Jon B is the truth, he wasn't a white boy trying to be black he is just a soulful man with white skin. True talent never given the credit that he deserved as a true artist, but I will say I have never been disappointed seeing him live. He captures the audience and makes you feel as if you are the only person in the room he is singing to. Love Jon B for life
I love that dinner scene. At the beginning you see Jon B get his woman’s chair and shows he’s a good respectful man. And when her dad gets up and you anticipate tension then he hugs Jon should remind us all that if a man respects a woman... that should be all that matters in accepting their relationship. Not something trivial like skin tone. And such a good song too. Jon B is the truth.
My husband do the same for me I love my boo 2 that's a real man teaching others guys how a woman should be treated 👏🙏pray for god to send you that special man you want be disappointed
R&B is so dead right now. Nobody makes music like this any more. There needs to be love in the art. I make hip-hop, but I miss music like this. It's real and we always need it
Lord pls bring back this kind of music. People were in a better state of mind when this type of music was out. He didn't have a color when he sang what was inside of him...he was just himself. Our artists today have really sold out to our demise.
He has a new song out with Tank but to me it ain't all that good and he has another one with case or Donnell Jones forgot which one but that was wasn't good at all
Roddy101 ....a singer who has an amazing voice, but for some reason, not enough people recognize that. Robin Thicke is fortunate because he's become mainstream and he actually has talent.
+RebelThoughts82 LOL for a minute there I was like "what RnB artist?".I forgot about Trey songs and them. Yea you're right. There are some good rnb artist they're just not popular. But yea today i think the genre is call trapp music, i think. No i forgot what it's called but it's pretty much half booty rappers that aren't good enough to be categorized as emcees, so went the somewhat rnb route but can't sing for the life of them genre. The only popular true rnb artist is Trey and he's trash to me. A wanna be R.kelly but not quite. He knows it to that's why sex is his main focus.
He should’ve received more recognition for his work!! The industry missed the mark on this guy. Loved his music videos featuring beautiful black women!!
Both of his wives were black. Most of the songs on his first album including this one was for his high school sweetheart who he married. They ended up divorcing and then he married another black lady. So yea...Jon is all about the black goddess...lol
This song is so damn pretty. I just woke up from a nap with this song in my head out of nowhere and I'm glad it was in my thoughts. Such a beautiful song!
Wow this guy gets lost in the 90s era of great R&B. He made great songs and can flat out sing. Clearly came from that Babyface school of tone of his music. This is a good underrated love song. Listen too his music how many modern day R&B Singers are making records like he use too in the 90s and be honest do they sound better.
Very very few got or even come close to Jon B. I think he's One in a million his vocals are carzy out of this world g ood I would like to See him and Stokley of Mint Condition hook up on an album or CD, l would just literally lose my mind! I would buy every CD, Album , TAPE CASSETTE YOU NAME It ! I would buy it! Even 8 tracks !
You just put the cd on and let it do what it do. Cool Relax was good from start to finish. My favorites were Shine and Cool Relax (both versions). This is still my jam.
Damn, can we please bring this type of music back?!?! Sounds of real R&B, got me at work reminiscing & what not...I swear, this era had some good music!!
I smiled the entire time watching this video. I love me some Jon B! He hasn't came to STL yet this year and I need my Jon B. Fix. I think I'm going thru withdrawals...I need to see him live every year!
There's Michael McDonald, Daryl Hall, Bryan Abrams (Color Me Badd), Justin Timberlake, etc., on down the line (not many)....If you can stand on the Apollo Stage in Harlem and NOT get booed off as a white soul singer...you got IT!...Jon B is white Soul to the extreme and soo glad he's still going. Awesome!
I’m ashamed to admit, this is the first time I’ve watched this video and I’ve heard this song since I was 16 years old!!! Maybe it’s because I’ve been with and married to My Boo for over 20 years and he reminds me of Jon B!❤️
We didn’t know what we had in the 90s... there will never be music or movies like the 90s. I mean even pop music was on point. We had it all👌🏾music made your heart melt ❤️
sally strickland yasss sally boo u can't keep a good man down Jon b I feel is just getting started he hasn't even begun to be where he should his relationship with god and his wife is everything he taught me sooo much last night
The 90's were #lit musically! I had Jon B , D'Angelo, Erykah & Lauryn as my go to artists. The music was creative and had vibes that you could feel , really miss it. 💕

R&b needs to comeback get rid of this stupid mumble clown bs so called rap music.
This rendition of the song is really good! Jon B is a musical genius!
This man isn't appreciated enough he deserves more❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jon B paved the way for Robin Thicke and Justin Timberlake to enter into this genre of R&B Music….We didn’t see his color, we saw his SOUL.
Let's not forget we had Bobby Caldwell or Color Me Badd
Robin Thicke was already in the game, but true for Timberlake.
George Michael
@@QuaiChandler-nn5duyep George Micheal
Micheal McDonald as well was before them all

Jon B is the most under appreciated artist I’ve ever heard, it’s unbelievable that he has not gotten the credit he deserves. 💛
I know right plus he’s klay Thompson twin😊

Amen to that

Black people love and accept EVERBODY while most in the world hate us 😢. Shout out Jon B. Wonderful vocal talent.
We're on the right side of history.
Facts
People hate what they can't control.🤷🏾♀️😘💪🏾👑
So true.
Accept everything except themselves. It's pathetic.
I don't care what color he is he should had got a Grammy and a SoulTrain award for this album
Elton Rainner You'll ain't never lied
Elton Rainner real talk bra

Yes Amen
This album!!

