It takes alot of guts to go on stage and sing like somebody got your nuts in a vice grip but he was successful and he dont give a damn as long as the women kept coming to see him and got paid so props for cashing in on it !
Total Agreement. ...Making great records and being a great or even good for that matter are two different things. Yet at least it is a live performance and he did sound like the record. ..a little bit, lol!
On another note (no pun intended)🤣, we may be laughing but that boy could have had A-N-Y woman in that room at that moment. They were literally CRAWLING to him! He had that whole room in the palm of his hand! Say what you what about this performance, but he was THE MAN that night I’m sure! 😉💪🏾🔥
You’re so absolutely right! Al B’s live performances were so irkinly(not a word) fantastic that you can’t even hate on the brother. You just gotta enjoy the ride and watch him collect the honies. 😂😂
I've been depressed and I've been on an Al B Sure! Live performance binge, and they have brought a smile to my face..........because they're hilariously bad. 😂😂 He sounds like someone's drunk uncle at karaoke.
So his talent wasn't the reason? Dark skin people have issues. Ya so worried about being the ring leader in the white man's circus meanwhile every spectrum of skin color in every other race is building generational wealth. Massa told you that Dark skin was ugly and ya biggest mistake is ya believed it lol
Who told this man he could sing his mama 😂 I thought he was so hot back in the day. I didn't realize he couldn't sing. I was a teenager that's probably why it didn't matter. 😳
I fucking cannot.....when he dropped to his knees and got in that girl face I spit my drink out laughing 😂😂😂. At 2:52. And that same old lady in the front with the sky blue dress has been on that show since Sam Cooke performance in the 50's. 😂
He use to be fine wow but his son is even finer.... It's fineness overload!!! Can't take them to much fine for one person pass some fineness to some of the poor ugly people in the world! Damn
I'd forgotten how alike late 80's RnB/Pop tunes sounded lol. Same beat on everything. Fun though, good times. Wishing continued recovery and good health for Al.
@Latasha Harvin Same HERE, and I 'STILL' DO to this DAY!! 😁😁👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾 Thank GOODNESS one my 'CRUSHES' is old ENOUGH for me to 'CRUSH' on WITHOUT people giving me the Ugly, Condescending, DISAPPROVING, 'Cougar' Look at me for 'CRUSHIN' on THE @AL B. Sure! Unlike, how people 'LOOK' at me for 'CRUSHIN' on @Chris Brown or @Drake !! 😒😒👎🏾👎🏾 But, can you BLAME me, though!! 🤔🤔🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️ ALL (3) of those Bruthas, @Al B. Sure! @Chris Brown and @Drake are FIIIINE, THOUGH!! Like, for RE-AL THOUGH!! 😁😁😍😍 🥴🥴🤤🤤 😛😛😘😘 💋💋💕💕 👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾💯💯
True, but Al B Sure & Christopher Williams are actually what black folk call 'play cousins'/not related at all. One or both of them admitted it years ago. However, Christopher Williams is the nephew of legendary Jazz singer Ella Fitzgerald.
Al B Sure! had charisma, and that can go a long way. It also helped that he was a talented songwriter/ producer and extremely good-looking. i think all of the women in that audience knew very well that he sounded. .. kinda awful that night, but it really matter. If my mother had been in that audience, she would have acted just as crazy. i remember the crush that she had on Al B Sure! back then, and she was a married young woman with two children! 😆🤣
I am in my 40s and always did pretty well with the ladies in my day but always had to work for it. This guy has women throwing themselves @ him by the bus load. Props to Al B. 😂
Greetings from Dallas tx! I just got the privilege of visiting the Apollo theater and taking the tour last sat and had to come watch some of the old videos su I can be like wow I sat in those seats stood on that stage and rubbed that stump! Surreal
I'm sorry but I was totally in love with AL B Sure back then, he had it going on. If I was at the Apollo I would of been screaming louder then audience. lol
Shontae B YU-UP, and MOST likely would have 'LOST' my voice that night, TOO!! BWA-HA-HAAA!! I'll go 'OUT' annnd 'SLEEP' with AL B. Sure ANYTIME he would ASK me!! #REALTalk!! 😘😘💋💋 💕💕 👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Make no mistakes about it AL b sure, Bobby brown and New edition all have some great albums in 88 AL b sure definitely deserve to be on that tour even tho he was an overnight success and I liked the way he tried and really used his voice, dance move and energy. I can't say that about many artists nowadays they mostly have women dancing and shaking booties for them.
All I see is confidence through the roof 😂
It takes alot of guts to go on stage and sing like somebody got your nuts in a vice grip but he was successful and he dont give a damn as long as the women kept coming to see him and got paid so props for cashing in on it !
He was a successful recording artist not a successful live performer by the sounds of it
This was my jam😂
I love this song but damn this performance had me crying laughing 😭😭😭😭
Pahahaha 🤣🤣🤣
He can't sing😂🤣😂🤣
Me toooi😂
I was there and all the women were screaming so loud that we didn't know that our crush for life could not sing!!! On the strength.

