Known as the sexy bad boys of the R&B scene, Jodeci is made up of Jo-Jo Hailey, Donald “DeVante Swing” DeGrate and Cedric “K-Ci” Hailey, with Dalvin DeGrate joining at a later date. No strangers to success, Jodeci’s smooth sounds have been topping the charts since the early 90s, when they released Forever My Lady. The album featured the gold single, “Come and Talk to Me,” and sold over three million copies. They belt out powerful ballads and jazzy love songs with seductive beats that concertgoers can’t help but sway along to at their live shows. Their tours have been selling out across the country since the early 90s, and the band continues to shine during their reunions. They radiate energy and wrap the audience in their smooth, soulful sounds.
The foursome are natives of North Carolina, and their music is heavily influenced by their experience singing gospel music as youngsters. Rapper Heavy D was instrumental in the band’s success, convincing Uptown president Andre Harrell into signing them after hearing their demo. It’s hard to miss the enormous talent evident in each of their three records, but "Forever My Lady" was definitely their initial ticket to success. On the band’s third album The Show, the After-Party, the Hotel they were able to work with R&B legend Al Green on the song “Could This Be the Love.” Jodeci's sound is admired in many different musical circuits, from R&B to soul to gospel to easy listening, and their fans applaud their musical prowess and ability to pump so much sexy magic into each of their songs.
I have waited forever on a Jodeci reunion. They still look and sound awesome. I am giving this 4 stars because the show started an hour late and their opening act, Troop only did 3 songs. Tony Toni Tone did a great job on their set. Jodeci only did very few songs and a couple of them were not even the full song. It probably lasted 25 minutes. I feel cheated on the time but their performance was classic.
My husband and I were very disappointed in Jodeci's performance because the lead singer (KC) was drunk or high to the point that he could not perform. He literally staggered across the stage and belted out incomplete lines of songs. He really looked as though he could have fallen over at any moment. It's a shame that a great group such as Jodeci cannot do well because of their lead singer's addiction problems. All the other guys of the group did well. I sincerely hope that KC gets his act together. Also, the music was extremely loud...I think to drown out KC drunken singing problems. I will never pay good money to see Jodeci again.
My boyfriend and I are huge Jodeci Fans so I got him tickets as a early Father's day gift. The show was the bomb!!!! Case opened up for them which was a great surprise. We really enjoyed ourselves. Only thing was they didn't sing allll of their hits but overall I enjoyed it. I was up out my seat majority of the time...it took me way back to my high school college years. Loved It!!!!!
90's R&B is still present!! The guys sang all their hits and still sounded amazing!!! They were very involved with the fans and it was a really good time!!! After the show DeVante and KC-I came off the tour bus to take pictures with fans !!! I love Jodeci & Case and can't wait to see them again !!!!
Great show but wished it was longer. Overall pleased.
It was great to see Jodeci back together, performing again. However, they need to polish up their stage act before their full tour schedule begins. Fans expect performers to put on a "show" these days when they pay for a concert. The performers can no longer just show up, stand on stage, and sing.
