In this clip, Damion Hall recounted how he was tasked with reuniting 'Guy.' He detailed going to Virginia Beach and linking with Teddy Riley and using the music they made together to entice Aaron to fly out and join them in the studio. Damion explained how the last 'Guy' album was created and why he is singing more lead on the third album as opposed to the first two.

Damion seems like a dude with a big heart and he’s mad loyal. I definitely would support a Guy/NE concert. He looks healthy and has taken good care of himself.
Rite he was the calm one they loved them but they didnt feel the same way
Agreed. Articulate, positive and down-to-earth type of bruh.. We need more of his kind to represent. Good luck with your coming endeavors, man.. All the best!
👊🏾😎👊🏾
That is a concert i would go to. I dont like going places by myself, and my wife passed away a couple years ago, but I'd go by myself if I have to...or be a 3rd wheel
Yes he really has taken care of himself, he looks great 👍🏾!
Black don't crack👍
Teddy took the musical DNA of Guy and put it into Backstreet. He always tried to find a voice like Aaron Hall and singers and could never get close. Teddy needs Aaron and vice versa.
Dave Hollister?? I don't think he's Aaron Hall but he was dope
With Blackstreet Teddy had better singers all the way around he wasn't trying to find a voice like Aaron Hall he found better voices & a better sound. Blackstreet was a more talented group Guy was great but they were one dimensional
@@mr.hill8223 Dave Hollister was & still is dope

@@michaelholmes7742 SAY WHEN!!💣💣
WE THE PEOPLE NEED A 4th GUY ALBUM
Yep...Yep...Period...One Love Fam...
@jdeals direct.....not if it's gonna be like the 3rd one.
@diabe diabira You got a point! lol Artists usually be starving when they get in the industry so bad that's when the genius comes out and the classics are made.
@G-O-D_Guns_Oil_Drugs lol, yea, it's called a "keytar"
@G-O-D_Guns_Oil_Drugs lol yes sir, a child's mind is a place of unbridled possibilities, and no place for bills
I truly appreciate the contribution Guy made to the music industry, and to my ears. I still bump the first album like it came out last year!
Please reunite and create a fourth album!
Sincerely,
A Huge Fan❤💯
Damion's Vocals are Very BEAUTIFUL!! 💞💞
Guy is one of the best groups ever...
SOMEDAY AND DANCIN'... ALL I LIKED
Yep...Yep...One Love Fam...
Facts!

"Ego" is the common culprit of why most great singing groups die, smdh 🤦🏾♂️.
Music industry screwing you will make u bitter too
Guy will always be a incredible group!
I have to say, this was a good interview. Much better than the interviews his brother has given throughout the years.
I was thinking the same thing. Damion is much more intellectual. I also like the way he carefully thinks about what he’s going to say before he says it. Classic, I wish him all the best. He is extremely talented. 👍🏽
Guy was one of my favs and I had no idea Damion has an album. I just listened and it's really Gooood.
Yeah I bought it way back when it was released when I was stationed in Germany. It was a good cd
The "Guy III" album is a great album!
The FUTURE is my JAWN too!
@@theadmiral460 It will always be!!! That Guy cd always bring back fond memories.
I've learned sometimes we care more about others more than we care for yourselves. I love this one right here💝
I 100% agree with Damion's description of Guy... Guy is THE SEAL OF AUTHENTICITY. Often imitated NEVER duplicated. The 3 of them together will ALWAYS be greater than what they did apart. No doubt God meant it to be that way.
I so agree Damion! Ya'll and New Edition should be on stage and doing the dam thang!!!! Sold Out Every Nite!!!!!!
Y’all gotta get Jo Jo or K Ci up there. Devante is a stretch but worth the try.
Devante views would do crazy numbers
@@JayWerx I doubt that very much. He isn't that well-known.
BANGERFIC They Need To Be Getting Us Also One Love Fam...
@@JayWerx I agree cause he always been so low key
@@tlig Man U must be young or stupid. Everyone knows who Devante is. Mr. Dalvin’s interview did numbers. People been wanting to hear from Devante for years.
All love 2 Damion Hall. He is an awesome dude. Would love 2 hear a new album from him.
Come on GUYS let's do a fourth recording, what else are ya'll doing.
Damion has a great spirit he isn't selfish it takes a real person to know no one is thinking about you.
I love what Damion Hall is doing with the kids! I'M doing the same thing with my two sons! I would love for Damion and my two sons to get together and work on some music!
This was a fantastic interview. Thank you for this.
He ask 4537 questions at once... GLLLLAAADDDD!!! TEACH HIM HOW TO INTERVIEW!!
