THE TRUTH: Jodeci Get the Blame For Wembley Shame

23rd March at Wembley Arena in London, a time machine was put on stage and 11,000 people were transported back to the 90's. The music was fantastic, the vibe was electric and nostalgic. The hosts Eddie Kadi and Choice FM's Jigs were impeccable - a real testament to British entertainment.

If you didn't go you'll also hear about the great disappointment which was the long-awaited, much anticipated arrival of Jodeci. They came on stage to rapturous applause which turned into open-mouthed shock as one of the members simply fell off the stage, arse first... ouch!

There was no real structure or togetherness about them, there was almost an element of 'We're Jodeci, this is what you're here for, you'll love us regardless of our efforts'. What they didn't realise was that the acts before them put in the most stunning performance of their lives; and made it a night to remember.

Many took to Twitter and other social media to mock, as the British love to do, the failings of the once dominant R&B group. People left in their droves and booed on their way out to head to the tube at around 23:45.

I took to Twitter to simply ask KCI & JoJo to sort out whatever issues they have for the fans' sake.

I feel like it is important that all of the disappointed and heartbroken people are aware that there is possible more than meets the eye with this story. Excuse the pun but, one needs to see the bigger picture to understand that its very easy to turn all tabloid and start labelling the group has-beens and crackheads. People often find the crash of a giant more entertaining than it's stability. Humans love to break down something they helped build a long time ago, it's a part of our nature to play God but on this occassion, there were other factors at play. I certainly feel a lot better about the situation than I did immediately afterwards. It's up to you, you pay your money you make your opinion - How Do You Want It?
