yep...Bobby Brown really made an original musical statement. He was not Michael Jackson....wasn't trying to be. But he was competitive and cocky. Bobby innovated the black male R&B archetype...creating a mix of acrobatic & sexualized dance with smooth and hard music instincts. Brown lead the way for Usher, Chris Brown, Jason D. etc....this is not recognized often as his contribution to pop music overall.
In 1988 and 89, Bobby B. was at the top of his career. Al B. Sure and the other artists had no choice but to take a back seat to Bob. The late-1980s was my high school's days. Damn, I miss the 80s.
Remember when New Jack City came out about that time? I had swore that Bobby was G Money! And when the group After 7 came out with "Heat of the moment", I was like Bob got another one.
Being a fan of both whitney and Bobby, people say that bobby was whitneys downfall. It was actually the other way around yes they might have loved each other but their marriage was toxic
krzrrazrrokr Whitney definitely was his downfall.... when her brother finally came out saying she did coke before Bobby ppl were shocked. She used him to have an alibi about why she decided to be rebellious. Whole time, she was the manipulative one
He could’ve been way bigger had he not got involved with Whitney. He literally stopped doing what he loved music and being a hip hop r&b artist) to chase after a Whitney.
KDM he probably would’ve went crazy. Janet Jackson was very funny acting. She thought more of herself than she really was. Bobby probably genuinely wanted to be with someone and settle down and at that time Janet wouldn’t have been the right fit. In fact, I don’t think she would’ve wanted to gate any black man then.
Watching this, I don't think Bobby was trying to shade MJ or Prince. He felt that people wanted to see someone different other than MJ and Prince, considering they were both hot in the 80s.
He literally said they were "making themselves up to be something they're not"...MJ and Prince act like themselves, bobby acts like Kanye or Chris brown (fuckboy-diva) throughout the vid
thats def false....MJ and Prince def had a lot of "hollywood" in the public personas...as great as they were that can't be denied...Bobby was raw and people like that about him...people could relate to him....they couldn't relate to MJ or Prince
He was very good looking!!! I agree with the comment below. I was too young as well, born in 1990. But at 13-14 years old I became fully aware and a fan/supporter for life!
I heard stories from my grandmother about Bobby. At this age she was apart of his road management, if I remember correctly. Drugs at this point was Weed. Whitney upgraded him to the bigger boys in narcotics. He loves her enough to keep it to himself. I respect Bobby. Def the Chris Brown of the 80's. (I was the little girl (2 or 3) on stage back then, crying to see Bobby perform)
Chris Brown? That boy has never had an album worth even buying. Lol bobby brown album was huge all over the world he blended rnb and hip hop....nobody had ever done that like he did.
Dominique Le Blu What's the deal with blogtalkradio D? I'd like to hear more of what you have to say but I don't see any episodes posted. Help. Am I looking in the wrong place? How does it work?
on the interview the lady asked Bobby did Whitney give you coke Bobby said no they both are drug users before they met each other nobody can put you on drugs its a decision it's a choice
Missblessed Godrememberme he was a bad boy before his stage performances. Stealing and having sex at the age eight repeatedly throughout his childhood . Smfh!!!
COME ON, BOBBY! He kept it real as hell. He said, I know ya'll are gettin' sick of the enormity that comes with Michael Jackson and Prince, so let me do my thing. I was way too young to get the full effect on all of ya'll. But, by the time I started diggin' through my father's tapes and records, oh I was fully aware. I like you just as a man, Bobby. I feel like I understand you.
He really meant he didn't have to use androgyny to sell records. He was closer to a regular fly homie than they were. Different forms of fame. Relatabilty/Accessible vs 1 of a kind. So many ways to do it ⭐️
Stop it , no he was not cute in the candy girl days. He grew into himself when he became a young adult. Maybe he was cute to you then,but not to me. NOPE! Anyway he was fine here.
Amelia Horn No one has to agree with your opinion or thoughts! Then none of them were cute, but grew into a look. That ignorant statement was not needed and you sound very immature. Are you here to enjoy a video are comment on how someone use to look?. IMO all of them were cute during the Candy Girl era, especially Bobby my favorite and that's how I saw them. Bobby had nice features and I loved the signature gap. My personal preference is chocolate men. I agree, he most definitely got Finer, Sexier, and more Handsome as he got older. Now he has gone through addiction, health problems, and deaths, so he is not expected to be the same. Love me some Bobby Brown even today !!!!