Hilarious
That was so weird!
This was good and terrible at the same time.My man's knees ain't been right since this performance 😂😂😂
BHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LMAO !!!!!! ROTFL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn right haaaaa
You’re so absolutely right! Al B’s live performances were so irkinly(not a word) fantastic that you can’t even hate on the brother. You just gotta enjoy the ride and watch him collect the honies. 😂😂
I cannot take this performance seriously.
Don't attempt to. It'll lose its charm.
His son looks EXACTLY like him 30yrs later
This is why his music career was short lived!
Look yall No Cellphones at a Concert. Just people enjoying the show
Yasssssss frfr
I was there and it was so loud, we didn't know that our crush could not sing!!.
LMAO! Why does this make me laugh so hard?
georgyfontaine28, because it's extra af! 🤣
Bruh... I remembered as a buck watching this with my sisters dying laughing... I'm like this nih 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️😂😂

April Krabe No , you are extra immature.
all of a sudden, you want me BAAHAACK *knees shatter*
I've been depressed and I've been on an Al B Sure! Live performance binge, and they have brought a smile to my face..........because they're hilariously bad. 😂😂
He sounds like someone's drunk uncle at karaoke.
Please link to some ones that you like.
Finally somebody got some sense. He sounds awful. He got by on his looks
If I ever need a laugh I come here. To watch Al b sure perform. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 This is pure gold

For him to have such a deep voice he sings a good falsetto.
No he doesn't. lol
You joking right. What Are you hearing Al b sure can't sing
Yeah, if Minnie Mouse was the goal...
He sounds so good to me! ❤
I like his falsetto it's sexy and he's very entertaining.

He can't sing 🤣
Prayers to Al B sure as he recovers. ,💐💔🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is for blk women why are you and your dried box bleach blonde here?
Proof that being good looking and light skin will get you anywhere.😭😭

Good looking you say ?
@@eequalsmc2sqrd59 Well according to his fans. I say no on account of his Oscar The Grouch unibrow.
😂
So his talent wasn't the reason? Dark skin people have issues. Ya so worried about being the ring leader in the white man's circus meanwhile every spectrum of skin color in every other race is building generational wealth.

Al b is one hell of a producer and songwriter that's all!!!🤦🏾♀️🥴💀🤣😆💯🙌🏿😎
Who told this man he could sing his mama 😂 I thought he was so hot back in the day. I didn't realize he couldn't sing. I was a teenager that's probably why it didn't matter. 😳
1:35 I WAnna KnoW what's on YOUR MINDDDD..... HUH HIND! 🤣🤣

I remember this like it was yesterday. I was mad hyped lol.. The girl group The Gyrlz as his background singers
My man al b was killing it in his own way 🤣🤣🤣
What the heck?? It's like watching someone performing at a high school talent show. I can't believe this guy actually got to be a real performer.
Nah it's waaaay worse.
So this is how I sound in the shower.

Al b.Sure! Having a great time on stage regardless of the vocal issues. He was a force to be reckon with on the producing tip! Great song writer also.
Yes!
Y'all need to stop trying to convince people that he can sing.we have ears🙄
@@kennettabradford6566I bet we all can sing his own song better then him
What the fuck was he thinking at 3:20 with that facial expression and note? Al b Sure was queening-out for sure.
💀💀😂😭
Will never forget watching this on the original air-date cracking up!!! That album though is still a no skip classic that I listen to often
The whole dam band gay

👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾💯💯
I guess God gave Al song writing and his Cousin Christopher Williams the singing voice!
+guarogee OMG...that's exactly what I've been thinking for the longest time. Chris was the better singer but Al had better, catchier songs.
Oh wow that’s his cousin? I loved him as well
True, but Al B Sure & Christopher Williams are actually what black folk call 'play cousins'/not related at all. One or both of them admitted it years ago. However, Christopher Williams is the nephew of legendary Jazz singer Ella Fitzgerald.
@@PositiveBrothaHakeem Thank you for the info. but I knew that Bro, I'm 53 and from NY, I used to see them all the time at shows back then.
Add diddy and you got a big happy family
That dance at the end was so Lit 😂😯

