GGD, it has been a while since I saw Jesse. He definitely looks different. Thanks for the yahoo photo.

Wow, he does look different. He looks a lot like Rick James before he died. It's amazing...when he released his first solo album I thought his career would be just as great as Prince's but, here we are in 2004 and in that second pic he's wearing a fake Coach hat.(I know this because Coach is spelled with a "C" not a "G")

Whoa. Now, it's deep how you make the Rick James look alike comparison. I really wasn't trying to go there. But when you think of Jesse's look in the 80's, he used to wear more make up back then. Now, he dosen't wear any make up anymore. When you really think about, its seems like the only members of The Time that have really made money have been Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. It really is on fortunate that Jesse career didn't continue to flourish as much as Prince and Jam/Lewis.

Yikes! Let's hope he's not headed in the same direction!

to me he looks like a black David Lee Roth

origmnd said:

Yeah now he does. Both him and David Lee Roth have taken off the makeup and do looked aged.

I haven't seen him since the "Bare My Naked Soul" album cover (of course, that was going on 10 years ago). He had braids about the same length of Rick James' braids at the time but Rick had gained weight and Jesse still appeared to be thin. Rick had a stroke, a pacemaker, and was also a diebetic and continued gaining weight until his death. I haven't seen Jesse in years though, has he gained weight? Other than the braids that I saw on him almost ten years ago, I didn't see any comparison between the two.

Damn, he looks as bad as David Lee Roth? Where did you see him Hotlegs? I haven't seen him in years.

Vain you can look at the photos that GGDeville has provided at the top of the thread. Those are the most recent that I have seen of my boy Jess.

Thanks Hotlegs. I checked them out and you are right, he's aged a little but he's also taken off his make-up. I think he could look good again if he puts his make-up back on. I don't see that he looks anywhere near as bad as David Lee Roth does now though. David really looks rough these days and I don't think any amount of make-up would make him look better.

Yikes! Not everyone can age as well as Prince. Rick James looked a lot worse, though.

I know what else is wrong. His mustache is gone. A man that has a mustache and shaves it off, always looks messed up afterwards.

vainandy said:

You may have a point. I knew something else looked different about my boy but I couldn't quite pinpoint it.

he made great fuckin albums ! whether he looks like shit or got a hairi lip or not ! yea ???

he is "down by old man Johnsons farm"

4nowneway said:

What's wrong with you fellas? He doesn't have a moustache since Graffiti Bridge. Well, in Bare My Naked Soul got it back; then shaved it again.
