Brutha was originally composed had 5 members, but the three older brothers, Anthony & Grady Harrell III, and Jared Overton left the group because they wanted to move on and do their own thing. Their show, Brothers to Brutha, shows their transformation during and after they rose to fame. The brothers are signed to Def Jam Records, and their self-titled debut album "Brutha" was released in December 2008.
The group formed in 2002 and Brian Mcknight introduced them on the 2003 Soul Train Holiday Special.
In 2007, their uncle Donny "Drano" Harrell, CEO of Goodfellas Entertainment, and Shakir Stewart, senior vice president of A&R at Island Def Jam, invited the group to Atlanta to do a filmed audition in front of Jermaine Dupri and a range of producers. It resulted in a one-hour original special TV show called "Jermaine Dupri presents: Brutha", broadcast March 24 on Peachtree TV. The group caught the attention of Jermaine Dupri, who signed them to the Island Def Jam Music Group.
Because the group disbanded, the two brothers left decided to change their name from Brutha to Jake & Papa.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I've been asking myself this question
Over and over again, oh
Is love a game that no matter
How I try I'll never win, oh
It's like tryna write a love story
But runnin' out of ink in the pen, suspense
Like a fairy tale beginning
But you never find out how it ends, oh
So I often wonder if I'll ever
Oh, if I'll ever find true love
Like the sun has summer, rain has thunder
What am I afraid of?
If I'm afraid to love, yeah
And if I'm afraid of love, yeah
I wanna know
'Cause if I'm afraid to love
Then how will ever find the one?
How will I ever find the one?
The one, the one, the one
How will I ever find the one?
The one
Tell me why is it the closer
That I get I run away, hey
It's like standing in the mirror
When my reflection looks the other way, hey
Outside I'm smiling
But the truth is that I'm crying inside, I'm tryin'
It's like tryna write the perfect song
But I can't come up with the last line
So I, so I often wonder if I'll ever
Oh, if I'll ever find true love
Like the sun has summer, rain has thunder
What if I'm afraid to love?
If I'm afraid to love
And if I'm afraid of love
'Cause if I'm afraid to love
Then how will ever find
How will I find, how will I find the one?
The one, the one, the one
How will I ever find the one?
Tell me, how will I ever find the one?
How will I ever find the one?
How will I ever find the one?
