That guy from empire got his voice right when he played him on the biopic

Facts on top of facts!! 💯
I was about to say the same thing
Yea I just said this
Bivens is the most financially successful out of New Edition
You're right!
Mike Biv is the most financially successfull member of NE! He has a a great business mind!!!
Bobby probably Made the Most $$$ buuuut because of the "RICK JAMES" He didn't Stay Financially Successful!!
I guess B. Brown is the 2nd?
@@vegasmitch8209 no lies detected!👍
See…this is why I respect Biv & salute him.
I met him once & he stopped & listened to me.
I told him how I had been an NE fan since their 2nd album. He was mad humble, looked me in my eye & said thank you.
A stand up dude. Probably the most authentic & down to earth star or individual I have ever met.
Real talk.
👊🏿👍🏿
I figured he was. That's why he's my fave. I love all of them, but he's numero uno.
Darn!, it took their 2nd album before you became a fan?…..he was probably like, “what da hell”? 🤷🏽♀️😂
@@carolinagirl3110 😄 I think Biv knows that everybody became fans at different stages. I was a BBD fan before I found out they were from NE.
@@carolinagirl3110 Ikr 😆😆 I was only being honest. That’s how I’ve always been. It takes me a minute to get it but when I do, I’m with you for a lifetime.
Another reason why I salute him. Like Caramel Thick Chick said, I’m sure he understands that ppl definitely come late to the party sometimes but as long as they come thru & stay right? Haha😆😆
His voice is so soothing that I can hear him talking all day long :)
I could look at him all day and night He’s sooo cute and I love his voice
Me too...and look at him!!! Foine!!!
Same here. He's so fine! 😍
YESSSSSSSS!!!!!😍😍😍
Guess where Puff Daddy got his swag from?
Glad u caught that
They're speaking cadences are a little similar, but to say Puff got his swag from a Boston cat when his Dad was a notorious Harlem street dude is false. Stop.
@@CinqueMalcolm Well, Puffy's dad died when he was 3 or something
He has swag?
It’s stopped with ABC
I'm here after the New Edition movie after he met BOYZ ll MEN
He opened the door and they became the best R&B group of all time.
Boyz are NOWHERE NEAR The Best R&B Group of all Time & they Can SANG But do they even play ANY INSTRUMENTS? Barely Can Dance & Since the Age of 40 they DON'T Dance!
B2M can play instruments dude, arranging, producing, writing,composing, I've witnessed live performances dancing 2, not that great
, but OK, vocals and harmonies just insane, acapella they just killed it, but obviously we are reffering 2 vocaling group dude, get a life, hands down best R&B vocal group.
you trippin. They legends, but "All time" is an irresponsible statement that should not be made. To be honest, them cats don't have the respect they should have in their own community. Temptations, Jodeci, and N.E., and alot more all have more cred than B2M in the black community. Other groups that crossed over to pop could always come back, but they cant, they too far gone.
@@bbthompson05 I don't understand why it's an irresponsible thing to say LOL Achievements is what makes G.O.A.T Boyz II Men achievements way pass all the groups you mentioned and apart from Michael leaving they are still singing together and still selling out shows...even have residency in Las Vegas only the greatest get those opportunities
@@damiexxi3163 Go back and read my post. "They are legends", but... they crossed over to success, but lost the audience they originally sang for. Michael Jackson is the king of pop, but its his J5 days that most people of color listen to. I'm not saying they are not right to maximize their potential and longevity, but if you cant go back home, are you really successful in the eyes of your peers? I'm not insinuating that those fellas are not black or they are sellouts, but they don't sing Mo Town Philly like they did before. Them cats more like the Everly Brothers or The Bee Gees to us, they cool but...you know.
Biv 10 was one of my favorite labels back in the day...Subway, 702, Boyz II Men, ABC, BBD
Mike Bivens..(swag god)..this legendary fellow set trends through out his career amongst many whom crossed that 30 year mark of relevancy in the biz..
Beat them boys out of a whole lot of money to dont leave that shit out Biv that dude tho
Never heard that from boyz to men and they interviewed them several times. And they were on unsung you never heard them say mike bivens beat them out of money.
@@coleeason6007 nah....he didn't. B2M would have spoke on that.
@@traceygrant3386 I don't believe it either
@@coleeason6007 the only issue boys to men had with Biv is that they felt since he wasn't actually writing the songs or was a part of the songs on their albums then why was he collecting royalty checks off of them, they resolved this matter peacefully
Wooow love him .. he the one . He listen and he gave a Chance ...god is good ❤
There's authenticity in Michael Bivins. Everytime I see him on any video interview here on YT, he expresses himself well. He really deserves all his success.
Mike bivens is the point guard of new edition ( the play maker)
It’s yo boy yo gotti..
Built just like him & All 😂
Boyz II Men, ABC, BBD ...mmmmm hmmmmmm ...🔥
The East Coast Family 😊
Lol
Salutes to brother Mike Bivins, one of the all time music greats!
Mike I believe you guys will be the oldest group around I'm confident you all will overcome every hurdle.
The voice of CSR radio in GTA San Andreas 😁
Mike Biv is such a cool & intelligent brother👏👏👏
Love You God Bless You!!!! @MikeBiv💞💚💙💜😍🧡💕🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😄
Nobody talks about the business-savvy there that might draw to the group without Mike New Edition would have never survived long they have
Great interview 👍👍
Yo Gotti was a manager? DAMN!
Awesome!!!
IF YOU'RE READING THIS MESSAGE KNOW THAT JESUS LOVES YOU..HE DIED FOR YOUR SINS AND ROSE AGAIN..HE WANTS TO BE A PART OF YOUR LIFE.. HE'S WAITING ON YOU TO GIVE YOU PEACE.
AMEN “GOD is Love, GOD is good, GOD is just, GOD is everything good.”

