Let’s give it up for group CAMEO for producing this hit with Bobby Brown… Back and Forth and Candy… These dudes had their own sound in the late 80’s early 90’s and their music still completely rocks today! Larry Blackman and the crew did their thing!
Bobby Brown actually didn't like the music or direction that Blackmon was taking him and the cameo tight clothes,so he left him and got with Teddy Riley which Bobby Brown actually stated himself.
This whole album was amazing. I only knew because my sister is 11 years older than me and I would watch this VHS visual album play over and over. Yes Bobby had a visual album for every song on VHS. Put some respect on Bobby’s name!
This whole album is UNDERRATED. I saw Bobby In Phx opening up for Toni Tony Tone and he rocked it. Quite a few songs were produced by Larry Blackmon of Cameo and all the bass lines are just sick!
I’ve been looking for this song for years & didn’t know he sung it. I couldn’t think of the artist nor the title. Just the melody. Shoutout to Verzuz!!!
He reminds me of Larry Blackmon of Cameo in this video by the way he's dressed. But then again that's who helped produced his album. A slept on classic here.
Wooow! I didn't watch this video a lot but i appreciate it. I love seing B. Brown doing his thing. Still got that swag. Just a year before "DBC" exploded on the scene and he demolished everything and ushered in New Jack Swing. The King of R&B! 😘😍💞💃💃💕👑👑
This video 😂 Bobby the peeping Tom. I love how Marla Gibbs grabs him at the end dragging him. That Bobby was a bad azz. And I didn't know that Carl Payne aka Cockroach and Cole was in this video. LMAO I love it this video was too adorable.
Damn, I was trying to play the bass part to this song tonight, and it is all over the place. Really moves up and down the scales and has a nice rhythm. I need more practice to do this one.
+antij1 It didn't matter. Bobby was a part of New Edition from the beginning. All of them were and are Street cats. Why Bobby was so successful was because he kept his ear to the streets. He knew what the streets wanted to hear. BabyFace LA Reid and Teddy Riley was his his answer to the streets. Larry Blackman was his answer to the streets. That was just the beginning of what was to come from this guy. Make no mistake about it. Bobby was burning up the charts with Don't Be Cruel. It stayed on the charts for a very lonnnng time. He killed the game back then.
Bobby was the man when he left New Edition. His debut album dont be cruel was dope. Every joint on it was a jam. We was lovin Bobby. And the Jordan 2s had just came out back then.
The Girl Next Door this Bobby Brown Song takes me back because I had a Crush on a Girl that lived next Door to me and everytime I hear this song I think about her She got killed in a Car Wreck we was in 8th Grade so I never had a chance to tell her I had a crush on her R.I.P 😭😭😭 $$ R.L $$
Luved seeing this video 'cause I haven't seen it in awhile, but the New Edition movie reminded me of this song. Just to set the record straight, the girl with the pink pants in the video, "The Girl Next Door", is my younger sister and she is still alive---she did not OD. She got the role by accident as "The Girl Next Door" because the original person who was supposed to play that role never showed up. She was waiting around in that studio for my other younger sister who is also in that video. She is one of the dancers in the middle dressed in white with the light brown hair. Sadly, she died of a cocaine overdose in 1999 in Los Angeles.
@hochokma6891 First of all cool story, it's always cool to get background on some of my favorite 1980s videos and songs. Second, the woman who didn't show up for this video committed career suicide by doing that s***. I wonder would her behind have pulled that s*** on any music videos from the Don't Be Cruel album.
@hochokma6891 Hey, what ever became of your younger sister, the one with the pink pants? Did she leave show business? What did she think of Bobby Brown while she was taping this video? Also, your other sister, the one in the white with light brown hair, and without getting too invasive, but when did she leave showbiz? What was her life like before her death?
This was most definitely a Heart of The 80's kind of Sound.What many like about the 90's sound! Is really a continuation of The 80's.It's more creative instrumentation wise.More Grooves and Melodies.And it often stirs Emotion.Both from the Artists and The listener.And Who better than Ole Bobby Brown to pop off that Official Stylin and Profilin. Sophisticated Hard Hip-Hopish R&B,Pop,Groove Sound of The 80's.
