  28. We loved him when he was on your video Gots to getcha. Man he is fine lol. Too bad this album went to waste or got shelved.

  29. what up JD!!!

    first! thank you for bringing bow wow out !!!
    I’m a fan since day 1! have all 6 (tomorrow) 7 albums!
    And it was not always easy for me to get his album because I live in Holland and I always had to order his cd’s from internet!!! weeks later! that sucked but I hope I get new jack city 2 soon!!!!

    My question, for what does LBW stands? LIL bow wow?
    but why lil? cause he dropped it since he was 15 ?

    thanx! AND KEEP DOING YOUR THING!!
    and tell bow wow not to quit RAPPING!
    Im now 21 and listen to his music since I was 13 years old, my whole child hood I grew up with bow wow music! I’m verry happy with that 😀

    LOTS OF LOVE TO SO SO DEF!!!
    LOTS OF LOVE TO SHAD MOSS
    And lots of love to THE OCEANS

  30. Yo!!!! I used to love this song and video. I’m surprised some people haven’t heard about Johnta until recently. Man people are really sleeping on that good R&B music man. I remember when I first saw this video I was dying laughing cause Johnta looked like he was ready to munch the hell outta that girl when he was crawling in between her legs..LOL…Thanks for putting this up JD

  31. That’s my sh– right there. loves it

  32. Can’t wait for the album I no it’s goin to be fiiiirrrree lol

  33. Johnny Sinatra was in rare form in this video. Lol. The song is not my fav. of his but its 1 of those songs that would have to grow on me.

  34. @Meka smellen liikke tameka

    Fire wow why would that be
    Hahaha jD umm ?:a:aa:a

  35. i think 1st time i see this vedio

  36. def jam really messed this record up! after reading everyones comments this dude would have sold some records.

    let me say this, Johnta is the truth! a real R&B super star. If you go back to what JD said in an early post concerning r&b artist and how they want to be rappers., etc… Listen to Johnta’s lyrics! this dude is confessing his love and begging for that nookie. Thats how it should be done!

  37. @WHAT WHAT…..Thanks for that link…. I just read about Johnta….16 YEARS OLD AND WROTE SWEET LADY!!!!!??????? WWWOOOOOWWWW…..

    So JD you have all Vets working with you…..I see…….

    OH NOONY…….

    JD make 2 production teams… One with the Vets and one for the rookies….. There is a lot of musicians that are Lifers, we tired of looking at the life we trying to live it.

    In the meantime Lifers check out http://industrytakeover.ning.com/ All of you producers and songwriters need to sign up… I got this information from Twitter from one of Timberland’s producers Danja… The person that is smart enough to just get songs placed and keep 50% of the publishing is going to kill it… HOLLA…. SPOCK

  38. i love the song

  39. JD!!!!!!!!!!! DAT’S MY SHYT RIGH THERE BOI!!!!!!!!!!!I GOT THAT IN THE CD PLAYER RIGH NOW….’CALL YOU TONIGHT, THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY, YEAH , THAT WAS A SLEPT ON ALBUM. JOHNTA IS SUCH A TALENTED WRITER/ARTIST THAT THE PPL ARE SLEEPING ON RIGHT NOW!! JOHNTA, KEEP DOING YA THING!!!!

  40. OMG… if you haven’t heard this track you are late. He has other tracks B4 this one… Shit I remember “Dope Fiend”, “Lil More Love”, and “Make Her The One”. Catch Up Niggaz!!!!

  41. Johnta has such a smooooooooth voice, that this song is such a good love makin song and just with your body, but making love with your mind… So keep doing what you do JD and could you have Usher and Johnta put more music out, instead a track at a time. Love you-guys. Oh!! I love Dondria voice. God bless!!!

  42. I REMEMBER WHEN THIS VIDEO FIRST CAME OUT… I HAVE BEEN DOWN WITH JD SINCE SILK TYMES LEATHER AND WHEN I SEEN JD IN THIS VIDEO I KNEW JOHNTA HAD TO BE TALENTED. BUT I ALWAYS SAID TO MYSELF WHY DIDN’T JD DELIVER JOHNTAS RAP VERSE? JOHNTA YOU THE MAN BUT LET JD DO THE RAPPIN. SHOUTS OUT TO COX WITH THE CAMEO. JD, COX, AND JOHNTA KEEP BRINGIN THAT REAL MUSIC.

  43. Yes!!! Love Johnta..”the one that got away” is my joint!!! 🙂

  44. Man what ya’ll talkin about? This was my s#$% when it came out! Stop Playin! Are u serious!!!!

  45. Oh my gosh I love this song but I’m not even going to lie, I honestly didn’t know it was Johnta singing this. I have been seeing Johnta on your “Living the Life” videos and I heard about him being in the buisness and all but I never put his face to this record. Thanks for the head’s up JD. Johnta keep it up. =)

  46. I guess i’m livin under a rock and missed this…i’m jumpin on the Johnta train now!
    I like the song and all the subtle mentions that JD put in it like the Janet and Luther.
    Creative video shoot in black and white and all the mirrored image too….way to go boys, i’m ridin’ your train now Johnta!

  47. DAT SHIT IS FIRE!!! AND I DIDNT KNOW HE COULD RAP..???

  48. I just god damn wish I could get the ocean drive album JD how can i get a copy of 1 here in australia!!!!! it wasnt released here

  49. lol..look at Johnta spitting a hot verse. The song is HOT though. Don’t think i ain’t notice he was about to bite that chick laying on her back..ha ha! anyway….when yall do the remix he gotta say something about Jasmine Sullivan…..And them titties, lol.

