Wingo was a late addition to the group, added after Kandi Burruss of Xscape recommended he be added. Kandi was also the one who brought the group to the attention of Dupri. The group, with a style similar to New Edition, Jodeci, and Dru Hill, has had a number of hit singles, many of which are produced by Dupri.
Identical twin brothers Brian Casey and Brandon Casey, Kyle Norman, and Richard Wingo--known collectively as Jagged Edge--have built the group's career and reputation from one simple premise: make great music and make sure the music's for real.
2) A melodic rock band, Jagged Edge UK featuring guitarist Myke Gray. Released their debut EP, Trouble in early 1990, followed by the full-length Fuel For Your Soul .
3) Drum & Bass collaboration of Optical & Ryme Tyme from the United Kingdom

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Chorus
you've changed
you're not the girl that used to do things
the way i like it
its a damn shame
cause you was on yo way to the house, the money, the keys to the range
so what's the dillio
shorty, won't you tell me so i really know
if you got plans to be with me
why'd you flip the script on me
i need to know that you're the one i can take around the worl
so tell me, tell me, tell me baby why you've changed...
chorus x2
verse 2
i know you're feelin low
i know you're thinkin' bout' the things that you let go
i know you're mad(but i'm)i'm kinda glad cause i took what you had and you still let it go to wast
baby now i know i'm happy
i lost what i thought was close to me
i should have known that you're not right for me
chorus x2
bridge
i can't believe
just how bad i had it
then you turned around and changed the game on me
now that i see you and me aren't working, not working
J.D.
all i remember was a relationship that was tight and strong
please, i need you to tell me where it all went wrong
now was it my friends or your friends or was ot the fact
that you recieved the jag when you wanted the benz
you think i'm crazy, but i seen hang ups like that
i mean, somethin' made you change up like that
i used to bang out the backs so
no way in hell
and i kept you in the stacks
so i know good and well
you never missed a meal and got everything you dreamed
had me like it's for real
bout' to jump you aring
white 10 carrots and nothing but bling bling
and the right to tell me not to kick the scene
you wanna give that up?
what is it
do i work too much
did the playa just loose his touch
i mean it can't be that , i'm still shootin out things
i thought you was the one
but damn, you've changed
chorus till fade
In “Keys to The Range”, Jagged Edge sings about a girl who has changed into someone completely different from the person she used to be. The song starts with a humming of tune and a question: “What happened to the girl I used to know?” The song is about the singer's confusion and frustration about the changes and transformation he sees in the girl he has been with. He no longer sees the qualities he fell in love with, and he feels disappointed because she was his hope for a better life; a life with the house, money, and keys to the range. In the second verse, he expresses that he understands that she may be unhappy, but he's glad that it ended sooner instead of later. He concludes by stating that he can't believe that he fell for her and that she's no longer his ideal match. The bridge of the song acknowledges that their relationship did not work out, and the chorus keeps repeating that she has changed from the woman he thought he knew.
The song has a relatable theme of changes in a relationship that many can understand. Relationships often have unexpected changes, some good and some bad, and changes like these can be challenging to navigate. The singer's frustration, disappointment, and confusion are emotions that anyone in a similar situation can relate to. The chorus that repeats the line, "you've changed," reinforces the idea that the person they once knew no longer exists.

I just can’t get this song out of my head today since I watched the movie “In too deep”. Jagged edge was such an underrated group. This was real R&B music here.
