That energy he had was all natural. We didn't have Red Bull back then. You guys are very observant. Bobby has said that Rick James was his biggest musical influence. Good song choice. This song was massive and straight 🔥👍
@@hazelb7218 It didn't reach the states until the 90's. This song was recorded in '88. My comment was based off of their reference to Red Bull not any other substance. 😁👌
Yep, Rick James was more than a musical influence to him, unfortunately. The wild behaviour also rubbed off on him but thankfully he has calmed down significantly.
Definitely not all “natural” energy lol….Most of that was probably the crack cocaine he was smokin at this point in time in his career. That being said, he was and still is super talented. I give him mad credit as well for him getting and staying sober. I know from personal experience that sobriety is extremely difficult to achieve and maintain, so kudos to Bobby Brown 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Funfact: Bobby Brown had global commercial success in the late 80s. He had multiple top hits and his album was the #1 selling album in the world for the year in 1989. Additionally, Bobby Brown scored #1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100. People forget how commercially huge Bobby was but he negative image ultimately ruined his stardom and legacy and the white music executives blacklisted him. While Micheal Jackson, Prince, Whitney Houston, Madonna, Bruce Springsteen and Janet Jackson are the face of the 80s and culturally regarded as the foundation and pioneers of modern day Pop music, Bobby Brown has had some impact on Pop Culture as well. Bobby Brown in addition to his group (New Edition) has inspired a profusion of artists such as: Usher, Chris Brown, Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake, TLC, Boys To Men, New Kids On The Block, NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, Neyo and the list goes on. Regardless of what the media portrays of Bobby Brown, he is a legend.
You young men are really becoming experts at music and music genres and personalities. That was a very astute comparison you made between Bobby's stage presence and Rick James. Love you guys 💞
Definitely one of his best jams! I saw him and New Edition in concert last month and it's awesome to see him still doing his thing, after all he's been through!!
When he says, "Right Ted?" he's talking about super producer Teddy Riley who created the New Jack Swing. There's a whole list of artists who benefitted from that sound. :)
I'm still a fan of the whole New Edition crew. I'm glad they're getting the respect they deserve. Bobby wasnt the lead singer but he was the 1st to put his career in his own hands, the ORIGINAL bad boy. 👑. And I'm Glad you brothers are going strong 👑👑👍🏽
Bobby's "My prerogative" video was inspired by Janet Jackson's "Control" video both songs were very popular and they were a couple at the time. Bobby was arrested after a concert for his sexy dance moves.
True, though as an independent song (away from album), I believe this was more popular than Control. Cool songs. This tore up the NYC clubs back in the day. New Jack at its finest. Dont be Cruel gave him the one-two-three punch to own the late 80s ("Every Little Step" this and "Don't Be Cruel")...It was the trifecta of the time.
Michael Jackson said this was his FAVORITE song of all time. Loved it. Look up Smooth B & Bobby Brown's Micheal Jackson story. It's insane! Lol you're welcome🤣
Wow, I only heard and read about that concert. You were lucky to have seen it! Bobby was opening for NE and then when his album blew up, he was taken off the tour so he could headline his own tour!
I was 18 and still got my pictures from that show. That was a great concert. I had a seat on the side lower level right by the stage. Great pictures of all of them.
So no one but me is going to talk about how funny it was at the end when Tim said that Bobby got the air pregnant with all those pelvic thrusts? lol Oh my gosh I'm still laughing while I type this. Please react to the song True by Spandau Ballet...you'll love it....I promise the air is still innocent at the end of the song 😛
The original R&B badboy. He has been thru so much with his addictions, mental health issue and untimely passing of his ex wife Whitney Houston and his daughter Bobbi Brown. He is like Rick James here. The boy bands owe a lot to Bobby Brown! Prayers to him.
Bobby Brown was BAD!! He could sing, dance, he had swag, he had the ladies too! He was IT back in the day! Loved me some Bobby Brown.🥰❤ Please play more of Bobby. Songs like Don't Be cruel, On Our Own (from the Ghostbusters Sound Track) and Good Enough.
Love this song! And I actually really like Britney Spears’ cover of it too (don’t judge me lol). Dunno if you ever heard it (or if you wanna hear it lol)…
Me too! But I also love seeing them love this song. My parents said this music was nonsense that no one would remember a year from then. 25 years later and people still find this song amazing. Despite what they said, It's timeless.