Boy what a handsome black prince Bobby used to look like. He should have just focused on his career and married a non-celebrity. He most definitely was on the verge of reaching "icon" status.
he was basically saying their music is GR8 but ppl was tired of seeing "characters" so to speak ppl who are "made up" and he means made up literally & figuratively the ppl need a "street" & raw brother and wasnt "playing a character so to speak its like this : when prince & Michael Jackson get off the stage and go home to sleep they had to take off all these extra clothes wipe off their make-up take off their earrings etc......take off their whole "persona" ....when bobby b. went home all he had to do was leave the stage in jump in bed ....there wasnt no "extra made up stuff" just him raw as ever. and that's what bobby b. was saying he wasnt trying to shade prince & mj he could never say nothing bout their music its just facts ......ppl always taking things personal smh
sha rich626 That's funny. The point of the reality show, the book, the movie, etc. was to show people "the real Bobby brown". He scthick was the bad boy image, but when he got off stage he wasn't like that. I believe prince and Michael were the same on stage and off stage. 🤷🏿♀️
Donna Maria They didn't portray to be that either. When Bobby went to jail for gyrating on that girl at his concert, he literally planned to do that to add to his bad boy image. His monicker was, Bobby Brown the bad boy of R&B. But throughout the movie it seemed like he was trying to portray that he didn't look for trouble but trouble always found him. In other words, he's not a bad boy but he wants everyone to finally know that he's a good guy underneath the bad boy image. Why do you think it was so easy for e everyone to believe he put Whitney onto drugs?
@@officiallytera6831 First of all he didn't create the "Bad Boy" image people saw him that way because he didn't follow rules and always getting into trouble because of it. He didn't like to be told what to do especially when it came his music and performances as you saw when he was in New Edition. Him and the other guys had ideas of how they wanted their music, sound, and look to be but the label wanted their way on top of not paying them. That's why Bobby issues the most. So when Bobby finally got to kind of showcase his style and do things his way he decided he wasn't gonna let nobody tell him what to do. The thing with the girl on stage was him not giving a fuck what officers said. It was a part of his show and nobody was gonna tell him not to do it not even the police and that's where it came from.
Yeah but dont you get tired when people copy them and take their whole style? That's what bobby meant yeah you can take inspiration but also be orginal
I love it...he knew he deserved some of the spotlight...I love New Edition but the truth is the force behind the group never saw any real talent in BB...sometimes you have to go a step backwards to go two steps forward...that was his break and he became a superstar...he proved everyone wrong...and his wife was a legendary icon...He was winning...had they stayed off the drugs...
I think Bobby was a regular wild kid who had access to drugs, girls and a bit of money, but he had a LOT of talent and star power. Sadly, his relationship with Whitney (who I love) ruined the both of them. Who knows who Bobby could have been if they had not married... Also, his MJ/Prince comment sounded cocky but I think he meant, he was just a regular guy, as opposed to MJ and Prince larger-than-life alter egos...
Say what you want about Bobby Brown but this man has put in the hard work it takes to reach this level of success during his prime & at such a young age. He deserves that respect 👏
Can't believe He dissed Prince. We're sitting here four years after Prince's Death and still loving everything about Him and Bobby got with Whitney and became A House Husband.
He literally said" not to say anything to you prince or Michael ". Bobby was saying he and people were tired of seeing other's copy mj and prince's style be creative
I agree with you, that album was full of Teddy Riley and Babyface production. Dope album especially if you're working out. This album used to get me pumped up.
“John 14:27. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”✝️❤️
I agree with Bobby, you can even see it today. Of course people love MJ and Prince but they ran the game for so long so it's understandable that people wanted something new. It's like Drake right now, we love him but it's time for something new. It's like Warriors and Cavs, they've been running the NBA for the past couple years, fans are tired of the same old same old. Don't matter how good they are, it will get boring.
that’s not what he was trying to say tho- he was trying to say that people are tired of the same image of artist/celebrities being pure and fancy like they can do no wrong which isn’t real.
