him. Great song writer.
Nothing happened to Devante. He don’t do interviews he always in the studio doing work. Devante was never the talker in Jodeci in public that was Mr Dalvin and K-Ci. Devante keeps to himself he always been like that. Don’t talk to him unless you wanna hear some real shit D don’t hold back. I don’t know them but just from watching them throughout the years I know lol.Devante was different always.Mr Dalvin had all the ladies back in the day. D was to himself and about his music lol. Devante daughters look just like him. His older daughter tatted up like him.
2288bigman he has daughters, i thought a Son , he was a ladykiller also 😂
deborah groenhart Yea he got a son. But Everybody says Mr Dalvin got more women than Devante. Everyone in the group says Dalvin since they were kids was the ladies name. Dude can dress his ass off no homo.
balls_down_ya_throat True , he got taste for Sure, he can dress , good looking , but do you know if Devante is married ?
talented but a very nasty person
His skin is so beautiful!!!
Why y'all always mad when he mention tupac, I enjoy it love hearing untold stories bout tha dude
Devante SWING in my KCi voice .. that nigga was dope
Everybody wanted Mr. Dalvin and Devante Swing in the 90's. I still have my picture with Mr. Dalvin from 1998, with his sexy self. He still looks good for 48, and he still have that head full of pretty hair like he did in the 90's. Why is the interviewer asking about K-Ci and Mary J relationship, ask Mr. Dalvin about him and T-Boz relationship that's what I want to know about.
He gives me Carl Thomas
Yes he does!
Its the toupe
Kim Carwell yeah he do look like him😑
Yeah
Kim Carwell yes
I can tell vlad sincerely loved Tupac cause he always mention him in every interview 💯
Shenyae Turner sounds like hes trying to say what people want to hear. Everyone loves tupac so hes not doing anything special
columbusohio72 Stop hating smfh
Shenyae Turner i think hes tryna crack the case as to who killed 2pac
Rich Dizzyy yeah
@@columbusohio72 Pac has done a lot for his amazing hard work
I still love Jodeci; I think I always will. Jodeci should be in the RocknRoll Hall of Fame - Everybody’s Mom loved Jodeci too.
I think they are now
Ooo no wonder that's explains every thing why devante started acting crazy
Devante always been different. He was rebellious and got kicked out at a early age. He lived with kci and JoJo before they became a group. He said him and Dalvin smoked weed and had guns. Remember preacher kids are the worst correct? They’re parents are very regilious. D said women wouldn’t talk to him and thought he was weird but he knew he wanted to be famous so he went to audition for prince and got denyed. So that inspired him To create the forever my lady album. Dude is talented can play all types of instruments and produced and write and arrange songs. Yes getting robbed changed him who wouldn’t ? Both of his daughters look just like him.
AJ Lucas right 😔😔
2288bigman I was on his daughter page on IG and I was brought here... his daughter don’t look nothing like him at all.
Latasha Jacobs Well that’s your personal opinion. I think she look just like him.
Blocked ! Yea Devante was the weird one in Jodeci. Jojo was just camera shy. But behind the scenes Jojo was funny as hell. Devante didn’t talk because he said he only speaks the real. Why would Devante hog the spotlight when he does most of the music ? That’s why in interviews Mr Dalvin and Kci talks the most. Devante said women thought he was weird and he also said he only had one girlfriend growing up.
If he did bite one of the dude's fingers off then he held it down very well before they got the better of him.
Jodeci just dropped an album in 2015 and it wasn't half bad not gonna lie lol
YoYoRamon I loved it! They still got it 💙
I liked dat album 2... 💯
It was 💣
I did not know that. Need to go find it.
Poor Devante, they even did it on his birthday 😔
Wot N' Tarnation it was on Dalvins birthday
Reggie Noble oops
Fat Vegan they twins 💀
nini. No they are not 🥴 devante was born on September 29th, 1969. Dalvin was born on July 23rd, 1971. A google search would’ve told you that 💀
@@nini.4988 not dat I agree with you, but she went to google to make sure before she commented.
They bit one of the fingers off and they didn't get DNA evidence? These stories just dont be adding up. People leave items at the crime scene but dude left a FINGER at the crime scene and they still dont know who did it. You got FINGER PRINTS and DNA.
urbanflavorz i thought he said one died and one was locked up
The thumbprint has to be in the criminal database first
If that's the case we know some higher echelons did it. Not your regular crime. Facts
😂😂😂😂 you know some people just be saying shit ..if somebody got a finger bit off you know damn well they got his DNA ... BUT IF THEY RAPPED HIM THATS FUCKED UP ... HE IS NOT THE SAME ...I FEEL BAD FOR HIM..☹️
You know it be illumanti affiliated
He tries to find out bout incidents more from other ppl that be blowing me🤣🤣
Why the hell is he asking about Kci’s realtionship?!-
I don't know how they would do a biopic, they don't really tell a lot of details when they give interviews lol
chocchipcoffeecake JODECI HAS SUM INTERESTING STORY BESIDES NEW EDITION...K CI AND JOJO WERE IN A PROFESSIONAL GOSPEL QUARTET AND HOW THEY TRASITIONED TO SECULAR MUSIC
There's a lot they don't want to tell, discuss, repeat or let out. They went through some seriously horrific times that most people do not know about.
