We chopped it up with our boy Steph Jones over the weekend wondering if he has what it takes to bring real R&B back. You may think Steph is a rapper because he used to be signed to DTP Records and had the song out with Ludacris and Chingy, but no.

Steph is much more than Jordin Sparks’ boy, and as a matter of fact, his own independent mixtape was just released yesterday, Gravity.

BOSSIP: Are you still soaking up Jordin Sparks thick panties?

BOSSIP: Tell us about yourself Steph.

Steph Jones: What most people don’t know about me is that I did 25 months in a French jail, my father was killed when I was 12 in a drug deal out in Texas, 3rd Ward, where we are originally from, plus I was a signed Tommy Hilfiger and Ford model. I am born and raised inside of music. We are a pretty typical black family, you know?

BOSSIP: Pretty typical Cali family, we know that for sure. OK, so your music is eclectic and you are not your run of the mill brother. Some may even call your steez “soft.” Want to defend yourself?

Steph Jones: My mom raised us surrounded by all kinds of music and influences.From Sinatra to Harry Belafonte. I also don’t believe in excuses and that is what makes me a go-getter. Being a victim and living in that alone can lead to one’s demise. When I was a kid I was the weird one. I have always tried to be different, so when people take notice to that… I’m cool with it.

BOSSIP: Change lanes here; what’s up with you and Jordin Sparks???

Steph Jones: What’s up with her? I am married to music.

BOSSIP: Are you still soaking up her thick panties?

Steph Jones: We still together… as a team. You can’t do this game yourself. It’s like Michael Jordan needed Pippen.

BOSSIP: (SMH) What did she think of the article we did previously where we spotted you with the white girl after the BET Awards??

Steph Jones: She laughed and I laughed. You cats are comedy. That was just a fan. Let’s talk about the ladies…

BOSSIP: OK. What’s up with the ladies? How do you like them? We all know Jordin is a big girl… are you into the thickens?

Steph Jones: I am into women. I respect strong women. I can see some kind of beauty in all of them. It doesn’t matter if they are short, tall, skinny, or thick. Women can be themselves around me… it’s OK. My momma taught me well when it comes to ladies.

BOSSIP: Nice. Who are some of the baddest women in the game?

Steph Jones: Erykah Badu, Beyonce, Jordin… hell, there are a load of them out there.

BOSSIP: What about your music and this mixtape, Gravity?

Steph Jones: It’s music that we did personally. I feel that the soul of music is being sucked out of it right now. The name “Gravity” is to signify me trying to bring it back down, down to the roots. I am in the studio all day working. This mixtape is just a sample of my actual talent and where it is going.

BOSSIP: Cool Steph. What’s your first single?

Steph Jones: “You’re So Delicious” I am hoping the ladies love it. The reviews have already been good.

BOSSIP: Tell us about yourself Steph.

Steph Jones: What most people don’t know about me is that my brother is DeRay Davis, the comedian from Wild-N-Out, Semi-Pro, and a gang of other movies.

@cruzan trini

Yea the interview was definitely OFF. Why would he go into all that as if he’s more concerned for his brothers career, and as if he’s looking for some type of street cred?

The Black How Do I Get Famous checklist:
1. Don’t go to college because you’ll lose street cred.
2. Make sure you spend some time in jail.
3. The more tattoos the better.
4. You must work out because that means you’re talented.
5. Be between 5′5 – 5′9
6. Say as many ignorant statements as possible. Don’t want people to think just might be intelligent.
7. Having a drug dealing past (whether real or not) is a plus.
8. Say you screw many women or if you’re female, spread you might be…”bi-curious”.
9. Say the right statements over and over (“I’m focused”, “I’m on my grind”, “I’m up in the studio daily”, “I’m bringing something new to the game”)
10. Make sure you’re easy on the eyes, because once again that means you’re talented.

Whateva (the real, accept no substitutes)

10/13/09, 10:45:am

12. Make sure you’re from the worst part of your city. But if you’re not so fortunate be able to name a few intersections and a couple of projects.