Another favorite song of mines from Bobby that people slept on, at least after the Bobby Brown Story those who did sleep on his talent and songs will come back and look at all these great hits he made
This could easily be a New Edition record. It sounds just like Crucial and if you could put this song on an New Edition, album, HeartBreak would be the one. Anyone agree or disagree?
So this would be right about the time right after he was kicked out of new edition? I wish we got more of bobby brown during this time period in the movie.
damn, with the awesome success Bobby had with his 2nd album. I FORGOT all about this one. and I grew-up in the 80's with him and New Edition...one can clearly HEAR that Larry Blackmon Music Production. from the funk band Cameo.
That my friend would have been a Train Wreck for the Record Books! Joe Jackson ran his family like a well oiled machine. There would have been no place for a rebel like Bobby Brown.
I'm gonna ask you to put on your Thinking Cap. Yes Janet made a song called control,yes Michael made every attempt to be independent of his Family,but I can promise you that a Narcissist and a Control Freak like Poppa Joe will not truly go away. He will remain in The Background and exert control through The Mother. MJ and Janet were his Golden Ticket,and you are mistaken if you think he'd let anybody mess up his money. Isiah Thomas is a similar type character,just when you think they're dead,they come back like Jason or The Terminator.

Didn't know that, but now I can notice Cameo's style on this track. That also explains Bobby wearing that bright red cup Larry wore in his videos lol
Yo! That's crazy! That raises the bar even more! It's all Cameo! So so dope!🔥🔥🔥
Facts but thank God teddy riley n babyface save him
Ohhh… look and sounds like Cameo.
@@jamalyoung-zq9glWord.
Larry Blackmon captured the rough edges of Bobby in this song way before New Jack Swing did. Perfect song and vibe for him.
I so wanted to see Larry in the Bobby Brown movie.
Larry wrote it or created the beat?
@@FleshCatOfficial both
Bobby Brown actually didn't like the music or direction that Blackmon was taking him and the cameo tight clothes,so he left him and got with Teddy Riley which Bobby Brown actually stated himself.
That is very true! He did a really great job! It set the tone for Don't Be Cruel (the snare drums) and My Prerogative.
Go Bobby. The type of music that makes me smile.
This whole album was amazing. I only knew because my sister is 11 years older than me and I would watch this VHS visual album play over and over. Yes Bobby had a visual album for every song on VHS. Put some respect on Bobby’s name!
The 80s will live forever.
This whole album is UNDERRATED. I saw Bobby In Phx opening up for Toni Tony Tone and he rocked it. Quite a few songs were produced by Larry Blackmon of Cameo and all the bass lines are just sick!
Dam never knew that, but now that you mention it this totally sounds like an Cameo song 🕺
whats the album
@@dobrintzvetkovsky7719 "KING OF STAGE"
This song was awesome

The New Edition biography was everything!! Proud of Bobby and the other guys!
That shit was awful.
+Dee Bee Yes! That movie was great.
Igaveyoumyfakename you sound drunk dude stop being a hater

I had the whole tape, 1989. I forgot this song but it is resonating still today. I Love Bobby and the video!
Agreed
Bobby's dance moves are just flames 🔥🔥🔥💯
Whitney said she saw Bobby dancing during a performance and right there she knew she wanted him
Love this video even after so many years! Bobby rocked the world in the 80's.
King of the Stage was a classic album that was slept on!
No...it was an average album that didn't go anywhere because it wasn't very well produced. It got exactly what it deserved.
Manu Ginobilis Bald Spot you sound like a hater
Manu Ginobilis Bald Spot terrible comment. King of Stage was dope. definitely slept on.
Tyler Riley he was 17 when he went solo
Ayona Laquay thanks I still wonder why he got kicked out of new edition
Talented dude yo regardless of his struggle this came easy to him
Bobby Brown / Kadeem Hardison / Brother Ron had the illest non rapper sneaker game back then
kadeem had that fire footwear
Hold This L. Debarge Yes they did!!!!
This beat goes hard even now
I believe people slept on this song and video cuz it was jam
jay butler I wasn’t even thought of back then but bobby was bae !! 😂😂
I agree it is savagely lit bro
ain't that it!!!! this song is still my ish!!!! I dance er'time I listen to it!!! much love to Bobby Brown!!
I loved it

This still goes hard after all these years. Beat and guitar is crazy!!
This beat was HOT!!!!
damn i wasn't even born when this came out ... 80s-90s r&b will always be the best
Brenxo and we had so much fun!!!
Soul love lucky ! I was born in 96 at least I'm still able to enjoy music from this era
Brenxo i was born in 99 me too i like This period
I was born in '71 and yes....the 80's and 90's were tha shit!! Best eras for music!
You right
I remember getting this album for Christmas in 1987. I was 11
Damn Oldshcool lls
The album was released in 1986 like say December?!!
@@jaywad8876 that's right.... not impossible ppl were still buying it 12 months later Xmas 1987
13 years old when this came out
i was a baby back then when this came out
This never gets old
nope...I love some Bobby then and now
One of my favorite songs of Bobby Brown
One of my favorite videos and song from Bobby. So glad he went solo because Bobby is not built to be in a group,
all of them have that NE sound tho.
BOBBY WHOPPING IT OUT!!!!
This is a very underrated 80s song just like those dope air Jordan 2's.
Them Jordans was the hottest from the 80's.
Yep Spandex and air jordans, both the women spandex with L.A gears and or Reebooks, and Men wore spandex as well with Air Jordans.
Plus no laces. Think Will Smith took credit for.
Man…….. air Jordan 2s low key fire and slept on.
@@davidtookes7784 What nationality is Bobby Brown?
This hits way better as adult than a kid when heard this
Its the funk, we have to grow into it!
He got his wop on ..
😁😁😁💯 l saw that ahahah
Do that wop Bobby!!!!...This song was my ish!!!
You can hear Cameo all thru this.
Nicole McMillan just like candy lol
Nicole McMillan its like candy
Produced by them (Larry Blackmon)
Yes indeed ! Cameo all day... That darn Larry !! This is my jam .
Not cameo per she but LARRY BLACK MAN!!!
I’ve been looking for this song for years & didn’t know he sung it. I couldn’t think of the artist nor the title. Just the melody. Shoutout to Verzuz!!!
Classic Bobby...I remember when this came out. How I miss those days
He Didn't Have To Bop That Hard At 3:30🤣🤣🤣!!!!! I'm Reading His Book And It's Super Dope!!!!
Bobby was so lit back in the day💝
He reminds me of Larry Blackmon of Cameo in this video by the way he's dressed. But then again that's who helped produced his album. A slept on classic here.
I was a Bobby Brown fan from jump lol
Bobby is the King of R&B........ Hands down!!!!
He was the true breakout star from the group!
One of my favorite Bobby Brown songs and video! My favorite part is at the 3:30 mark.
This one is tru Bobby brown..I just love the brother..
I don't care what nobody says, I love this Dude and all of his music.
shame how his love of drugs destroyed him and Whitney. They were so great.
@@waynewesterfield2130man stop with that negativity shit! He's still rocking it and healthy Whitney is dead where just tryna enjoy his music
Bobby was that dude back in those days. Extremely talented.
King of Stage!!
Who's here two steppin after Keith Sweat Versuz Bobby Brown?? 🤗
Go Bobby!!
ANOTHER CERTIFIED CLASSIC 🔥 🔥 BANGER
His personal shines through on this track! 💪🏿
When music was real
kimberly williams agreed
Did anybody notice bobby roccin the Air Jordan II's
+Akeem Cooper back then Jordans cost $99.99
Akeem Cooper Always saw that
he stayed wit a pair of JORDYS
Hell yea LOL
Hell yeah
His 1st album was pretty good. But the 2nd one was pure gold.
