Jodeci - Cry for You Appreciation Thread

[I love Latina women]

This song is so timeless
Man, DeVante is one talented songwriter and producer.
K-Ci, JoJo, DeVante and Mr. Dalvin are some talented ass brothers.

 

[TheGregReaper]

Yessir

Yeah, I remember you telling me, like "yo, The Diary of A Mad Band is the one! That's the best Jodeci album"
Cause for the longest The Show, The Hotel, The Afterparty album was my favorite

But on Diary of a Mad Band, DeVante found peak as a songwriter and producer and the songs are just so timeless, man.

Cry for You is just so on a different level that you can't even begin to describe how tight it is.

Both albums are classic masterpieces but Diary of A Mad Band just hits me a lil different from start to finish

Imagine if Prince had reached out and apologized. They could have mad dope shyt together.

 

[DontEemTry]

The true definition of a classic.

Could a song like this even be made today though?

We never looked at this song as some sort of simp anthem back then...but if it came out today?

 

[AMcV'88]

undeniable classic..even down to the video.
Love U 4 Life will prolly always be their best song of theirs too me.

Crazy

Can you imagine Prince, Devante Swing and DJ Quik making songs together



ALL of them were/are multi-instrument playing, talented artists and they can engineer, arrange and produce

I know Quik and Devante have co-produced a few songs too

shyt would be off the hook

Quik produced this, Devante played the keys on it

Shade Sheist - Informal Introduction



Devante and Jodeci are listed on 'Quikstrumental' from DJ Quik's 'Trauma' album, I know his vocals are on it but I'm sure he did some sort of production;

Devante is on this song too



Here he is in the video at 0:35


Devante is so talented that he would have input on any song he would be on, which is EXTREMELY rare as a guest apperance after '96

 

[Ashtrey]

That whole album

First R&B album I ever bought.

 

[I love Latina women]

Yessir, that would've been nice
