@@emmaary964Nah fr that's what I thought when I was looking at Bobby's old videos. Woody played that image of who Bobby Brown is supposed to be better than the real person
Just like Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers, The Valentinos aka The Womack Brothers, The Jackson 5 aka The Jackson Brothers, New Edition and now Bone Thugs-N-Harmony
The young boy played "Ralph" studied his role to the T! He has Ralphs mannerisms facial expressions hand movement everything just WOW!!! I'm literally in tears this was long overdue!
I can’t believe these were kids with a dream and basically made it all happen for themselves by themselves. No adults orchestrated their dreams. They did. Solely them. Inspiring.
Amazing and so inspiring! I'm taken a back every time I watched. And their still inspiring till this day and executing inspiring performances. These babies have been through it all.
Yes, Brooke only shaped their dream and kept them on track, they advocated and planned and aspired and worked on their own. From age 12. It's incredible.
It's so amazing to see how the Jacksons inspired New Edition and New Edition inspired Boyz II Men etc. Mentorship and passing on history is important. Boyz II Men deserve a biopic now.
They had three leads at the time. There's always a blessing and a curse to having so much talent in one group. The blessing is the diversity in songs and artistic expression, not to mention the ladies who choose their favorites. Friendly Competition is good, but competitive resentment, and jealousy can ruin a group because no one wants to be The public announcement for R.Kelly. The good thing is they grew up together and are like family, unlike let's say An Envogue who couldn't get past their differences.
Ralph is a boss. I see why they said he was a leader. He made a definitive choice to put food on the tables of all his friends if this is true You can't buy that kind of loyalty
Yes Ralph is the true Goat. But I love them all I’m sorry without him this wouldn’t of been possible Only one who could sing out of here original was Ricky. He loved his friends and to me they accept like they don’t fool with him now as they got older. That’s my opinion and what I got out of listening to his interviews after this biopic came out.
I love this group since I was 11 . My generation. Love it so. I loved the whole group. But I had the crush on Ronnie Devoe. I love him the best. Just my pick. Love this movie.
This is the best BET movie ever made. Everything was done correctly , it was like we were watching the real 'new edition', the actors did a great job and the costumes were on point
This what you get when the subject artists are fully involved. Each of the guys and they families took the characters in to school em and it showed on screen
I feel bad that he got fired for something that he had no control over. He actually reminds me of my Dad. He seems like a loving father figure in the boys' lives.
Yes, and I hated the way their parents treated him knowing they wasn’t buying them clothes for the talent shows or giving them money to eat. He was good to them but he didn’t know the music business but was just trying to help them truthfully from the heart and that second manager cheated them bad and he knew the business
There's a video on UA-cam of Jahi singing onstage at a concert with Ralph Tresvant!! Its from 4 years ago right after the New Edition movie. Type Jahi Winston Ralph Tresvant in the UA-cam search. Enjoy!
Ralph was sooo loyal 😮 we all need a Ralph in our lives. He worked his butt off singing to make sure his friends families was taken care of. Wow. I hope they remember him. He is the “voice of reason” for NE. Family ❤.
New Edition was way before their time..Thirty years later those bruthas should be very proud of themselves..One of the GREATEST R&B GROUPS OF ALL TIME✊🏽
I actually shed a tear when I watch the younger versions of them. These young black men are so talented they really did well with the casting. Caleb (Ricky) really was my favorite he killed “holding on”.

@@supotnabaog after long hours of research and a UA-cam comment that was posted on this video, the song at 7:21 isn’t the original song. The song here was by the untouchables in the movie, can’t find this song anywhere but however the original song is called “ Spell “ by Blue Magic. You can hear the similarities. The song in the movie sung by the untouchables is their own version.
Can we talk about Caleb for a second because his acting was phenomenal. He really took his character in the right direction and the directors definitely did a good job letting him showcase his singing talent before Ralph became known as the lead singer. I think Caleb should’ve gotten more roles that had singing in it because he really has talent and I wish he could do more roles like that.