13. Get your boy to shoot you. That could be a signing bonus.

14. Hang out with Teyana Taylor
15. Start some beef with Soulja Boy, 50, and Bow Wow

10/13/09, 10:52:am

17. Get a major cash advance on your “one” record deal and spend it on bull*****. You know you can pay it back once your first single drops.

i like the song. the interviewer is the one that needs to be mocked. what kind of questions were those?

copelli21

10/13/09, 11:18:am

Bossip: Please take a journalism cl***** and learn how to interview. Your questions were wack and ghetto….but then again, this is Bossip…..

I was clearly expecting something more “earthy” when you title your album “Gravity.” That shiite was straight popcorn.

His voice is mediocre at best…..but it seems nowadays mediocre is p*****ing for talent.

Just another pretty face…..

U guys dont believe everything u read, Steph would not even say half of the things published in this interview..The question about Jordin would’ve surely got dismissed by Steph… Ppl. publish lies to get a rise out of the readers.

10/13/09, 14:12:pm

Man this “conveyor belt” music that’s being thrown out today. Our kids won’t have the privilege of listening to the likes people like Prince, Luther Vandross(RIP), Michael Jackson (RIP), Anita Baker, Glady Knights, the GAP band and the list goes on.

I’m 20 years old and I absolutely HATE these lames ***** artist like Nikki Minaj, Gucci Mane, Plies, T-Pain etc… Its always about sex, drugs, blah blah. That ***** gets no play in my home. I love old R&B and neo soul. I have a daughter that’s 11 months old and ill be damned if she gonna be dancing to the damn “stanky leg” like that little girl in that video dancing on the table.

Sidenote: Artist like Teedra Moses and Raheem are the TRUTH! Plus SADE is coming back real soon and she gonna slay these wack ***** R&B chicks

Rock In DUUUUUUUVAAAAAALLL!!!

@bossip,

that was a really disrespectful interview. i thought you guys would take it easy on him since he is indeed “light skinned”

@steph,

you are an idiot.

10/13/09, 23:01:pm

He spent 25 months in a french jail? with a bunch of other *****gots no doubt. Dry snitching on your dead father? Dude, stop trying to act like you’re hard and keep all that ***** to yourself. You’re trying too hard. Be happy and comfortable with your life and what God has done for you and stop trying to be something you aren’t otherwise you’ll catch one…ask Pac.

da truff

10/14/09, 01:42:am

i will admit..he is trying 2 make it up in the world but damn bossip…y’all are just like dat ugly ***** ***** sandra rose: disrespectful for no good reason and hateful as hell..y’all just trying to give people a negative image on this site…say something good about him at least

K*****

10/14/09, 05:00:am

He is Jordin Sparks boyfriend i think they make a cute couple he is so fine

Realist

10/15/09, 01:02:am

Bossip!!!! now you know good and well we all know that that interview didnt go like that. i follow Steph on twitter, watch his youtubes and watch his live ustreams and he is highly intelligent and has a greta since of direction. i can almost bet my life that the questions you asked on here werent in the same context as this 3rd grade raunchy interview. im done

shortdawg

10/15/09, 12:58:pm

I agree with the interview was a little OFF. and it seems like he’s mentioning all the bad stuff that happend in his life trying to earn cool points or street credit or something. why not mention how he started singing, how he ended up signing with Luda and why he left? The song sounds good, it’s different and that’s what he’s looking for. He should colab with Andre 3000 and john legend, his style reminds me of a singer version of Andre. It’s going to be hard for him to push this type of music though because people are used to the usher’s, jaheim’s, tank’s and Omarion’s.( don’t get me wrong i love all of them) but i can feel what he’s saying when he says soul r&b….shout out to Anthony Hamilton. they sometimes don’t get the credit they deserve because they are actually singing about true love instead of fu**ing somebody at the club.

GAY

10/15/09, 15:28:pm

Another *****ody in the age of immediate consumption.

Realist

10/17/09, 00:17:am

shortdawg i can almost guarantee that Steph didnt say those things in hat context or like that. He never talks about things to get street cred thats silly. Thats just bossip trying to stir things up. i follow him on twitter and the verbage doesnt match with any interview he done. I can almost bet he spoke of DTP and Luda. This interview was wack and doesnt make since but i have love for my Stephy poo and trust he will rise above most of the people you just named. I bet my life on it
