FIRST TIME HEARING After 7 - Ready or Not REACTION

[@nerdsoup2958]

Bruuuuh this is one of my fave songs EVER. Y'all channel is really bringing life back to songs forgotten which happens naturally thru generations. Y'all dope for that 💯

[@angelinarobertson2130]

I love too see their generation appreciating the music I grew up on, but the diversity as well!! Salute my babies❤️❤️

[@cjohnson_]

Yes!!!! Def one of my all time favs.

[@anthonyzarate9807]

ALSO one of my favorite songs!!!!!!!!

[@nerdygirltravels]

This song still gives me chills. R&B perfection for sure!

[@tlewisisdope]

The two lead singers are Babyface's older brothers, Melvin (the one with the heavier tone) and Kevon (the high tenor). Face wrote and produced this

[@antionettemason1617]

Kelvon is the Baby. Mevin was older..

[@nelliepghgal4439]

Definitely Babyface’s older brothers. Babyface is the youngest. Google.

[@brynneholt1990]

When Babyface is the least talented vocalist in the household…sheesh! (Notice I said “vocalist”, not overall.)

[@tlewisisdope]

[@Sooopa_Doopa]

@@antionettemason1617 Kevon is a year and change older than Babyface but for a long time looked the youngest

[@kimberlyfairbanks8330]

"CAN'T STOP" is another hit by this group!

[@glamazon79]

Can't stop is a favourite of all time 😍😍😍

[@foryenteevans7637]

the remix the best my gym teacher was playing its

[@leidellgettis7926]

One of my favorite quiet storm songs. A love song that is NOT explicit!!!!! You guys got a winner.

[@Triggerhippie70]

I miss the quiet storm! Was every Saturday night in Miami where I grew up

[@joannbrooker9282]

I loved After 7 and this song is beautiful. Broke my heart when Melvin Edmonds passed away too soon; Babyface's older brother. Great choice of song brothers! Thank you for posting.

[@MindTrickedX24]

"Don't you know don't you know you should know!" Yessir! Folks wrote the HELL out of songs back in the day, and singers sang the hell out of those same songs. No auto-tune or studio tricks - just straight singers. Man. More After 7? "Can't Stop," "In the Heat of the Moment," "Baby I'm for Real (Natural High)," "Nights Like This," and "One Night" will get you started.

[@Triggerhippie70]

This is when music was real

[@monewilliams6245]

that's my favorite part of the song..yo the lil brother kevon Edmunds sung TF outta this song. I'm a 89 baby. this song came out in my yr so its definitely a vibe and my low key love language 😩🤦🏾‍♀️🥰🎶🎤

[@NikkiKNuvo]

That run he starts at 4:20 .... legendary Black vocals. If you're someone who really sings, I guarantee you go in on that part every time you hear this song lol

[@ssimmons1124]

Yall bringing out the hits tonite! These are Babyface's brothers! This song was considered quiet storm r&b

[@audreyslivinglife]

Hey girl, why did a gator pop up when I clicked on your post?😂

[@ssimmons1124]

@@audreyslivinglife 😂😂

[@MoniMeka]

One of my favorite songs from them! So beautiful!

[@ksay6950]

I love their song "Til You Do Me Right"

[@KevinMilwaukee]

Absolutely right, these are their 2 best songs ever and 2 of the better R&B songs ever made.

[@foryenteevans7637]

and can't stop

[@dee_pendable1]

Love, love, love this song!

[@WarPhoenix]

So do I

[@NeptuneLady1957]

In the Heat of the Moment!! RIP Melvin❤️

[@latricet5569]

Oookay, you guys coming with the 90's R&B bangers. Great group. Loved After 7 and this song.

[@ElfinMadness]

“He’ll give you his socks,” - LMAO.😂

[@Dollywood623]

Yeah….u guys getting there lil by lil…lol so many more to discover still. I had that After 7 cassette and wore it out playing my Walkman in the subway going to work back in the day along with Guy, LeVert, Jody Whatley. Al B Sure!, Karyn White and of course Keith Sweat. So many other great R&B singers. Favorite kind of genre 🔥

[@LondonTaytum6677]

This was our baby making love making music back in the day!!!! The best music was back then!! Miss these days so much!!

