Amerie is so underrated.... She has such a beautiful voice. Thanks to 50cent writing such a beautiful song.
Anyone listening like right now
Michelle M and she’s naturally beautiful
blasian so beautiful
Beyoncé stole her sound with crazy in love and amerie was no more
No she's right where she should be
@@TravelHall74 where
Amerie BODIED this hook and chorus 🔥🔥🔥
She did … I often wonder how mjb would’ve sounded on this I feel it’s her type of vibe too
@PrinceDomG I don't think MJB vocals would have suited this song.
For real she did!!!
I love MJB too, but this is Amerie and LL's song.
@@richieporter5124then you’ve never heard MJB’s voice 🤷🏽♂️

Amerie made this song so beautiful
Sheryl Richardson she’s half pinay. And black like me 🤙🏾💃🏽🇨🇿
Amerie laced this track with sultry vocals. LL poured the machismo all over the top. An instant classic.
I totally agree and she is very underrated
She murdered it 💯💯👍❤❤❤❤❤
@@hapamoana9479I thought she was half korean.
Whoever composed the Amerie melody is a genius. One of the best most singable choruses.
50 Cent did that
50 cent its actually his type of hooks
50 did it
Amerie has contributed to the hook & chorus too, she has a writing credit on the song.
50 wrote the track.

Yep! Just got done watching it. Get them likes bro😅
No profanity no disrespectful lyrics and such a beautiful video. Amerie and Gabrielle have not aged. Might I add 2002 was a great year. My senior year of high school.
Trina ur right, neither woman have aged, they are gorge. Yes 2002 was a awesome year for life, music etc
Hell yea good times I graduated 03 ,remember those mofo dances (Stacey from the Wood voice)lol
@@grantyism Indeed
@@PRiMETiME_-bi1od Lol
End of middle school for me
I thing I notice in LL Cool J videos he always has darkskin woman as a lead..I don't know if its him who chooses or the production team but I applaud him for showing love to darkskin women knowing they're always overlooked for the light skin chicks.
facts!!!
Maybe he has a thing for dark skinned chicks. Although Gabrielle isn't that dark skinned though...
mickys333 Well she's dark enough.
Shutup
Daniel Bailey I think people stupid to divide black people y'all make it a problem Thas not needed
The fact 50 wrote this for LL is crazy thats why I had to come back to listen
Me too
The question is, who was more jacked out of 2pac, ll, 50?
I was surprised to find out 50 wrote this, I would of never imagined he did
Me too. Ain't it funny how 50 wrote this while beefin with Ja Rule much for makin pop songs? But hey, that beef was highly personal, and can't nobody take nothin from L. 50 knew the difference.
@@BinaryRex18 50 was the biggest, but LL was the most ripped. Pac was ripped buy skinny
This record is massively underrated. One of my fav LL records ever made.
And I need love 💕
Come one come all 🎉 Sending my love to All may we seek higher grounds and new horizons 🙏💟
Remember there is always sunshine after the storm.I am grateful to share this experience called life much love to all and never forget you are never alone for one thru the holy spirit of our Creator & heavenly savior Ahmen

Wake up darling!
Angel Spivey facts
The fact that 50 wrote the hook is incredible, more because this was released in 2002, before 50 blowed. Also, Amerie and LL Cool J killed it too.
Amerie made this song for me. I loved her first 2 albums. Shoutout to LL. Hits for over 30 years. Great cut.
❤❤❤
50 cent wrote the hook for her on this
She gave life to this track
@@qristofao1437* Fifty gave it life
@dujuanjohnson5025 😁 Nah
Anyone could have written a diff chorus and Amerie would still killed it with her delivery....or did 50 also write her adlibs withing the verses? 😍😍
Amerie is so beautiful 😍😍
she really is
Drop dead gorgeous!
@@Mr102185 I was about to say that, but you beat me to it.
Patrick Senat No problem bro. Great minds think alike. She still is beautiful.
@@Mr102185 She is beautiful I don't even understand why she got plastic surgery
Being 35 now that early 2000’s music hits the soul
For real
Precisely! I'm 34 years old but in all honesty it truly wasn't that long ago but because the music industry's always changing a lot of younger people don't seem to appreciate how solid a lot of these old classics really are. First song that came out over 20 years ago this still sounds very fresh and just gives you the impression that guys like LL Cool were wise to stay relevant in the game
Paradise is really nice!!
I'm 39 (40 in November) so I was 18 in November 2001, this type of music makes me feel nostalgic
@@tomwilliams7391spot on mate! Today's music has no substance. I was 29 when this came out.
This is a fantastic tune written by 50 for LL Cool J ❤❤
He wrote the chorus only
You saw that short too lol@@tonysuarez4445
Troll
He wrote the hook. Stoppit. 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
@@pandroidigitalStupid 50's hater haha
Didn’t know 50 cent wrote this. Wow.
50 reminds me of Neo when he is in the studio to be honest. So talented when it comes to writing hooks and R&B collabs.
50 cent only wrote the chorus don't play LL like that
@@TheNappyroootz he didn't play LL sensitive as n66a we all know he wrote the hook from the interview he put "writing hooks" in the comment
20 years later and nothing out in 2022 compares to this classic. And Amerie’s vocals are amazing thank you Amerie 💜
Shout out to 50 cent for writing this

