From his rendition of Michael Jackson‘s ‘Dirty Diana,’ Ella Mai‘s ‘Trip’ and Soul For Real‘s ‘Candy Rain’ to recently butchering adding his personal touch to Donny Hathaway‘s time-honored holiday cut, ‘This Christmas,’ self-proclaimed ‘R&B King’ Jacquees has earned quite the reputation for his many covers – a royal pain to a number of R&B music lovers.
And, because not even the Wheel of Fortune has gifted its contestants the numbers of vowels he characteristically includes in said remixes, the 24-year-old’s Christmas 2018 was interrupted with news that there is a petition to stop him from assaulting listeners adding his incessant eee’s to some of the genre’s most beloved tunes.
Details inside:
Taking to Change.org, a concerned music lover started a petition to ensure Jacquees – born Rodriquez Jacquees Broadnax – is no longer able to add his spin to any song he did not create. Created just 4 days ago with a goal of 10,000 signatures, the order has garnered a whopping 11,500 signatures (as of time reported).
Ouch! That number was increased after fans got wind of his version of Chris Brown‘s ‘This Christmas’ (which can be seen above). Poor Jacquees.

I mean if he was on key ?, wouldn’t mind he stays FLAT!!
This man is YOung and has every right to be cocky! He is teachable and will learn as he goes along! Give this young black man some time people… He has Talent but he just needs a little refining
Yall leave him alone! Time is struggling!
Lol. Looking mighty foolish out here man smh! Not a good look.
This Needs to End now !!
He needs to stop making music all together .. he’s no king
Stop remixing them people sing if they did asked you
Just make your own music
When he said he’s the king r&b that was the moment i’m done with him
Let me sign this real quick
We have all the evidence we need right here!

It’s sad that only black people do this to our own people. We hope to move forward but, instead of building each other up by developing our own talent and sharpening their tools via mentorship, we rather ridicule, criticize and shame our brothers. It’s about to be 2019 in a few days and we’re still doing the same old crap. We must stop!
Seriously? You need to get out more if you think this even slightly compares to how EVIL Whites are to their own.
Oh come on, white people bash their celebrities all the time as well. They love to watch them fall.
But whatever jacqueeeeeee is so annoying with his behavior. His voice is ok, but he looks dirty and is annoying as f***. To become a king, people have to actually like you.
I’m looking at the bigger picture. I really could care less about this singer, he doesn’t do it for me and needs time to grow. Yes, white people bash each other all the time, but they know how to stick together and accomplish bigger picture goals. In the black community, there’s no room to do both. We all have to work extra hard just to be great and if we push one back, we all go back. That’s what I’m saying here
White people know how to stick together where? It’s every man for himself in the white community. Did you grow up around white people, or are you basing your views off of television? LOL
Sooooo, who should mentor him? Keith Sweat maybe? You can’t be disrespectful and then expect people to bend over backwards to help you….. Humble thy self little dude!
Yeah, he was talking crazy! ??
Your right, he should expect to recieve the benefits of brotherhood after his comments. However, it’s the higher road brothers should take to help propel the culture further. A mentorship or guidance with some media training from a Vet would be beneficial. I feel strong about this because he’s the only name in R&B rolling off everyone’s tongue right now…so, if it’s he wrong thing, somebody that can connect with him, should help him be great, so RnB stays great and not mirrror the downfall of Hip Hop or this trap era we are in hosted by mumble rappers with generic choppy flows.
Man shut the hell up we not tryn here that as a black community we would like to trade this n**** to a different race lmao dave Chappell voice!!!!
??♂️ ?
I know it really is sad. This is why black people cant stick together bc we can’t trust each other. Black peoples come up wit their own agenda smh freaking fools. This is a setback
Bye.
Exactly you dont like the man just move the f*** on easy dont listen. Black tearing each other down
Why is you making this about race!? Its not about the color of his skin but the fact that he’s not all that talented & he’s going around being very cocky thinking he’s the king of r&b. He’s young with no respect for the music industry. Disrespecting someone (keith sweat) that can mentor his immature off key voice.
Ummm why are you assuming that only black folks are voting on this poll? Although i do agree with you though. I say let this young black man who has never been to prison Shine and make his coins! LEAVE him to his artistry! He has room to grow as he is YOUNG
His only song “You”was ight..but to call yourself the king of R&B made people take a better listen and he is not that great..there are certain songs you cant touch and Stevie wonder songs are one of them.Jaqueese is not humble nor original
I want him to STFU ? he is F-ing up every remix he attempts … He is nothing but the King of bad Karoke !!! #Clown
HE NEED TO DO HIS OWN MUSIC STOP DOING PEOPLE SONGS OVER
Yes he needs to quit whole he is ahead
There have got to be more important real life matters going on more relevant than this…ppl need to take all this energy and demand for change into something worthy and that matters…like poverty, bullying, racism….real life concerns…you don’t like the music… I’m sure no one is forcing you to listen…ppl kill me with this type of bs
????????????