“idk where you from man but we don’t get down like that here” i respect every member of new edition but for ralph to be so mature abt the decision and making sure all his friends got to eat, and at such a young age, i respect him the most for that
This movie is always so emotional for me to watch being in love with these 6 men sense my childhood in the 80s. They were so much apart my generation no words can explain the impact they had on my life💖
One of the best Biopics I've ever seen. All the members told their story, that rarely happens. The accuracy was definitely there. I'm not good with names but all the people involved were wonderful. Thanks for delivering a beautiful story.
@Rakia Withers ...actually Bobby Brown said in an interview that his character wasn’t portrayed 💯 correctly. The group saw him in this light & he says he felt it was exaggerated. But to keep peace, he allowed them to have their way
Accuracy was not there. They forgot NE's original members. Travis, Corey & Giovanni. Travis actually started the group and brought in Brooke to be the choreographer.
@@CleanMusicLover229 I believe you. I think most biopics aren’t 💯 accurate, maybe to avoid lawsuits. If u watched the Temptations biopic & read their biography book (like I did), they definitely changed a lot of details.
Tears filled my eyes when the mother's had to vote out the manager it broke my heart to see how they worked hard and grow up only to get nothing that made me heavy
@@asiawilliams9316 there ain’t too many friends like that. I wished I had friends like that. I’m 30 years old and it seems no matter who I call my friend I get disappointed
This movie, Ray, The Temptations, & Jackson’s American Dream show how PHENOMENAL a biographical movie can be when A. The stars have a part in the writing and casting of the script and B. When they’re not afraid to tell the unadulterated TRUTH no matter how ugly or beautiful it may be ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I’m genuinely surprised this docu series didn’t get nominated for any emmys or golden globes or let alone win anything 🙄 the actors did what had to be done and the show kept my attention.
Thats because they not the new kids on the block. U know the toys sold at toys r us merchandise they never released for new edition. Aka systemic economic suicide vs new kids on the block economic survival. The worlds greatest entertainer michael jackson had to break mtv barrier against black musicians.
@Mz Thompsun mz thompson that idea you have can be manifested by yourself and its cheap you can go live and have a virtual vote by registered members and you can charge (once it gains momentum) corporate followers to advertise on your platform. Its fairly cheap in 2021.
Exactly. But are we really surprised though? 😒 It’s because they’re black and just like other great films with predominantly black cast or about black people, they’re sort of categorized as just “black films” rather than just “great films” by white Hollywood Press and white Hollywood.
Hello nice to meet you how are you doing today how is the weather over there you really look so nice on your profile how is your family hope they are fine?🌹🌹🌹
I remember when we were young we used to play on the street every minute we had, this movie brings memories. Last time i visited the village i was raised, the street were empty, no playing kids whatsoever, it's sad.
i could literally watch this everyday for the rest of my life. i never miss a day. they're so inspiring , especially considering the fact that I've always loved dancing and I've always made up dance routines and loved learning full dances. i watch this so much I've learned the dances to "holding on" and "the love you save"
Yes, he's a great actor. I'm happy he got the chance and is now getting more work. Also, he was killing it with those dance moves in the reunion concert scenes! He had all the energy of the real BobbyB.
What's amazing is that when I bought my tickets to the New Edition concerts the tickets were $15.00 and they were killing it. Outperforming Kool and the Gang, Force M.D's, and Cherelle with Alexander O'Neal. Yeah, that was on the same show and they were all over the stage. Bobby Brown was acting out, jumping on top of the loudspeakers on the side of the stage. It was a show for real. In Chicago, at the U.I.C. Pavillion, it was a train ride for 20 minutes and memories that I fondly keep til this day. Just didn't know that when I rode the train back home to the westside of Chicago that my home was more peaceful than the projects that the group returned to. They were horribly taken advantage of.
@@braa6014 I definitely agree with u. I'm 18, but I actually just saw them yesterday at their concert and they are still amazing! Definitely go see them if they're by ur area
"If It Isn't Love" why do I feel this way? There aren't many true biography movies that I go crazy about but The New Edition Story is one that I will watch over & over. The whole effort to bring this together is appreciated. This is a staple and for the actors to be able to experience living legends and learn what they went through & did for our culture to tribute New Edition's success singing and dancing all of their classic hits is legendary. They deserved something that was going to represent them in the best way. Loved. 🖤👑💋💯
When they performed infront of the car on the spot, this is called determination, they was born to perform, that just took me by surpise. I saw this somewhere before, i guess im speaking about myself as a child. I was always trying. To everyone in the world, try and try and keep trying
Finally after 3 years after its premiering this is finally on UA-cam, and that's pretty awesome since yesterday, Monday, and Sunday marks the 4-year anniversary of The New Edition Story 😀
I'm just looking forward to the Jodeci biopic next year or 2026. I hope that they're done with the film cause it's taking forever. The producers of the New Editon movie are producing film that's supposed come on BET or VH1.
I love seeing the grind it took to even be put on to even record a song or get signed! Those boys literally “got it out the mud” so much repetition and attention was paid to their craft as performers. Unlike today all you have to do is post a video on UA-cam or have a certain look but no actual talent is necessary! I think that’s why music suffers today.😣❤️
Just remembered why bet pissed me off before yall make no damn sence part 2 is 3 min long no one paying 10 dollars when yall dont even drop or release good movies Netflix gets it I dont understand what's the point of releasing a movie only in the states ???? Fire an rehire who ever there

