Jodeci Booed Off Stage During Comeback Performance
Jodeci
R&B group Jodeci was booed off stage in London, England at
Wembley Arena, during a 90s nostalgia concert featuring Dru Hill and
SWV, among others, after their performance went awry. Group members K-Ci,
JoJo and Mr. Dalvin, sans Devante Swing, had trouble getting their performance
on track, due to sound issues. Concertgoers also reported the group
looked inebriated.
Jodeci
Jodeci is a talented group had their start in the church, but the
vices of the music industry enveloped them when they became famous in
the 1990s leading to alcoholism, drug addiction, sex addiction,
violence, arrests and discord. It's always sad when this happens, but regrettably
too many people have fallen into the pitfalls of fame. It's happened so
many times and artists need to learn from the mistakes of those that
came before them.
Jodeci was one of my favorite groups during my preteen years. When I
listen to some of the R&B music coming out today, it pales in
comparison to what groups such as Jodeci, Boyz II Men, Guy and Shai did
during their hay day. It is my hope the members of Jodeci will find
sobriety and stick with it.