And they can do all of that AND have a sense of humorvat the same time.
I’m just here to sign the petition.
F*** up yo own music whatever that is…
I prefer him to leave well enough alone. Not all covers are meant to be made.
Eeeeee
@Leandra.. – haahahaha….hehehehehe
He’s a SIGNED recording artist who still depends on covers and remixes. The “Trip” fiasco left a sour taste in my mouth. He’s not talented enough to be so cocky. Actually he’s not talented at all. He has no vocal talent.
You should make your own music… you will never be good as Michael Jackson or anyone else…. Lawddddd ?♀️
PLEASE STOP HIM!!!
He just needs to stop??♀️
He must be stopped, immediately. He can’t sing, can’t hold a note. And that eeee eee is annoying as hell.
Dude stole chris browns …this Christmas song…jaquees can not sing…he sings out of his nose and it sounds horrible
Learn how to be humble before it be taken away within a split second last But not least how can you the king of RB but has never produced and original song ??????♀️??♀️
Thats Donny Hathaway’s not Chris Brown’s..j/s
The original is Donny but the version Jacquees was singing is Chris Brown
There is nothing wrong with being self assured. But the level of cockiness this no talent child has is ridiculous. The disrespect he displays for those that came before him is horrendous, and his ignorance is astonishing… (i.e. Jackie Robinson being an r&b influencer… not baseball… ok). Stop the madness.
Yes really he has annoyed my soul im tired of his short none dancing flat singing song steeling b*** he needs to be put in his place how u the king of r n b sweety u can’t get pass trey songs or Chris BRWON boy bye
I don’t think he should sing anything because he’s hurting R&B completely. To me personally he can’t sing without auto tune..
He sounds as if he’s yodeling. He can NOT SING in my opinion. I am a R&B lover and he butchers EVERY SONG HE REMAKES! Music IS NOT his passion.
Black people always hating on somebody
Leave people s*** alone!!
I don’t think he should be remixing anything he didn’t write, he don’t even have a number one record.
He needs to go and stop this foolishness before it goes to far
Idk about “King”, but I actually don’t mind his music at all. Just wish he would put more energy into developing his own content instead of these covers.
The moment he said he was the king of r&b was when my support went out the window. Stop remixing and make your own music.
This boy is not the king of anything but taking other people’s songs to make it his that’s not what kings do lol
I don’t even know who this is. For him to say king of r&b don’t you have to make original r&b songs? Not remixing and sampling other successful groups artists songs? I mean be original? Keith Sweat whom I love made his own music and hits. He can learn something from all the original r&b kings. Period.
The boy is flat like a flat chested lil girl, stick to his own stuff he might make it somewhere, King of R N B I Don’t think so.
You will never be the KING
How do I sign the petition?
YAll some haters…. he the s*** and sounds great at it… I’m a true and forever fan❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He need to be stopped he is very disrespectful
YES PLEASE HES OUTA CONTROL!!!
Classics should not be remixed get your own flow your own music
Just let it go ?
Who cares
This is hating on a whole nother level.
I agree with ??
Let the man continue to do what he loves. I’m not a fan but if I don’t want to hear his rendition I’m just not going to listen to it.
you not Chris Brown
He sucks and is clearly tone deaf
They mad ? cuz he does it better than them
He isn’t even the king of covers. Michael Bolton is.??. Move some units with your own original songs and you might make it to court jester of R&B. Oh sorry you’re already court jester.

Shut him up
Y’all hating a** mother fuckers need to leave that man alone and let him remix any f****** song his heart desires as long as he making money and he pays whoever he needs to pay to remix the songs then why the f*** are y’all hating on him for being able and sounding good remixing other people s*** what is it because he sounds better then the original artist who songs he remixes I bet if Beyonce or jay z remixed some f****** songs y’all wouldn’t be petitioning them y’all some f****** hating a** mother fuckers and the person who started this petiton had
nothing better else to do u need controversy so u go and start a petition towards this young black male rnb artist if it was me b**** n**** I would of called u and the rest of the petitioners out verbally but the one who started the petition we would of had to fade stop hating because this young man says he the king of rnb and hes getting money f*** a** haters f*** yall petition deez nuttz in my Bernie mack voice aka dolla bill
My question is why is he getting money? He has no skill. Lol Clean your ears out, homie.
Leave him df alone y’all ass can’t sing better so STFU!!!!
The more he remixes the flatter he gets. Stop, Drop, and Roll off the scene for some voice lessons. Poor Candy Rain cried
I agree he needs to stop remixing other people’s music and just focus on his on music. It’s getting a bit out of hand.
This is so sad and petty. It is enough for all you to eat why stop this man from getting his bag. Anyway, I think it’s crazy .Jacquees come up with your own material.