Especially the kid they cast as Bobby, looks exactly like him.
They KILLED IT! So proud of the little ones 😚
Only kid Mike and kid Bobby
@@Darknezz365 I agree, the kids did great plus they had to have tutors on set. So they were actually doing school and work .
The transitions from little boys to teenagers is bone chilling incredible. BOYS TO YOUNG MEN.
the police guy went like this 😐 and slowly turned around like "did anybody else see this?" 😂
Ye I said that they sung so hard that they hit puberty mid song
Just like Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers, The Valentinos aka The Womack Brothers, The Jackson 5 aka The Jackson Brothers, New Edition and now Bone Thugs-N-Harmony
Boys to Men
One of my favorite songs of theirs of all time
OMG the fact that Ralph was true to everyone and would not do anything without them....WHAT A TRUE HERO !!!!
They are like family...Together they are HOT!..Even today, They Rockin' it.
The truest!!
1:08:56
Ralph reminds me of Krayzie Bone of Bone Thugs
Single handedly changed life's trajectory for everyone in and associated with the group... A living legend.
THAT TRANSFORMATION FROM KIDS TO TEEN WAS SO FYE🥰🥰
we love a good transition sequence lol
It was pretty much flawless
The best I've ever seen. I had to watch that part several times.
YESS🔥
The best part!!!🥰
This WHOLE cast deserves to be awarded from the mothers to the group
Word
Agree
Right, that was Lala's best role
YES! And I was just thinking of how crucial the mother's roles in this biopic are.
No the hell they don't! You bugging!

Exactly! My favorite
You can tell he was determined and dedicated

@@braa6014 I loved every minute of it. Not to bragg but he reminded me of myself! I know all of NE dance moves, BBD , and Ralph 😂
I can’t believe these were kids with a dream and basically made it all happen for themselves by themselves. No adults orchestrated their dreams. They did. Solely them. Inspiring.
And thata what was so unique about new edition. Not the typical story. I knew this story would be special if told right
Amazing and so inspiring! I'm taken a back every time I watched.

Self-made talent. Very hard to come by in this day and age.
They did well for themselves. 💗
That scene when they transition from boys to men was smooth asf, and the British guard was like wth is going on.

The manager is my favorite out of everyone.
He looked at Bobby when he said don't try to outshine everyone else, great foreshadow with what we already know happened.
They had three leads at the time. There's always a blessing and a curse to having so much talent in one group. The blessing is the diversity in songs and artistic expression, not to mention the ladies who choose their favorites. Friendly Competition is good, but competitive resentment, and jealousy can ruin a group because no one wants to be The public announcement for R.Kelly. The good thing is they grew up together and are like family, unlike let's say An Envogue who couldn't get past their differences.

