[Chorus]
Too hot, she's hot, melt, sex, too hot
Too hot, she's hot, gets all of that
Too hot, she's hot, that's a fact
Too hot, she's hot, that's that

[Verse 1]
You can see it in her eyes, baby got that fire
Pretty face like Lauren, body like mine
I hit her with the stud pass and I'ma ride it
Hit her good, have her screamin' high notes like Mariah
Hold up, and watch her shut it down, say watch her shut it down
These other hoes know they gotta go when she come around
Say my name, say my name so I know it's me
You got a nigga feenin' like Jodeci, turn up

[Pre-Chorus]
All my niggas know, when she hits the floor
That she steals the show
All my niggas know, when she hits the door
That girl has to go

[Chorus]
Too hot, she's hot, melt, sex, too hot
Too hot, she's hot, gets all of that
Too hot, she's hot, that's a fact
Too hot, she's hot, that's that

[Verse 2]
I'll tell you what, she burns it up
Every day and night, yeah when we cut
Gon' need a hose, a fire truck
You know she's ready and she's just ready enough

[Refrain]
We blaze it up, we burns it down
Her body hot, I cool it down
She drives her car and cruise the town
And all you hood rats gonna hate on her now

[Pre-Chorus]
All my niggas know, when she hits the floor
That she steals the show
All my niggas know, when she hits the door
That girl has to go

[Chorus]
Too hot, she's hot, melt, sex, too hot
Too hot, she's hot, gets all of that
Too hot, she's hot, that's a fact
Too hot, she's hot, that's that

[Verse 3]
I say baby you a bad bitch, excuse my language
And girl that dress so tight, lookin' like it's painted
The way your body move, it make a nigga pass out
Now baby drop to the floor and poke that ass out
I say them heels got them legs lookin' fire, baby
And if I say you weren't the truth, I'd be a liar, baby
Got me thinkin' to myself, I love the way you walk
I love that little attitude and the way you talk
Now picture me and you headed back to my house on the hill
Lookin' at the moon while you tell me how you feel
Cause you know we gotta keep it on the low with everything we do
But everything is good when it's me and you

[Refrain]
We blaze it up, we burns it down
Her body hot, I cool it down
She drives her car and cruise the town
And all you hood rats gonna hate on her now

[Chorus]
Too hot, she's hot, melt, sex, too hot
Too hot, she's hot, gets all of that
Too hot, she's hot, that's a fact
Too hot, she's hot, that's that

Started in 1983, Jodeci is comprised of two sets of brothers—Cedric and Joel Hailey (also known as K-Ci and JoJo) and Donald and Dalvin Degrate (also known as DeVante Swing and Mr. Dalvin). Jodeci were once known as the “bad boys of R&B,” notable particularly because they were actually boys at the time, breaking out as teenagers in 1991 with their debut album and its title ballad, “Forever My Lady.” Natives of North Carolina, they were discovered by Heavy D, who overheard their demo when an A&R at Uptown was in the process of passing on them. Heavy D introduced Jodeci to Uptown founder Andre Harrell, who signed them after they sang in his office, and handed them off to his then-protégé Puff Daddy, who outfitted the group in dark shades and coordinating leather ensembles. The look, along with the streetwise soul found in songs like “Cry 4 U” and “Feenin” (as well as a few run-ins with the law) made them the antithesis to good-guy personas of then-peaking R&B superstars Boyz II Men. Devante, who along with Mr. Dalvin held down production duties for the group, founded the Swing Mob, a collective responsible for the discovery of musical geniuses like Timbaland, Missy Elliott, and Static Major. As a group, Jodeci would go on to release three critically-acclaimed album in the ‘90s, before disappearing from the limelight. K-Ci and JoJo splintered off as a duo in 1997, producing hit single “All My Life” and, eventually, five albums, but adoring fans never let go of their Jodeci obsession. In March, the group released The Past, The Present, The Future, the first Jodeci album in two decades. Jodeci, if y'all reading this, where’d you go?
