[@laticiadavis8627]

Everone was so much happier cuz everyone danced and enjoyed themselves didnt take themselves so serious. Loved this jam.

[@chester187]

This whole album is classic!! Bobby Brown was bringing it in 88'! He was at the top of his game!

[@NyMyers64]

This style was sometimes referred to as New Jack Swing at the time. Janet Jacksons "Nasty" is another example of the style.

[@gymeni]

Ed Myers Yep! Back when we wore Cross Colors, lol!

[@WashashoreProd]

New Jack was interesting -- it proved that hip hop and rap are closely related, but they're two distinctly different things.

[@MikeCheck1814]

India definitely needs to react to some JANET!!

[@KingFahtah]

How about some Toni Toni Tone!

[@michellerutherford9551]

I loved my new jack swing !!

[@sersastark]

Bobby was a trained natural talent. He has range and could dance and sing live without being winded. He was a talent. That high note...he did that with his WHOLE CHEST

[@gacaptain]

This style of music was known as "New Jack Swing" It was very popular at the end of the 80's beginning of the 90s. It was a blend of R&B with hip hop beats and was very danceable. There were quiet a few popular artist besides Bobby making this type of music at that time.

[@seankiesling2054]

Who were some other artist? I'd love to check them out

[@gacaptain]

@@seankiesling2054 For starters try Wreckx n Effect (feat. Teddy Riley) - New Jack Swing {1989}, Guy - Groove Me (Most any Guy song), , My Prerogative - Bobby Brown, Tony Tone Toni - Feels Good, Christopher Williams - I’m Dreamin, Teddy Riley - Is it Good to You, Today - Why you Gettin Funky, BBD - Poison.

Oh yeah...another good one!!

[@hevyonez97]

Girl, you just don't even know...Bobby DOMINATED in 1988-90, everything he touched turned to GOLD and MULTI-PLATINUM!! a lot of us were in high school when this album came out in June 1988, by the time 1989 came Bobby was at #1 with both the Don't Be Cruel album on the pop and r&b charts, but My Prerogative was at #1 on both charts as well...Bobby was all over in walkmans, car stereos, clubs and parties and get togethers and summer barbecues...you name it, and Bobby was definitely part of it...you would have loved the 80s, we all had us a great time! 👍🏿😁

[@PlanetJ32]

New Edition - Candy Girl, Mr. Telephone Man.If it isn't Love,Cool it Now...do all of these..they are awesome! Bobby Brown was in this group as a teen,before he went solo.

[@laurenmckee9623]

I was 10 years old when this came out. I can tell you, for sure, people were rocking out to this, especially kids my age!

[@EndTimeDreams]

I was 9, I remember my cousin and I were competing to get the tape cassette first! Greetings from New Zealand

[@Devin-eg8ms]

I was 18

[@Rockaria23]

If you haven't, you should react to New Edition - Candy Girl from 1983. Bobby was only 13 or 14 when he was part of that group.

[@PlanetJ32]

And Mr. Telephone Man..yes..take me back!! lol

[@mulicharts]

@@PlanetJ32 don´t forget "Cool It Now"

[@firstofhername2329]

I thought of these too

[@akumulight]

Candy Girl the single came out in 1982 album came out in 83 sorry to be that person

[@Rockaria23]

@@akumulight The single was released on February 24th 1983 here in the UK. It probably charted in America in 82 :)

[@CaptainCaveman1170]

The energy and spirit of the entire 80's was so fun and uplifting. Then around 1993 things started feeling different.

[@RobertSmith-js2kz]

Earlier.

[@arturoperez1299]

React to " don't be cruel " bobby brown

[@shannonbennett987]

I don't know if I've ever seen anybody who's dancing came so naturally. It was just part of him and flowed out easy. I just wish he hadn't spoiled this song with the rap.

[@cookypuss8603]

Bobby Brown was on top of the world when this album dropped. Every song on the album and at least 6 charting singles. Keep it coming! Don't Be Cruel or Rock Wit Cha next

[@KarlMcMAn]

Miss these days. People could sing and dance

[@shortblockflexinit5219]

Yes young lady, that's how we got down. And Bobby was a dancing fool back then.

[@mrchrisk36]

Bobby's haircut was called the Gumby based on a claymation kids show called Gumby and friends from the 70s and 80s also the music was called new jack swing it combined elements of rap dance r&b if you liked this check guy and Al b sure

[@JessieMouse8]

Wooo this brings back some memories! I think I was in 8th grade when this song came out. It was THE JAAAAMMMM ❤️.

[@kelliefish7695]

This was REAL HIP HOP music back then. Not the Junk they have now.

[@primeminister66]

@Old School Indeed

[@dfree1442]

This is a branch of contemporary R&B known as "New Jack Swing".

[@rmathis268]

I wouldn't label this hip hop

[@jennyleigh63]

I can’t decide whether I like the song more or your reaction to it! I love your expressiveness!

[@threseasingh2477]

India makes me smile even when I don't want to!

