What you astutely describe is what's known as Bubblegum music in the industry. New Edition had a few Bubblegum hits when they first started. Think Mr Telephone Man, Candy Girl, Cool It Now and Popcorn Love.
Tevin Campbell...oh man now we're talking. The biggest what if in R&B history. Imo had his personal life not gone south, he woulda been the biggest artist of his generation. Btw, "tell me what you want me to do" will blow your mind. He was legit like 13 years old. He was like young MJ reincarnated.
Anthony Anderson idc idc he is STILL my favorite male R&B artist. Period. He can still sang so I wish he’d record more music. I’d support him faithfully.
*Tevin* himself said in interviews that _he_ was the one that decided to step back from the music biz in 2000 after he saw how his personal life was spiraling out of control... & he felt much better for doing so. When he did decide to come back in 2005, he side-stepped to Broadway instead & stayed there for a long time, until he felt ready to give music another try...!!! The good part about all this is that top producers still want to work with him, but this time he's doing things on his own terms... & going at his own pace... without all the industry control & its pressures & pitfalls... & he seems happier than ever, & sounds just as good as before!!! 👍 👍 👍
OMG!! your getting into Tevin!!! This boy was so talented, many compared him to a young Micheal Jackson. Babyface is singing on the background & this was released in 93'. Please check out his songs,'I'm Ready," "Always in my heart," and "Just ask me to," off the Boyz in the Hood soundtrack!!!👍😍
This is a signature R&B classic right here! You should hear his song with Quincy Jones, "Tomorrow". He was only 13 and the youngest artist have a #1 song on the R&B charts.
That song is sick and was back then too. It was played on the radio every single day back in the day. I have a group of songs that I can listen to everyday and never get tired of them & this sing is one of them. 😂
Please do tell me what do you want me to do (from his first album) and I'm Ready and Always in my Heart from this album; yes babyface does background and Roni was written and produced by babyface too - I think that whole don't be cruel album was
This album hit so hard. His first release was Tomorrow and was produced by Quincy Jones, and second single was Round and Round produced by Prince! Tevin was awesome.
You can't react to Tevin without reacting to Hi Five. Tevin is from the Dallas area and Hi Five came out of Waco, Texas. Tony Thompson was the lead singer of Hi Five. Beautiful voice. RIP..
I know this might seem like a weird suggestion but Disney released a film in the '90s called " A Goofy Movie" Staring Goofy and his son Max. Tevin Campbell was cast in the movie to play as world famous pop superstar Powerline, which also happened to be Max's favorite artist, and performed two songs in the film called "Stand Out" and "Eye to Eye" which I seriously recommend you listen to. I guess they're not technically considered "real songs" since they were made for the movie but they're still a great listen, especially if you liked this one!!
you need to do some Hi-Five too - the lead singer Tony Thompson was a great singer as well; They had a song called the kissing game, she's playing hard to get, Never should have let you go, Cant wait another minute..
How have I been sleeping on this channel?! You’re basically hitting every song in my music library, lol. Authentic reactions, intelligent & cultured commentary. Subscribed! 👍🏽
*_"Roni"_* is short for *_tender roni_* & it was a popular term back then that described a young, pretty girl who you like. It meant something like *_"bae"_* or *_"shorty"_* today. 👍
That's one of the best things about growing up back in earlier times; no phones and being influenced by negative culture via social media. We had so much fun talking and laughing with one another and building friendships for life.
This is the song that can play anywhere, at any place, with anyone...and you get to the chorus and turn off the music...and we ALL SAAAAANG THIS SONG! We don't sing...we SANG this song. Lol!
Jack, You should definitely check out Tevin Campbell & Brandy's cover of "The Closer I Get To You" from the tv show New York Undercover. The clip should be on RUclips. It's 🔥🔥🔥🔥.
Tevin Campbell was 17 years old when can we talk came out in 1993, he is 43 now, his voice range is tenor, and yes he was quite popular and had an amazing voice, Quincy Jones introduced tevin to the world in 1989, his debut song was tomorrow another must hear from a much younger tevin, and somewhere along the line he did a song produced by the one and only price called round and round.
If I remember correctly Tevin was about 17 or so at the time. One of my very favorite "forgotten" voices of the 90s. Check out I'm Ready, its soooo smooth and just your "two-step" kind of song, lol!
1993 was a good year for a 16 year old *Tevin🎙Campbell* who was considered the male version of *Whitney Houston* .... 📻🎶🎵 Please checkout other *Tevin* songs *Tomorrow* *I'm Ready* *One Song* *Brown Eyes* *Don't say goodbye* *Goodbye* *Tell me what you want me to do* Plus many more....🤔

@@Sil_P yes !!
Round and round goes hard.