This video should have wayyy more views. I hate when singers are meant to be legends and they don't get a chance to.
lol forreal tho:)such a fly dude!!!
Denisha Anuforo heyy girl heyyy
hahah hey girl:)
so robin thicke cant??
Roddy101 ....a singer who has an amazing voice, but for some reason, not enough people recognize that. Robin Thicke is fortunate because he's become mainstream and he actually has talent.
Man this shit gets me every time. Tears of joy. Who's wit me?
Back when music was wholesome! Jon B's truly a legend, who needs his flowers, while he's still here!
Saw a recent picture of Jon B. and he still fine
Keisha Iz Awesome Yessss honey

Brittany Hicks JON B SEPT. 6TH 2017 EMPRESS THEATRE IN VALLEJO CA.
Jon B is one of the most authentic ever made ❤ its not about color ifs about SOUL ......
BAD ASS MAN PERIOD in HIS ERA 🎉🎉💯💯💯💯💯 💯💯
He wrote this song when he was 17. Talented Man.
Man he should have won a award for this album and this song was very underrated, one of the most romantic of the 90s.
Emmanuel Roberson. Not only was this track underrated, but he was underrated. He didn't get the attention he deserved.
Why Was He So Fineee!! Omg!! And His Voice Is Everythang!!
Jon B.....you've got a fan for life. I own every album including the independent ones. Sony screw up letting him go.
Bochanable yesss all and can't wait til Mr.Goodnight in February
I always tear up when the father hug Jon B he looks just like my grandfather that passed away when I was a kid 🥺
💜🕊️
I'm still crushing on Jon B. - he sings to my soul. ❤
Todays R&B cats aren't even close to Jon B's level.
You is so right about that r&b artist needs to go back to RNB school and take some lessons on what R&B is all about
you better preach!!!

I wish time travel was real. This song definitely makes you want to back in time. Real Love Music ❤
He should’ve received more recognition for his work!! The industry missed the mark on this guy. Loved his music videos featuring beautiful black women!!
This will always be one of my all time favorites!
+Tiffany McCall Me too!
real spill... he had some dope muzic...some slappers
Same
His fine ass. I love that he always had Black women as his leading lady.
No he didn't. Most were Hispanics.
Young Petey385 Hispanic is not a race, I hope you figured it out in a year.
slm22186 his wife is black also, they have children
Both of his wives were black. Most of the songs on his first album including this one was for his high school sweetheart who he married. They ended up divorcing and then he married another black lady. So yea...Jon is all about the black goddess...lol
Minka Gaston Facts indeed :-) :-)! Can't help the fact that We Are The ShizNick/Beautiful Black Queens :-)
Thank you for being yourself and not giving into the industry
I used to love this song! I had his album on cassette tape! I wore that tape out!🤣 Love Jon B.❤
I'm glad he's back and with Donnell Jones that just made it more special ❤️
Jon B deserves his flowers
🌺 🌺🌺🌺🌺💯💯
Everyone talks bout hip hop is is dead, BUT WTF HAPPEND TO R&B THE MUSIC OF THE SOUL
Exactly
right!!!÷!!!!!
I agree with you
It was killed when Pop music took over.
it's all Chris Brown garbage now
J b is one of my favorit rnb songest. He really puts his heart in it. If I ever was to make a hit. My name would be jon b. Lady I.t.
This song is so damn pretty. I just woke up from a nap with this song in my head out of nowhere and I'm glad it was in my thoughts. Such a beautiful song!
Same I dream about this song last night I'm playing it over and over
He let it be know he loved black woman!! He is still married to the same black woman for years!! I so love him!!
Audrea Phipps no he's not, but he did marry again and she's black
No he's not married someone else
That's sooooo sexy!!!
They got split up, so was worthless woman.
Audrea Phipps exactly. black men make videos with no black women. it's pathetic.
I love this song, it's so romantic and Jon B. is so talented. This video is about unity and love.
+Asia Alonzo-Rodriguez it's go Kobe you for you
Brooklyn Love Ny!
I’ve always loved Jon B. He deserved to be much more recognized in the industry than he has. I still play his music
the song and video are so wholesomeeeee i cant 😭
Man this album was top notch from top to bottom they don't make them like this anymore
Unsung brought me here. Had to come and check out one of the many timeless Jon B jams. #WhiteChocolate 🙌

I wish this song had the recognition "They Don't Know" gets.
Im so glad i found this masterpiece man
Jon B always came with the slow jam slaps! Hella underrated 😶

I’m ashamed to admit, this is the first time I’ve watched this video and I’ve heard this song since I was 16 years old!!! Maybe it’s because I’ve been with and married to My Boo for over 20 years and he reminds me of Jon B!❤️
