One of the most successful songs of all-time, Mariah Carey‘s 2005 hit ‘We Belong Together’ is undoubtedly a classic. Hence, it was only fitting that one R&B’s most revered voices – in the form of Joe – was picked to perform the song at last night’s BMI Urban Awards.
Watch as Carey’s ‘Thank God I Found You’ comrade soars like only he can below…
Near flawless.
A spectacularly difficult song to sing, Joe nailed it with finesse. The belting and runs after the bridge? Absolutely epic.
That said, watching this has us a little ticked off that so few R&B males today are in the business of “sanging”. The incredible Luke James aside, who else is flexing pipes like this in today’s day and age? Here’s hoping last night served as an inspiration to the artists in attendance to “do better, be better”.

Hes Soo Dope.. I got some much respect for Joe!!
Mariah seriously should consider joining Celine at Vegas !!!!!
#HappyRetirement
🙁
First of all, Celine pulled in Millions in Vegas so lets get that out of the way. Secondly, Mariah will never retire. Just deal with it, okay? Oh and how is Gaga doing btw?
You´re a joke!
First of all Mariah and Celine are very different. Second you, your family and all your favs wish they could have such a “retirement” cos Celine has been in the top 10 of biggest money makers for like the past 10 years, each and every year of that decade, since she started in Vegas… cos She Decided it, nobody retired her. She also did awesome with her world wide tour in 2008-2009
If u are a Gaga fan I´m actually sorry for her. I appreciate the girl
Wow this man Joe has changed. Didn´t see his face since the Thank God I found You days in 2000 with diva Mariah
He did such a good job
Wonderfully Done! This is one of my favorite songs and another hard song by Mariah to cover. 🙂
Damn I haven’t seen and heard from him in a minute he did so good miss him
Yes. He did a spectacular job. Not too many guys are SANGIN these days. We need more of this in today’s music.
the youngins need to remember that Joe will do all the things ya man WON’T do.. u hear me?!!!!!!!!!!!!! yess Legend!
his tone in his upper register is like WHOA!
i think even mrs. mimi would be hard pressed to pull this song at this level.
impressive.
Not at all…
Sam, your style of writing is a t***.
He sounded great…. We belong together is my song ….. *Cries and googles Kelsnetwork*
SAAAANG Joe! Yes!
now thats what i call talent!!! this makes me realise how much there are few really talented singers today !! he wowed me!! QUEEN mariah has so many great songs, and if you can’t REALLY sing, don’t even try to touch it!!!
Love Love Love Joe… I have seen him in concert many times… He is amazing… Mariah couldn’t ask for a better people to sing this Beautiful song. Happy “tears” :”””’)
This is the right song for him, this is also one of the best songs of 2000’s.
Joe, you sung the H**L out of that song! Love his rendition…hits replay:-)
I like joe but this was just ok…I don’t get the hype. He was in the same octave the whole time except the last “who” part. Cool I guess though.
Joe is very talented…
I don’t see it. I swear some of you(majority) must not support your local artist such as plays,underground stars,churches. Etc.
Because what you guys consider great vocals never are. This is an example of a decent cover nothing more….joe did ok….not great or amazing
Joe and Fanny are the true definition of REAL SINGERS.
No acts, distractions, phony charade, etc. It is just them, and their voices each time and that is how it should be.
Mariah could stand to take a few notes.
lol what you just described is everything that Britney Spears is NOT. Mariah got famous for her talent and remained famous/successful because of her talent not for gimmicks. Its funny you took the time to write this when you clearly stan for Britney “no talent” Spears lol. Mariah relies on her voice for tours/performances not on clothes and gimmicky stuff. Good day 🙂
Slayed! I’ve always adored him!
Yes!
Loved his outfit. He looked very sharp.
Get it Joe! 🙂
WOW!! Joe man, forgot how talented this man is!!
His vocals, damn near better then Ne-Yo >> Dudes got soul.

AMEN!!
I love his voice so much! Really love his song “Almost There.”
HONEY JOE IS THE MAN THIS WS FLAWLESS, HE & TYRESE & TANK ARE SOME UNDER RATED SANGIN BROTHAS!!!
Joe … **sigh**. Still sounds flawless.
You need to do a comeback tour or something. R&B misses you. Hell, **I** miss you!
The Things Your Man Won’t Do is still on constant replay on my iPod.
