Bobby Brown And BBD Talk New Movie and 30 Years of History In The Entertainment Business

[@joechambers09]

When living in ATL I worked at sprint store as a technician and Ronnie came into the store one night and needed his phone fixed because it wasnt working right and I damn near hit the roof because I grew up on these guys and am a big fan of the group..this guy came in and was acting like he wasnt a star or part of a mega group..was so humble and asked could I fix his phone..man forget fix his phone I just gave him another one and he sat their and talked to me for about 30min..best day of my life so to my man Ron thanks for the memory bro and god bless you all

[@amanmuhammad14]

Joseph Chambers you took a picture with him?

[@joechambers09]

Actually it was in the early 2000 and smart phones were not around yet...he did give me his real estate card though which I still have..Good dude

[@reginaldwilliams6241]

@@joechambers09 did u give u extra money????

[@joechambers09]

@@reginaldwilliams6241 Actually I checked the phone and that model was known to fail so it was not against the rules in fact the technicians job at that time was to make sure that the customer was satisfied...did him being a member of my favorite group play a part in my decision...probably....lol but no it was not against the rules...the last question about extra money..no we are not allowed to take money as long as they had the insurance plan on the phone

[@notynoty7526]

True. He looks much better than he did a few years ago. some people just can't give props.

[@pazil360]

@@notynoty7526 my opinion differs, and props for what ?

[@notynoty7526]

Props for getting his life together after putting himself through so much over the years. He has cleaned up a lot in recent years, mentally and physically. Like Sway said, we need to stop focusing on the wrong and celebrate when folks do well. But yes, agree to disagree.

[@wheatbread2002]

He looks great as far as he has more inner peace, and serenity. Wisdom is graced upon his spirit.

[@hyda-jameshill1035]

Mike just killed it with that knowledge

[@EDRISSALEXIS21]

I've never seen an interview with these dudes as introspective and educational as there were in this one. Sway lobbed up the questions and they each ran clinics.

[@NellaB_]

True. I think their earlier interview from The Breakfast Club earlier helped their chemistry as well.

[@davon4470]

[@algenebailey8037]

HELL YA, Mike! Yo, for someone that gave up school for his craft - really embraced it. his explanation of team and know your role and just ask questions is exactly what life is about. everything he did was at 100%. If that meant quiting school then whatever (positive) replacement you have in store for that better be at 100%. You a Model Biv!

[@nikmac6285]

🙌🏽Sway! Man you always give THE best interviews. Somehow you not only allow the speakers to speak their truths but you listen and follow up with questions that we need to hear! Thank you once again for the honesty of it all! They are legends!

Mike Biv was preaching.

[@Imohlaapohko]

I love them NE for life! Mike is such a calm and wise soul. When I met him briefly at an amusement park in Agawam Massachusetts called Riverside (now six flags). He was just as calm then as he is now. He respects and acknowledges all his fans. He is a cool a%# dude. Thank you for this interview.

[@williemo44]

Don’t be cruel, i still play that album from track 1, all the way through. Excellent album.

[@russie.russell]

I've said it before on their other interview, RALPH is going to REGRET this bad move...

[@calhounsista6491]

What bad move?' Ralph and the rest of these fogeys are 50 years old. Ralph is probably sick and tired of these drama queens. Ralph is living his life, doing his radio show and an occasional small concept. Bobby Brown, Ronnie Devoe(who now has a peach on RHOA, and they say he is the biggest shit starter on the show), Rickey Bell and Mike Bivens are out here doing shows like their lives depended on it. They are old enough and should have made enough money to where they should be doing what Ralph is doing, taking it easy. They are no spring chickens. I love NE, but for the love of God, RBRM, get some other dimension to yourselves. Yall even dress like yall are still youngsters, yall are not. Get a damn clue, grow the "F" up

[@kingkbtv]

@@calhounsista6491 First off they are entertainers secondly there showing ralph that they are not relying on his ass anymore same thing for johnny they are performers thats what made them yes RBRM is old aint we all gonna be up there age aint nothing but a fucking number like Mike said niggas gotta eat there not gonna wait for ralph and johnny to get out that funk there in they gonna give the fans a show come on now and talking about they need to grow up have you not seen what they all went through its life its always gonna be a lot of curve ball happening to them that doesn't mean you should stop doing what you love so like i said while RBRM is on stage giving the fans a show Ralph is on the radio thats his choice but i know deep inside he regret it and Johnny he a cool guy i dont know whats going but its what ever so yeah and Ralph if he was smart he should of took that god damn sony deal he that sensitivity song didnt sell more than bobby and bbd and johnny he was at the bottom but that his choice all because he wanted to what bobby did behind Ronnie Ricky and Mike back that was a dumbass move he did no loyalty at all in that situation yeah he should continue his radio show while RBRM is on stage giving the fans a show.

Rickey is the only one who speaks without profanity, such a intelligent guy my favorite NE. and a true believer in God. Bobby has moved into lol 😆 second Favorite.