Bobby wasn't dissin Prince or Mj, he just said he thought the public wanted some1 who was real and themselves, over artists that tried to portray a fake image
People keep calling him ugly .. Look in the mirror. Who told you , you were cute ? Probably your mom , she lied. Stop being rude to people. Bobby was the King . His demons got the best of him , but he was GREAT in his day.. KING !

the black record buyer is what made it possible for Michael Jackson to receive global superstardom, our support was the most vital...the foundation..this reality always gets overlooked or dismissed alltogether.......he changed his being and that choice led to massive decline in record sales by the end of the 80s, losing half of his fan support in the span of 5 years alone...
he still had stature because of what he accomplished in the past during the early to mid 80s......by 1989, he lost have of his fan following but the way he was promoted to his new generation of fans gave the impression that wasn't the case
Michael was Michael, he wasn't trying to be something he wasn't. Prince was Prince, he also was being true to himself! Both those brothers were the Kings of the 80's! Bobby was cool but he needed to chill with all that attitude trying to shade two legends. Young lions can come up without disrespecting the giants before them.
I feel like if Bobby would’ve kept on going with his career even after he was married to Whitney he would’ve been even bigger. Or kept doing movies like he was doing. Every where you looked bobby was with Whitney
To be honest, he would've started falling off when New Jack Swing had fully left the scene to Hip Hop Soul headed by Mary J Blige, Ginuwine, Jodeci, etc. Bobby thrived on high energy tempo beats like NJS but by the mid-90s people were done with that sound.
@@NewAb22Ginuwine came out later in 96 with the futuristic rnb/hip hop sound ushered by Timbaland and Missy that dominated the late 90s. The hip hop soul era was in the early 90s (1991-94)
I understood what he meant he wasn’t downplaying the talent of those two but was merely saying they were not really relatable they had bigger than life personalities so much to the point where people thought that they weren’t even human…but Bobby had the talent and the down to earth personality that people could really relate to…he really was the second coming to talents like Michael Jackson and prince 💯💯💯
He’s talking about the image that they were “perfect” Bobby could care less about having that image, he wanted to perform and make people smile and that’s what he did
Bobby and Justin Bieber had the same problem. They got famous too young, started acting crazy doing what they wanted. After they hit their lowest they're still successful but they lack the same respect from the public.
Hold up! Wait a minute! Everything was fine until he threw shade at MJ and Prince. Are you kidding me? They are pioneers! It was never a matter of anyone being tired of MJ or Prince. At least I wasn't. But just because I love a couple of artist, that doesn't mean there is no room for anybody else. My favorite song on the planet is Herb Alpert "Making Love in the Rain" But that doesn't negate all the other artist on my IPod. There IS enough room for everyone...beleive me!!
Rainy5062002 What he meant was, people wanted something raw and new. He gave them that. Bobby sang and dance different than Prince & MJ and he was a trendsetter from head to toe. Artist of today follow BB's footprint...Usher, Chris Brown, with the raw dance crews not MJ's. He was a different type of artist than MJ. Bobby was just raw with a swag. I forgot that about him. It was so odd seeing him with Whitney at first, because he was cooler than her. Clive was trying to make Whitney the next Diana Ross and it was just weird seeing them together, plus she was older than Janet Jackson.
humpty dumpty if it wasn't for mj there will be no bobby. MJ did it raw at the age of 9. Nothing but raw talent. That's why berry Gordy signed him and the j5.
Don't be cruel best album ever he had such a great voice at the same time he had a new jack swing drugs ruined his career but on the Whitney movie it says how his career fell apart bc of Whitney Houston.. tbh his 1st album wasn't that good just the song girlfriend was good but when teddy Riley and baby helped him write and produced dont be cruel it became one of best selling r n b selling albums of all time
It didn't do huge numbers like doc but it went gold. That's pretty decent for a debut especially back then. Hell today's artists are struggling to reach gold and platinum status
Ive loved bobby since I was 5 years old. I'm 32 now. While my family was hooked on the Michael and Janet Jackson ... I was all for the rebel! I loved his music and dancing. He was different from the pop acts. He didn't care...he was himself.
How cool is that!! You can hear a tinge of the Boston accent in his voice. When he says "solo ahtist," 1:19-1:21. Also, when he says "ovah" and "hahdah," 2:15-2:20.
You can say what you want about Bobby Brown but his music was catchy as hell. It still holds up today IMO.