You can't buy that kind of loyalty
Yes Ralph is the true Goat. But I love them all
I’m sorry without him this wouldn’t of been possible
Only one who could sing out of here original was Ricky. He loved his friends and to me they accept like they don’t fool with him now as they got older. That’s my opinion and what I got out of listening to his interviews after this biopic came out.

This movie is always so emotional for me to watch being in love with these 6 men sense my childhood in the 80s. They were so much apart my generation no words can explain the impact they had on my life💖
Same here and I'm 43 now# team Ralph since I was a kid
It’s emotional for me as well. Growing up in Boston and being there at the talent shows from day one. I have seen this idk how many times.
Me too! Im also 43.. they were the first concert Ive ever seen. I begged my mom to let my cousin take me. I'm so sad they didn't make any flow 😔
@@Sky_moondance They were my first concert too. Them Cherelle, and Force MDs 1986🙌🏾
I loved the movie. The guy who played the first manager was the bomb. The cast was outstanding .
One of the best Biopics I've ever seen. All the members told their story, that rarely happens. The accuracy was definitely there. I'm not good with names but all the people involved were wonderful. Thanks for delivering a beautiful story.
Yea BET invested well in the NE & Bobby series. They didn’t take many shortcuts. Lots of good footage.
@Rakia Withers ...actually Bobby Brown said in an interview that his character wasn’t portrayed 💯 correctly. The group saw him in this light & he says he felt it was exaggerated. But to keep peace, he allowed them to have their way
I wish salt n lepta would have cut a deal with BET Lifetime was not the move ... they left out spin
Accuracy was not there. They forgot NE's original members. Travis, Corey & Giovanni. Travis actually started the group and brought in Brooke to be the choreographer.
@@CleanMusicLover229 I believe you. I think most biopics aren’t 💯 accurate, maybe to avoid lawsuits. If u watched the Temptations biopic & read their biography book (like I did), they definitely changed a lot of details.
Why do I watch this like I haven’t seen it 10,000 times
Same. It's addictive
Great biopic and y'all know how biopics usually turn out. I literally cannot wait for P2 and P3
Lol right
Because $500 and a beta max machine.
I literally watch this like 2xs a day😭😭
Tears filled my eyes when the mother's had to vote out the manager it broke my heart to see how they worked hard and grow up only to get nothing that made me heavy
Till this day their moves are precise. You can see why, it was drilled into them. I’m so proud to have grown up in this era.
The two of them singing Earth Wind and Fire to a girl in a playground is just everything 😂
i love it it's so beautiful 😭
One of my favorite scenes of the film haha
I still can’t believe it’s been 4 years since this came out ❤️🥺🥺
Damn Fr I see The kid from Strange Things But younger so ik dis was sum time back
I was shocked to see that too. seems like its been just 2 yrs at most.
Ralph a legend cuz he didn't sell his boys out 💯 !!!
Now That's what you call a friend
Nah he stupid they wouldn't have done it for him sometimes you gotta be selfish.
@@barronhawthorne6137 he probably would’ve have been as big as he is if he got the solo deal