People have been making remixes for years, decades, and centuries. I personally believe jacquees is entitled to remake any song he pleases. I love jacquees style and ego he has truly came along way. Why let his talent go unnoticed to the world. Chris brown ect… aren’t the only artist in the music industry that has built up a reputation for the public so as for me i refuse to sign any petition to ban jacquees from anything by any means necessary. Jacquees deserves to be given a chance to reach his dreams just as much as the next artist! #teamjacquees…#himmyboo…#talentdoesntgounnoticed….#
He’s not “entitled” if he can’t sing. Lol?
Is he a SIGNED recording artist. Why doesn’t he promote his original music?
He is not humble that’s the difference between Him and the every other young r&b singer. He caught Keith Sweat on the right day cause it would’ve ended badly for Jacquees
One question:
Where the f*** do I sign? ?
He’s real disrespectful
Here’s an awesome comment, did anyone ever think that when he singing these people songs specifically if it’s an artist who haven’t been out in a while. That maybe he’s doing them a favor. To me he’s keeping them alive. Everyone knows what song he’s singing when he sing. So, don’t it make you think about that artist? Don’t it make you wonder what’s going on with that artist? Don’t it make you google that artist, like come on ppl. If he set up there and remixed all them artist song then I say he do deserve it because he keeps r&b alive. For Keaith Sweat to want an apology, I feel he owe us fans an apology for him not being consistent. So all of you artist that are mad need to be thanking him. Because of him I have downloaded more of my favorite artists music, bought old and new albums, got me keeping up with headlines about them because when you haven’t heard from them in a while you want them to come out with something. Specifically with the way music has changed because I’m 80’s baby. So, it makes you really wonder what’s going on with my boy Keith Sweat…..(for an example). I wish I had my own talk show or radio show because this is bananas. He should not be banned from remixing like he been doing, haters need to sit down and realize, that real lives matter in this because your talking about this man career and he has made a beautiful mark in the music industry. Now yall wanna take all that away because of how he announced himself. If he wasn’t singing some all songs yall probably still be out of sight out of mind. So, pick up the phone, pick up that pen, or pick up your car keys and thank him, congratulate him. I mean if it’s that offensive then what you gonna that man huh, because he Kinged mad of yall music showing love. Did it ever dawn on you that artists of the music he remixed, that he’s a fan of that artist. So he singing his poor little heart out, of songs he love by the artist he’s a fan of……I’m gonna drop the mic right here!!!!!!
Where can I sign!?
Just Ban his ass period his music is trash. He is not the new Generation of R&B he will be another 1 hit wonder he would never be a chris Brown, Tank, Usher, Avant, or any of the original R&B artist Never……
In all honesty, he has great potential. I dare not take away or speak against his gift or talent, regarding singing. He has certain privileges & feels entitled, for whatever reasons, but he needs to humbled! He needs to understand humility and paying homage to those who have paved the way for up coming artists such as himself. He just needs lessons! So before we beat him down, let’s try something different, let’s teach, motivate, encourage, uplift The Brother. Let’s overwhelm him with positive affirmations & give him that work, so he can begin to put in the work!!
Prolific InCitE
Ban him from the music industry period‼
I dont think he’s doing anything wrong no harm to the music he has his own words mix in it but he’s not claiming he wrote or created their songs or he not saying or portraying to be their ghost writer sometimes switching thing up can sound really good so wont y’all do it to some people that actually steals other people’s songs ,music but I see they get praised for it Chris Brown didn’t write that song nor was he the only one who sang it not did he sang it the exact way he put a little spin and twist in his too I dont see nothing wrong with a remix of jaquees….
Exactly!
He need his own songs… his ass can’t sing.. so he shouldn’t be singing thier songs
Lmao. I dont care either way I mean look how many remixes we got bringing life back in to a song that someone may has forgotten. But he doesn’t always bring life to the song but he tries! I dont see the big deal. S*** what’s the difference for people singing karaoke messing up what was once a beautiful song! Lol. The way I look at it if he singing ur music he look up to u. So in a way he is given u props!
Please stop remixing amazing songs and destroying them with your paltry renditions. Thank you
This dude is hustling and have NO talent. Make your own and leave others songs alone
His young ass needs to himbke himself
The king? He is not even close! When he comes out with his OWN platinum album, then we can discuss this further. Until then stay in your place! As a youtube cover artist, not the king of rnb. Lol
I agree.. he can barely sing as is.. I duno how he think he the king. He can’t hold a candle vocally to me or ne of the singers i know.lol dasan3vs on youtube.. I’m dope as f*** n even i never claimed that status. Smh what a bum
He needs to be stopped. Keeps running my soonnggsss
You are not the king of r&b no this generation last generation or thr next generation u can sing but ur not the king
F*** all of that ! BE ORIGINAL B****
Girlll give it up shug
Girlll give it up shug
Just dumb. Every music artist has remixed a song!
This is not a black or white thing. The boy can not sing. That’s all to it and he is disrespecting the artist that actually can sing.
Are you kidding me, please go sign a real cause all ready amd leave him alone. I would sing everybody stuff now
Leave the young man alone!