You guys definitely should check out the TV show Bobby Brown had with Whitney Houston. It’s called Being Bobby Brown. There are definitely some episodes and clips on UA-cam.
Wow this is his first billboard number one. The album was number one and was knighted best album of the year at the Grammys that year. Great song. I still get the same feeling I got back in 1988

I’ve become such a Bobby Brown fan, when I was growing up my mom said he was not a good person because of his bad boy reputation (and Whitney’s drug addiction got blamed on him). But mama should have known bad boys don’t bother me lmao. Love him. So sorry for all he’s been through losing Whitney and Bobbi Kristina.
I would love to hear your reaction to "Hit Me Off " with all six members of NE. The official video is one of their greatest. Also, "If it isn't Love". Don't forget about 112. Great group. 👍🏼
Hey you guys I love y'all y'all always bring energy and humor to each and every reactions keep up the good work and if you can react to bobby brown don't be cruel or Rock wiitcha if you haven't reacted to it and if you have then react to Michael Jackson lady in my life
THIS WHOLE ALBUM!! It produced soooo many singles. I always felt like it was the rise and fall of my boi, because it stayed hot so long. He didn't really do anything else. It made him a Mega-star....To see them all still around and able to perform with each other is a blessing.
@3:14 - In his autobiography, Bobby said that he hung out with Rick James backstage when they were on tour together. Rick was a major influence. Taught him some good and bad things! @6:43 - "Wild! He most definitely got the air pregnant, humping at that point..." 😂He was spreading his seed around quite generously back then. See also 18+ years of child support, lawsuits/wage garnishment, baby mama drama, STDs, losing your soul, etc.
Just a minor correct for you, young bros, but Bobby Brown was not the lead singer of New Edition, Ralph Tresvant was. Eventually Bobby got kicked out of the group because of his unprofessionalism in the group dynamic, and also the trouble he was getting into in his personal life, which grossly affected the group's image. But his being kicked out was actually the best thing for his own career though, because of the nature of his contract, he was able to put out one of the highest selling solo albums of all time. The "Don't Be Cruel" album sold over 12 million copies worldwide in only one decade.
Ralph was the lead singer for New Edition but Bobby was definitely the best performer of the group and he sang lead for Mr.Telephone Man and Jealous Girl
Here's the original BAD Boy! Miss those days! This song still hit different after all these years. I bet many young folks go in trouble saying "My Perrogative" to the wrong person, like their parent or teacher!😊😊 I saw him perform this with the rest of New Edition 2 weeks ago while they were touring. Looking back, I'm glad I grew up in the 80s - so much great music and so much fun!! ❤❤
I feel like it the song can apply to toher things than sex you like dressing a certain style, religion, or certain lifestyles that are seen unconvential, or taste in music
His BEST HIT EVER but I love them all. The beginning of the video was taken from JJ Rhythm Nation. Anyways I ❤ B-boy Brown, he was considered The King of R&B. He was the ish back in his heyday. U can react to Don't Be Cruel, Humpin Around, Roni, Something In Common, On our Own, Rock Wit'Cha or any song he did with New Edition.👍
This was Bobby's "breakout" song. Similar to what Janet Jackson did on "Control," this was Bobby declaring his independence and stating that he would be calling his own shots and making his own decisions about his future. Hands down his biggest hit on a lot of levels.
Actually I wasn't, it was DON'T BE CRUEL (was his 1st), MY PREROGATIVE (was his 2nd ). Similar 2 what JJ did on Rhythm Nation, that's where he got the concept.
@@juliemcdaniel499 I called My Prerogative his "breakout" song, not his first hit. If you want to get technical, Don't Be Cruel wasn't even his first hit, as this was his SECOND solo album. Brown's first hit was "Girlfriend" off of King of Stage, his first solo album released in 1986. Dont Be Cruel was his second album released in 1988.
Bobby Brown is an excellent example of potential wasted. He could have been so much more than he was. When trapped in an addiction, even the best can fail to reach their potential. I hope he comes back, he was good.
His wife Whitney Houston use to call him the "Original King of R&B!" And at one point, Bobby really did dominate the male R&B charts with back to back bangers!!!!! PLUS he could sing, dance and rap! So in a way, Whitney was Right! From a Sista from Brooklyn, NY.
