K-Ci and JoJo's first sign of independence came in 1994 when K-Ci covered Bobby Womack's hit "If You Think You're Lonely Now" for the movie Jason's Lyric. Early in 1996, K-Ci and Jo-Jo teamed up for the song "How Could You" for the movie Bulletproof starring Damon Wayans and Adam Sandler.
By July 1996, K-Ci and JoJo finally had a hit on their hands as guest artists in 2Pac's number-one R&B hit "How Do U Want It". It also topped the Billboard Hot 100. The brothers made their side projects into a full album, Love Always. Released on June 17, 1997, the album spawned two top-ten R&B hits: "You Bring Me Up" and "Last Night's Letter". "All My Life" was the number-one song on the Hot 100 for three weeks, a feat that K-Ci and Jo-Jo had never achieved with Jodeci.Love Always went on to sell four million copies, and the success of the album put Jodeci's reunion on hold indefinitely.
Their second album,It's Real,was released on June 22, 1999. It spawned one major hit "Tell Me It's Real" which peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard's R&B charts. K-Ci and Jo-Jo returned with X on December 5, 2000. "X", the Roman numeral for ten, was picked as the album title to celebrate the Haileys' tenth anniversary in the music business. They made a strong return to the Billboard Hot 100 early in 2001 with the song "Crazy", also included on the Save the Last Dance soundtrack. "Crazy" peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100.
The fourth K-Ci and Jo-Jo album, Emotional, was released on November 26, 2002, but failed to find commercial success. K-Ci and JoJo released a greatest hits album on February 8, 2005. They are believed to have teamed back up with DeVante Swing and Mr. Dalvin for a Jodeci reunion album.
About You Now
K-Ci & JoJo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I call your heart but there's no one at home
Taking a toll on my pride
I'm reaching out but there's no one inside
You know it doesn't feel right
When I look in your eyes
I know love is blind but the heart doesn't lie
I'll ask one more time
So tell me girl what's deep in your heart
Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you
Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you
I spend like all of my day, baby
Trying to sense out just how things got this way
I thought that we were in love
But I swear right now I don't know what you want, babe
I make sure that I give you quality time
But lately I feel you're not home by design
But still I'm gonna try to give you the love of my life
In hopes that you, that you will open up your heart, baby
Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you
Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you
Sometimes I'm not sure that
That I'm all you got
Sometimes I'm not sure you love me or not, baby
Just one thing that I'm certain of
Girl I care for you
And the one thing that I want is that you care for me too
Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you
Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,baby, babe, yeah
Yeah, oh yeah, ooooh
I care for you, babe
In the song "Crazy About U" by K-Ci & JoJo, the lyrics express a feeling of loneliness and hurt that comes from reaching out to someone you love but not getting a response. The singer is trying to connect with his partner but feels like he's being shut out. He acknowledges that love can be blind, but his heart knows that something is wrong. The lyrics suggest that the singer is putting in effort to show his love by giving quality time, but he feels like his partner is not reciprocating.
Throughout the song, the singer repeatedly expresses how much he cares about his partner and how he wants her to care for him just as much. He's unsure of where he stands in the relationship and what his partner's intentions are. This creates a sense of unease and uncertainty for the singer. Despite this, he's still willing to try and give her the love of his life, hoping that she'll open up her heart to him.
The repeated chorus of "Girl I care about you, I'm there for you. So why don't you care for me like I care about you" emphasizes the central theme of the song. The singer is trying to bridge the gap between his feelings and his partner's actions. The song's vulnerable and raw nature only adds to its emotional impact, making it a timeless classic in the R&B genre.
