Probably the male version of Xscape. I loved them though because they always stayed true to R&B. Never tried to venture out. They are a weird group to place because they have timeless classics like Lets Get Married, Promise, Gotta Be, Walked Outta Heaven but the overall group never really took off. They had one really good album, maybe 2. Jagged Little Thrill was peak J.E to me. The entire album was great.

No dancing, no stage presence, good singing but not blow you away, another Jermaine Dupri success just like Xscape. Ironically enough, Xscape were the ones who discovered J.E and brought them to the attention of Dupri.

I'd give them a 7 off the strength of Lets Get Married and the remix.

5 and that's only because that goodbye track got me in my feelings once :mjcry:
Real talk. That song came out when I was in middle school and I use to sing my heart out to that track not realizing when I hit my 20's, that same song would minister to my broken heart :wow:

"Tell me have you ever been in a situation where the best thing you could do was the hardest thing you ever done? But you try to do whats right".:wow:

One of the hardest opening verses to a song I'd ever heard.
"I don't ever wanna say goodbye. Looking out the window just wondering why; did we have to say those things that we said last night":mjcry:

I feel like JD wrote better songs for Xscape with all of the members getting leads and parts. Their voices complimented each other well. However as much as I appreciate the talent of Xscape, they do not have a song equal to the timelessness of Let's Get Married.

Think about it

Even the 5 stair steps (O-o-h Child) couldn’t do more than that ...
