MUSIC VIDEO: H-TOWN ft. JODECI - “KNOCKIN YOUR HEELS OFF”
Monday, October 26, 2009
Hit 90s R&B group H-Town (Solomon “Shazam” Conner, Darryl “G.I.” Jackson), are back this year with a new single “Knockin’ Your Heels”. The single is the 1st off their upcoming new album “Child Support”. Above is the official music video for the single, which features the former members of Jodeci (K-CI & JoJo, Devante, Mr. Dalvin).
Hate to say it, but some people need to know when to hang it up. This looks like a parody video and what is going on with Devante?!!

NOOOOooooOOOo!!!!! Why does it seem so ameture and desperate!!! The guy talking in the beginning looks like he’s addicted to something. I so want real music and real r&b to come back, but this won’t do it. ROTFL at the “pac man” hand gesture and the pac man crunch sound at the end lol wow!

They need to take notes from Joe and maxwell.
90’s artists who aged well without all the drugs and alcohol.
Damn at Jodeci.

WOOOOOOOOOW (in Flava Flav’s voice)!!! I am to through with Devante’s rotted teeth… They should NOT have let him be in the intro… OMGosh… I can’t believe it… The song is pretty decent but I do think it may be time for them to hang up…

I like the song!!! I do miss the OLD Devante but it’s time for R&B to step back up and become good music again. Maybe they can school the Rhianna’s and T-Pains, and other no talent muppets that are invading the industry!

I would like to dog the entire thing, but honestly the song is not bad.
Devante really looks like an addict, he ghetto’d the whole video with his appearance.
The other 2 from Htown seem like background singers, sorry to say, But without Devante it would have been ok.

And responding to many of you who are putting Rihanna and Tpain in the R&B catagory, they are not. They are pop singers. I don’t even think there is any real R&B singers out there today. Maybe Mary J, or Keyshia Cole. Thats whats missing today, some real true R&B artist.

mmmmm.
that just reminded me of:
#1….how old i am, and…..
#2….never to touch drugs.
the song doesn’t sound THAT bad, but i wish i had listened to it prior to seeing the video.
i…..man…..i just don’t know what to say about those Jodeci boys.
and shazam actually looks okay with the bald head.
hold on….why is this featuring “Jodeci” and K-Ci is the only one they show singing?
mmmm. i guess.

I really hope R&B can be rebirth, these guys are not singing about NOTHING!

The production is not half bad….
BUT them old, rusty ass negros need to stop it…stop it right now.
Devante looked a smoked out fool in the beginning.
All in all this is just a hot, crock pot mess…

This song so reminds me of the 90’s i so sick of the music that they call “R&B” these days. I swear the 90,s was the best decade. They may not look good but they sure as heck sound GOOD!!!

Lol @ the video .. so “amateurish” .. and the video ruined the song for me. If I had listened to the song first I MIGHT have though it was somewhat okay but now .. the video and the song are whack - as well as their ‘dance’ moves.
And I’m assuming from the comments that the guy talking in the beginning is Devante? Well his grill sure is jacked up.
I’m 18 and I would MUCH rather have the old 90’s tunes come back .. people think ‘young people’ don’t know what real music is and what not but that is so not true. I would prefer the older artists to come back instead of most of these newer artists

I usually dont comment, but this video was too funny. Had 2 watch twice. Like everyone said Devante looks like shit. This negro look 50.
The sing off on the rooftop was too funny
but what got me was the 2nd part them turned around facing the brick wall
hell naw.
RIP Dino!!!!!!!

The song feels a little 1998-ish. The H-town twin used to be so fine way back when. I had been waiting to see Jodeci back together again, not quite like this though, but I’ll take what I can get.

This sucks and why is Rihanna and T Pain’s name on here?? WTF yall are a mess they aint got nothing to do with rnb well Rihanna don’t and T pain is just a hype man to me. Nobody ever said Flava Flav wasn’t real music back in the day. Enjoy what you got because the end is coming.

This video is a strong argument in favor of abstinence from all vices: premarital sex, drunkenness, addictions, THE WORLD.
It looks like one of those, “this is your brain on drugs” promos.
Learn from the mistakes of others and have a better life.

I could only bear to watch 1:10 of this crap before I got bored. I too had a crush on Devante and I can’t tell you why. He looked crack headish then and looks like that now 15 years after the fact. This video eventhough I did not view it all STINKS!!!

The comments on here are too Funny. I admit that i had to watch the rest of the video becasue I wanted to see what everyone was talking about. The rooftop who was filming that, one of their kids?
The starring at the brick wall then turning around scene is too funny. I think this is truly the end for us Black ppl.

Wow, such a shame to see people who were so successful fall so low. They needed to save the cost of this video and put it on that child support instead. On the other hand, at least they are trying to make a come back and maybe that means they’ve left the drugs alone. I sure hope so.

Great song. It’s good to hear Jodeci again. H-town is not the same without Dino(RIP to him). I hope the song does well. R&B needs this RIGHT NOW!!
DeVante looks horrible. He looks 50, 60 years old. Leave the cocaine & crack ALONE De. Dalvin is still FINE as ever. K-Ci looks better & JoJo still looks the same. RIP Dino. I wished he was here to sing with them.

Devante is that you? I thought that was huggy bear. you looked like someone “knocked” you in the mouth with a “heel”. K-Ci your voice sound like some stray cats and metro train brakes. *sigh* lay off the drugs fellas..i think my computer got high..

Devante, Crack is Wack, I remember they were saying that he contacted AIDS at one time. Looking at the video it may be true. He do look sick. I know K-Ci wish he would not have let Mary go now. Bitch

no, no, no. The members in H-Town look a little unrecognizable. A little heavier and haggard for sure. Devante looks really bad, like he’s been drinking or abusing something. Whatever he was doing it has added 10 years to his face. Shame.
67.
wow
Monday, October 26, 2009 /
did he say “let me in your castle baby” ….am i trippin or is that what he said? lol
other than the first line though, this song lowkey knocks! i like it. But i definitely agree with the majority of the comments.
And nobody else peeped how they put the autotune real subtle on the skinny one from Jodeci? there’s even one part where you can tell he didnt hit that note quite right and they just said f*ck it we been in the studio all night tryna make it work, lets just autotune it out and keep it pushin lol

Horrible, cheesy, this song is so weak, is this what R & B music is coming to, really? Stupid lyrics repeated over and over. You would think that for a group who used to bring it and as much time as they took off they would have come way better than this. But i guess when your producer has beed smokin that stuff for so long that’s the best he could come up with. I guess there r no radios in crack houses to listen to for inspiration, huh?

This is so sad and yet so funny. Devante…KCi…why is it always the ones with so much talent who take it for granted, i.e. Amy Winehouse. I wonder why the boys of Jodeci were not in screen shots together. And Dalvin looked a damn fool when he did that pumping movement, oooooo LMAO!!!
