This why 90s and before was so great musicians or artist needed real talent when it came to singing rapping or playing instruments so you had to sound official which isn’t a requirement nowadays
Yesss I was at this taping in 1992, Naughty by Nature also performed that night and I got to meet my crush Tempest Bledsoe who was the host!! A night I will never forget!!! Good share!!!
Out of curiosity, was "forever in your eyes" on the radio heavy at the time of this taping? I got the feeling that the audience had never heard that track before.
sorry to be offtopic but does anybody know a method to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost the password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
You're both right. Technically it doesn't sound like the radio version or the recordered version which is because of the extra adlibs but Stokely sounds like he sounds when it was recorded.
Too many adlibs for me. Go listen to Prince or Phillip Bailey, they don’t embellish as much. To me it throws his voice off key in some cases.. He’s a good singer but these adlibs are annoying to me!
I was born in 88. I was raised on all the good music. Anybody remember the New Jack Swing era? I use to love watchin’ my pops dance to all that stuff, he’d be doing them old ass New Edition moves lol
This aired 4/25/1992... just 3-days before my 22nd birthday. My beautiful brown-eyed girlfriend at the time and I wore the cassette single out in more ways (and places) than one☝🏾
Saw them in concert when they were in Chicago in the early 2000's and they were unbelievable! During a musical selection Stokely successfully played every instrument on stage!
Damnit, I can’t get enough of this song. This is one of those songs you can play when you’re experiencing heartache, having a good day or just washing dishes. This is my jam.
MC ripped this song, Stokley has such a unique sound. Remember, they were brand new and this was their first hit, and to do this live at the APOLLO??? These guys were either nuts or had balls of steel.
I try to play this every month or so. Absolutely brilliant. Stokely is a master. The Apollo Theatre in the 90s really hosted some stellar performances.
Football Player Terrell Owens was on ESPN T. O. Flirted with Jemelle Hill, He and Sang: " Pretty Brown Eyes " Everyone fell out laughing as Jemelle started Blushing. T.O. killed it,he was good.
My favorite drum teacher had me do a drum recital to this song 27 YEARS ago while he played the bass. I thought that this song was OK but he had me playing the sixteeth notes on the hi hat which made it funky.

Stokely is seriously underrated in the pantheon of great voices.
Not really 😂
Facts!
No diggity
He really is his singing is great and he puts extra on it live!!!!
Not true. His voice is crazy and the black community knows that.
these voices in the 90s sounded so pure & natural … NO AUTOTUNE !!! I’m only 24 & I only rock with 90s music . 🙌🏾
Same here. This music is so missed. It breaks my heart what these children have to listen too now. 😢😢
I was born in 2002 and my mum always had me on 80-90s r&b nothing hits like that kind of music
That's how it was back then. The talent had to be real. It was raw, edgy and pure. I miss the days pop culture was alive.
There’s nothing wrong with auto tune they’re a lot of singers who are amazing singing live
This why 90s and before was so great musicians or artist needed real talent when it came to singing rapping or playing instruments so you had to sound official which isn’t a requirement nowadays
He’s not singing, he’s SAAAANGING 😩👏🏽
A real band. Stokley's voice is like fine wine. Mint Condition is probably the last real band left. 2024
I agree.
@@debrasmallwood5318 indeed
The Roots
@@ericbush6124 them too
No gimmicks.. pure vocal talent
And still sounding even better 2023
Yeap

@Trenton Lian Instablaster ;)
Sounded just like the radio version. Pure talent.
It doesn’t but still a great live performance

