    Man I have never heard that song!! So what happened to it? Def Jam wouldn’t put it out? Nice usage of Luther. Whats the deal on this record? I was clowning dude 3 days ago but I see he got some heat. What did Reid say about the record?? Dude has a very mature sound, that’s what the game is looking for. Mature with just a touch of Swag..

    I’m confused>>>*&^(*&^#$

    I like the record…..

    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 :D

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

  30. 30 Mar 09, 2:24pm

    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

    i think 1st time i see this vedio

  36. WHAT WHAT says
    30 Mar 09, 3:25pm

    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. SPOCK says
    30 Mar 09, 3:28pm

    @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

    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.

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.

    30 Mar 09, 5:12pm

    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. =)

    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!

  49. 30 Mar 09, 7:52pm

    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. 30 Mar 09, 8:00pm

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