20 years ago? Are you kidding me? And Jon B and Sanaa look even better today! Jon B has been the real deal from day 1. So glad to see him on Unsung. I hope he feels the love that we have for him and his artistry.
90s kid here. I learned my love of music as a youngster. The only time it became filtered was when I moved into another spot-as a foster kid-with family "christians"
Only 21 years old but my dad use to play after 7, babyface, jon b, mint condition, kevon edmonds, az yet, ect all the time. Man I miss this music, allot of you guys blame the younger people for the music today. But who own the big company's people from your era, We still have great music they just wont play it.
Nah!! Don't put that shit on US!! WHITE PEOPLE OWN THE BIG LABLES!! AND Y'ALL SUPPORT IT!! WE Don't Buy That Ish!! Money Talks!! Bullshit Walks!! If your generation STOP BUYING that shit! The sales will stop! And they will STOP putting that shit out there.
Much 🎶 Respect to Babyface for adding Jon B. To his background vocal lineup. He unknowingly brought forth to, all of, us r&b music lovers a treasure of a musician, writer, & singer. 🎶💛🎶
Jon B is hot as Hell still to this day. Knew so many white boys around the school years that looked like him. Timberlake and Beiber who. This is the main white boy.
1997... My cousin and I drove from New Orleans to Jacksonville listening to this single... Didn't have the whole album just this single and another song tht was on the tape, lmao....#goodoldays
+Vanessa Appouh trust me, the more todays climate is phoned in, the more credit artists like Jon gets. The fact that you came to the track and showed your appreciation that was, as well as leaving the comment, trust me, it goes a long way into making sure the credit is everlasting.
This will forever be my baby daddy in my head and my ❤ . *Him and Donell Jones are two of the best singers of this era and so underrated* ‼️‼️ I miss this time in music 🎶
Does anyone else remember when R&B was actually worth listening to? Jesus christ, this album came out in '97, and it's still doper than all the shit on the radio right now.
I owned and loved the whole CD 💿 album the attached joint were on; the whole CD 💿 album's beautiful richness by John B's rich sounds of soulful 🎶 🎶 singing 🎶 voice is richly heartfelt; plus his spirit's talented to mimicking the made-up art of the words of sign language of communications in ways that some females and males talk the sign language or persons can just simply understand and or can relate to by someway or by someways having learnt the art of sign language of communications. 😘 Love peace & respect to John B and the female actresses Sanaa Lathan for sharing their spirits beautiful richness by the attached joint.
Don't say what you won't do You know you'll be the first one To go on through yes you will Don't say what you won't do You know you'll be the first one To go on through yes you will I know you mean well But looking at you one can't tell You've got changes to make Cause the why you treat me girl Just ain't right Always fronting on someone But never think about the damage you've done To me and it's about damn time I talk about it Everytime I do for you You turn around and make me feel like a fool With your actions So much for the words Baby I love you yes Bridge: Cause now I've wised up girl It's time for me to go You better think about it Cause I'm hear to let you know Chorus: Don't say what you won't do You know you'll be the first one To go on through yes you will Don't say what you won't do You know you'll be the first one To go on through yes you will I wanna make good love to you I wanna do the things you wouldn't do But you're forcing me to look the other way baby I'm seeing things that I really shouldn't see Girl you better hurry 'cause you're running out of time And this is the last chance for you to be mine And i'm asking you what you gonna do Tell me what you gonna do Bridge: Cause now I've wised up girl It's time for me to go You better think about it Cause I'm hear to let you know Chorus: Don't say what you won't do You know you'll be the first one To go on through yes you will Don't say what you won't do You know you'll be the first one To go on through yes you will
I have literally bought the Cool Relax album 6 times over 10 years. This man is gold. His music, voice, he's smoking hot..good music with longevity is priceless.
JonB has been one of my FAVs 4 a long time. He has always ways been overlooked, I bout every CD except the first one. Still keep a lot of JonB tunes on my slow jams playlist!!!!!
I thought I would've been the only one who noticed! Or to post about it lol. I mean, I'm one of his biggest fans but... 😖 A lot of those moves are a bit awkward. You can tell he feels the same way.😄
MAN I had such a crush on this man back then! This video set it off for me because I love everything about it..his multi-talents, singing, songwriting, subject, wardrobe, dancing, FINENESS lol! Everything. Too bad he's married but he seems happy so I'm happy for him and his family.
I never heard this song before.... I only know two of his song, They don't know, Are u still down, wait... three..... what you say boo!!!!! He is fine as I don't know what... we need more music from Jon B
Very very I mean VERY UNDERRATED! only 2 million views wow! I'd think it would have like 200 million. Keep listening and supporting this icon he's a great!
+Keith Crampton traveling the world, touring all over. still making tracks. and being a father and husband. he has alot of other business ventures he has gotten involved with as well. he is eating and eating well. go check out Only One. in fact, peep that entire Comfortable Swagg album. and the 2 or 3 preceding. i dont think you will be disappointed. I wasnt.
One of the best things Tracey Edmonds did was discover this dude..Too bad she left him in the cold..Jon B is a Mega Talent that deserves Flowers for real.
Had the pleasure of meeting him and hearing him sing in concert Saturday and I must say he sounds the same!!! He said he was the first 'white boy' to do this R&B.... #realtalk
i saw him, too in Indy...where'd u see him? He wasn't lying about that, tho. He REALLY was the only 'white boy' to do TRUE R&B(none of that watered-down pop\R&B that u hear a lot of white artists do...it's like 'pop infused w\R&B elements' is how the critics/journalists refer it)from the 90s era.
I always like this dude his music is rhythm and blues and don't forget that he was the first white boy to be able to cross over to R&B you go Jon I cannot wait to hear your new album missing you not bad looking either
I truly believe that every single one of us on this planet has experienced heartache of the magnitude this man is singing about. You can tell he has been there. Brilliant.
ROBIN THICKE CANT TOUCH THIS MAN !!
I agree.
Not even close. And he's too cocky
he cannot!!! facts... #TeamJB
Robin who?
REAL TALK 1000%
We where soo spoiled in the 90,s to have this type of music and vibes 😌.