I feel sorry for kids growing up on these current rappers 😭
man stfu ..... ppl was complaining about this era as well
@@WatchYourMouth97 yeah but this was real rap era unlike todays sad skinny Jean's autotune crap I too feel sorry for todays fans of hiphop how sad 😟😭
Me too...😂😂😂😂
@@lbradshaw6817 Nothing wrong with skinny jeans and autotune. For me, I like the 2000s Hip Hop and current Hip Hop. And I was born in 03.
@@OfficiallyRonny I think he means mumble rap, I'm fine with J. Cole and people who are actually talented but mumble rap is the worst shit ever and makes rap look bad.
This is like one of the best music videos of that era. Ll cool j and Amerie look amazing together they must of had so much fun ☺️
I was halfway shocked 50 wrote the chorus, but I always knew he’d be a great musician in any era. Even in the 60s when all there was were R&B
The Girls were so gorgeous. Beautiful black women ❤️
They are beautiful but Amerie is a beautiful mix of African American and Asian or Korean.
83prettyblack Aaliyah, Amerie, and Donna Summer are both beautiful Capricorn sign singers ♑️
83prettyblack still black...
U mean the girls are so gorgeous
And they are all natural!!!!! Yas queens!!👑👑
Can we go back to the R&B and hip hop era from 2002-2004 please !
Even earlier...Keith Sweat, Soul 4 Real days :-)
yall folks sleeping on the millinum era 97-03. NO ERA had visuals to go with the music like this era did, and I mean not even the 80s or early 90s
2002-2004 ?????

They just don't make songs like this anymore 😪 this is such a great tune
Amerie has such a unique voice. I wish she got the shine she deserved
Yes she does
True. I loved her
My favorite part 2:40
Beyoncé stole that.
@@edwardwhiteside8658 no she didn't. Y'all need to stop blaming Beyonce for everything

Amerie voice is amazing ❤💕
One of my favourite love rap songs ever !!Paradise is timeless🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Amerie killed it I don't know what happened between her and the industry but she definitely should of been bigger.
Beyoncé and Jennifer López stole Amerie’s style because Amerie refused to be a sellout. that’s what happened.

beautiful music like this doesn’t lose its value
And the video is top notch
This was song will ALWAYS be a hit ❤still love it til this day 💯
Im so glad Amerie never sold her soul out to the music industry like others among her did around the time .... they stole her sound but the real knows to whom credit is due God bless her
EXACTLY!!!!!!
Her style wasn;t stolen....her producer just produced other people... He had Mary J first in 99....his style is hot
@SweetiePie Cakes yess What a shame how praised she gets when she took Amerie’s sound and ran with it !
@@sierraxx9979 uupp
I quess the music industry doesn't want asian women ,it's sad because she's pretty and have talent
Why can't music be like this these days... ???
use to be until they decided to let this die on purpose when it wasnt even dead
exactly
50 cent,lil wayne,the south?
Mesha Smith true
50 Cent is dead and Lil Wayne is garbage
2024, I'm still listening to the old skool music... The new generation doesn't know anything about music. Who remembers 106 & Park on BET with Free & AJ and Comic View
the hook has 50 all
over it. that dude knew what he was doing with the hooks he wrote 🔥
the days when RnB and hip hop blended sooooooo well. damn 2000 - 2006 will be missed

This song hits so good! Brings me back to when times were amazing
Damn I can't believe 50 cent wrote this song for LL shit is still 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Was looking for a comment about this, but to correct you he wrote the chorus which Amerie sang, LL wrote his versus…crazy huh
😮
@@Troybwoyy 50 out here writing r&b hooks. I’m 30 and a die hard fif fan and had no clue
The hooks only
He wrote the HOOK. Stop this sh!t 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Amerie's voice is a vibe on it's own. Reminiscing on the good old days.
50 cents range is incredible had no idea he wrote this song
Course just the hook silly
J looks like a statue and Amerie looks like a goddess... This song and clip are perfection! Admire that young generation! Feel that!
LL is a national treasure. 30+ year of iconic entertainment.
When Music Videos had LIFE and COLOR and SOUL to them. This Video takes me to Paradise. The 90s & Early 2000s was the Golden/Silver age. When life felt like you were in another Dimension like Heaven on Earth. Now we live in the Dark Age aka Last Days where everything is dark and depressing. I miss this era....
You are not the only one bro'
Peace!
You ain’t lying homie. I miss these times just as well. Childhood was great!
Yes it was like heaven on earth
SoulKidVids great analogy on that concept
SoulKidVids now we living a nightmare
"Paradise is very nice"...Only LL can make that sound so smooth
This is when music was GREAT 😊
LL had the right women in this video.
Who cares about the woman? Lol?
Facts bro Gabrielle was sexy asf and Amerie did her thing in this collabo with LL cool J
Bayshawn Finney Both still fine just like aging wine
@@bellasignora3122 Well in the day and life that we live in where so many women ain't got real shxt no more... alot of people care about the woman in music video's back then