Wooow! I didn't watch this video a lot but i appreciate it. I love seing B. Brown doing his thing. Still got that swag. Just a year before "DBC" exploded on the scene and he demolished everything and ushered in New Jack Swing. The King of R&B! 😘😍💞💃💃💕👑👑
This video 😂 Bobby the peeping Tom. I love how Marla Gibbs grabs him at the end dragging him. That Bobby was a bad azz. And I didn't know that Carl Payne aka Cockroach and Cole was in this video. LMAO I love it this video was too adorable.
Lashay Davis and that cole ended up with one of bobby's baby mamas in real life too lol
Damn, I was trying to play the bass part to this song tonight, and it is all over the place. Really moves up and down the scales and has a nice rhythm. I need more practice to do this one.
Kelly Lucas I loooove the bass line!!! Im a musician/ keyboard player. The bass line on the verse is wicked just like chorus is dope!
Those Cameo basslines are always tough.
Dope!!!
yup all over good way put it
MAN! I CAN LISTEN TO THIS FOREVER AND NEVER GET TIRED OF IT, LET PUT THIS ON REPEAT FOR AT LEAST A THOUSAND TIME
Me too!!!!
Underrated song definitely
Bobby Brown has always stood out he has that it factor
The day I turned 21, before I went to the club. I watched the video all day to learn how to whop. Air Jordan II my favorites.
Classic joint 💯🥃
Bobby Brown was Smashing R and B hit songs with this and his Don't be cruel album Classic R and b music
He was so handsome back then❤️
This guy bobby had sooooo many fire hits!!!
so nobody ain't see Cole from martin tho?
lol yep I was just about to say Cockroach
Cockroach also happens to be Bobby's son's stepfather. 😨😨😨
I wonder if that's where he and Landon's mother 1st met; just curious???
@ Chanda..Wow, I didn't know that!
Edrick Jordan you go
Real good vibes!!! Classic.
Yall notice that Bobby was the first (or one of) you'd sing and incorporate rap into his songs.
New Edition did a lot of that and then Bobby went solo and incorporated it in his songs.
Drake may have been inspired by Bobby Brown.
+antij1 It didn't matter. Bobby was a part of New Edition from the beginning. All of them were and are Street cats. Why Bobby was so successful was because he kept his ear to the streets.

+Edwin Hayes Ain't nothing new under the sun. Ecclesiastes.
Edwin Hayes
LOL. True.
Bobby was the man when he left New Edition. His debut album dont be cruel was dope. Every joint on it was a jam. We was lovin Bobby. And the Jordan 2s had just came out back then.
King of the Stage(this song was on it) was his debut album. Don't Be Cruel was his sophomore release.
This album and video in particular was his introduction to heroin. He could've been much more successful had he just said NO! 😢 Sad
You're right, i forgot about that one
Don't be cruel wasn't his debut album that was his second, his debut album was king of stage and this song is on that album
That was not his debut album...this was before don't be cruel
Those Jordan 2s B Brown was always ahead of the game,
2:52 Bobby Raps 😎🤟🏾
Way back when Bobby was super fine
He was good looking back then, & a great dancer go Bobby!
The Girl Next Door this Bobby Brown Song takes me back because I had a Crush on a Girl that lived next Door to me and everytime I hear this song I think about her She got killed in a Car Wreck we was in 8th Grade so I never had a chance to tell her I had a crush on her R.I.P 😭😭😭 $$ R.L $$
The King of R&B in my book
Man I remember being 4 yrs old and be totally obsessed with Bobby Brown ...
Good song. Young Bobby had it going on.
But them bars tho! Bobby Brown was everything and more than these singing rappers ever thought about being. #ThemNEBoys ... The first to ever do it.
Luved seeing this video 'cause I haven't seen it in awhile, but the New Edition movie reminded me of this song. Just to set the record straight, the girl with the pink pants in the video, "The Girl Next Door", is my younger sister and she is still alive---she did not OD.

