Jhene is telling the pressures of juggling friendships, love life, motherhood, being a celebrity and finding her peace. But also remember that it’s ok to cut off fake/dramatic friends, toxic relationships, take a break from your children here and there, and being alone in the spotlight. After all if you can’t love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love yourself? Now can I get an amen up in here??? 🙏🏾
I smoke my spliff and get high, listening to this angel who had saved me from suicide and I fall in love with her spirit more and more each day.....us EMPATHS feel this so much
Me too. Especially this past yr with this whole covid. Really felt i would end it all times. The spiritual warfare we are in is scary but listening to her music at times made me feel i wasnt alone and the way i feel about life
Pay attention to the signs. Stay and listen and you will fine everything ain't rocket science every gem is not a diamond...man I love that part soo much.
michael syme um who tf is you sir. U make this how ever u want. All I said is that it's my favorite part. Like that not a big ass deal. and i know what this song mean and I love this song. It's one of my favorites by her, but you taking what I said and threw that shit out of proportion.
yes but also the general ideal that just because something or someone seems like the best high quality thing to happen to u but it may not it can be smoke n mirrors
BrOwN3yer0$eBUD Bitch I didn't say that to be or sound cool. If I have to state something I will say it. I'm not gonna stop myself for that. I don't speak for you people I speak for me. The fuck?
when you feel it going through your viens , just pumping in and out of sanity , go through the madness to conquer what makes you go mad , cause you know what the pressure is boiling up to a degree that doesn't intrigue or match up to be . . . . . ajlc
I love that her videos represent the song i clearly saw the message here... the pressures of being famous...of having a normal relationship while being in the industry...having to miss out on important family occasions (her daughter bday party) to attend awards and other shit what seems irrelevant to her...the pressure of being an artist and a woman. LOVE IT!
Been going through some crazy self realisations and a major spiritual awakening this year, your music has helped me gain a calmer view on life... if that makes sense. You are incredible girl.
Jhene Aiko I been listening to you since I was 13, 23 now. And you made me forget all of what I was/am going thru thank you , you Inspire me into finding my inner peace
Why is it that all the results of black people mating with people from other ethnicies are so beautiful? Seriously nearly all mixed people are incredibly beautiful. Jhené as well, being half asian half black. It's as if nature WANTS us all to interbreed instead of mating with people with the same ethnicies as us!
Rhino Black Honestly, what are you even rambling on about? Everyone of any race can be beautiful. I'm just saying statistically speaking i see more mixed beautiful people than beautiful people from any other race. And i added maybe nature wants us to interbreed because pretty people have better chances of breeding, so maybe nature wants mixed people.
Rhino Black How do you keep twisting my words? Shit! All good nice and intelligent people should breed if they want to, i just said naturally pretty people have a better chance at it! Ugly people hardly get any sex right, because no one wants them right? Well pretty people get it all the time. Its the same with other animals.
Enheritance Dorrico 7st, I am a very long, long story short. . 04 I have been 700 I have been a long day at a very long 8th St Paul McCartney I am not a good
Why are people hating on her style and choice of videos?? I thought freedom of speech and expression was acceptable in this day and age. I like the video and I understand the concept of it. I don't think she cares about making hits or getting on the charts, as long as she's happy with her choices then that's all that matters. I can't wait for her CD to come out. I know it's filled with great songs that I can vibe to and have hits that'll top her other ones probably.
Thats all this generation about sells and who can chart the highest, thats why all this bullshit ass music is charting cause ppl dont take the time to understand real art and the vision for it. If they dont hear a nice beat or see naked ass , they don't care.
In today's music industry, album sales are obsolete and irrelevant. Jhene will make all of her money off touring. Album sales mean nothing. She has achieved mainstream popularity yet, she is still independent in terms of creative control. She knows what she is doing.
musiconcloud17 I know that's why she's my favorite singer. She's smart and very intelligent about her music and how she goes about with marketing. I love her style and her songs. I don't know why most artists aren't like her. I think she's going to be a very good influence to other artists in the industry. at least I hope so. I know her tours are going to be amazing, and I can't wait for them though.
Reading the comments smh.. For one , yall dont know who Jhene really is. Some of yall started tagging along since the worse but Jhene real! She don't care for high price videos and all that bullshit. Its just her and the ppl thats been around her every since sailing souls. You dont have to have a high budget video if your music speak for itself. Every artist don't have to disrespect themselves just for views man. She have her best friend in the video and her daughter . Keep it Jhene, I know your vision and what you're doin wit your art, keep it up!
My favorite line of this song is when she says "Well it's really out of my control, the way you feel is not my problem". That is exactly how I feel a lot of the time!! Jhene Aiko is amazing and I have loved her since her 2011 sailing souls mixtape.
People, her look in this video is called "Faux Dreads", it's an Afrocentric hairstyle look. It matches her personality and mood of the song. That's why she looks like that, to make an African Spiritual setting. Don't be so Ignorant. She's a great artist and makes beautiful music.
Been on this since 2014 when I was 15. Turning 21 in a few weeks and now I not only lose myself in her voice but truly understand what's she singing about. #sisterPisces
Jhene is the epitome of "zen". I love her peaceful spirit, it is so inspiring. I wish i had that kind of presence. herr music just makes you feel so at peace with everything.
Tadahsi Sun I always fall in love with pisces, but damn, so damn stubborn and living in a bubble. It's really hard to get a pisces to let you in. Clouded in mystery, still i love it
KeesusChrist She's actually been around for almost 13 years. She was signed to the same management as B2K back in the day and featured on some of their songs. She was supposed to release her debut album back in 2003, but it got shelved.
This song helped me during a domestic violence relationship when I was 18 and he's also my child's father. Me and him always argued and never could get on the right track . " you are such a lyer , I never denied u I was 4sho " he use to deny me in front of ppl ... he's dead now and I see he was placed in my life to make me who I am today . Thank you for this beautiful song
I remember laying in a twin size bed, falling asleep in my work clothes listening to this, going to college and working with a 4 year old. I remember watching this video and singing this over and over before falling asleep just to get up again in 3 hours. Being just exhausted. The videos for surrender and love have me going down a jhene rabbit hole rn lol.
Lol reading the comments you can tell it's ppl that only know her for "the worst" or "from time" that are complaining only true jhene fans understand her creativity she gives 0 fucks :)
The Reason I've Been Captivated By Miss Jhene' Aiko For The Past 10 Years Is Because She Has An Unwillingness To Give Into THE PRESSURE (No Pun Intended) Of Mainstream Society & Music... She Has Always Stayed True To Herself & Her Craft... Doing What She Loves & Never Selling Out... This Woman Is The True Definition Of An ARTIST & A HUSTLER!!! YOU CAN KEEP YOUR MANUFACTURED, ONLY HOT IN THE STUDIO CAUSE IT WAS MADE FOR THE CLUB MUSIC I'LL Continue To Support Miss Jhene' Aiko & Other Artist Like Her ♡
I like listening to the The Weeknd, I finally found someone who makes music little bit like him, but a female. It's cool to see the female's side to the story. We all know The Weeknd story for those who are XO :D
