- www.vladtv.com - Pleasure P led the successful Miami-based group Pretty Ricky over a decade ago, but due to dealings with their label head, the singer claims their lives were nowhere near extravagant as most would've assumed.
Baby Blue and Spectacular's father, Bluestar Entertainment CEO Joseph "Blue" Smith, reportedly overworked the four young men and stole from his sons. According to Pleasure P, Pretty Ricky never saw money from their shows or publishing, and any advancements were nonexistent in their eyes. "I would say he probably made about eight to ten million dollars, or probably a little more than that. Who knows?" Pleasure P tells us in the clip.
Listen on as he discusses their legal woes and talks about his past relationship with Eddie Murphy's daughter, Bria Murphy, above.

Pretty Ricky really was the shit back in the day. Pleasure P really was the glue holding them together. If you didn't know any verse to a pretty ricky song I bet you knew the chorus tho.
That was really thanks to the late great Static Major. RIP
lightmajor1 nooooooo bullshit #RipStaticMajor
karmel latimore got a point
karmel latimore Soooo Horrrrrrnnnaayyyy, Soooooo Hoorrrrnaaaayyaaaaaaaay! lmao them boys were wild dope as music they could of been really big because their albums were dope it wasnt just the it songs that were good.
Pleasure p and static major . When static died that was it . He did most of the music wrote most of the songs. And pleasure was lead . And baby blue was co lead but he cant sing
Their manager must have gotten training from birdman.
LOL
wisdom wiz good one man , lmao
😭😭😭😭 now that was funny
wisdom wiz Lmao have y'all seen the Filnobep videos? "I thought a lawsuit meant it was a law that said I had to buy a new suit!"
birdman learned from diddy. diddy learned from clive davis
Damn as soon as he asked that first question he yelled “Their father‼️‼️‼️” damn! Lol smh
24pekanpie whos father particular?
Baby blue and slick em father
@@alysskah8178 Slick Em has a different dad. Its really Blue & Spectacular's dad.
That was his uncle?
I was looking for someone to think the was I was 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Everyone saying he bitter. When 10,000,000 stolen I'd have to kill someone. And yes I'd definitely be bitter... He finally getting a chance to talk
He put his money in them ....and hit the jackpot
If this much was stolen from them, I wonder how much was stolen from B5
@@user-oz6yt8ut8k I will pray for you
Pleasure P and the beats really made Pretty Ricky...The rest was replaceable
Facts
@@catt9720 ..I use to think that but it was something about the chance of pace and flows that made them different
@@brotherLee340 he made them trust. Listen closely
Truth
Same with B2k. No Omarion. No Group. The proof is what happens once you leave the group. Alot of these young artist are cuddled and it cost them later on.
Pretty ricky was a talented group man
I never imagined his personality to be like this
They didn't know. They probably didn't read their contract. Remember in entertainment/sports the person who you see never actually gets their full check of what they earned everyone takes a cut first. Lawyers, managers, publishers, publicist, etc
Preston White GAFL You LAME
+Latoya Harvey wasgud😏
Most of these dude come from the hood. With little or no education.
Dominque Stewart I really think he's high cause on other interviews he was more mello and chill.
lmfaoo Pleasure P's facial expressions and these comments got me cracking up! Somebody said he looks like a retired YG lol.

LMAOOOOOO
What's yo IG?
Yoooo 💀😂
In all of Pleasures interviews he seems to be in fight mode ALL THE TIME! my nigga nobody is at ya neck Calm down
NoTy187Tv lmaooo
NoTy187Tv Homeboy in fight mode all the time because everybody got to get up everyday and fight the world to eat. Traffic, bosses, co workers, boyfriends, girlfriends. If you got to come home and fight get out asap!
tremel scyobl we all go through shit "bro" but being angry at the world will only kill him not saying he should forget the past but forgive and move on.
NoTy187Tv Somebody steal 10mil from you and I would be more than in fight mode.
Subliminal187Tv He have to defend himself
daaayum they gon be on unsung 3-5 years from now
LithiumGod 😂😂
It may happen
😂😂😂😂😂
Y he dressed like He Gone Take My Uncle Charless Yaw
😂
LMFAOOOOOO
Holy shiiiiiiit
Omg STFU hahahaha
TurfOrDie 🤣🤣🤣
The industry tried to fuck up his image because he was a platinum recording artist who was really smart and he started to have a powerful outlook on the labels and his group their were many different rumours y he left but it was good that he did and he is a very talented artist so I look fwd to his new projects
It wouldn't surprise me if the dad put that out there to ruin his image.
sounds like what they did to B2k
Minus the rapes
Wait a min? No Advance money, No Royalty, No Show Money??? Y'all all broke I thought y'all least had something, I would be forever piss
Justin M no show money to like nah bitch y’all go so for free tf I look like 🤣
somebody would be dead playing wit me.