[@vgordon596]

Hit like before watching the reaction! 🙂 My favorite After 7 song! One of Babyface's masterpieces!👏🏾After 7 delivered on the vocal front! Listen to the words!! Pure love song! Thanks for the reaction! Take care. 🙂

[@EroticExotic3]

same!

[@jasondecorah1227]

Listen to the song "I care about you" from the group Milestone, which has the two singers from After 7 and KC and JoJo from Jodeci. And watch the song from when they were on the Oprah Winfrey show! It'll show case their voices live and it's a treat to watch the women go crazy!

[@sonjabethay2277]

Yessss, they killed that performance

[@findingthefearlesslifeamy7625]

Yes! That was a good one. Best of 2 groups. The song was from the movie Soul Food, right?

[@brynneholt1990]

That’s what I was going to say!

[@NeptuneLady1957]

Yeah, baby!

[@susanthompson7371]

BabyFace family of singers!!!🎤🎤🎤🎤 After7!❤️

[@TaureanReignReloaded]

see, now y'all done tapped in. Now you have to really go through After 7 catalog. And they are still making music to this day. RIP Melvin Edmonds who was the first person who sang on this song with the opening lead vocals followed by his brother Kevon with second lead vocals. This was a trio of men who could SANG

[@jackiec.7617]

There use to be the term "soul music" they definitely have that soul.. Some beautiful soul music out there..

[@sadeluster4309]

Hey guys! Another After 7 song you might like is 'Heat of The Moment'. It has a New Jack swing vibe to it.

[@elijay2482]

One of my favs

[@atlblissxxxpresents6147]

Loved this one more than Can’t Stop

[@fantasyguru26]

Here is the track listing on their debut self titled album released in August 1989. All tracks except 1 and 4 were produced by Babyface & L.A. Reid. Kayo and Darryl Simmons produced 1 and 4. 01. Don't Cha Think 02. Heat of the Moment, #5 R&B, #19 Pop 03. Can't Stop #1 R&B, #6 Pop 04. My Only Woman 05. Love's Been So Nice 06. One Night 07. Ready or Not #1 R&B, #7 Pop 08. Sayonara I believe Don't Cha Think and One Night also may have entered the R&B charts but can't confirm that. No skips on this album.

[@kurtadams3021]

The LEGENDARY After 7

[@catherinecooper-wc]

After 7 … one of my most favorite groups ever … my favorite song ever!!! These are Babyface brothers

[@tropics71]

Such a beautiful song, this took me back. Thanks for the memories!!

[@rebeccakurtz7575]

This group just brings a FEELING!!! MMMMMM HMMMMMM!!!

[@MC_LaMaya]

They was coming out the church back in the days. Had the gospel energy and soul for real. Great pick fam!

[@johnashley327]

The whole album is 🔥.

[@jackie_jrml]

Love this song. Late 80’s/early 90’s R&B 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@PhillyJawn_215]

Loooooved this song. My unc was a music head growing up so I knew a lot of songs that I prob shouldn't have. I remember hearing this song on the radio. Glad I grew up in the era with classic hits like this.

[@florenceprickett5639]

Whew! KEVON‼️‼️‼️

[@keithbates598]

After 7 nice song!!! Thanks Tim and Fred. Joan and Keith Bates

[@marco.d.c.]

My favorite by them is "Heat of the Moment"

[@ldybozz]

This was one of my jams! My favorite was CAN'T STOP. After 7 was the shhhhhhhhhh*ttt

[@mzelroberts]

Facts!!!

[@carriebrady1374]

One of my all time favorite jams. This on the Quiet Storm with Luther, Anita, & Smokey ... ooh, yeah.

[@paulnsilasfuntime9591]

ya can't help but fall in love with after 7...so solid and loving.. powerful stuff.

[@NayeBtcch17]

After 7 Is Not In The Old School R&B Conversation Enough!!! I’m So Glad Y’all Reacted To This! They’re One Of My Fave R&B Groups! Y’all Have To React To “Sara Smile” &/or “Not Enough Hours In The Night”

[@anthonyzarate9807]

P.S. Kevon Edmunds is one of the best male singers ever. I've actually heard him called the male Whitney! A lot of my friends and family thought it was a woman singing!

[@RTDavis0503]

Yeah he's a counter tenor. The best in history. The next closet to him is Emmanuel Johnson lead singer of Enchantment, or Mark Middleton from Blackstreet.