@@nickv1338 Actually they are not related. They are good friends and Al confirmed that they are not cousins.
@debra James Thanks!
Two very totally different voices! But I love them both, too!
Me too but now am married l love my husband 😁
Al B Sure is Very entertaining and Handsome! He didnt have a ear piece to hear himself!!! He can sing and perform!!! LOOOOOVE HIM!!!❤️
Stop lying.. he's handsome that's it🤣😂🤣🤣
This is awesome and horrible at the same time and 2:50 kills me every time 😭😭😭😭
I can't stop watching that part! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Al B Sure! had charisma, and that can go a long way.
It also helped that he was a talented songwriter/ producer and extremely good-looking.
i think all of the women in that audience knew very well that he sounded. .. kinda awful that night, but it really matter.
If my mother had been in that audience, she would have acted just as crazy.
i remember the crush that she had on Al B Sure! back then, and she was a married young woman with two children!
😆🤣
That outfit 😂😭
The Most Known Unknown ....please!!! They wear that tight mess today!!
Anit nothing wrong what he have on just a pair of jeans and the shirt.
Dope! Loudest Apollo performance.
I see why he quit the Heartbreak tour this wasn't going to cut it. This was entertaining tho 😆
04:25 that George Jefferson gets me every time
😂😂😂😂 I like Al B Sure but this is horrible! Still cracking up! LMAO!!!
If social media was out back then his career would be over in a second lol
Honestly this was amazing!!
I started laughing toooo harder 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂, when he said I wanna know what’s on ya miiiiind!!!!!!
I remember lookin at this back n 88 I was busting up laughing he looked crazy as hell lol
2:50 almost took me out of this world 😂☠️
Someone said this is like a high school talent show and I can't unsee it! He would be the most popular dude in school after this for sure haha

1:34 .... I Laughed so hard i got light headed.
Lol!😂
I swear this just happened to me😭😭😭
He got that shit rockin !
LOL at 1:59 "Is it something wrong with you or is it something wrong with me?" Yes there is...you can't sing potnuh!
This is pure comedy 😂😂😂😂
When he isn’t singing in a high pitch he sounds good
His voice is the cutest! Not the singing voice, now that sucks. but he's so cute and his regular talking voice is so cute!
They look so lit when it first came on😂😂😂😂😂😁😁😁😅😅 get it al b sure
I like the way he was vibin' with the crowd...it was cute, esp @2:57
THE KING!!!
Classic playa music my boy Al B Sure was a playa back in day.
I am in my 40s and always did pretty well with the ladies in my day but always had to work for it. This guy has women throwing themselves @ him by the bus load. Props to Al B. 😂
The George Jefferson funky chicken move at the end tho way to hilarious

Al B's voice is a rare treasure, Some things aren't obvious
Vocals weren't all there but give him credit. He put on a show for the ladies. I wish I was that smooth.
Are you serious,look gayish to me!
@@oboy7555 haha facts
Is there any other original era lives of this song ?
@@oboy7555 exactly, as a woman, this is a turnoff
@@ashkeygii9449 You must be a lesbian an i'm sure he did not want you
No wonder he had trouble being placed between Bobby and New Edition on the Heartbreak Tour 😂😂😂😂
One of my friends went to the concert and she said that when Al came on she went to buy herself a drink. Later on Al was placed as the opening act.
Why is it so bad but kinda good??😂
Yeah his looks saved his ass.... But it was still lit
That's what I said too.
🎯
Love this performance
Yeah it was hilarious and awful 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm sorry but I was totally in love with AL B Sure back then, he had it going on. If I was at the Apollo I would of been screaming louder then audience. lol

When he dropped to his knees it was tantalizing 😍😍😍😍😍😍
BEFORE AUTO TUNE!!HE STILL KILLED IT 🤣🤣🤣🤣22🔥🔥🔥
Sound like shit. Stop cappin
He killed it alright 😂😂😂😂
He needs auto tune. He could never sing and this live performance proves it..🤣🤣🤣🤣
Make no mistakes about it AL b sure, Bobby brown and New edition all have some great albums in 88 AL b sure definitely deserve to be on that tour even tho he was an overnight success and I liked the way he tried and really used his voice, dance move and energy.

case of when you get signed cuz of your looks
