♥️ Absolutely agree and @3:14 the MJ choreography was legitimately remastered perfectly in the tradition of the real Michael Jackson. These guys had their stuff together. It's clear to see why they were so popular and successful in the music business.👍😎👌
I'm a grown ass man but the musical parodies (Bobby Brown, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Milli Vanilli, and etc.) had me giggling like a little boy, which is what I was when this video came out in 1990.
See back in those happier years of entertainment. We also dance to our favorite artists, and that alone kelp us in shape. I told my kids, that living in those days where the best ever. We had better music influences, and we representated ourselves way better then my childrens has today.
Check out the original "Mama Africa" written, produced and performed by Hakim on RUclips. Akon had a international hit because Hakim recorded Akon in his home studio and coached him to sing the song exactly like he did.
Man, that Rhythm Nation re-creation at 0:01 to 0:07 was crazy funny. Back in the 1989-1990 period, everybody was trying to get that Janet Jackson finger countdown thing down pat.
Classic video! The Boys paid homage to so many artists/video concepts from the 80s in this one. I love it! Thought of it after watching "Faith." RIP George Michael.
❤Music will never be this fun again. These were the golden years of music and it really was a special time. Every time I hear this song I can't shake the feeling that Tevin Campbell was somehow supposed to be a part of it. During this timeframe he actually would of fit right in with this group perfectly as a definitive lead singer and that's a fact.👍😎👌
There's an extended version of this video as well and believe it or not, it's even funnier. Love that as young as they were, they had a great sense of humor.
OMG I missed those days so much and wonderful song's and music like this, we didn't realize how good we had it back then, with superstars boy band's like the Boys, they were such a great era in my life, forever a fan and love you guys.
Still pumping this joint December 29, 2015 and beyond. Shout Out to Suns of Light F.K.A (Formerly Known As) The Boys. Khiry, Hakim, Tajh, and Bilal Abdulsamad. Carson, Ca Finest. Hak Productions.
I absolutely loved these guys!!! I never realized that they were only a few years younger than me. I was born in ‘75. So they came out when I was in high school. My brother and I played their music nonstop. Now I can share them with my son. I miss R&B from the 90’s😭
2:39-2:47 was my favorite part of the dancing routine. This is so cute. I wasn’t hip to them as a child but I am now after their unsung. They were hella charismatic
SMH I swear I miss this type of early swagged late 80's Early 90's vibe F'real💯cos The Boys(rather young men)was really the FIRST to do a smoove ass parody video & I jus LOVVVE them SOOOO much cos they were & stl are Soooo Damn talented & their choreography was Off Da Chain like No otha, Sirrrsly OMG puuuure Fiiiire!!💪🏽🙋🏽♂️💙🙋🏽💙🙋🏽♂️💙🙋🏽💙🎶🎙🎶💯❤️🔥❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I love all of this stuff!!! The music, the whole song, the lyrics, the voices, the video, the dances, the references of Janet and Michael Jackson😍. I just fell in love with these guys. I love you The Boys!!🤍 (especially with Khiry bc in this video he is the same age as me. He is so handsome here)
Every Right On magazine, etc...They were in-me&my best friend brought to get their posters faithfully!!!...5,6,7th grade lunch breaks at The School for Creative and Performing Arts(Cincinnati)...Couldn't wait to sit and talk about The Boys!1988-1991...Memories:)
I still love this group, I was 6 in 1988 when I first discovered the Boys. I had a crush on all of them. I wish I was 12 in the late 80s so I could purchase records.
I'll never get tired of this song. It's still so much fun, and the video just enhances what a fun time it was. The Boys look like they had a blast making this video!
unsung is doing a story on them, can't wait to see it! I forgot all about them! I use to love them, If I told how long it has been since I have heard this song it will tell my age! lol Wow, good times in my life growing up, songs and memory!
***** Father time doesnt wait for any of us. I was 24 at this time. funny you mention that because one of my sisters little friend danced with me to this song when she was 14 and just told me everytime she hears this song she remembers that moment because she had a crush on me. SMH.... time is flying. I am 48 now. how old are u? 37 or 38 correct?
Y'all were one of my favourite R&B groups back in this era. Not just as a kid act, but the entire music scene. Thank you for what you did at that time. Hope you all are doing well and God bless.
I was 14 when this hit, I didn't think it was possible to laugh & dance real hard at the same time til I 1st saw this vid 20 yrs ago. Still makes me dance & laugh hard at the same time, I miss this whole era so much.
I remember my sweet grandmother bought me their vhs behind the scenes tape Crazy at kmart and I watched that thing like crazy!!!! I was obsessed with them well with Hakeem at least!😀
I was 14 years old and in the 9th grade in high school in Toronto when this track dropped. These guys had so much swag its not even funny. I remember those years like it was yesterday. I wish I could go back to those days and relive them over and over again...
These kids wrote a lot of their own music and came up with some of the video concepts. They were so dope to me when I was in the 7th grade. I had their picture in my locker.