😂😂
well pleasure p went through alot. give him a break
so did they
Y'all can say what y'all want about Pretty Ricky but their 'Bluestars' album is a gem too many jams on that 'Playhouse,' 'A Little Closer,' 'Get You Right,' 'Juicy' etc. I do agree though after Pleasure left & Static Major died that was it. They still was young & this industry will have you fooled if you don't know how it operates!
Makeena Curtis I swear I was in middle school age ain't none but a #
Tay M AGE does matter in the music industry a business full of sharks !
@@JeromeGigante He's talking about the Pretty Ricky song Mr. 1 year too late!
he just had a 3minute run on sentence
ham shank lol
My dude hat got me thinking he clean chimneys now.
LOL!
NeedMoneyNow this comment man!
He can't tell a lie. His mama was one of the ones honest Abe stroked
noooooooooooo lmao
Pleasure P is actually a really good singer
Pleasure p Song's are still 🔥🔥🔥
pretty ricky was the last biggest r&b group
Without Pleasure P there was no pretty Ricky
pleasure p keeping shit real most people don't wanna here the truth..most of these rappers in this industry are slaves or puppets
Somebody pissed him off before this interview, probably Vlad.
I appreciate his transparency. Its clear that he was taken advantage of by the record executives. Best wishes to his new journey.
Catch your breathe P damn lol your collar to tight or something
His Hat Is To Tight
msprettylovepink your joke don't make since
Lmfao right!
Duce Vasquez sound like he about to have a asthma attack or something lol
HHSlimChris Miami305 right lol everything too tight

Lame
Why Pleasure P look like the dude at the end of the "Crossroads" video
Lol He does.
***** It be like that sumtimes lol
lol w
🤣🤣
Barrs
"I just started dating Eddie Murphy..." 🤔
"... daughter". Phew... 😅
Never seen a black Amish dude before 🤷🏽♂️
To be honest, i think Pretty Ricky is the one's who through that rumor out on him back then. I've always thought that from the gate, they couldn't compete with him when he left that group and were bitter at the time.
vlad stop asking people dollar amounts.. every interview its "how much exactly did they steal from you?" "how much did you make on that album?" "how much did you get extorted for?" "how much is your child support?" like stop tryin to read peoples pockets.. no one wants to just hand you their W-2 live on vladtv
This culture Vulture be Pocket watching 4 reel yo.
Ol quaker oats hat...
Quaker oat meal man (the black edition) 😂😂😂
Pretty Ricky had classics. You play their greatest hits and it sounds good as new today. Jim Jonson was a beast, and one day people will realize in hindsight, just how classic this group was.
he look like he geeked
The age old rule don't sign shit without a lawyer...
True
i feel he seems like a stand up guy ♥️ thanks for sharing i appreciate it
This dude is so real I wouldn't be mad if he was back on top
Wow.... pretty ricky was MY GROUP back then, No wonder i haven't heard anything else from them. Shady ass busted ass people in music business.... always someone stealing someone's money, that's what happened to TLC and Toni Braxton and so on. That's why you gotta be careful who you are making deals with. This business is very cutthroat. It's hard enough getting into the business now that it's a different era and music has changed much so (#NotInAGoodWay).... and then you gotta watch your back and make sure you're not getting side tracked.
Damn that's crazy. They say they back out with Pleasure P in the group again. New song called Puddles.
Something about this man's speech is weird like he just learned to speak decent or something I don't get it him. No normal flow you know. Hard to listen to him talk
Ive been a fan of his and pretty ricky since the beginning and i also noticed that he seems to have a stuttering problem as well.
Lol! This interview is mad funny for some reason. Either how he talks or how he looks. Not even trippin off how what he's talking about.
Comments got me weak
if this aint a Illuminati story idk what is
Pretty Ricky made CLASSICS !!! They will always be around for eternity. They are the Gap Band and Earth Wind And Fire Of Our ERA
Never
How the hell you got 2 gold albums, and doing shows and not getting any money. WTF, even if your new in the game you should atleast get money from your shows
360 deal...
Devin Jones He got a lot of money from his album but Pretty Ricky albums were platinum and they didnt get nothing.
Pretty Ricky 1st 2 albums went Gold. Vlad was wrong
+Devin Jones na blue stars went platinum , they second album went gold at 900,000 album was close probably is now. But ring tones they numbers
TheKJProductionz
Yep the second album is platinum now.
Pleasure was pissed. Damn bruh. 😑🤔🤔
as soon as he asked the question pleasure went in lol like he couldn't wait to tell us this.
Pleasure I always wanted you to go solo. I remember that song with Trina and Plies.you song your part and I wanted to just hear you
He look like yg
BUDDY COULDNT WAIT FOR THIS QUESTION LOL
Thats the hat scarface had on in the smile video
It always be over money with groups !! 3 or more members always fall out over money ! People don’t wanna split the money when it come
shit crazy I never heard any rumors about him!
Facts! Pleasure p and the beats made the songs
Typical. Artist being taken advantage of. I'm not shocked.
damn,all these negative comments towards P,,,,wow! folks really feel bad about themselves
What’s crazy is every generation going forward will try to be in the position of the artist of the past and think things will be different for them… good luck youngins but just know you’ve could have put that same energy in a real business.
Once my guy pleasure left the group. They went to shambles man. He was the glue that brought out there sound like mike was to boyz 2 men. But man on sum real shit im sure what he was saying about the manager has some facts to it cause the 2 singers that they replaced p with 4play and lungerie aint stay long at all. Both of em are from hometown my cousin knows lungerie the singer who came after 4play quit and he said himself the manager of the group/they father was horrible. Its a damn shame what has become of that group cause they were definitely the jodeci of the mid 2000s during my high school years. Im kinda glad 4play and lungerie left they werent recieved well all when p left the hate was real and both of those dudes can sing there asses off esp lungerie it was almost like p never left with him. He can match his notes cause he sanged on the hotline it sounded like p was still with them. I heard one of the rappers slick em was on cocaine. What was one of the dopest groups just went up in smoke.
Boy got that Black Amish guy look goin
No show money???? Daaaamn
Damn pleasure you gotta let your thoke loose !!! That collar tight af 😂😂😭😭
Pleasure P -I ain't got nothing bad to say about him if I did I would 😂😂😂

BOBJYAZ
he was and is my favorite he made that group
this is why alot of managers like to get young artist bcuz they don't no there writes on the album far as point system and how much your entitled to bcuz most don't have the knowledge there just so happy to b on TV
Respect!!!!
Things change
A bunch of people got fucked out they ends in the game and still is when millions of dollars involved. From Tupac, New Edition, O town, Swizz Beatz. Hire somebody to watch somebody. Managers, lawyers, accountants etc.
I loved Pretty Ricky! 🖤
I always wanted to know why they broke up
Lookin like Freddy Jackson now
Yea whatever, every artist says the same thing once they fall off and get broke.
tipsy in the club was the lick in the day
Why Pleasure P dressed like Rev Run?
can't unsee dej loaf
Atlantic ,Warner Bros music group ,def jam,interscope records crooked
Ryan leslie taking over now with his new tech app. cut the middle man (including itune)...indie and gets all the profit.
I agree I'm born and raised in Miami brown sub to be exact! and people make it seem like all of Miami is a paradise but on the real Miami is grimy as fuck! and u do anything to get out that he'll whole! so I don't blame pleasure p.
Hanging with Mr.Cooper,
lol.
READ AND LEARN THE MUSIC BUSINESS...Berry Gordy 101...Greater Later Always Prevails..Good 4 U Pleasure P.
Bro look pissed the fuck off like he at the principals office lmao
I really feel for him because I understand how hard it is in the music industry, but Pretty Ricky is forgettable, overall. I liked Grind on Me, but I never bothered to follow up. Here I am 10 years later and I've finally decided to check on their songs. Underwhelming and just underperformed. Vocally, take it or leave it. Anyway, I recommend all upcoming artists listen to Record Company Pimpin' by Ice Cube. Close yo' eyes and listen carefully. Look at how Cube, Jay-Z and brothas like that are living. Just worry free.
... Nigga who asked you
First CD was fire
U trippin. Juicy bumpin af still til this day,
she likes nsync and backstreet boys
I disagree about vocally underperforming and jay z and cube are sell outs
Is this really pleasure p 😳 never thought his personality would be like this
He didnt address the rumors.
does anyone know what he did.. or allegedly did?.. because it supposedly ruined his career
People was saying he was a child m*lester. Turned out to hold now weight.
10 million!!! Oh we gotta throw hands ASAP!
thank you
It's amazing the people in the comments who support his comments has truth but the reality of the situation is they have no idea if he's telling the truth or not! They're leaving those comments in hopes dude will see the comments and reply to them which afterwards over time they will build a bond and relationship becoming best friends or maybe even lovers all with the hopes of being able to use him in one way or another!
Man I thought this was a YG interview
NO SHOW MONEY I DONT THINK I CAN BELIEVE THAT ONE
This dude looks like a retired version of YG lmao
Idk why but this nigga is funny asl to me for some reason lol
Respect pleasure p for this interview. Man the music business them fkn blood sucka bn running foul 4 years. Smh