Stoke was rockin that perm...
Stokely is so underrated as a vocalist
Danmm he sound just as good as on recording
He saaaannnnnggg this whew🤞🏾💫💖
Mint condition baby oh yeah
Great singer but clearly wasn't his best performance
@@jayskywalker5049 facts
@@jayskywalker5049 yes ! But he sang tho
Lowkey crying because of the passion he sings with
What a voice,live crisp & clear...that's why 90's can't ever be touched for me,some of the best vocalists of all time are in this era👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
90s was raw pure and all about talent no matter what you we re doing this performance proves these cats we re so underrated
@@michaelbull4344 100%
90s the last era of pure raw singers.
The fact that Stokley’s name dont usually come up when people talk about best male vocalist is sickening
Thinking the same
Facts 👌🏿🫡
It does in the right circles
They don’t know what they don’t know. Top 10 easy! And im talking Al jarreau, and Johnny Hartman and EddieKendrick, Phillip Bailey etc - ya heard😅
Agree!
I always thought this band was so underrated and talented, real musicians and his voice has such a great tone!
Facts mint condition is underrated
💯
1000%!
They are this generation earth wind and fire
That boy stokely can sang
3:40 I'm in love with this.
I'm not sure why I just keep repeating that part, it's like my word is stuck on that part, I do not what I'm saying honestly. It's magic ✨
I was born in 88. I was raised on all the good music. Anybody remember the New Jack Swing era? I use to love watchin’ my pops dance to all that stuff, he’d be doing them old ass New Edition moves lol
Look how beautiful we used to look. My God, help us return.
( '' And you can't Hideeeee'') I love how Stokely hits that note!!! This band is one of the greatest out of the 90s!!!
90s R&B was certainly a restoration of soul from the 70s! 👏👏 Mint Condition !!!!!A+++++++++++
💯 90s grown ups were 70s babies sounds about right
This aired 4/25/1992... just 3-days before my 22nd birthday. My beautiful brown-eyed girlfriend at the time and I wore the cassette single out in more ways (and places) than one☝🏾
Damn I was literally one day old lol, turned 30 4/24/22
It aired the day before mine, I made 29 and it was on and popping 🤣
Now this the kind of music needs to be on Grammys
The quality of that voice is world class. So crisp.
This cannot be duplicated! AND Stokley is an accomplished musician . . . still listening in 2021.
Still come on radio 2023 I had to put a face to who was singing this lol
2023!!
2023 till infinity!!! Real music never dies
Saw them in concert when they were in Chicago in the early 2000's and they were unbelievable! During a musical selection Stokely successfully played every instrument on stage!
I love Mint Condition Stokley has A Outstanding Voice ❤❤❤
One of the Best R&B of the 90's
Stokely was feeling that thing lol
That Man SANG!!!! He was SANGING!!!!!
This video deserves more likes!
Are you sure???
And views
@@jayskywalker5049 why’s that a question? 😂
He can blow this is my favorite song by mint condition
Me,too mines also.
I remember when this first hit the airwaves. I was like "why is he saying heart like that?" Right before i fell in love with this dude.
Stokley The lead singer has a unique voice
Yes he's a "Mezzo" soprano!!!
Similar to Raphael Saadiq but a little better. In fact Toni Tone Tony and Mint Condition are very comparable as bands.
@@respectlife216him babyface , jon b and all of them have similar
Voices . But stokley tops them
Him and Danny boy have similar voices
I remember rocking them pump waves back in the day. This is classic!
Im here in 2021 for this classic masterpiece!
Damnit, I can’t get enough of this song. This is one of those songs you can play when you’re experiencing heartache, having a good day or just washing dishes. This is my jam.
Toni Braxton ex husband is a member of the group
1:50 !! i absolutely love this performance 🥰
back when singers could actually sing
Right!
TRUTH
Imagine being able to watch this performance in person! What a stellar show.
Wish i was a teenager or in my early 20s in the late 80s and early 90s
same bruh… those wore the golden times in entertainment imo
Those were the best days of my life. Just turning 17 and had the buggest crush on the most popular boy in high school with brown eyes. Lol
Facts !
It was the best.
Lord ikr. Life feels like it’s at 50% growing up as a teen in the 2010s
Sing it Stokely !!!
Stokely is one of the BEST "Mezzo" sopranos out there 🔥!!!
You see the thing about mint was you thought it was just one dude but at the end of the day was just several dudes that can really play and sing
I love Stokely im here 2021
19 years old. This tape got SO much play from me
Beautiful!!!!! He can sing to me any day. I love this guy, always.
I was cleaning up the house, and this suddenly pooped into my head after all these years. Apollo was the jawn.
The mic was onnnnnn❤
Real real music, clean vocals, tight band. Best of the best 💗❤️😘
Love❤
MC ripped this song, Stokley has such a unique sound. Remember, they were brand new and this was their first hit, and to do this live at the APOLLO??? These guys were either nuts or had balls of steel.
WOW... Stokely is the #TRUTH -- This is their earlier performance and this Brother was #dope from the jump...
#ThatRangeThough!! #mintconditon
One of my favorite bands 🥰 I would love to see them in concert right now 😍
A hellva of group of great players/ musicians and Stokley is a awesome singer and drummer too! Great memories too!
Back when not everybody called themself a “singer” lol. This a TRUE singer
EXCELLENT!!! OUR ARTIST NEED THE RECONITITION THEY DESERVE PERIODT
🗣🗣This is my song🥰! The classics hit different... 🖤👑💋💯
He killed it
Reflections of my middle school/jr high years! We used to sing this song so hard! It still speaks to my soul.
Stokley voice the real deal 🔥👌🏾
daaaaamn this was before I was born 😂 and I can't stop repeating this song today for some reason
Love me some Stokley
I try to play this every month or so. Absolutely brilliant. Stokely is a master. The Apollo Theatre in the 90s really hosted some stellar performances.
3:35 😩😩😩
Wow. That was amazing.
Stokely stole the show 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Stokely voice is absolutely crazy 🤦🏾♂️ he ranges in and out of notes and tones effortlessly. Top 10 male r&b voices for sure.
That Minneapolis sound is something else. 🔥🔥
Classic!!
No one does it better than mint condition
Absolutely Fantastic! Listening to this in December of 2022 😍
3:40 is the reason you came for

This performance made me fall in love with this song all over again! I didn't know that was even possible. ♥
A masterpiece
This man can’t be human ❤
🔥🔥🔥
Stokley sounds good live and you can tell he can really sing, but he gets really pitchy trying to put his own spins on this live performance
He just needed to calm down lol. I found it funny
It be like that sometimes 😭
@@MrTeam302 You can see the difference in this performance once he actually slowed down.
ruclips.net/video/HLvsxljOXOQ/видео.html
Yeah man all the awkward runs lmao but he a very nice range
Yea you can tell he’s trying to find a different way to sing the song from the track. I wonder if he ever had a vocal coach.
I love you for uploading this masterpiece
Football Player Terrell Owens was on ESPN T. O. Flirted with Jemelle Hill, He and Sang: " Pretty Brown Eyes "
Everyone fell out laughing as
Jemelle started Blushing.
T.O. killed it,he was good.
That was amazing and raw
Stokeley! OMG. 🔥
All time Favorite. Mint Condition
Wow that’s a awesome performance I would have felt so good after hearing that live!