New Jack Swing era was a fun time.
Still loving them at 52yrs old.❤
Yep me too. Same age😊
Crazy how they were so young and they did all of this by themselves it shows how talented they are at such a young age
♥️ Absolutely agree and @3:14 the MJ choreography was legitimately remastered perfectly in the tradition of the real Michael Jackson. These guys had their stuff together. It's clear to see why they were so popular and successful in the music business.👍😎👌
@@J.Croonerall of them were also on moonwalker as well
@@swayvacious1 ♥️Cool I didn't know that. I wish I could go back to these days and get a direct message from The Boyz.👍😎👌
@@J.Crooner you can probably find them today, I think they’re all psychologist now
@@swayvacious1 Cool that's great to know they are doing well in a professional setting making a living the right way.👍😎👌
Janet, Madonna, Bobby, George, millivanilli, MJ etc amazing video!!
The Milli Vanilli part was my favorite so funny I love this video
I'm a grown ass man but the musical parodies (Bobby Brown, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Milli Vanilli, and etc.) had me giggling like a little boy, which is what I was when this video came out in 1990.
BEVERLY HILLS COP, MIAMI VICE George Michael too lol when he was eating the chicken
BEVERLY HILLS COP, MIAMI VICE Aww😍
I was 7 at the time!
And the Janet Jackson "Rhythm Nation" parody too.
George Micheal on the juke box.
See back in those happier years of entertainment. We also dance to our favorite artists, and that alone kelp us in shape. I told my kids, that living in those days where the best ever. We had better music influences, and we representated ourselves way better then my childrens has today.

White Mexican here from a small town in AZ who never had MTV. Born rocker, secret RNB boy!!
Dope video
I'm listening in 2021😉
When you realize Hakeem wrote and produced This ...It slaps HARDER!!!!
Check out the original "Mama Africa" written, produced and performed by Hakim on RUclips. Akon had a international hit because Hakim recorded Akon in his home studio and coached him to sing the song exactly like he did.
Yes, he was a PHENOMENAL young talent.
Man, that Rhythm Nation re-creation at 0:01 to 0:07 was crazy funny. Back in the 1989-1990 period, everybody was trying to get that Janet Jackson finger countdown thing down pat.
And bobby brown part
This video was ahead of its time.
It was their idea too
Exactly..were catching up now...lol
I was thinking the same thing. And they produced that song themselves, I’m watching them on unsung
The Tag Team for real 💯
Wayy ahead!
I miss the late 80's and the early 90's.
That's true
New Jack Swing era...I miss it too!
Who don't miss da 80's music i know i do

+Tina Tate I know right.
Tina Tate Looking like little classy swagilicious men at that age! 😊
It’s amazing seeing this in 2021 and we let them young boys chase after that older woman .. as if that’s ok … but hey lol
@@T.O.OBrittanyB😳
Classic video! The Boys paid homage to so many artists/video concepts from the 80s in this one. I love it! Thought of it after watching "Faith." RIP George Michael.
Mildred Haslett rip
They were mocking them, not paying homage
Me too.❤
I wouldn’t say mocking; more of a parody.
RIP Michael Jackson
I forgot how absolutely funny this video was 😂😂😂😂
Two things that I love... Boy Bands and Dance Routines... :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
T red
I’m 14 and listening to this type of music. Way before my time. I love it ❤
The influence of Bobby brown is crazyy 🔥🔥
❤Music will never be this fun again. These were the golden years of music and it really was a special time. Every time I hear this song I can't shake the feeling that Tevin Campbell was somehow supposed to be a part of it.

They tapped into their inner, "In Living Color", as far as the musical parodies. Dope video, they definitely killed it.
More like weird al
The parodies were so good
@@tmalone2530I agree 😂💯
and bobby brown 😂
There's an extended version of this video as well and believe it or not, it's even funnier. Love that as young as they were, they had a great sense of humor.
Yes they really did Janet Jackson .
This real shit here miss those 90s jams
Won't be nothing like it no more!! Real music!!
Their music still holds up very well especially in this day in age 😊👍🎤

"Slow down baby I got pains in my chest." Lol 🤣😂🤣...so stinkin Cute!!! ❤️..aww the 80s...
It makes me cry... can't stop remembering my dead childhood friends killed in the war. We used to dance together
Me and my sisters grew up listening to the group. We loved hearing them sing!
Wow! I'm 35 years old and I must say I miss the early 90's

This was a hit!🔥🔥🔥 I remember this song playing in the background of a few Birthday Parties growing up.Nostalgia
This jam had all the elements of Troop in it. Quietly could have been made by a few hot groups back then but The Boys owned it.

I've gotten old and I'm sitting here talking about that's a cute Lil chocolate girl
The spoofs on all the videos..lol...I remember this song too
They always find a way to get men in women's clothing under the guise of artistic expression lies... Like it's a ritual or something.
Wat he said