I actually met Damian Hall . He was so cool and fun loving. I actually met Jeff Red at the VIBE Magazine music Convention. We've talked on the phone a few times.
This dude love cutting people off. We want to hear Damion's story, not the answers to your lame questions. If you let him talk he will eventually give you the answer you're looking for.
Guy is one of favorite groups of all time!! I can't believe I didn't know Damien has a solo album he released. I'm gonna have to find it!!
After the interview , Who went back to listen to Damion Album to see if it was good? I DID....and Yes he can sing good.. Actually sounds as good as Aaron ...they should get together and do a Brothers album
Damion is a real solid brotha
I just listened to NOT A DAY 🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️ i can't believe i never heard it before. Definitely the prelude to Blackstreet. I'm so mad i never knew about this song
I loved these men as a group and I love these men as individual artists,I was 15 yrs old when GUY came on the scene and I still love them in 2021!!!!Seems like yesterday whew chile!!!! How time fly's,would love to see these men upfront and center 1 more time!!!Great interview,now we know some of the issues that really took place behind the scenes.
I am so happy for Damion and his Journey. Love hearing he's doing his thing. Your boy TSwang.
I played Guy III out. That album was bangin.
This is a very powerful interview personally he can’t say as much as he would like to say based on each and everyone’s character in the group and personality. But he is definitely telling his truth and what he feels I think a lot of people should listen to this interview and appreciate it. We’ve heard nothing from Aaron Hall except for in the beginning. And if you know Teddy Riley Teddy could be in competition with anybody even his own shadow. When you’re dealing with personalities like that and then on top of that someone is in your ear telling you untruthful things you would be happy the guy ended the way they did because it’s a Phenomenal group. And on top of the Jean Griffin situation Jean was worse than Suge knight let’s just speak it and bring it to the light sad to say if you happen to be on any one of those tours in those days that’s why the group really broke up no one wanna be bullied in this industry by a group of professionals you look up to and put your whole life into the hands.
Producer Donte909
Love D transparency grew up loving this group still listen to them fantasy,spend the night bangers
SP: I was just asking about the contracts
DH: You don’t get it I gotta say this part so it will all make sense
SP: Oh my bad go head
DH: So I was super buff and had my hair looking good right......
Great interview, loved it. But this made me go back and listen to The Guy 3 album. After listening to it, this album clearly is not a Guy album. This sounds like Blackstreet music. The Future is my joint. There was heart and feelings in that album.. Guy 3 sounds rushed and just feels cold. Didn't do much for me. Kinda like how Jodeci's last effort was cold as ice. No feelings or heart put into it like the previous joints. But I miss Guy. It would be nice to pull the trigger on a 4th album and bring that real rnb back.
@kdbyers I loved Jodeci, but you are absolutely right about that 4th Jodeci album. I was sooooooo disappointed in it. Only 2 tracks even sounded remotely like Jodeci music ("Checkin" for You and "Incredible"). JoJo's voice sounded totally different and not in a good way. I hated that because he sang lead on my favourite Jodeci song, "What About Us". 😭😭
A lot of the songs were taken from an unreleased 911 album... even has some of their background vocals. Rushed and not collaborative. But I will say their are a few gems on there. Dancin, Keep me from my baby, love online (cheesy yes but vocal arrangement). The songs need to be from scratch for Guy for a fourth album, but not sure that could ever be a possibility these days.
Excellent interview, very intelligent brother.
Yes please do this! I’m going to this for sure and don’t add other acts... just Guy & NE!
Erica Dixon Come On Sweetie U Know We Should Be Opening Up For That Concert Don't Forget About Us Too Babe...
guy 3 is my favorite guy album hands down holy shit. so underrated. they had their highest single with that album.
Seems like Aaron was a bit of a narcissist, Teddy a musical perfectionist, Damien just not ego based enough for the industry. Thank you for the music you made, timeless!
I still Listen to they First 2 albums Guy made some classic dope songs.. I agree a Guy and New edition Concert would be off the chain & do Numbers the people will really enjoy it
'Long story Long' did you make money on the 3rd album or did you get played on the paperwork again...
I saw Guy in 2016… they killed it. They came on after Raheem Devaughn and before Musiq Soulchild. Guy went so hard that we were exhausted lol. It was a party. Aaron looked great. I’d go see them anytime.
Guy was them dudes.
That will be a great tour NE & Guy .
DJ Don Cruse Come On Fam Don't Forget About Us Too...
I want another Guy record
He was on a dating show in the early 2000’s called elimadate
Great interview!
Give him his damn Gold Plaque
I wonder why Damion never talks about the time they reunited in 95 for the New York Undercover soundtrack 🤔
Good point (and good song). Maybe they didn’t reunite on that track... all recording done separately? Now you got me thinking, there was also “The Best” on the Wild Wild West soundtrack prior to this album as well (which was an incredible track too). Album version of “The Best” was inferior in my opinion.