[@Jchill1991]

You should check out a group called Surface. Their hits included You are my Everything, Closer than just friends, and Can we Spend some time.

[@loritajohnson5664]

And 'Happy' was a great hit from Surface.

[@biancamoya-winegar8601]

Yup, I was gonna say "happy" too

[@marilynappleton5859]

Definitely one of the most beautiful songs ever! "Walked 1,000 miles sailed 1,000 seas, nothing will discourage me." That was a dope statement! 😍 Composition, arrangement, melody --- all on point. GREAT song!!Thanks for posting. Consider another banger from them, "Baby I'm For Real"! 😀

[@sharians-bluesky]

Definitely!

[@avakate7747]

Listen to After 7, Can’t Stop

[@danaehernandez6794]

Such an underrated song

[@randerson7]

I wore this After 7 cassette out back in the day! You could definitely tell the Babyface influence. Great 90s RnB!

[@andreasteele2814]

I've always loved this group!

[@aj2590]

A classic! Good to see you guys going down the wormhole of R&B from this era. If you ever get a chance, I recommend Milestone “I Care About You.” They consist of Babyface, two of After 7’s members (Babyface’s brothers) and K-Ci & JoJo.

[@dianejohnson2644]

Yes Live version on Oprah Winfrey show.

[@disaleannborkowski301]

YES " I care about you "!!!!!😊💕

[@cookypuss8603]

This right here is one of the best rb songs ever!

Indeed. What a great sample use.

[@phats89]

I love it when next generations learn and enjoy the great music that has come before their time. So many classics and legendary singers and songs to experience. I wish i can experience these for the first time again

[@theveeshowhere]

One of my all time favs that is still on my playlist💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@Otisjones101]

I recommend "Lo-Key? I Got A Thang For Ya" it's another R&B Classic

[@jewelofaries]

And after the Tony's comes After 7? The New Jack Swing years. What pleasure have you brought to my ears tonight !! These are Babyface's brothers and cousin by the way.

Bring back Love Songs! Bring back righteous R&B. Beautiful wedding song back in the day!

[@Rightonrightoff]

Right. Whatever happen to incredibly r&b that was regal, sensual and classy… nowadays r&b artists trying to be rappers I don’t get it. What happen to writing songs that are timeless smh

[@erincinco913]

Yessssss! I can't remember if I suggested this, but I'm so glad you listened!

[@fantasyguru26]

Youngloods - this is my favorite r&b group of all time. I love love the reaction. Its nice to see the younger generation appreciating the music I grew up with. This was the group's most successful hit but they have three albums from 1989-1996 that are all fantastic. I highly recommend you peep them. Shout out to Kevon, Melvin (RIP), Keith and Babyface & L.A. Reid for what they accomplished. Timeless.

[@maddogg1978peru]

FIRST TIME HEARING THEM???!!!!! Was my initial reaction, but these cats are young. Haha. I remember jamming to this back in the days. Great song

[@Noneya2023]

I was 16 years old when this came out. Had the cassette girl! 🤣 Mmm. Mm. M. 🥰

[@shericebsperspective]

Definitely another banger!!! 🔥 🎶

[@kennethcelorio4937]

[@anytimejammin-eva]

Oh yeah! We used to joke and say The Deele? What's the Deal. Ok,bad joke then and now too! ☺️ And what about Tevin Cambell, Johnny Gill, Tony! Toni!Toné! And the great Eric Clapton (if I could) Change the World.Those were the days! The list of great songs is SO long. But I do need to add The Woman's Anthem song as Babyface calls it! LOL Superwoman! by Karyn White. 🙌👏🤟

[@monicabailey3177]

Y'all are on one today! These groups during this time (The 90's) were something else! Check out Can't Stop. Also, check out their cousin Babyface "Whip Appeal" and the group he came from, The Deele "Two Occasions"

[@monicabailey3177]

*Brother" not cousin

[@michellen2168]

I had after 7 cd in 90 they where the 💣. the music 🎶 was baby making music 🎶 back in the days

[@sharonjarrett8953]

The Groups back than men or women sung about love, and sung from their hearts that’s the difference and when you hear them it gets straight to your soul and heart, and men showed love to women they where more open about their feelings and expressed it more than today generation I love the music back than.

[@findingthefearlesslifeamy7625]

Yes...back in the 90's the R&B was smooth.
