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.
Still Waiting
K-Ci & JoJo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's Devante with the Hailey bros.
Waitin on you baby
You know what I'm saying
It is been a long time
They still waiting
Still waiting to get it on
Coming straight from the dirty south
I'm telling you something,
Girl you should listen.
I'm making an offer,
But it's your decision.
The choice is yours,
It's all up to you.
So don't be a fool,
You know who to choose, girl.
Every time I see you walking by,
With the other guy,
I just wonder why
Can't that be I,
Kissing your lips and rubbing your thighs,
Waking up every morning by your side.
Tell me why I'm still waiting for you,
To come fell ecstasy,
On my knees,
Check my stees,
Let me knock it with ease.
I'm still waiting for the day,
When I can fill his space,
When I can take his place,
You can fill my face all around you, girl,
Uh-huh
I'm dreaming about you,
Scheming to catch you,
Been meaning to tell you,
I'm feening to smell you.
It's nothing that you said,
It's nothing that you did,
It's just the way you are,
Girl you flip my lid.
The lyrics to K-Ci & JoJo's song Still Waiting revolve around a man who is waiting for a woman to choose him over another man.

The man is captivated by the woman and dreams of being with her, but he is still waiting for her to choose him so they can be together and fulfill their sexual desires.
Throughout the song, the man expresses his frustration and longing to be with the woman. He is envious of the other man she is with and wonders why she doesn't choose him instead. The man dreams of being intimate with the woman, kissing her and waking up every morning by her side.
In the chorus of the song, the man pleads with the woman to choose him and fulfill their sexual desires together. He is still waiting for the day when he can fill the other man's space and take his place in the woman's life. The lyrics express the man's desperation to be with the woman and his hopes that one day she will choose him.
