- Опубліковано 24 кві 2018
- American R&B group Next first broke through when their debut single “Butta Love” peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1997. The follow-up, “Too Close,” took the trio to even greater heights, reaching No. 1 on both the Hot 100 and the R&B charts. Produced by Kay Gee, the Rated Next track would go on to top the 1998 year-end Hot 100 chart, and earn a double-Platinum certification. As Next member Raphael “Tweet” Brown points out, it’s one of the biggest hits of all time as well, sitting at No. 16 on the decade-end Hot 100 chart for 1990-1999 and No. 28 of all-time.

Yasssss for real singers! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 listen to those voices
This used to be one of my favorite songs when I was younger, as I got older and could hear/understand the lyrics it hit me like a brick wall. lmao
Jagged Edge “Let’s Get Married” should be next
Lamine Diallo But we already kno what that song means tho? 🙄🙄
Ayden_Chadway right, because after 20 years no one knew the meaning of “Too Close”
Lamine Diallo Oh....🙄
Yo only big dude in the red sweatshirt sound the same😂 because that harmony in the beginning 💀😬😬
Please do Ashanti Foolish!! People forget how big she was back in the early 2000’s plus that song is a certified BOP 😩
Aaron J movies was my favorite. Also happy 🙌🏼🙌🏼😭
Okay we now need “Wifey” and “Butta Love” ASAP
Kelyshia Smith “Butta Love” my favorite by them!

Khalia Harvey shooketh!!!!

When artists could really sing🎶 👑
BRING LLOYD ON HERE SO WE CAN KNOW IF HE SAYS "FINE TOO" OR "5'2"
Yo for real we need answers!
Lloyd answered that question many times already on Twitter & in interviews it’s “Fine Too”
Makeena Curtis lol and it's the only answer that makes sense with the rest of the lyric...why would he point out her height as a reason to choose or not choose her?!
😂
Why you always lyinnnn
They aged well! And their voices still sound great
damn, hearing them singing it is crazy
Back when dudes could actually sing...
Yooo, that’s my song!!! I didn’t understand it when I was a kid 😂😂
Young Infamous Sameee... omg 😂
Classic group
their voices so good tho
Glad they worked out their differences, hopefully they're working on new music. Loved them back in the day
thestylecake They got a new song out called “Want It” & they’re on the 90’s Block Party Tour
I’d heard this song when I was younger, but now that I’m older I can understand and appreciate the lyrics. These guys have absolute amazing voices.
They should’ve did it on “wifey “ too 😩💛that’s my mfn song 😭😭I’m gonna play this when i get married
Curly Goof ooooh that’s a good one
“Either braids or weave you’re still my queennnnn” that’s my shit ❤️

NEXT AND THIS SONG ARE SUPER CLASSIC!!! REAL R&B MUSIC
This was such a great segment. We need more of Next.
- Next, please go on tour! We miss you (come to 🇨🇦 Canada pleaseeeeee)❤
I figured out the meaning a while ago and still questioning why no one stopped me from singing this when i was little 😂😂😂
Also i figured out the very beginning part they always skip on the radio💀
S/n they still sound good!
Why did my mama let me listen and sing this song when I was little?
They still sound good! Yes! I love it when an older group can still sing their hits
I’m definitely guilty of saying “Baby no more crying” 😂
Thanks for this video. I love Next!
More of these please
I'll never be able to sing this song again without thinking about this video
Ahhh one of my all-time favorite songs to groove to 💕💕💕
Shit still slap til this day....and their track wifey. So sad that rnb is dead now.... smh
Nice throwback
RL has a great voice. Like I can fall asleep to his voice
Was good ma
MORE THROWBACKS 👏🏾👏🏾
Still one of my favs! Those lyrics back then went right over my head! 😅
Poison by Bell Biv Devoe
This is dope
We need more throwbacks like this please Genius!!
Even though I know the lyrics I still came to see 😂🙌🏼
I love this ❤️❤️❤️. This was my jam, still is
So cool that they did this! Thanks for having them on Genius!
They look and sound so good!!!
Old school rnb gives you that feeling that vibe that is no where to be find nowadays
This isn’t old enough to be old school. Old school would be 60s and 70s r&b.
one of my faves 💞💞
The funny thing is I just always love the song but this the first time I ever knew what the song was about all these years lol.. I’m more of a sound person meaning I focus more on the music and the combination of the voice when I’m listening to music ..And this one of my favorites it’s still relevant til this day I think also that whole album was 🔥
That harmony❤️❤️❤️❤️
This was so good
Love that music !
Yasassss living for the nostalgic songs! More more
their voices are 😍😍
I was a child singing this oblivious to the meaning of what I was singing 😂
I was just listening to this on Spotify , saw this, and I was just like YES
Dope!! One of my ALL TIME FAVS!! LOVE NEXT 😍 and loved the girl's part in the song.... 🔥💯💯
Wooooooooow in 2020 what we NEED is more raw talent like these guys. I'm blown away by how effortlessly they be hitting them notes
I've seen RL in person not too long ago... Soo fine 😍😍😍😍
My favorite song ever!!!!
They look great!

This is my jam!! 😀😀😁😁I'm 23 going on 24 this summer. I remember listening to this song when I was little. Back then I didn't really know what it meant but now I'm old enough and know now what it means....but then again I do have older siblings that listened to a lot of music like that. So I know a lot of old school music like that. Lol but yeah. Love y'all. ☺😊💯💯💯
You had to been like 3 tho when this song came out ?
@@yerusalemabreha4578 radio or maybe the parents had some songs at home
Song is very relatable.
i was young singin this & had no idea lol
This song came out back in 1997, I was about 10 years old when this song dropped, how didn't understand what they was singing about? That's insane for me to think
Exactly ppl r stupid.
Yasss!!!
More throwbacks please