@@asiawilliams9316 there ain’t too many friends like that. I wished I had friends like that. I’m 30 years old and it seems no matter who I call my friend I get disappointed
I love this movie I can watch it again and again. This is real life.
I luv the New Edition Story
Memories 😭
ME TOO
Me to. I used to watch it almost everyday
Are they going to come out with the second part??
@@szalovver sure hope so!
I love the New Edition Story. I watched it about 6 times 😂❤️❤️
Me too
Times that by 3, and that's how many times I've seen this. Can watch it all day.
Me too
I watched the whole series for a week straight back in September lol
@@ARenae-vo4ch Whoa! That beats ME!😂
This movie, Ray, The Temptations, & Jackson’s American Dream show how PHENOMENAL a biographical movie can be when A. The stars have a part in the writing and casting of the script and B. When they’re not afraid to tell the unadulterated TRUTH no matter how ugly or beautiful it may be ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
This was perfectly casted. From beginning to end..
Hello beautiful angel ❤️ how you doing today
New edition music this the end love I that song
@@aliyahlixo6997 hello
I’m genuinely surprised this docu series didn’t get nominated for any emmys or golden globes or let alone win anything 🙄 the actors did what had to be done and the show kept my attention.
Thats because they not the new kids on the block. U know the toys sold at toys r us merchandise they never released for new edition. Aka systemic economic suicide vs new kids on the block economic survival. The worlds greatest entertainer michael jackson had to break mtv barrier against black musicians.
Emmy and Golden Globes was made by and for white people
@Mz Thompsun mz thompson that idea you have can be manifested by yourself and its cheap you can go live and have a virtual vote by registered members and you can charge (once it gains momentum) corporate followers to advertise on your platform. Its fairly cheap in 2021.
It was a good movie...
Exactly. But are we really surprised though? 😒
It’s because they’re black and just like other great films with predominantly black cast or about black people, they’re sort of categorized as just “black films” rather than just “great films” by white Hollywood Press and white Hollywood.
I would LOVE to see a male R&B group these days that have this level of performance... classic dance moves, well dressed, wonderful voices, etc.
not going to happen!
@@rosalyngolden135 ummm... sure, okay Ms. Lady.
The group wan mor is something like that
@@guardthegoat5925 I follow them on Instagram - they sound like their parents! I love them 😁
I wish we won't get those anymore... little girls aren't little girls anymore and boys nowadays aren't singing
1:02:43 is the smoothest transition I’ve ever seen for a movie like this 😆
Ikr 😅
My favorite part
😂I literally just came to rewatch this scene on repeat!!
I agree. ❤🔥🥇
@@bijoumwaurasame I come to watch it at least twice a week 😂
I'm glad new edition getting the recognition they deserve after all they went through.

Moral of the NE story: reading (your contract) is fundamental.

@@derrickwright5728bruhhh 😂😂😂😂😂
I remember being in awe of New Edition's talent they paved the way for young stars!
I just realized the actor playing Ricky as a kid is my boy from Stranger Things
That's what's up good show too.
His name Caleb McLaughlin ☺️(spelled his last name wrong)
Yep, he sure is.
U know they only cast from a certain actor pools " if u okay the game"
My 81yr old mother watched the whole movie with me and she loved it.
Hello nice to meet you how are you doing today how is the weather over there you really look so nice on your profile how is your family hope they are fine?🌹🌹🌹
That kid that played Ron Devoe's brother was so funny!!! LoLOL
Yea, I liked him too. Typical pesky kid brother/sister.
“HAHAHA HAAHAHAHA LOSERRR!” 36:33
That's my favorite part. Lol
the child actors absolutely killed it. 😳
I remember when we were young we used to play on the street every minute we had, this movie brings memories. Last time i visited the village i was raised, the street were empty, no playing kids whatsoever, it's sad.
I really grew up dancing and singing to new edition😭 this mini documentary was everything
I like how Ralph and his sister went Christmas shopping.
That Scene Breaks My Heart.
i could literally watch this everyday for the rest of my life. i never miss a day. they're so inspiring , especially considering the fact that I've always loved dancing and I've always made up dance routines and loved learning full dances. i watch this so much I've learned the dances to "holding on" and "the love you save"
Yassssss, preach !!
From Bobby to trying to kill Tariq, great acting right there
Broo😂
Literally the best break out star
🤣🤣😐
Yes, he's a great actor. I'm happy he got the chance and is now getting more work. Also, he was killing it with those dance moves in the reunion concert scenes! He had all the energy of the real BobbyB.
😀
What's amazing is that when I bought my tickets to the New Edition concerts the tickets were $15.00 and they were killing it. Outperforming Kool and the Gang, Force M.D's, and Cherelle with Alexander O'Neal. Yeah, that was on the same show and they were all over the stage. Bobby Brown was acting out, jumping on top of the loudspeakers on the side of the stage. It was a show for real.
In Chicago, at the U.I.C. Pavillion, it was a train ride for 20 minutes and memories that I fondly keep til this day. Just didn't know that when I rode the train back home to the westside of Chicago that my home was more peaceful than the projects that the group returned to. They were horribly taken advantage of.
UIC!
that’s so cool that you got to experience them live. sometimes I wish I was born earlier, I would’ve love to see them perform and many other ppl lol.
@@braa6014 I definitely agree with u. I'm 18, but I actually just saw them yesterday at their concert and they are still amazing! Definitely go see them if they're by ur area
Heyyyyy Chitown 👋🏽 Mannn I bet that was a HELLUVA show! 👀🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was a classic like The American Dream🥰🥰🥰 THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB WITH THIS BIOPIC 🥰👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
"If It Isn't Love" why do I feel this way? There aren't many true biography movies that I go crazy about but The New Edition Story is one that I will watch over & over. The whole effort to bring this together is appreciated. This is a staple and for the actors to be able to experience living legends and learn what they went through & did for our culture to tribute New Edition's success singing and dancing all of their classic hits is legendary. They deserved something that was going to represent them in the best way. Loved. 🖤👑💋💯
This should've won many many many awards cause it is ICONIC
🗣This whole production is solid *Gold* !!
They recreated the *80’s* just how I remembered! 💯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I wish they had re-created Orchard Park correctly...
@@clickshot17 🗣 *I couldn’t comment on that as I’m from the U.K!*
@@clickshot17 where did they go wrong ?
When they performed infront of the car on the spot, this is called determination, they was born to perform, that just took me by surpise. I saw this somewhere before, i guess im speaking about myself as a child. I was always trying. To everyone in the world, try and try and keep trying
You could argue no other group has lead DIRECTLY to as many successful solo artists and groups as New Edition.
Finally after 3 years after its premiering this is finally on UA-cam, and that's pretty awesome since yesterday, Monday, and Sunday marks the 4-year anniversary of The New Edition Story 😀
4 years now. This movie is a while preschooler lol
4 years. I was 11 when this came out I’m 16 now. I feel old😭😭
I was still 10 but was turning 11 in February in 2017, I'm 14 years old now, about to turn 15 in February this year
@@modinka194 lol😂😂😂really wild!

