Youngsters out there, I'm 48 years old. I was 15 when Dont be cruel was released and you couldn't cut the radio on or the TV on without either listening watching a single from that album. It was truly a world wide phenomenon at that time. Had he stayed clean off the stage and truly put in that work like MJ, he could have truly taken it to that level. The prime Bobby's career only lasted 3 albums from 1986-1992. He still a R&B King to me. Even though he struggles to keep up on stage these days, I know what he used to do because I saw him at the end of his prime in 1997 during the home again tour. Much love and respect always to the King of Stage

[@4mydearlady]

Exactly! I was 14

[@alivialdores978]

I was 14 and it's cool to hear someone else experienced Bobby the same way I did back in 1988. There has been nothing like that "phenomenon" since. I remember going to a New Edition, Bobby Brown, Al B Sure, concert in 1989, and couldn't believe how much better his performance was than his former group, and New Edition always comes correct. Bobby was simply "the man"!

[@chriso8193]

Well, a lot of people knew LA/Babyface and Teddy did the tracks that made the hits. That one album gave him a good run. It came out in 1988, but the Grammy came in 1990. King of R&B???? Not really, that's just some shit Whitney started and people cling to. Stevie Wonder is the King of R&B. As far as new vocalists...Aaron Hall was the best. But after that album, it was all downhill. Great performer, but not the King (Smokey was still getting Grammy's, so was Aretha and Gladys and Anita.

[@vincentbrown1872]

You are exaggerating he was never the " King of R&B " as there were more successful artists even during his hottest period which cooled quickly as his greatest album contained most of his big hits. It's more accurate to say for a few short years he was the heartthrob of young girls and the most exciting dancer we have seen since James Brown. The songs were hot and so was Bobby and he blew it all. I can compare him with how hot Lauryn Hill became with " The Miseducation " only to fall from the top rather quickly. As for the crowd they appeared mostly white as they should have been jumping up and down and grooving with the energy instead of sitting largely still.

Best Bobby Brown solo performance on an award show ever..

[@harryville3327]

Bobby brown one of our greatest performer dancer and singer of all time, GOD given talent unmatched in my opinion.

[@lorettamemphis]

James Brown brought the funk and the groove, Michael Jackson brought his electricfrying moonwalk and great vocals and then there is Bobby Brown swag, dance moves great vocals. Three incredible artist who all knew how to work the hell out of a stage floor. All three triple treats- can sing check, can dance oh yeah check, and last but not least mesmerising stage presence, yep check, check and check.

Facts

[@lorettamemphis]

@Michael Davis it is well known in the black community that EVERYBODY in show busness stole their moves from James Brown and Jackie Wilson, mostly from the godfather of soul. Also from earlier black dance entertainers. Bill BoJangle Robinson, Mr. Moonwalk, back slide himself Bill Bailey from 1943. He was probably during that move in the 30's as well. Brothers was putting down some smooth steps for the other nations to steal when those other entertainers were slumming in the hood in the day.

Can we bring these days back PLEASE??!!

[@BBFLY47]

My first time seeing this footage. This is probably the best live performance of him I’ve seen.

[@antoinechristopherofficial]

I don’t know what happened to this man but he surely had it all, unbelievably talented!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥🔥

[@JESUSISLORDFOREVERMORE888]

He is a prime example of WHAT drugs, alcohol and undisciplined lifestyle does to a person. The devil willing to give you, just about, whatever you want IF he can have your soul...THAT IS ALWAYS THE BARGAIN. It is your soul ( your most valued possession) he wants...and he will NOT settle for less. Many have sold their souls for fame, fortune and power; they learn too late that ETERNITY IN HELL is not worth it. It is weird that he would try to tempt JESUS with the same foolishness. Thank GOD that JESUS held HIS ground and would not buckle. If JESUS had, HE could not have saved my soul. I love YOU, JESUS, and thank YOU for loving me. Thank YOU, thank YOU, thank YOU😭👍🏾🙏🏾.

One of the greatest live award performances ever! The king of RnB!!!

[@monicafranklin-nr1te]

If Bobby would have sustained his talent over the years, he could arguably became one of the GREATS OF ALL TIME. BUT THE BOY WAS BAD AND U CAN'T TAKE NOTHING FROM HIM

[@lew708]

Look at the moves this dude was doing WHILE singing live...and not a whimper of breath loss.👊🏾🚀

[@jamesb.3869]

@@lew708 some parts of the performance he is lip-syncing especially on the bridge of my prerogative. You can’t sing and do two quick spins without a hard breath being between it. Even still it is an impressive performance either way

[@miamiller7585]

And they couldn't see how Whitney fell in love with Bobby. He was the man back then.

[@truth6533]

She and every Black woman in America! 😃

[@Mama_San]

When I watch Bobby Brown, I get very teary eyed. He reminds me so much, even as a child, of my now deceased nephew. It's bittersweet when I watch his performances because I'm thinking of my nephew. Similar life paths; however, my nephew passed away at 41 because his drug, alcohol use and fighting landed him in a nursing home with a brain injury for the last 14 years of his life. The lesions on his brain took him off this heart. Thank God for sparing your life, Mr. Bobby Brown. You always have my support and encouragement.

[@sparkleinyoureyes8259]

My generation always will love BB !! He brought a performance that full of energy ever time !!

Awesome dancer!! 0:53 Too smooth. He walked off like yeah I did that! Lol

Singing,dancing and rap,Bobby mastered all that at the same time.You can see where Usher and Cris Brown got it from.Bobby you will always be loved 👏👏

[@Krow3Th3Discipl3]

Whats crazy is his breath control while dancing and still keep great vocals. Mos R&B artists and MC's would kill to have that .Legend💪💪💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥
