Editor's note

K-Ci and JoJo's soulful brother harmonies

The Hailey brothers moved from Jodeci to their own string of R&B ballads.

For the full picture, you need both "All My Life" and something earlier like "Say Yes." That's the range.

Their 2000 single "All My Life" became the kind of slow jam that defines a moment, topping R&B charts and sticking around on playlists for years. That song, along with others like "Don't Rush (Take Love Slowly)," showed how they could take the vocal style they helped shape in Jodeci and build a whole second act around it. They kept that sound going through the 2000s on albums like "X" and "Emotional," working with people like Mariah Carey along the way.

They first got attention in the early '90s as part of Jodeci with their cousin DeVante Swing. After leaving the group in 1996, they put out their debut "Love Always" the next year and kept releasing albums through the 2000s. They came back in 2013 with "My Brother's Keeper" after a break that included JoJo serving a short prison sentence.

Archive material and source history

K-Ci and JoJo are brothers Cedric "K-Ci" Hailey and Joel "JoJo" Hailey. They first gained attention in the early 1990s as part of Jodeci, the R&B group formed with their cousin DeVante Swing. After leaving Jodeci in 1996, they released their debut album "Love Always" the following year.

Their 2000 single "All My Life" became their biggest hit, reaching the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topping the R&B charts. Other songs like "Don't Rush (Take Love Slowly)" and "I Care About You" continued their run of soulful ballads.

They released several albums through the 2000s including "X," "Emotional," and "It's Me." Their music stayed within the R&B tradition they helped establish with Jodeci, built around their close vocal harmonies and romantic themes. They worked with artists like Mariah Carey and Mary J. Blige during this period.

In 2009, JoJo served six months in prison on marijuana charges. The duo returned with the album "My Brother's Keeper" in 2013. Their songs, particularly "All My Life," remain fixtures on R&B playlists.