Anything n everything for you

Just bc keep it like that it ain't that deep for me.... But anyway 😏😍🥰😘👫🤰👨👩👧👧
@@RestEasydaddy 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thats me..I'm a 🦁😎
He took what he learned from other's in the industry and continued to take from his own people. The recording industry steal money from people who simply want better for them self's.
especially when they sign dumb ass contracts 😂😂
It's ya boy yo gotti
It’s ya boy yo gotti
He could have been a mogul if he stuck with it but it wasn't for him
Dude has a perfume bottle as a necklace.
mike b got handkerchief for the Boston bloods
This kind of reminds me of eazy e and bones thugs n harmony
it's yo boy yo gooootttiii lol
They Say YOU YoGotti 😂😂😂😂
What in hell happened to Biv 10 records though? Nobody ever asks him about it. He had 30 rappers and singers signed to that label but nobody dropped a single track besides Boys II Men, MC Brains and ABC
Facts the eastcoast family
🙂👏🏾🔥💯
He should of listen to marc ecko as well
No doubt about it, Michael Knew how to spot great talent...702, Boys to men, Another bad creation. just to name a few.
Yo Gotti pops
Biv10 posse
This dude robbed BBD just like he got robbed when he first started with NE.
Proof???
He still good with bbd they are still a group where did you get that
Mike didn’t pay anyone sad!!!
same voice different look lol
Yooo🤣🤣 he gotta double chin😂😂
Mike signed a lot of bullshit.
Thee OmeGa-SupreMe,
would've saved Biv-10 ,
as Prince Charming.
His bad.
He's thee only one,
who saw me perform live.
He ripped Boyz 2 men off. That's why they left him
How I thought that that mike used his own money so he could teach boys to men how to dance but I don’t know the whole story so could you tell me how I really curious?
@@adonyenegussie4352 I want to know the story too.
That's not true at all. He took damn good care Boyz 2 Men.
@@Mountrell right, thank you
@@adonyenegussie4352 your just saying anything be quiet
Thief
As great as Mr. Bivins is, the groups he managed didn’t have longevity. Where’s ABC and Boyz II Men now? They’re not as hot as they were in the 90s. They’re run of hits was VERY short lived. Longevity is the key: New Edition/BBD, the O’jays, the Temps, 4 Tops, Stevie, Smokey are still around.
Boyz 2 Men are one of the most successful group in the music industry & they still revelant today!!
@@ticowayne6691 Boyz 2 Men are part of my youth. Today they’re an oldies act that tours. There’s NOTHIN’ wrong with that. Many of the acts from the new jack swing era today are still touring. If you’re not on the charts, songs aren’t being played, videos aren’t in circulation, you’re officially old skool. That’s a good thing. Rather old skool than the crap that’s out 2day!
@@ticowayne6691 you know there’s always one 🙄…..dude named groups and said that they are “still around”…..ok, so is Boyz II Men (Four Tops are dead and those other singers/groups are not on the charts either, they make appearances just like BIIM)….geesh!
BIIM have a lifetime residency in Las Vegas.. They don't have to make new music to prove anything to people like you
This comment is SO weird....