@3:30 that's it Bobby whop it out!-lol
I JUST said the exact same fraise verbatim !... That is CRAZY !!!😎
My favorite part lol
Who's jamming this wit me in 2021
GO BOBBYYYYY 💕
🙋🏽♀️
Cole from Martin all up in this🤣💜
This was most definitely a Heart of The 80's kind of Sound.What many like about the 90's sound!

Is anyone going to comment on the Larry Blackman influenced style of this video? I know he produced this single. LOL
Sounds like a Cameo song but for the youth got that "just like candy" sound.
Barton Taylor thank God Babyface n la teddy Riley save him from this wackass sound
Another favorite song of mines from Bobby that people slept on, at least after the Bobby Brown Story those who did sleep on his talent and songs will come back and look at all these great hits he made
Classic 😍😍
This and don't be cruel are my favorites. I had the cassette tape that popped because I rewound this song so much!
I love Bobby Brown he made good to go solo
the full Larry Blackmond touch including the dressing his jacket and colours
yea they shoulda released this as the single before girlfriend, funky, upbeat, and happy while capturing some of bobby’s “edginess” before DBC.
bobby, wish I was the girl next door...back in the day
This could easily be a New Edition record. It sounds just like Crucial and if you could put this song on an New Edition, album, HeartBreak would be the one. Anyone agree or disagree?
KING BOBBY.
Best song ever
Very underrated, especially for young folks! My teenage sons never even heard this until a few months ago.
Bobby will always be the "Man" 💙
So this would be right about the time right after he was kicked out of new edition? I wish we got more of bobby brown during this time period in the movie.
Love u Bobby Brown 2020 💜
damn, with the awesome success Bobby had with his 2nd album. I FORGOT all about this one. and I grew-up in the 80's with him and New Edition...one can clearly HEAR that Larry Blackmon Music Production. from the funk band Cameo.
Memories!!!! I remember when I got this album!! Love me some Bobby!
I used to luv this song!!
Lol, I remember when I was the new girl on my block.
He was r. kelly before kellz the original bad 👦🏽 of r&b.🤘🏽👌🏽 🚩.
Rocking the original Skinny Jeans LOL
back then they was called skater or rocker pants lol. oops showing my age
+Savannah Hubbard lmao yesssssss cause I didn't even know that lol
+Ruetrip1 lol hursh
LOL, LOL..
Ruetrip1 umm dat was gay even back then lol
His Jordan 2s are fresh af
+Jesteristic Gamin yep and ironically he's married to his ex girlfriend now
+Jesteristic Gamin replied to the wrong comment
who cares
Bobby rocking the Jordan 2's & Yoga Pants lol
charlie singleton on background vocals. U GO CAMEO !!!!
I want some dude to make a bop like this with this type energy
This was bobby ft
cameo lol ..very funky ..in fact funky as hell ..one of my favs from bobby ..
At the time Bob said this song was about Janet Jackson who was his neighbor. I guess Janet got away,but he got Whitney. Not bad.
question, what if Bobby Brown married Janet Jackson, I'm just asking what would happen if they did if they were back in the 80s
That my friend would have been a Train Wreck for the Record Books! Joe Jackson ran his family like a well oiled machine.
There would have been no place for a rebel like Bobby Brown.
+Ralph 328 Chauncey St. Joe Jackson was way out the picture by that time
I'm gonna ask you to put on your Thinking Cap. Yes Janet made a song called control,yes Michael made every attempt to be independent of his Family,but I can promise you that a Narcissist and a Control Freak like Poppa Joe will not truly go away.
He will remain in The Background and exert control through The Mother.
MJ and Janet were his Golden Ticket,and you are mistaken if you think he'd let anybody mess up his money.
Isiah Thomas is a similar type character,just when you think they're dead,they come back like Jason or The Terminator.
+Ralph 328 Chauncey St. Well Janet was taken. She was with Rene Elizondo who became her second husband.
