I’m ready.
If they keep it real, this biopic will be very good.
I hope they come with it like BET did.
I wonder if Mary will be in it.
Smart move by VH1.
I expect lots of drama and drug use.
They better not mess this up! That Aaliyah biopic always has me shook now.
Sh-t ain’t VH1 and BET owned by Viacom? That means this sh-t is about t be good as f-ck. I’m watching got dammit!
Is he gay? He’s always been a little suspect to me.
No offense, but this ain’t gonna be better than the New Edition one. For one thing, New Edition has better music and a better legacy than Jodeci. I mean were we all not singing and dancing along to the movie? It won’t be like that with this one. I was never really a fan of Jodeci anyway. This will just be depressing as hell given how messed up these guys were, well mainly K-Ci and Jo Jo. Who feels like watching a train wreck with no happy ending?
This may offend some, but I don’t think Jodeci deserves a biopic. They aren’t legendary like NE. NE inspired a whole bunch of boy bands, white and black. The only people inspired by Jodeci was Jagged Edge and Dre Hill. Just saying.
I think Jodeci may have been working on their biopic for years now. But to be real, people need to have very low expectations. It’s not going to be as good as the New Edition one period. VH1 will probably cut corners. I mean the TLC biopic was ok but it can’t even compare to the New Edition biopic. So my expectations are very low.
So will Devante finally come out of hiding now?
Come on what’s up with the Jodeci slander fam? No, they aren’t as legendary as NE but they aren’t flops either. And the audacity of someone saying Dru Hill is better. Y’all are trippin. There would be no Dru Hill without Jodeci! Sisqo was a knock off of K Ci!
Well I’m here for it. But it has big shoes to fill. That New Edition biopic was everything.
This should be good.
I was thinking about them after the NE biopic was over so I’m glad to see they are doing this. I’ll definitely watch. They may not have been as big as NE globally but within our community we def knew who they were. They deserve this.
I think Jodeci can do a biopic because the drama behind the scenes was so interesting. New Edition’s biopic was great because there was drama we didn’t know about to share and they have a very strong legacy in the business. Jodeci may not have the legacy like NE but they definitely have the drama. I just hope their biopic is much better than the TLC one because that was so dry.
