Remember This Hella Tense Video Soul Interview? | The New Edition Story

[@antwuanlamont4694]

Her interviewing created the tension. She was addressing them as separate artist rather than just focusing on them as a group.

[@shirellharrison102]

You're absolutely right!!

[@BigArtBigArt]

Y'all have too think she was just asking questions that every body wanted too know at that time.Each separate interviews they act like they dint want too say....hell we were the fans...we wanted too know!So too ha e them all in one interview that was rare at that time(fans wanted too know)I remember.They was all over the place at that time leaving fan's confused....she was just asking what ALL the fans wanted too know....Are y'all together?Is Bobby back?New album coming soon?BBD was doing they thing and Bobby and Johnny!Just think about in that moment not today time because we know the outcome now.

[@BigArtBigArt]

The all were separate artist at that time except for BBD....they just getting together for a reunion tour and talking about getting together.....fans wanted know!It was curious too see what was going to happen with Bobby....he had going on at that time!We dint know what was going behind the seen then...now we do because of the movie.

[@IceManLikeGervin]

Nope. First was the Bobby interview. Second was the Ralph interview. Then they all got interviewed together on the same show. They were all doing solo projects at the time (BBD, Bobby, JG had already put out their solo projects and Ralph was getting ready to drop his debut solo album).

[@matthewharjo7512]

Most people don't know that New Edition paved the way for the #1, and #2 biggest Hip-Hop/R&B groups of the 90s. Boyz II Men and TLC. Michael Bivins discovered Boyz II Men, he also met Lisa Lopes in a club in Atlanta. It was there that he christened her "Left Eye," because her left eye was more slanted then her right. Also, BBD was the inspiration for TLC. The ladies didn't want to sound like every other female R&B group in tight clothes, singing break up ballads. So they took their inspiration for BBD, the New Jack Swing sound, their image, TLC just made it brighter, baggier, and put condoms on it. Also to this day, TLC will always say BBD was, is their biggest inspiration. NEW EDITION is the foundation for what became the most successful R&B group of all Time, and The Best Selling Female Group of All Time. NE did that!!!!

Mike's mom told him that Ralph didn't answer the door but she knew he was inside because she heard him playing music. When the music stopped she knocked again and Ralph still didn't answer. Mike said he decided going forward that he and Ralph would be business partners only because he didn't appreciate Ralph not opening the door for his mom. It was on a show called Life After on TV One.

[@nwilliams5883]

The all had love, and all sacrifice. We saw the edited version. Reality Rickey sacrificed because he was primarily the lead singer until they recorded the album. Mike never really wanted to be about the group as a profession, it was more than just the one talk from his mom to get him to sign. It was not Ralph's fault or the others fault that he did all the singing. They were all frustrated, but took it out on who they could get away with taking it out on, each other.

New Edition is the only legitimate Brotherhood in music you feel the vibe that they're more than just bandmates you feel that they like family they see each other like family and it's genuine. If you go back and watch old Bobby Brown solo interviews old Ralph Tresvant solo interviews even some old Johnny Gill solo interviews they don't seem happy they don't seem content but then when you see interviews where you got these brothers together it's like they come alive it's like they see the world like they can accomplish anything they feed off of one another that's why you got to love New Edition collectively you have to love these brothers

New Edition will always be loved by their fans. I was glad that they reconciled. I am also glad that they realized that in the end, they are truly brothers. Family go through things, snd sometimes it can go far. However, they went through their moments of immaturities, and came right back to square one...which was understanding that no matter what they're still family. I love this group. They will always be an all time favorite to those who love them.

[@lilkeenan]

6:55 Sherry: Do you think people were feeling that way Mike: you have to kind of ask us that question (Irritated Hand Gesture) Ralph started to answer the question. Bobby was sitting on his throne laughing

[@IndigoSJJ]

Ralph seemingly gave a very unselfish answer as to how and why the guys were doing their own separate thing. BBD was really feeling themselves right here. It was quite surprising how Johnny and Bobby didn't interject. I think Ralph was trying to bring a neutral focus to the interview but them being the age they were and being full on their success BBD were being haughty. I'm glad it all worked out despite attitudes and personalities. #NE4Life

[@thetruthandnothingbutthetr6484]

IndigoSJJ at that point BBD were the hot shit though and "Dont be cruel" had run its course...they deserved to feel themselves because everyone thougt they werent going to do shit and they became ARGUABLY the most influential group of the 90s...plus they have a pop standard in "Poison"..wont nobody be singing "Sensitivity" , "Dont be cruel" or "rub you the right way" in decades to come like they will "Poison"

[@mamashe4925]

+Fake News You conveniently forgot Every Little Step and My Prerogative

[@Sunshine-dy2nx]

Grandiose Small Things you are absolutely wrong. "Sensitivity" will stay strong for the simple fact this song has its own place now and in the foreseeable future. Every song made by any artist carries its own audience. I'm surprised you don't know that but maybe I shouldn't be suprised according to what you said. I look at it this way if Ralph had taken Maurice offer you wouldn't have a poison to listen too so, the person you need to credit for its success is Ralph. I know it is going to hurt your little heart but, you will be ok. BB success is due to Ralph turning down Maurice solo deal also. Maurice Starr did not want the other 4 he wanted Ralph. What am I saying, "Ralph is the wheel for all their successes?

[@Sunshine-dy2nx]

Grandiose Small Things is this the only response you could come up with, it is a shame when you can't have dialogue and opinions without name calling. Go find a dictionary and expand your vocabulary. Shame! shame! shame!

Have you seen Bobby Brown interviews. Don’t go off an ignorant mainstream image of him being crazy. That is because he is a one of a kind expressive artist. He is reserved and intelligent speaking as a person and in interviews.

[@sinjin4563]

Amaris Mason So that means you can paint a portrayal of him being a crazy, low life erratic dude? Educate yourself by actually watching Bobby and don’t go off the racist mainstream portrayal that they wanted to give him. Literally every interview he is reserved and intelligent speaking.

[@amarismason01]

JasonP4563 I never said that ur just putting word in my mouth 😂🤦🏾‍♀️

[@C1rcu1tBr34k3r]

Can clearly see that Ralph is pretty much heated over the fact that his success paled in comparisons to the other members individual splintered acts. The problem with Ralph's career is the simple fact that he was holding on to an era of R&B that had quickly transformed by the release of his solo project. The other members had come out with their albums earlier in the year and were able to capitalize on their niche groups during a period of R&B and hip hop transformation, leaving Ralph with scraps. Ralph's image was tied to New Edition with it's gentlemanly suave R&B crooner type which was already declining when his first album dropped in the latter half of 1990. By the time Ralph's second album would surface in 94, there would be a diametrical shift in the image that appealed to fans. The population had already shifted from the smooth R&B crooner type to the bad boy, hip hop edgy image. That's why groups like After 7, Boyz II Men and artists like Tevin Campbell were on the decline during this transitional period (although Tevin's decline was mostly in-part due to Usher surfacing in the industry). Nevertheless, timing was against Ralph at every step of his solo career. Had he went Solo prior to Bobby or even dropped his album before other members have, his career may have looked completely different considering he was the one viewed as the second Michael Jackson.