Herlon Edmondson forgive me. The lyric totally makes sense now! Thanks.
Lollll so true, poetry at its finest
Right?!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌😂
Ll is the goat
I love it. LL took a break for what 3-4years, came back Beefcake af and even better looking 🤣
With this hit, Love u better, the soso J Lo song..
Ll Cool J fukkin' legend 🎉🎉
LL has soooo many bangers, and a dope, extensive song catalog! Amerie's singing the hook and Gabrielle Union's visual sexiness makes this video a legendary Hip Hop & R&B collabo.
2002 was one of the best years for music.
almost the last year for good music! good music ended in 2003 :(
Nasia Rená you're so right!
definitely not. music was on its last leg by then
*****
Yeah True if you want to look at it like that, But it still had the basic characteristic of what HipHop should be. Good Lyrics, Good Beats, sure the message wasnt positive but it was still good HipHop
exactly!
the chorus is beyond DOPE.
yes

Speaking of Amarie she is Half African American half Korean.
Rising to the Top- Kenny Burke.
The thing I miss about the early 2000s we had feel good joints like this, they don’t make em like they used to
It's crazy that 50 cent wrote this, 50s hooks always been catchy as fuck
It was Actually written by Several people, not just 50Cent. Amerie was one of them....
SoulKidVids
also the loop is a classic loop. 50 actually said they almost didnt want to release the song because the loop had been used so much before.
SoulKidVids i think he meant 50 wrote LL's verses. which is true

So much LIFE and COLOR and SOUL in this Video. Takes me to Paradise. The 90s & Early 2000s was the Golden/Silver Age when the Realm were touched by the Heavens(God) when ^Atlantis was here and when Life felt like you were in another Dimension like Heaven on Earth. Now we live in the Dark Age aka Last Days. They don't make Songs or Videos like this anymore....

If i recall correctly this song played in the bar scene where they first meet Ray.
AJ Dynamo yup, and that dude shows up in that same bar when they pull out Eva’s photo and he’s like b-b-b bitch! Lmao It’s not goodbye, it’s hello in reverse
Compton Queen o yea they did
Compton Queen what's ur instagram/ fb?
I liked Ameries nose...but seriously she has one of the most distinct and pure sounding voices ...always come thru on the hook whether with Nas, DMX or Kay Slay....
She was & is still so beautiful. She didn't need it, but then again who does?
@@kitaboo2245 - I had to check this out for myself. That's too bad. She really didn't need to. It's that Korean side of her to want to get that. Korea is supposed to be the plastic surgery capital of the world. My niece was saying when she was living with her ex, the Korean cosmetic workers would always encourage her to get stuff to lighten her skin because, "DARK SKIN...NO GOOOD!" 😂🤣

Ladies love cool j 😎
The message is deep he's a jinn promising a lost soul paradise on earth 50 and LL was cooking with this one it goes over most people head

Ladies Love Cool James
Dopest truth a rapper can give their listeners!
LL Cool J wrote bars, and 50 Cent wrote the hook, masterpiece! Why are cats bugging?
Fab killed this song
This song was released on December 14, 2002, as the second single from LL Cool J's 9th studio album, 10 (2002). It also appears on the soundtrack to the 2003 film Deliver Us from Eva, in which LL Cool J stars alongside Gabrielle Union. Singer Tweet was originally slated to provide vocals but Amerie was eventually chosen instead. On the August 12, 2022 edition of The Breakfast Club, 50 Cent revealed that he ghostwritten LL’s verses on the song. "Paradise" embodies portions of Keni Burke's 1982 song "Risin' to the Top", penned by Burke, Allan Felder, and Norma Jean Wright.
Great insight
Right, I didn't even know none of that's crazy. Well, I did know about the movie Didn't know the rest though
Bruh, stop it… you copied this straight from Wikipedia. Y’all r*tarded 😂
And LL then made clear that he wrote his own verses, but 50 wrote the hook/chorus sung by Amerie. LLs verses don't sound like they were written by 50 as well so I believe him when he says he wrote them himself.
50 cent wrote amerie chorus.
LL wrote his lyrics.
