Ricky Bell was so underrated as a singer. He had an impressive range as well as good power and control. He could give a song that little bit of extra “attitude” that made it great.
New Edition is one of the most talented groups ever. Ralph, Bobby, and Johnny, all had platinum solo projects and BBD just flip the script with the New Jack Swing Groove. Classic's Crate.
I remember folks doubting if these three could be successful and that album shut em all up. Plus, I’ve always loved when other NE members show up to support in the others’ videos.
Watched them perform this in November of 2022 and they still got it! Ricky still sounds the same and Mike and Ron were doing the dance moves from the music video killing it just like on here! They really are the best and still look amazing doing what they do! Love them ❤
As big as they were, I always felt they could've been so much bigger. They helped to strengthen the bridge between R&B and Hip Hop. They set the table for many groups in the 90s, like TLC and quite a few others. Awesome video for an awesome song. Thanks for posting!
I remember when they dropped poison I was suspect about them at first but when I heard this joint it became my high school anthem when I had my 18th birthday party this was my intro when I came into the party!!! Man the good ole days
Back when music was fun, and rappers weren't killing each other. Before Tyler Perry jacked BET with wimpy soap operas and Donny Simpson was the host of Video Soul. THEY GOT THE GAME F*CKED UP
I had this cassette tape when I was about 8 years old. That was in '91. Haven't heard this track since those days, and it still sounds fresh! Love that funky bass/guitar. I've been obsessed with music like this lately: BBD, New Edition, Babyface, Levert, etc. This was my first favorite music that I can remember. I got way into grunge and metal a year or so later, but I still love me some Bell Biv Devoe.
Kind of funny story that is kind of related to this song. I was in Walmart around Christmas time 2023 & it was packed & all the self-checkouts were Looong. A register opened with an old guy & folks were almost running to that empty line. I was 2nd in line. When it was my turn, he said he was wondering why people were running to his register and he thought it was because he was such a good employee. I thought of this song & chuckled a little. He kept talking while scanning my stuff. He said, "Honestly, I thought it was me who made everybody run up here". I started laughing quietly because THIS SONG kept going through my mind from what he was saying. Some folks behind me chuckled at me laughing. The old man kept talking & said, "I found out that it was because the lines were long, but I really thought it was me that they thought was so good". I busted out laughing loud & couldn't stop laughing; I was almost crying. The people in line started laughing at me & the old guy was laughing at me too. When I was walking away with my basket, everybody in line was still laughing & smiling & the old guy was still chuckling at me & I was still laughing, cause he thought it was him!
it was good back then and still good today but huge thanks to that rebel guy in school with names like Nirvana,Metallica and Testament drawn on his pencil pouch.
What is a crazy thing out BBD, this was going to be the group we were going to get anyways if Ralph had left. They thought they needed Ralph and Bobby to make hits, but they made bangers regardless
90's was a great decade for music. The creativity, the music, the clothes, hairstyles, the vibe. Man miss it
Could not agree more.
I like the rap but I was more of a grunge girl.
Best of both worlds.
Miss those times
Unparalleled!
I couldn’t wait to hit the dance floor 💯🔥🔥
I ain’t leaving the 90’s. Y’all go on without me!!!!!
I never left.
I love how they always had Bobby in their videos. Brotherly love!!!
Watching Mike's interview w/ Math Hoffa now & he brings this up. I completely forgot about this.
Best r@ b group of the nineties missed these days
Where is Bobby in this video?
@johnnycee9325 look closely all 4 are there at the beginning of the video
@@johnnycee9325look at 0:34, I hadn’t seen this video in years
Can't believe this was 30+ years ago!
Facts
34 yrs to be exact
The whole album was nutts!!
Those boys were steppin in this video.
EXACTLY!!! Those moves they were performing was on POINT!!!
Bob showing support for his boys. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Back then if you sang, rapped or did both you had to dance. 90's forever baby!
Ricky Bell was so underrated as a singer. He had an impressive range as well as good power and control. He could give a song that little bit of extra “attitude” that made it great.
Exactly...I love his voice...He grew into a fabolous Vocalist😇😇😇
Agreed.
I've been saying that for yrs.
💯
Ricky is one bad mofo...
Today's music is nothing like Old School!!!
Ricky Bell. Is New Edition's best vocal weapon!!!!
I still Play This Album to this day and that's my favorite song on the album
I listen to this at least 3xs before proceeding through the album
This better than the stuff on radio today no debate
You aint neva lied. My jam to this day.
Facts
Brings back so many memories. High School and BBD and TLC went together.
0:47 That crouching spin is crazy. Ronnie was too smooth.
The best dancer out of N.E
I'm in my late 40s.. I haven't listened to this song since my teens. I still remember the lyrics word for word.
New Edition is one of the most talented groups ever. Ralph, Bobby, and Johnny, all had platinum solo projects and BBD just flip the script with the New Jack Swing Groove. Classic's Crate.
Correction New Edition is the only R&B that last ever. They might be tied with the Isley Brothers
hail yeah, they broke up and all tha separate sh!t they did was platinum/multiple platinum
WOW! This joint is 20yrs old! Still on point!!!!!!
Still on n its 2023 👍
I remember folks doubting if these three could be successful and that album shut em all up. Plus, I’ve always loved when other NE members show up to support in the others’ videos.
🙋🏾♂️ guilty ... and I'm glad I was wrong 😂
I'm 41, and I remember my older sister having this album. It went 3x platinum
This group was huge in the 90s
Duh
32 yrs later it’s still like 90 again!!!! Slick Bell is Still my Guy!!!
Another great BBD song!!!!!
Wow after all these years I never knew it was a video for this song and Bobby was in
This is the best song Bell Biv Devoe made and it was not Poison!!!!
Facts
Started singing this song in my head when I woke up this Easter morning! May God bless you all!
Still love this song.
