The Dells were a singing group that was a powerful presence in the music industry back in those days when music was real, about true love, family, friends, community and peace. A fight was a fist fight and not a shooting. Man those days no longer exist.
Lawd she tried to fight it 😂😂😂 …..but when Eddie hit that note you can feel it!! One of the best scenes ever…had me in tears of joy & im not afraid to admit it
But the father had a look that says, he will not change his wicked ways. He eventually did, but not before killing and being doped up. Which is more important?
Man I just love how when Duck push the guy off piano, his brother JT and Dressa is right behind him and has his back like “We just tryna sing but if you wanna do it we can do it” .
This movie doesn’t get the credit it deserves! This will forever be a classic can watch it over and over as if it’s my first time watching it!… Robert Townsend did a great job
I'm a soprano and a Pastors Daughter 🙌🏾 Sleep in Paradise ♥️Rev Lee W. Lavernge , so my heart will forever cheer for choir boy when he comes out and hit that high note 💫
THIS MOVIE IS A MASTERPIECE! SO MANY HIDDEN GEMS JUST IN THIS CLIP. 1. When Eddie jumps down with the look of anger in his eyes. 2. How he keeps looking and shawty in the red like (bi@ch, u dun f'd up now) 3. After Eddie kisses her, dude behind her stops awkwardly clapping and is in awe like: WTF? 4. Flash having a moment realization. 5. Big Red's eyes lighting up with money signs like Mr. Krabs 6. Some random dude in the back (around the -1.00 mark) yelling out something like "That Bass is killing it"
CLASSIC!!!! When he hit that first long note, he made his MAMA feel it, and with PRIDE she forgot where she was and who was around her and jumped to her feet saying THAT'S MY BABY!!!! Tears drop from my eyes because I know that there is no greater feeling than making your Ma/Dad that proud of you!❤ I take this personally because both of my parents are gone... I miss and love them so much and if I could go back in time to the points in my life where I made them feel this way, I would be so happy! He hit that first note drawing courage and strength from his mother and she immediately stood up and sent that MOTHER'S LOVE straight to her son!
"Aw,he ain't nobody!" - random audience member. I swear to God,I don't know why that part ALWAYS cracks me up. But,I still got this movie on VHS,had the soundtrack on tape,and oh my God - the memories of watching it on TV for the first time ❤🖤🤎🖤❤
This gotta be the greatest acapella singing of all time! Ive this a thousand times...tho its a fictional movie, can you even fathom the powerful harmonizing sounds of the group accompanied by the energy of the crowd!?! This whole scene is Oscar worthy hands down!
Best Black Movie ever made IMO,it showed black based teamwork,trials & struggles with systemic racism which we deal with today,the resiliency of (certain)black people back then & today.
@@chocolatepower11 Please check the credits- the character's last name is listed as King, he just pronounced it with a country accent. In fact, there's a video I saw where either the actor or Robert Townsend confirmed is King.

Funny you say Michael Wright (Eddie) sounds like David Ruffin since his castmate, Leon (J.T.) played Ruffin in The Temptations mini-series. And before the naysayers get started, I know it's The Dells doing the actual singing, not Mr. Wright.
2024 anyone?
Yep
Yes 🙌🏾

Yep ❤❤❤

Poetic Nation that’s a fact bro especially when choir boy comes out and sits that note and flashes reaction in the audience
Skyler Williams
I hear you - So true. This whole scene seems/feels like part of documentary (It hits a note in me every time)
He was playing the hell out of the piano, game time. Classic
I agree, so true.

@@Albert-g6c The Dells sang some of the songs, and they helped inspire parts of the movie, but it's not based on them. It was inspired by other groups of that era as well.
This is based on a real group just like the temptation,, go back in time and open the arkive back in the day that's all sweetie 🥰
@@Albert-g6c
It was based on the Dells...
I don't know how Robert Towns came up with this Scene let alone the whole entire movie. Pure Genius... I swear I can play ever person in this part
He wanted it to be more of a comedy but after interviewing The Dells he saw how rough it was for them. The Dells sing this song also.
FAX just like he did meteor man.... That man kreative
Most of my life i thought this was a real group.... Until i realized they was just performing the same songs.... Didn't find out till i was 19.... Im 33
Don’t forget about Keenen Ivory Wayans
Robert Townsend
Can't nobody sang like Eddie Kane Jr, that's a fact.
But Choir Boy came off the top rope lol
Eddie King 👑
That is very true no lies detected! But I think this time choir boy for the 🏆

Flash looking at Eddie like Vegeta looking at Super Saiyan Goku for the first time.

PERFECT my boi.... PERFECT. @Joshua Perez

This scene was MAGICAL!!
Thank you Mighty Dells for the song.
Church boy definitely delivered towards the end yessir 👏🏾👏🏾😅
That mom jumped up with her arms stretched out like she was getting saved! 🤣🤣🤣
But the father had a look that says, he will not change his wicked ways. He eventually did, but not before killing and being doped up. Which is more important?
She saw the heavens of gates open up
LMFAOOO
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
still get chills when Eddie starts singing man! This and I feel like going on, two of my favorite song scenes
Facts facts facts
True
Is Otis Williams song on The Temptations the other one ?
Man I just love how when Duck push the guy off piano, his brother JT and Dressa is right behind him and has his back like “We just tryna sing but if you wanna do it we can do it” .
Now I want to watch this movie. That man in audience is fineeeeeee❤
This will be a nice movie to put back in the movies again for it anniversary
This part always gives me goosebumps
Classically Legendary ❤❤❤ 1:50
It was nice to see the smile on his father's face. Priceless
This movie doesn’t get the credit it deserves! This will forever be a classic can watch it over and over as if it’s my first time watching it!… Robert Townsend did a great job
JT and Dresser coming to Duck's aid just in case someone had something to say about him taking over the piano. Love.
Shout out to the real voice behind Eddie Kane, the one and only Marvin Junior!!!!!
You just dropped some knowledge on me fam
@@spencermoore90 I got you!!!!!
Movie voice of Eddie King is Billy Valentine….Soundtrack song is Marvin from the Dells🫡
Eddie King’s singing voice was performed by William “Billy” Valentine.
I were listening at this song on October 27,24 and it sounded good at1:55 a.m.
I GET CHILLS EVERY TIME THAT EDDIE KANE GRABS THAT MIC & SING. SUCH RAW, UNDENIABLE PASSION
I'm a soprano and a Pastors Daughter 🙌🏾 Sleep in Paradise ♥️Rev Lee W. Lavernge , so my heart will forever cheer for choir boy when he comes out and hit that high note 💫
Chills EVERYTIME Ol Eddie Kang starts singing

EDDIE TOOK THAT NOTE TO A WHOLE NEW LEVEL
This is my second favorite scene in the movie. Did Eddie make Bird's cousin cream herself. The way she was twisting in the seat 😂
I believe he did lol. I always thought that every time I watch this scene lol
Slippery when wet 💦
Now that's the SHIT Rio u ain't never lied homie...

6. Some random dude in the back (around the -1.00 mark) yelling out something like "That Bass is killing it"
Is this when Flash decided he wanted to be a Heartbeat?
The way Eddie hit that high note he got everyone attention they knew from that point they were nothing to play with
