What REALLY Happened to Donell Jones?

After releasing numerous chart-topping hits, Donell Jones’ life did a complete 180. The father of six went from hustling on the streets to going on tour with Alicia Keys and writing songs for 702.. But the Chicago native’s personal struggles led him down a path that sidetracked his career. Here’s what really happened to Donell Jones.

I feel for the first mother of his children. She loved him before the fame, she had four children with him, and went through a lot with him.

[seanmerisier]

I still listen to his music, glad he got his life back on track.

That's crazy how he did his first girl...crazy how men get caught up with other females when they get fame and forget the one who held them down before the fame.

Has no one made the connection with LA Reid and his shadiness? Donell is a very handsome man. It's so good to hear something positive about our wonderful r&b vocalists. I like this channel. Positive reports. Thank you 💜💜💜