@@msohsosolo that explains the drugs
@cbon88
Exactly...👈🏾
This is so sad....This guy is the best💯%....I met him in London I believe it was between 2006 - 2009...and I've never met a nicer person...after they performed in Wembley my friends and i found out that they were to be at the hotel in the foyer...we thought the info we got wasn't real but we still went along ONLY TO FIND them chilling and talking to ppl there....I was shocked but happy. When my sister and i saw devante we offered to buy him a drink and he was TOTALLY SHOCKED (I guess he was used to young girls asking him for drinks) and after looking stunned for a while he said only if you want too.....he only made us buy him ONE drink and he was so humble with it....after standing with us and talking for a while he went and walk around alittle.....then he came back to where we were (always accompanied with his assistant and friend)and I asked him if he was looking for any new talent and could i sing for him and he said sure hes always looking for new talent....we went over to where the sofa was(my sister, best friend, devante, his assistant and I) and then i sang for him....and I'll never forget those words he said after i sang which was "give this girl my number right now" I thought i was dreaming lol....after that he chilled with us on the sofa and we spoke for about 1hr....about life and all sorts....we all spoke like when you speak to your siblings...even though in my head I was screaming (devante is really talking to us lol) anyways after, he said he was going back to his hotel room so we said it was nice meeting him and was just about to leave...then I asked him when should I call and he said he was leaving for America the next day so he would be back in the studio around Wednesday which was three days away...I said OK I will call him then we went home. Wednesday came and I went to call his phone and his assistant answered, I said can I speak to devante and she said 1min....he came on the phone and I was like hi devante I don't think you will remember me but....(and before I could finish he was like) yes I remember that voice your _ _ _ _ _😮 I was shocked😮, I was like wow you remembered my name😊 and he was like "of course how could I forget a voice like that "🤗 anyways long story short we planned that he would bring me over to America and have me in the studio.....but being the clumsy CLUMSY girl I am, I lost his number😕😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭....but best experience EVER....THANKS DEVANTE for just being who you are....A REAL GENUINE NICE GENTLEMEN 😊
You basically saying you had the chance of Devante producing you and you lost the chance?and even say It out loud? Id be so embarrassed and told nobody tbh lmao and hit my head against a wall every night.
@@FedeRhodes lol I hear you, but no I'm not embarrassed....What GOD has for me, it is for me. Just having the opportunity to talk to him like a friend is good enough...I'm happy I have that memories.
Devante was an original OG savage Chris Brown is fraudin
HankBlockOG lol yea
HankBlockOG Chris Brown is the best entertanier of is generation We should be grateful to have a gift from god like him
Trill Withers Who the hell are you to Tell what to do? Bye ( I dont talk with crazy People)
Chris Brown stole his whole swag from Devante and Ginuwine. That's been obvious to me ever since he debuted in the music industry.
@@anasofiasemedo8431 no he is not cant sing worth shit been his concerts and all
Vlad will interview 1 person but all questions be about someone else
T boz said that song was about an unfaithful guy. In a relationship dalvin was a playa in his day he did cheat. That s why t boz left him.
Yea I heard so too
Heard they are great friends up to this day and that they still love each other
Yeah I believe they are friends. There s a pic they took together about 5 years ago. Another rumor is that when t boz and delving dated that was around the time Mary j and k ci dated. The word was k ci would beat her up regularly when they split Mary j told t boz thAt Jodeci personally we re losers starting fights and beating woman. It was another reason why she left delvin
@@michaelbull4344 where did you get this information from just asking :)
@@spaghetti6711 t boz autobiography
Omg where he been at? I miss him devante
RereC on Steve j show
why is he being asked about K-Ci & Mary’s business? that has nothing to go with him . 2:30
Man I use to have a MAD crush on this dude
This is my baby and the fact that he's not messy... let's go baby!!
Vlad always asking about other ppl personal issues lol Dalvin like “you gonna ask me about me? orrr..”
I love me some Tupac ❤️
Shawn P. You mad? lol
Shenyae Turner so do I.
We need that Jodeci movie ASAP BigScreen action
Omg I loved him Mr Dalvin was the finest ❤❤❤
Both of them was fine pretty boys 😍
That incident made DeVante paranoid,it didn’t change him into a villain.......DeVante changed once he started being around suge and started seeing how suge handled ppl “in-house”,ex;Vanilla Ice......but Swing never put his hands on anyone besides ginuwine,because he caught ginuwine in bed with a dude in a hotel room.....but the story Stevie j & timbaland has out there about Swing slappin up missy and the whole basement crew is false,just go ask leshawn....she’ll tell you
Where can I find her interview?