[@sheilameyers152]

Bobby Brown makes you mooove those hips! Your facial expressions India...oh boy!!!

[@Boogiesince]

Bobby was that guy!!! People don’t understand that! He was the precursor to Usher and Chris Brown. Chris always gives MJ the nod for his inspiration, but Bobby was more of his likeness. Singing, rapping, dancing. And Dont Be Cruel is a Diamond album (over 10 million copies sold). The don’t just give those diamond awards away.

[@yesimsixtyfive]

This was the jam back in the day. That album is his best work. I would recommend Guy, "Groove Me". Thanks for posting.

[@MrCzarGuy1]

Guy first album was so good

[@1970boobear]

Yes yes yaaaaaaassss!!! Omg Guy please!! 😍

[@nichole8030]

Late 80's early 90's R&B /Hip Hop was like no other. . . Best years of my life. My roommate and I did the dance moves in our living room. . . #GOODTIMES

[@dtee78]

i grew up in this era, and I absolutely loved your reaction

[@tequila_mockingbird547]

Yes this was the shit. Late 80s and 90s music was 🔥. New Edition, 112, Jodeci, Guy, BBD; they were all awesome!

[@elainepablo8104]

Yes. Bobby Brown was big. I’m class of 1990. Radio, MTV when it’s focused on music videos. Parties, I often played my Bobby Brown CD. We heard his music everywhere. He was also part of New Edition which was an amazing boy band. His music was the soundtrack of my tween and teen years.

[@Budini67]

Love me some old school Bobby Brown. :DD Good choice, India! Also check ouy 'My prerogative' and 'Humpin' Around'! You'll like them too.

[@kristimarriner7673]

Definitely!😄

[@sandwich7457]

I forgot about Humpin’ Around 😂 So good!

[@terry21651]

Bobby was the KING of what is called NEW JACK SWING. Look it up.

[@LA-fz5qw]

Oh Bobby Brown before he went crazy

[@AnalogX64]

This track was and is still amazing, I was 18 when it hit the radio and some of the other tracks from this album was amazing as well.

[@Elke_KB]

More fun memories. Back in 1991 my friend & I took a bus from Toronto to Buffalo to see Bobby Brown, Johnny Gill, Bel Biv Devoe and Keith Sweat in concert. The hassels at the border were worth it. Keith Sweat is a must listen to. My favourite is Make It Last Forever. Also good are Nobody, I Want her. Look for the soundtrack for New Jack City - there are some good songs on there - For The Love Of Money ft. Queen Latifah.

[@loriwishman1866]

Rapper and had a good voice, too. Miss back in the day. He was underrated.

[@kitty1376]

I was in love with Bobby Brown when I was about 12 or 13. I had this album and listened to it all the time! I suggest "On Our Own" by him from the Ghostbusters 2 soundtrack.

[@llw53one]

I remember the world premiere came on and all sat around the tv wide eyed so excited. World premieres when a video was first released was a big thing back then.

[@Joker-mo8tb]

This gem is produced by Babyface and LA Reid (the ultimate 80's producer Team )

[@NativeNYerChicHK]

Bobby Brown “My Prerogative” and hits from the band he was in called New Edition; Cool it Now, Candy Girl, Mr. Telephone Man - just to name a few!!!

[@williamfenerson7456]

Despite his personal problems, Bobby Brown was a hell of an entertainer. He ruled the 80s and 90s.

[@ramoduff9399]

Well it's not considered hip hop . It's more to be Swingbeat or NEW JACK SWING. Teddy Riley and Babyface were the forerunners of this genre.

[@eeshelton]

People forget what a huge star Bobby was at that time. He was more than just Whitney Houston’s husband. You could argue that he was just as big as Whitney during 1988-90. His stuff was all over the radio.

[@desertlillie9659]

I was a mere Twenty something and we rock to this song. I remember cranking the FM station in my car to this song. I love to see the reaction of the younger generation when they hear this song. The radio always played the clean version. ❤

[@antoinettelopes]

Every time this video came on, I would jump up and do the choreography with them. I only didn't do it now because I don't want to break my floor. lol I did do a seated version as I still remember the moves. Dancing was actually an important thing for the Mtv Generation (aka Gen X). We had a show called "Club Mtv" that came on in the afternoon. I would dance along to that too. Every afternoon after school. Your generation missed out. I'm only realizing how much watching these reactions. My other dance songs that I cannot NOT dance to are "Let the Music Play" by Shannon and "It Takes Two" by Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock. As far as Bobby Brown goes, he was really talented and I still await a major comeback. He kinda just became the villain in Whitney Houston's story which was unfair. You must react to "Don't Be Cruel". I think it's his best song. He was pretty huge at the time. He even did the theme for Ghostbusters 2. You might also want to try "Poison" by Bel Biv Devoe and "Motownphilly" by Boyz II Men. His former band mates from New Edition were also involved in those records.

[@db6655]

From the first time I heard this until now, this song never gets old. I still love "Rub Me the Right Way" by Johnny Gill and "Motown Philly" by Boys 2 Men too.