  50. This song is what turned me on to Johnta. Then I found out that he wrote some of my soon to be classic favorites…

  51. This is my song, I was pissed when I didn’t get another song.I can’t lie I went and downloaded that shit, SOrry I was in COLLEGE….

  52. Yo JOHNTA I just wanted you to know that this is one of my favorite songs and I’m a fan of your work…and thanks for making me aware of something…..I wash my hands now before and after I take piss….

    Peace
    Marley

  53. I like johnta’s Ocean Drive material. That shit should just be dropped on bootleg so I can have it in my ipod. Cause IDK whooooooooooooooo he was besides being a writer until The Most Access had a fucking Johnta STAN and I googled that ass.

    He got my vote… I’ll buy his shit… anything now.

  54. I remember the first time I saw this video. I was in my dorm room, freshman year, late to class….. All because I was in AWE!

  55. this song i reminiscent of early usher (my way) and “this evening” reminded me of trey songz….not to say that johnta is bitting der style but maybe he been writin 4 dem b4 they were ocean’s members?! either way they all talented dudes and cnt wait 4 da albums 4m dem all…just be sure to release dem in the UK 2…we like gd music across the atlantic!

  56. Mind over matter

  57. http://www.b-aa-d.com check this site out

  58. I remember when this came out. I was doing college radio and I had to be a sophmore. I played it on my college station.

  59. damn i knew so so def could hold it’s own so so def do not need no secondary label. I love the video yeah b cox alwayz doing his thang i dont know johnta yet neva met him but he iz making his way

  63. JD i agree wit you to an exstant. this is to the comment about the partying and people not dancing. i fucks wit you so this is no hate mail. but my nigg you have to lead by example. you of all people who come from the dance era ( i wish i could plog the whodeni video) should be in the mix dancing to set that shit off. in the white clubs you fuck wit them, you party wit them. the black club is all about dick riddin now!!!

  64. Lovin it!!! Turn it Up, Turn it up!!

  65. It’s funny this is one my jams. I never knew this was Johnta though. I missed that completely. Something else to add to the MP3. Keep them coming baby. **Missy B**

  66. WOW i didnt even kno this was johnta i love this song

  67. Yo whatup ya’ll…I just wanted to say that I appreciate all of the love on this video and the record. I know a lot of ya’ll have heard these songs elsewhere but I promise we have new fire coming soon. Still, its nice that ya’ll appreciate some of my early stuff. Thank you!

  68. Yo I was 16 when I first heard this song and I kept trying to put my friends on Johnta and none of them were trying to hear it but after they heard this song they hopped on board. So Johnta keep doing your thing man we are listening and cant wait for the album to finally drop.

  69. @Swats2812: Can’t Wait 😉

  70. Man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  71. Yessir… The Boy Johnta smoked this one… And he wasn’t even trying hard.. lol.. OCEANS & GO!

  75. Oooh i like!!! Nice!!

  76. MANYE I LOVE THIS SONG YOU ALL….i just but it on a new mix last week……when are we going to get that cd…..SIR?????

  77. I couldn’t resist: ‘I think Johnta was singing about his “Jack Daniels” in this video”

    LOL Sorry…not!!

  78. But love the Luther Sample of “Superstar/ Until You Come Back to Me” Ha Ha!! I know my Music!!

  79. Watching BET J at night before bed and the “Turn It Up” video comes on….as you can say the rest is history. Been a fan of Johnta “Sinatra” Austin since the video first came out.

    So please UPDATE his offical website and myspace. G14 website is giving him a buzz and the people need to know who Johnta is!! Especially if he keeps dropping the weekly treats. Johnta PR peeps aren’t on their game.

    Hey like the song say…”Yall wanna floss with us? All across that board we burning up. And all I ask for you to do is turn it, turn it up”

  80. number one listen to song on my ipod also Jd great sample was looking forward to Ocean drive.

  81. UMMM MADD LATE!!! I love this song and have been a Johnta fan since way back. I turned so many people on to him cuz I knew he was the truth. This song stays in the rotation. hahaa 🙂

  82. i don’t like how he changed the lyrics from “word to jamie cus we’re getting unpredictable” lol i got used to saying that line and i still do sometimes bc it fits in right to me

  83. this was my shit….

  84. ehh im not sold yet but its a good song.. but minus the rapping next time

  85. i liked the background adlibs too with the echoing & what not

  86. This song is ridiculous….I don’t know how this shit didn’t pop….I know it’s like 2 or 3 years old now but I hope it still makes the album….

  87. HMMMMM……. is it just me or does Johnta sound like Usher? Nayyyy!!!! Maybe it’s just me. Luv the music though!!!

  88. cum on man dis classic shit , how could u b a lifer or a oceans fan a not kno johnta 1st single which was a banger , dey sleepin on him

  89. you should post dope fiend.. that’s the first song i ever heard from Johnta and i’ve been a fan since then. It’s one of my favorite songs

  90. this song is the business

  91. man i luv this video man……i b bumpin this shit everytime i get into n r&b mood…….jus right for sum late nite lovin n whatnot…….lol, but hey can’t wait for the album 2 drop man. johnta keep doin ya thing, cox keep doin ya thing, and JD you r hot on the tracks now my nigga n keep on puttin them hits out. and man i luv y’all on livin the life…….y’all is fuckin hilarious man. i watch that shit every day and it keeps on gettin funnier everyday.