Check out these songs by Bobby Brown: “Roni”, “Girlfriend”, “ Rock Wit’cha“, Humpin Around”, “Something in Common featuring Whitney Houston”, “Get away”, and “Don’t Be Cruel”.
PRIME TIME BOBBY,HE WAS TOP R&B NEW ARTIST...KILLING EM.That was a good comparison Rick J & Bobby B cause they sho didn't give a dam n both had great music and careers
The only man on live television Arseno Hall show performing a song drop a bag of coke on the ground and pick it up and not miss a beat and pretend like it never happened haha
A tough song!!! Keith says a Good song!!! Bobby Brown pretty Cool!!! ✌ Joan and Keith Bates thanks Tim and Fred. Like your hair Tim. Keith likes Fred's hair. He likes long hair, his hair is down to his waist!! ✌
Bobby Brown was such an performer he was really big than as a solo artist and he can sing can you react to “Rock Wit Cha” Bobby and New Edition Touring now they where just here April 1 2022 in New Jersey my girlfriend went said that concert was so nice. I don’t know if you guys know this he was married to your girl Whitney they had a daughter together Rest In Peace Whitney Houston and Bobbi Kristina 😢🙏🏽
Love your reaction. I think the song Something in Common with Whitney Houston is a different one of his. Or maybe Stone Cold Gentleman which is Ralph Tresvant w/New Edition.
Huge dance song back in the day. We just had fun without all the seriousness like we have today. Believe it or not, the nuclear threat was the Soviet Union and we trained and prepared for that war of NATO against the USSR. Speed up to today. The Soviet Union is today's Russia, true story. We have seen the scenario of nuclear doomsday before. What is more scary today is that an actual war is being fought in the Ukraine. Back then, when this song was released in 1988 it was 43 years after Russia was engaged in an actual war during WWII.
Glad you listened to this otherwise you were missing out ! :) bobby brown, he shaped pop music in the 80s and he was at the time even huger, and more well known than Whitney :)
Bobby was that homie back in the jack swing era. Dude was the Chris Brown of the 80s and early 90s. He was known as the bad boy of r n b. From what I heard women were throwing themselves at this dude.
That was great! Looked like a rockin’ concert happening! Thanks for another banger Fred and Tim. 💥 Loved your comment at the beginning…. haven’t heard him since way back when we were little kids! 😂 Thanks for the laughs guys!

I don’t know if you guys know this he was married to your girl Whitney they had a daughter together Rest In Peace Whitney Houston and Bobbi Kristina 😢🙏🏽
Love your reaction. I think the song Something in Common with Whitney Houston is a different one of his. Or maybe Stone Cold Gentleman which is Ralph Tresvant w/New Edition.
Pretty much describes Bobby in this song. He was WILD. LOL
Huge dance song back in the day. We just had fun without all the seriousness like we have today. Believe it or not, the nuclear threat was the Soviet Union and we trained and prepared for that war of NATO against the USSR. Speed up to today. The Soviet Union is today's Russia, true story. We have seen the scenario of nuclear doomsday before. What is more scary today is that an actual war is being fought in the Ukraine. Back then, when this song was released in 1988 it was 43 years after Russia was engaged in an actual war during WWII.
Bobby and "Uncle Rick" were good friends. Bob would frequent his home here in Buf. Bobby still has a love for Buffalo. Love my "big brother"
Great comparison guys! Bobby Brown certainly was a Bad Boy like Rick James
Glad you listened to this otherwise you were missing out ! :) bobby brown, he shaped pop music in the 80s and he was at the time even huger, and more well known than Whitney :)
Rock Witcha cannot NOT be heard. Bobby's best, for sure.
Bobby was that homie back in the jack swing era. Dude was the Chris Brown of the 80s and early 90s. He was known as the bad boy of r n b. From what I heard women were throwing themselves at this dude.
That was great! Looked like a rockin’ concert happening! Thanks for another banger Fred and Tim. 💥 Loved your comment at the beginning…. haven’t heard him since way back when we were little kids! 😂 Thanks for the laughs guys!
Bobby brown was not the lead singer of New edition. Ralph Tresvant is, but both of my boo things are equally talented Lol
You gotta do Don't Be Cruel next, his best song in my opinion. Performers had fun on stage back then, I miss that.
Ralph Tresvant has Always been the lead singer of NE not Bobby
"YO TEDDY, KICK IT LIKE THIS".. Yooo yall just took me back to them jr high dances. What a time man...