[@waynekennedy7922]

I was 11 when this was released. Brilliant song then and still is now.

[@thegamechangermenoken3123]

In the 80s Bobby was a beast!!! That album was nothing but hits!

[@the_vile_one.]

You could not hear this without getting on the dance floor. Brought a lot of sunshine, and good times.

[@dunstabledagger]

It was Jack Swing in the US and Swing Beat in the UK. He was with Whitney Houston.

[@dametherealproductions]

bobby brown , baby face , LA Reid was a force back then this still sounds good!

[@kevinlilly6198]

I WAS IN THE EIGHTH GRADE WHEN THIS CAME OUT. MAN DO I FEEL OLD! LOL!

[@llw53one]

Great reaction video! Bobby was the man back then. After he left New Eddition (The group was very successful) he really blew up!

[@bakercarl8518]

Bobby's break out album, was the one to have!!!!

[@shawngross5420]

Yes, we were jammin'! The music was so good. I was in high school at the time. We danced and looked so fine with our big hair, shoulder pads and tiered miniskirts. Lol. Fun times. And so wonderful to watch young folks discover our culture in the 1980s and 90s.

[@Bobskiboy85]

Love that you reviewed this...was final year high school for me so spent many nights dancing to this with good mates, good times. Yeh his hair cut was like Air Jordans lol...everyone who could get it, got it..also the baggy pants and the running man, and that cross over period with New Jack Swing style...yeh love it.

[@marystieff6654]

I loved your reaction. I was 13 yrs old and absolutely in love with Bobby Brown when this video came out, I am 45 now. This was and still is my favorite video. As you stated wanting to learn the dance moves, I still remember them, because that's what we did after watching videos we learned the steps. I'm glad you took the time to review this. I hope you got an understanding of how good music was back then. Keep digging in the crates, there is so much more!

[@rickyogima]

sooo good - I still recall dancing in the club to this during the 80s

[@xcellent-records]

Other songs worth reacting to of Bobby Brown "Rock Witca"" "Roni" and "Humpin' Around"

[@alvajjoe]

Roni and Rock Wit'cha was my jam in middle school dances lol

[@PeckiePeck]

This seems like such a fun time for music. Such feel-good, catchy, upbeat music.

[@mwdallas1]

It was. I thank God every day I was born in 1967.

[@swacfan100]

Bobby was more of a pioneer than ppl give him credit for. He helped usher in hip hop mixing with R&B. But went solo from New Edition, he disappeared for a while, but when he hit with My Perogative and Dont Be Cruel, you knew he wasn't playing around. New Edition & others had to catch up to him.

[@JourdySizzle]

I'm 35, but my sister is 13 years older than me. I grew up listening to Bobby and Janet bc of her. And they are EVERYTHING to me STILL!

[@rbodee]

"My Prerogative" was his signature song. You should check it out! ☺

[@blaze4888]

I was just thinking the same thing.

[@catriniasmith4833]

Bobby Brown is an entertainer, you should watch him live from this same album in Japan. He is like Tom Jones when it comes to hip moves. Bobby is an Icon!

[@MetalMcfly]

I was 14 when this dropped and bought it on cassette at Sam Goody music store at the mall. This was considered the New Jack Swing era of Hip-Hop. So many amazing songs and artists in that era. My friends made fun of me endlessly because I'm a metal head but I didn't care, if it sounds good... I'm rockin with it.

[@alopez9149]

No B words towards women, no N words, just great music to dance to. I was in the Marine Corps stationed in Japan when this came out. Brings back memories. Awesome singer!!

[@lordmaul3]

This genre of music is called New Jack Swing. New Jack Swing was popular during the mid 80's to Mid 90's. Teddy Riley from the group Guy spearheaded this style of music.

[@darrendarren9730]

I remember wearing out the cassette of Don't Be Cruel. Too many bangers especially side A which had Don't Be Cruel, Rock Witcha, Roni, and My Prerogative. All classic R&B songs you should hear!

[@angelinaramon]

I've always been a fan of Bobby Brown. He was awesome.

Bobby brown was my fan girl crush as a teenager. This album was loaded with bangers. Still love him to this day. Especially after his new series “every little step “has been airing.

He has overcome so many major obstacles and losses in his life and I’m so proud of him that he is still here today and still standing! (Bobby B❤️‍🩹😘)

This album was the pinnacle of his success. At the time, he was known as the King of R&B because he had 3 number one R&B hits and 5 top 5 R&B hits from this album.

Tracked the cd down for my 15 yr old for Christmas. We love this album so much lol!! I’m 36 and I remember them playing this on the radio when I was a kid kid. Love this period of music. How the heck are there people that haven’t heard it!! Lol

I totally remember I was about 10 when this album came out and I had it on tape. I'd started listening to the radio the year before (U2, REM, Def Leppard, INXS) - so much good music that still makes me smile was coming out around then.

[@jaysonreyes9412]

I graduated in 1986. Hip Hop was hitting, Rap, New Wave, Hard Rock, Metal, house parties and it was all good.