yesss
YES!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤
the transition part gets me everytime 😭❤️ i think that’s the best part in the movie love all of them 😍
Yaasss! 🙌🏾 I love it!
This single handedly got us to watch BET again ❤
I'm just looking forward to the Jodeci biopic next year or 2026. I hope that they're done with the film cause it's taking forever. The producers of the New Editon movie are producing film that's supposed come on BET or VH1.
This is with the jacksons American dream,the temptations, whats love got to do with it,ray,get on up the classic bio pics
I agree!
You forgot the 5 heartbeats
@@jaxj9813 absolutely right and the 5 heartbeats cus thats too much of a classic!! Long like eddie king jr
I love seeing the grind it took to even be put on to even record a song or get signed! Those boys literally “got it out the mud” so much repetition and attention was paid to their craft as performers. Unlike today all you have to do is post a video on UA-cam or have a certain look but no actual talent is necessary! I think that’s why music suffers today.😣❤️
Make part 2, and who ever made this stay blessed.
Ikr! WTF MAAAAN! 😄
um this biopic aired in 2017 everywhere lol, there’s 3 parts. You can watch it on showtime and/or apple tv !!
Just remembered why bet pissed me off before yall make no damn sence part 2 is 3 min long no one paying 10 dollars when yall dont even drop or release good movies Netflix gets it I dont understand what's the point of releasing a movie only in the states ???? Fire an rehire who ever there

Rizzo was a real ☝🏽for not taking the solo deal when most mf’z would’ve took it. That just shows u how he was raised with loyalty and respect ✊🏽💯. 🤘🏽👌🏽 🚩.
I really wish they would add part 2 and 3 because everybody loves this movie like who don't.
Born in the 90s...but still find these stories so fascinating
I was a kid during the 80s when New Edition was still popular, but I was born in '78.
New Edition demonstrates what paying your dues, strong work ethic and supportive family look like.
"While the rest of us sit back here like Tito & Jermaine "
More like Randy 😂😂😂....