Google her interview with “youknowigotsoul”......I’m friends with her on ig,I asked her abt that whole history with them being around DeVante.....she gave me a lot of info........I’m sorry abt that,but it was actually susie “Susan weems” who stated that DeVante never laid a hand on them but it was his cousins....I’m also friends with her on ig as well......Susie doesn’t mind answering questions about jodeci but leshawn gets tired of ppl coming to her asking asking questions about other ppl besides her
So why beat up mr.pony himself if he was in bed with a dude? Was devonte jealous or something?? Let me know.
@@michelle-loraejones5169 Never really got that answer.....but I'm thinking the same reason he came at Danny Boy from Deathrow,according to DB devante asked "what's up with this gay shit I been hearing about,umma get u some pussy" and like most ppl he got offended
If he put hands on gen for being with a dude then he clearly got issues an would put hands on missy for any reason he thought was valid
Interview mr.dalvin again and ask him question about da bassment crew
Vlad can't finish an interview without mentioning Pac.
better than slim jesus
roscoegino He loves Tupac
dang on his birthday too
Suge is like that bad neighborhood kid. I love how anything bad that happened in the 90s people blame suge. Like if a woman purse got stolen in indiana or some shit they b like where was suge at that time lol
😂😂😂
I'm turning 25 years old in October and I've never met my dad before but he named me after that guy lol Devante
It’s a great name
@@ransom6892 thanks
If your dad is not dead he knew he was going to be a loser and not stick around. He named you after another man.
Dalvin looks darker for some reason 🤔... Jodeci was the shit... Devante is a musical genius.. Damn I miss the 90's
Like 4 to 5 shades darker... It's weird...
He was always dark skin. His brother is lighter than him.
@@blueraven8738 he was NOT dark skin...Wtf. You too old to not know your colors
Drugs will make you darker. Look at the way he moves he mouth and he cant sit still. Those erratic movements are those of a dam drug addict.
Why is it “weird?# tf?
who missing a finger
If he bit the finger off how hard would it be to find him.He ida have to show up at the hospital or look for a four finga ninja in the hood.
😂
K.c and jojo are the only 2 that look like themselves
They look rough as.hell
@@leroystrokesmen5666 no they do not none of them do
Tupac said yall need to keep his name out these interviews 😂 he stay getting bought up
MR Dalvin doesn't have a toupee he had a low curly fade he probably just had a blowout dam he had s-curls in the 1990's.
2288bigman tuh
Duke Kit lol 😆
B-legit was messing with Mary J Blige? Bullshyt. She probably never met him in her life nor even knew who he was. He just happened to be riding around with Tupac when this happened and just happen to see MARY J BLIGE and K-CI in the middle of the street out of nowhere. Sounds like a made up story by DJ VLAD or he messing the actual story up.
urbanflavorz Was you there?
urbanflavorz ...Believe me Mary J. used to give that ass away like Girl Scout Cookies
nope. was you in the Titanic? u knew it sunk tho
I don't deny that. I'm saying you just randomly driving thru LA and just happen to see them arguing.
Carlos Rob lol, exactly

The rumor back then is his people from his label did it from him hooking up with Suge and they said pool stick got out we’re they were not suppose to anyone remember that?
This interview should been way bigger than it was. Had potential but kinda fell flat
People need to stop giving that devil information.
Is that a rug?

Good interview but I’m curious why Dalvin feels he can trick us all with that obvious wig he’s wearing.
🥴🤣🤣🤣facts!!
YOU LET NC DOWN!what happen cuzzin?
Wotz going on wid dat hair style? 😃🤔
Is it just me or does Dalvin look like a completely different person now?
Suge did that shit
I believe that s*** too devante probably wouldn't do what he wanted him to do send some guys to kill him
His toupee is horrible
Danny Boy laughing now
..my brother , too much makeup ...good to see him
Definitely
Dalvin, take that man weave off.
i remember hearing about that in jersey; had always thought it was mr dalvin...dude was mad about him f'ing with his sister or something or other...'93 maybe; life and times...
This doesn't make sense
I think those glasses age him...should've kept them off. Damn, getting old's a bitch.

DIDN'T DEVANTE SLAP HIS CREW? KARMA?
it can’t be karma because they claim it start to happen after what happened to him soo get that right
Dont feel sorry for Devante, he was horrible person! He thought he was Suge slapping up Ginuwine, Timberland and Missey!
Thanks too Stevie J, for putting them hands on Devante!
LIEEESSSSS
Thank you, De was a buck 70 at the most who lived in the studio and rarely ate, so you think he got all this energy to be slapping people? I believe ole girls from Suga and Sista...just saying...
Stevie J ain’t do shit, besides Joe Jackson did the same with the Jackson 5🤣😭
anything to sell a story and go viral. why didn’t he bring it up before he did the interview plenty of chances to do it.
everybody bashes suge but praise pdiddy smh