Sad to watch. He seemed pretty reasonable and straight up when he was young. It’s been a sad story.
He seems to have learned from his mistakes and seems to be doing fine now. He again seems reasonable and straightforward.
1988 to 1991 Bobby Brown was at his peak...his prime. After 1991 things started going wrong.
Rodi Rogue 1992 and 1993 was good for Brown. 1994 and after was the end.
I agree with you, that album was full of Teddy Riley and Babyface production. Dope album especially if you're working out. This album used to get me pumped up.
He had a brief comeback in 1996 when he got back with NE but fell off the year after.

Life Love 1 Me K.T. all this cursing and insulting doesn't make you any better than the people who insulted Bobby. Let. It. Go.
Bobby was so cute! Loved the Bobby Brown Story❤️
Bobby brown was not ugly back then . He looked cute back then
Fine as fuck
Bobby Brown is was and always will be a Super 🌟 Star. I didn't like him down playing Michael Jackson 😕.
He wasn’t..or not trying to at least. Michael and Prince were larger than life personas. Bobby was always himself.

the black record buyer is what made it possible for Michael Jackson to receive global superstardom, our support was the most vital...the foundation..this reality always gets overlooked or dismissed alltogether.......he changed his being and that choice led to massive decline in record sales by the end of the 80s, losing half of his fan support in the span of 5 years alone...
@@scorpionJB that not true Mike was still that guy in the 90s..and only people who didnt fw mike was haters
he still had stature because of what he accomplished in the past during the early to mid 80s......by 1989, he lost have of his fan following but the way he was promoted to his new generation of fans gave the impression that wasn't the case
GOT DAMN!!!
Bobby Brown
Spoken like a TRUE AQUARIUS!
#AQUARIUS GANG💀💀💀
Michael was Michael, he wasn't trying to be something he wasn't. Prince was Prince, he also was being true to himself! Both those brothers were the Kings of the 80's! Bobby was cool but he needed to chill with all that attitude trying to shade two legends. Young lions can come up without disrespecting the giants before them.
The news lady was the epitome of hair, style and fashion of the 80s. Does anyone remember Ebony and Jet? Happy black history month.
I feel like if Bobby would’ve kept on going with his career even after he was married to Whitney he would’ve been even bigger. Or kept doing movies like he was doing. Every where you looked bobby was with Whitney
To be honest, he would've started falling off when New Jack Swing had fully left the scene to Hip Hop Soul headed by Mary J Blige, Ginuwine, Jodeci, etc. Bobby thrived on high energy tempo beats like NJS but by the mid-90s people were done with that sound.
@@NewAb22Ginuwine came out later in 96 with the futuristic rnb/hip hop sound ushered by Timbaland and Missy that dominated the late 90s. The hip hop soul era was in the early 90s (1991-94)
Bobby brown was a top entertainer in his day.
he thought Mike & Prince were just images? yeah he was sniffing some good stuff.😁
I understood what he meant he wasn’t downplaying the talent of those two but was merely saying they were not really relatable they had bigger than life personalities so much to the point where people thought that they weren’t even human…but Bobby had the talent and the down to earth personality that people could really relate to…he really was the second coming to talents like Michael Jackson and prince 💯💯💯
He’s talking about the image that they were “perfect” Bobby could care less about having that image, he wanted to perform and make people smile and that’s what he did
love his voice😂😂😂
1:39 - 1:46 “ YOU KNOW IM JUST ME , AND IM A PERFORMER , AND IF PEOPLE LIKE PERFORMANCES THEN YOU KNOW , COME SEE THE SHOW “
Bobby and Prince should not even be mentioned in the same sentence
Honestly
Daniel George Smith He could've been but he was his own downfall
So dam true , mj n prince like really
I wish I could’ve been in my 20’s in the 80’s, the aesthetic the vibe the music tsss
oooooh I use to be in LOVE with Bobby Brown!!! 😍😍😍
Legend
Bobby Brown...The ORIGINAL BAD BOY!!!!!!!!!
Love the movie and love him!
Keep going brother! :-)
Bobby and Justin Bieber had the same problem. They got famous too young, started acting crazy doing what they wanted. After they hit their lowest they're still successful but they lack the same respect from the public.
No, marriage ruined him.