People say "Black don't crack."
My heart melts EVERY time I get a chance to hear Jon B....I still love him just like I did when I was young girl! *smiles*
I had the biggest crush on Jon B. When I was in my teens. He’s seriously White Chocolate!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I may have seen this video 100 times, but this is the first time I noticed he's the one on all the instruments. What talent.
He done effed up with the bar for any future white R&B artist when he was active, he took it to the stratosphere.
❤
Right
How could you possibly miss that? lol
Um this video is like 30 years old . How can you just now notice lol

The whole cool relax cd jams!
I know right I listen to this cd everyday
As a 89 baby 90s kid hearing the other 3 singles off the radio in rotation how did this one miss me. Must’ve not been promoted enough.
I'm not sure what there is to dislike about this song. smh.. Jon B had my CD player on lock in 1995... Very nice song..
He's still performing. I just saw him in concert last weekend. He was amazing! 20 years in the game and he still sounds great!
Much 🎶 Respect to Babyface for adding Jon B. To his background vocal lineup. He unknowingly brought forth to, all of, us r&b music lovers a treasure of a musician, writer, & singer. 🎶💛🎶
Jon B is hot as Hell still to this day. Knew so many white boys around the school years that looked like him. Timberlake and Beiber who. This is the main white boy.
That's what the Timberlake, Beiber fans are gonna say 30 yrs. from now.😊
Magnificent track without vulgar in lyrics unlike garbage we hear today.
1997... My cousin and I drove from New Orleans to Jacksonville listening to this single... Didn't have the whole album just this single and another song tht was on the tape, lmao....#goodoldays
This dude is crazy talented!!!
My favorite Jon B track
First of all, we get a young Sanaa Lathan. Then, a track that I can still want to listen to in 2016.
This is a sleeper hit song, many slept on it, including myself, but I'm loving it now
Cool Relax album forever on loop. Love and respect to you, Jon B.
💯❤️🎈
I have loved Jon B. since 1997 his music is beautiful and touches the soul. I wish he can get the credit he deserves because he is amazing.

Don't say what you won't do
You know you'll be the first one
To go on through yes you will
Don't say what you won't do
You know you'll be the first one
To go on through yes you will
I know you mean well
But looking at you one can't tell
You've got changes to make
Cause the why you treat me girl
Just ain't right
Always fronting on someone
But never think about the damage you've done
To me and it's about damn time I talk about it
Everytime I do for you
You turn around and make me feel like a fool
With your actions
So much for the words
Baby I love you yes
Bridge:
Cause now I've wised up girl
It's time for me to go
You better think about it
Cause I'm hear to let you know
Chorus:
Don't say what you won't do
You know you'll be the first one
To go on through yes you will
Don't say what you won't do
You know you'll be the first one
To go on through yes you will
I wanna make good love to you
I wanna do the things you wouldn't do
But you're forcing me to look the other way baby
I'm seeing things that I really shouldn't see
Girl you better hurry 'cause you're running out of time
And this is the last chance for you to be mine
And i'm asking you what you gonna do
Tell me what you gonna do
Bridge:
Cause now I've wised up girl
It's time for me to go
You better think about it
Cause I'm hear to let you know
Chorus:
Don't say what you won't do
You know you'll be the first one
To go on through yes you will
Don't say what you won't do
You know you'll be the first one
To go on through yes you will

Loved this song when it first came out,many years later it's still amazing
Just saw him last summer in San Diego, he still sounds just as good live!!
He does. I saw him live 20 years ago and was amazing even this..timeless.
One more note, So sad this doesn't have a Million views for a VEVO "Wake up people"
Sanaa Lathan is my #1 celebrity crush. Having her in a Jon B. video is a dream come true.
Love the way Jon B. moves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I never heard this song before.... I only know two of his song, They don't know, Are u still down, wait... three..... what you say boo!!!!! He is fine as I don't know what... we need more music from Jon B

Jon b is the shit!!! But the first is Bobby Caldwell!!! What you won't do for love!!! That was 1976, some OG's put me up on game in da 90's about him.
That's true. He said that at the Charlotte concert too.
Bobby Caldwell disagrees
Yessss yesss I will blast some Jon. B in a minute....
Jon B tearin up some greens at the Q. Justin and Robin didn't get in.
🤣🤣🤣

When I heard this, I knew he had avoided the sophomore jinx! A #1 record for sure!