I was born in 96. Guy is the best. The song called groove me is dope
That third album was slept on. I'm guilty.
Great interview
Love Guy but Damion is hard to follow because he is all over the place.
Timmy teddy aaron damion that guy let's get a 4th guy album
This guy never answer the questions directly
Damion is 💯% better a person than his brother Aaron, I can't believe that they're really brothers.
One thing about Vlad TV they're giving legends their flowers 🌹🌺.
TRUE
Dancin should've been a waaaaaaaaay bigger single
I’m literally the damion hall of our group
😕 That sounds painful when it gets rough, but also joyous when the going's good.
Can wait to see that soon
Damien is the man. He still can dance. Well at least I hope he can.
Not A Day, is the best song on the album!
Timmy, T.R. Damion & Aaron GUY
this dude really wanted to say he got in shape haha
Pride always comes before the downfall!!!!
Guy and N.E. would surely beat every RnB tour. Faaaaaaaacts
You have a good heart ❤ my brotha 🙏
Shalom 🙏
Fun fact: I miss you was originally a apology to teddy riley from Aaron Hall 😂😂😂😂
Hilarious!!!!
Ninja, get 2tha point. "Long story short", my behind.
BX STAND UP!!!
You gotta make a movie
Dame is a Good Dude
They changed the game.
Where is the full dam interview
My favourite of the three was the second. The remixes were always dope. "My Fantasy" (Extended Version) and "I Wanna Get With You" (Club Version) are my favorite remixes of all time! Followed by Dru Hill " Sleeping In My Bed" (So So Def Remix).
Generally, I think egotism is what really hurt the group. But I would give the bigger blame to Teddy: he was working on a lot of other group/ artist projects while at the same time in Guy. Enough to make the other members insecure, jealous etc. As defacto leader, Ted
should have done a better job of managing egos. I saw a Soul Train performance were Don Cornelius kept dotting on Teddy during the interview segment. It was crass.
A stellar example of group leadership would be Will I. AM.
Damn Damion!!! You can GROOVE ME, Baby...TONIGHT!!!😋😁🤣
Aaron isn’t the same Aaron so not the same Guy. Teddy had enough of these two
🙄 I cringe when I hear him try push the Teddy’s my brother narrative. 🥴 Like dude, Teddy didn’t answer your calls for 3 months. Brother’s don’t ignore each other like that. 🤦🏽♀️
Guy was tha shit
He tap dance around every question and didn't answer any of it...
@G-O-D_Guns_Oil_Drugs it ain’t gonna happen. Teddy to large and don’t need the headache
@G-O-D_Guns_Oil_Drugs teddy worked with mj and he produced a Grammy winning album for him. Aaron ain’t did chit since guy III. no comparison
Solid fella 🖤💯
Just listen to your song with Chante Moore ...nice bro.
Vladtv...quite disappointed with the interviewer's question. Amazed that he did not challenge Daimien on how the song " tell me what you like" came to be in 1995 if they had not spoken since 1990.
🔥🔥GUY🔥🔥
Man when Guy & Tony Toni Tone’ broke up, as a lover of music, I just didn’t understand
Dam i wanna see that Guy and New Edition im first in line
Yeah SP keep him on track GJ
I wish interviewers wouldn't talk so much. Ask the "guest" the questions and than shut the fu** up and let them speak without constantly cutting them off.
Aaron on rescue you Guy 3 "YOU ALL TELL ME" he rip that sh.... WORD!!
This dude is funnier than he realizes
GUY & NJS 4ever
Damn i was 15 minutes in i thought this was Lloyd Banks
Does he ever ask where Aaron is today? I am trying to listen but ........
Not a day was 🔥
👑👑👑..ROYALTY
Yes that has always been mystery to me. The 3rd Album came and went smh
I’m Bishop haha do you Dhall🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😎✊🏾✌🏾
He ain't NOTHING like aaron hall I see, lol
Amen. 🙏
*P.S.* Nice pfp! I saw the name, and had to take a closer look.
Dame is SO long winded that I lose sight of what question he's answering 🤷♂️ Damn😳
Just...answer...the...damn...question💯 And THEN (if you find it necessary) take us back to whatever story you'd like to tell in order to fill in the gaps. The interviewer is a tad long winded as well.
Get Mike Bivins on the show
Still haven't seen him in anything lol
🤔 He's got a couple of credits listed on IMDb: Willi in _Halfway House,_ and Lance in _Blinding Lights._
Listen to Damien, then listen to Aaron.... Sun and the moon. 😂
3rd album slow songs powerful