@@joyandpeacefullaughter5307 Bobby Brown was wildin before marriage.
Wow I was 9 years old ,when Bobby Brown did this interview!!
Hold up! Wait a minute! Everything was fine until he threw shade at MJ and Prince. Are you kidding me? They are pioneers! It was never a matter of anyone being tired of MJ or Prince. At least I wasn't. But just because I love a couple of artist, that doesn't mean there is no room for anybody else.
My favorite song on the planet is Herb Alpert "Making Love in the Rain" But that doesn't negate all the other artist on my IPod. There IS enough room for everyone...beleive me!!
Rainy5062002 What he meant was, people wanted something raw and new. He gave them that. Bobby sang and dance different than Prince & MJ and he was a trendsetter from head to toe. Artist of today follow BB's footprint...Usher, Chris Brown, with the raw dance crews not MJ's. He was a different type of artist than MJ. Bobby was just raw with a swag. I forgot that about him. It was so odd seeing him with Whitney at first, because he was cooler than her. Clive was trying to make Whitney the next Diana Ross and it was just weird seeing them together, plus she was older than Janet Jackson.
It was not shade.
If you listen carefully, he said the "Michael Jacksons and the Princes".
So he's referring to people trying to be like them, not them specifically.
Rainy5062002 In 2018 all the dances are copied and overused with no originality.
humpty dumpty if it wasn't for mj there will be no bobby. MJ did it raw at the age of 9. Nothing but raw talent. That's why berry Gordy signed him and the j5.
LMAO @ when he told off the crowd for not singing with him 😂🤣
Don't be cruel best album ever he had such a great voice at the same time he had a new jack swing drugs ruined his career but on the Whitney movie it says how his career fell apart bc of Whitney Houston.. tbh his 1st album wasn't that good just the song girlfriend was good but when teddy Riley and baby helped him write and produced dont be cruel it became one of best selling r n b selling albums of all time
Baby face#
Jonathan barnett i personally like king of stage
It didn't do huge numbers like doc but it went gold. That's pretty decent for a debut especially back then. Hell today's artists are struggling to reach gold and platinum status
+Marseills McKenzie thats half the industry bruh
Marseills McKenzie Lies! It sold 10 million right out the gate.
Next to the Jackson five new Edition is the best group.. who agrees 2019
He wore his mom's broche on his outfit when he did " My prerogative"
Bobby was so fine
What about the guy giving the interview?
David R not fine as bobby
I always liked bobby, grew up on his music, him new edition and etc..
I love his lips 😍😍😍
😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣
It's so sexy😍
I think Ralph was the most humbled one and I feel that bobby didn't deserve any of this but he was talented so... there you go
I love u bobby.....
between Johnny bell biv devoe Bobby brown I'm picking Bobby don't get me wrong Johnny can blow but solo Bobby baby
Solo Bobby killin EVERYBODY!!! He was the total package!
Love this his hits still popping to me ✌🏾
I was in love w/Bobby Brown
Sandra Perez yes
He pretty much became bigger than new edition ever is and was
what he said at 2:16 is soo true
Ive loved bobby since I was 5 years old. I'm 32 now. While my family was hooked on the Michael and Janet Jackson ... I was all for the rebel! I loved his music and dancing. He was different from the pop acts. He didn't care...he was himself.
When I was a kid people said I looked exactly like bobby brown ...even had the haircut to match....
Babatunde24 lol i bet u got all the ladies
sampraz hudson I was like 7 puppy love yes.....
Who's the lady at the beginning?
Who came here after seeing The Bobby Brown Story?
Brown shines!
Bobby brown was fiiiiine💋💋💋❤❤😘
How cool is that!! You can hear a tinge of the Boston accent in his voice. When he says "solo ahtist," 1:19-1:21. Also, when he says "ovah" and "hahdah," 2:15-2:20.
I can't believe he dated Janet Jackson 😦
Bobby was that dude back in the 80s unstoppable
The real King of RnB 💪💯😎
They did Bobby so wrong
Lol at all y’all dissing Bobby Brown in these comments talking down on his looks. Whitney wanted a confident bad boy. Not them pretty boy types.
I thk God that he's still alive!!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😎😎😎😎
The epitome of believing in yourself. Every young person should take note.....just not the drugs and stuff like that. 😊
