Jodeci is celebrating the 30th anniversary of their classic album, *The Show, The Afterparty, The Hotel*, with a collection of remastered videos now available on YouTube. Fans can enjoy hits like “Love U 4 Life,” “Come & Talk To Me,” “Feenin’,” “Stay,” and “Let’s Go Through The Motions.”
The video for “Love U 4 Life,” a popular wedding anthem, features a beautiful wedding scene mixed with shots of the group performing in matching white suits against a night skyline. The “Stay” video also showcases the group in all-white outfits, focusing on their performance with a strong 90s vibe.
“Come & Talk To Me” has two videos: one for the original mix and another for the hip-hop remix. The original is simple like “Stay,” while the remix features a fun poolside setup with stylish love interests and oversized 90s landline phones. The video for “Feenin’” is the most creative, starting with a skit and moving into dream sequences of the members in a mental institution, feeling lovesick.
Jodeci made a big impact on R&B by adding a hard edge to the genre. They were known for their raw, sexual lyrics and a hip-hop style that included baseball caps, sports jerseys, and military boots. This look helped them stand out as the “bad boys of R&B,” contrasting with smoother groups like Boyz II Men.
To mark the anniversary, the album is being repressed on vinyl for the first time since its original release. The 2LP black vinyl comes in a jacket that matches the original tracklist. Fans can order Jodeci’s *The Show, The Afterparty, The Hotel* on vinyl now.
