Jaheim is SOHH Ghetto; Mario Wants to be More Soulful

| 57 Comments

Thanks to some glitch in the matrix, our interview with Jaheim never hit the internet. But don't fret my pets, we'll get it up one day this week. In the meantime we can revel in Jaheim claiming the #1 spot on Billboard with his third cd Ghetto Classics.

When you check the names of Jaheim's first two cds Ghetto Love and Still Ghetto you quickly see a theme emerging. Jaheim is ghetto. And after 152,000 sold it's a good thing. In our interview, Jaheim's responses were filled with one liners, nothing as eloquent as found on his new cd but hey we take what we can get.

Mario on the other had is looking for less hip hop influence and more soulful yearnings on his new cd. Apparently he has enlisted Jermaine Dupri, Alicia Keys, Neyo (who wrote on "Let Me Love You") and a ton of others to be on his next cd. Thankfully there was no mention of Jamie Foxx.

And speaking of Mr. Foxx instead of casting his new love interest Gabrielle Union as the lead in his new video, he went with CoverGirl Eva Pigford. Not a bad choice. Ms. Pigford will be featured in the video for "DJ: Play A Love Song". Watch footage here.

The "soulful transition for Mario shouldn't be difficult at all. Any r&b head can vouch for me when I say that his last cd was definitly a a step closer towards making music with more substance than flair. Hookin up with producers the Underdogs (see Glenn Lewis) is proof that he knows what he's doing. Let me Love You was a cool song and all that, but listen to tracks like, "Couldn't Say No" and "Like Me Real Hard". On these cuts Mario's songwriting is refreshingly deep and mature. Analyzing the unspoken subtleties of relatinoships rather than the general "baby I love you" or baby i miss you" bullshit. Dont sleep on dude.

Free Glenn Lewis!!!!
Where the hell is Musiq???
Donny Hathaway and Sam Cooke forever!!!

Jahiem is gay. I don't fuck with them gay singers (Jahiem, Maxwell, Gerald Levert, Johnny Gill, Usher). Them niggaz is singing to each other. NO HOMO A!

The young dudes be killing me. They try to be so damn hard that it makes them come across real fake. They don't listen to R&B, they just listen to hardcore, gansta hip hop all day all night. No pussy getting muthafuckaz! Mario needs to stay right where he is at. He has found his nitch and it's working for him right now. Jaheim just need to put out one complete and solid CD. He always has some good songs on his shit, but a lot of weak ones as well.

theres always a bitch ass nigga sayin some1 is gay....nigga if ja was gay u wouldnt be born

oooooohhhhh! damn real nig! that was a good one.some fighting words right there . anyway there's only a few r&b cats i listen to and Jaheim is one of them.other than that its nothin but old school for me and i'm only 25. if i cant relate to it then i dont listen. alot of these dudes now will have a song like," Let's get married and have a family," then the very next song is about I want to fuck your sister in the back seat and shit like that. Then its back to love and shit. That's not shit i want to hear.at least the old school is real wit it.

Jaheim's new CD is good...but that's nothing new...he's always someone I like to hear from...Mario has an awesome voice I hope he stays true to himself...It was great to hear him on "Let Me Love You"...I love Jamie Foxx...Can't wait to see the video...He's serious about the Evas..lol

I have some inside info about Jaheim. I can't say how I know cuz it might implicate me but actually him and Mario had a thing for a while. I've seen them tossing each other's salad with my own eyes and I enjo.... I mean it was nasty. They wern't at my house by the way. Niggas is gay! But you didn't hear that from me.

I LOVE GETTING MY ASS LICKED. AM I GAY?

Eva pigford is busted, she's got one pose. Head to side looking straight ahead with her mouth agape. She's done that pose for just about every barely decent pic she has.

Jaheim is that r&b dude, dude can sing but has no sugar in his tank. His first cd is a classic.

Jaheim is a wonderful singer. He is like Teddy P mixed with some hood. I love it. I think that he should be outselling a lot of the male artists that are out there. But, is often overlooked. His new album is on heavy rotation in my car, at home, and at work.

I really don't care too much about the Jamie Foxx thing. I am just happy he didn't get a white chick like Kanye. He kept it black and beautiful.

Mario? Well, I think his better tracks were on his first album. "Braid My Hair", "Chick With The Braids" and "Just A Friend" make me feel all summer-y. I don't care for the "Im-Tryna-Be-Grown-And-Sexy-Look". Though he did look extremely hansome last year in that black suit. Very nice touch.

JAHEIM is the truth! Jah albums are always type tight. His music is produced by The Dj from Naughty by Nature(forgive me I forget his name but he produces some real r&b classics).The Dj also worked on Coffee Brown. (Somebody help me w/ the Dj name! opps For ot my focus factor-
Eva Pigford is type corney pretty girl but coming from a brother she is lacking in the Booty department! He should have gone w/Toccarra! She has got it all and a little more to spare!Hell he could have ran with that light skinned chick from the players cluB!(SHE CURRENTLY HAS A TV SHOW WITH TISHA CAMPBELLS HUSBAND) Damm I forget her name too as well she is pretty and she has a fat AS@#@$.
Mario is another yougin in the game that I think has great promise and I hope will be around for a minute!

Jaheim is an underrated artist!He can sing.I can't stand Mario.All these fake R&B cats need to quit.Turning Point was garbage!Straight up garbage!

Jah is gay?? You got aome inside info? Were u there? Who else is gay that u know of? Jay-Z?

Jah is the bomb, who is making great music. ANYONE who thinks he is gay is hating!

Listen and Rate the song I got dissin the hell out of young Jeezy the hoe-man on American Idol Underground Just type Rasta Boi in Artist Search.
Purchase music on CD baby.com
