Though Jodeci fans can expect to see the original lineup of DeVante Swing, Mr. Dalvin, K-Ci, and JoJo, one person they won’t see is rapper 2 Chainz — despite his earnest pleas to become the fifth member of the legendary R&B group.

On March 24, the Dope Don’t Sell Itself rapper was hanging out at home when he decided to cue up Jodeci’s timeless 1995 hit “Freek’n You” on the Bluetooth speakers. Tity Boi began singing along to the song while recording himself on his phone, but little did he know there was someone in his home watching him.

“I wake up feeling so horny, I can’t get you out of my mind, cause sexing you be all I see, I would give anything,” 2 Chainz sang before turning around and catching the person recording him.

In a hilarious moment of quick thinking, the rapper ran into his bedroom and slammed the door behind him as if he was embarrassed. 2 Chainz shouldn’t feel too mortified, though, as BJ The Chicago Kid hopped in his Instagram comments section and offered a collaboration.

“I got a open verse for you,” BJ wrote with several crying laughing emojis. “All singin doe.”