Tevin and Whitney should've done a duet together because their vocal power, range and control are very similar.
Teenagers singing like grown adults. Welcoming to the 90’s!! Listen to Tevin I’m Ready
I'm ready is a must
Right!! I’m ready is one of my favorites.

right, like Monica! Who would think they were like 14 or 15 singing like that, about love! I love growing up in the 90's ;)

Word up! Tracie Spencer was the epitome of inappropriate teenage girl music! Lol. Music that could never beer made today! Lol
One of my favorite songs... period!!!

bella reid Tamia is so underrated and one of my all time favorites. Her voice just glides, so beautiful and effortless! ❤️
@@ms.one-town901 So true.
This album hit so hard. His first release was Tomorrow and was produced by Quincy Jones, and second single was Round and Round produced by Prince! Tevin was awesome.
You can't react to Tevin without reacting to Hi Five. Tevin is from the Dallas area and Hi Five came out of Waco, Texas. Tony Thompson was the lead singer of Hi Five. Beautiful voice. RIP..
so sad about that group - their unsung was crazy! was in love with Tony Thompson
Tony Thompson was a beast. Such a sad story
Tevin has that really nice clean Tone and perfect pitch, with amazing control in ranges low and high.
Yessssss omg you have to do more Tevin Campbell. One of the best male vocalists if the 90s!!
I know this might seem like a weird suggestion but Disney released a film in the '90s called " A Goofy Movie" Staring Goofy and his son Max. Tevin Campbell was cast in the movie to play as world famous pop superstar Powerline, which also happened to be Max's favorite artist, and performed two songs in the film called "Stand Out" and "Eye to Eye" which I seriously recommend you listen to. I guess they're not technically considered "real songs" since they were made for the movie but they're still a great listen, especially if you liked this one!!
No... you're suggestion is NOT weird at all. Lol we all know both Those songs Were 🔥🔥... Great recommendations...
Tevin was 15 when this song came out. That whole album was 🔥
what a classic. Tevin campbell is the shit yo! You should react to She's Playing Hard to Get by Hi-Five . Good 90's r&b jam
You should also listen to I'm Ready, one of my fave songs by Tevin.
@@JackReacts904 I have more recommendations if you want them. I'll also say check out one of his earlier songs, Confused, it another one of my faves.
@@JackReacts904 Trevino Campbell- Tell Me What U Want Me To Do, Always In My Heart
Tevin Campbell was born Nov 1976 and this was recorded in 1992 and released in 1993. Thus, Tevin was only about 16 at the time!
Jack, Tevin was 17 at the time. He was born in 1976. As for the song...it's one of my favorites.
@@JackReacts904 I agree. He was very talented.
Eye to eye tevin Campbell from the goofy movie
Round and round and always in my heart by tevin Campbell
you need to do some Hi-Five too - the lead singer Tony Thompson was a great singer as well; They had a song called the kissing game, she's playing hard to get, Never should have let you go, Cant wait another minute..
That's my Baby for you!!! He's just the best!!@ That's why you like it so much!!! You cant deny!!! (You seem sooo happy, I'm glad)!!!
I think he was 13 or 14 years old at the time. That boy can sing! Tevin is so underated. Keisha Cole: Love is very romantic song.
I think he was around 16 or so when this dropped back in 1993. This song was a pretty big hit back in the day, used to hear it everywhere.
Classic 🔥
Jack wasn’t prepared lol great reaction
I'm on someone's coattail in the comments but that Jesse Powell - you
Yes!!
Oh hell yeah!! Him and Tevin always remind me of each other.
Kevin Spencer baybe yes.... “You” still makes me feel some kind of way!!
