New Edition performing at Essence Music Fest 2011

New Editions performance at the 2011 Essence Music Festival held in New orleans 4th of July weekend.

[@keystonestatewarrior3358]

The best part about NE, to me, other than them performing together still, is that all the original members are still breathing.

[@toneejai7358]

Ase'

[@sweetblaqcoffey962]

Amen!

[@blessedinchrist88haleluyah77]

[@conniemoore1786]

BOBBY STILL have HIS voice here💖

[@crystalford-nelson4054]

The host! He delivered the epic line: "The are NOT the old edition; they are still the New Edition". Now that was a boss line!

[@karrinabrown5067]

That's Nephew Tommy, Steve Harvey's nephew.

[@ronnelljohnson103]

I always love when I see six members

[@ladiiblue2u634]

Ronnell Johnson me too

[@constancemcclure7785]

yassss 🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@NoLaGurl18]

Ronnell Johnson we went beserk when Bobby came out on that stage 'cause the fans really weren't expecting to see him!

[@lisapettiford6506]

Yesssssss

[@louissmithiii3134]

NE is definitely our temptations of today's generation. New Edition always.

[@kimberlycrenshaw3806]

[@onlyinoz8898]

I will always pick Ralph over Johnny . Loved the show with the OG's of New Edition back together again !!Best ever

[@Speq100]

Their swagger is unmatched and never will the world witness such swagger

[@dahandyman9696]

Agreed

[@sweetblaqcoffey962]

I agree that they got mad swag but I'll always believe Barack Obama is the ultimate swag. Not getting political, but if you had seen him Inauguration Day 2009, the way he BOPPED out when introduced to give the oath!! WHAT!! I lost my complete and total shit!

[@CandySweetTexas]

Didnt think Bobby could still sing but he did his thing... I love NE

[@stonedog238]

Why did you even think that?

[@wifeyb.9779]

CandySweetTexas ive see some not so good performances of his i thought that too

[@mrwoods13]

Crisp, precise, moves make their choreography elite.

[@MZDezi1010]

I think he wasn't singing when he got with Whitney but now that he's singing more often he has retrained his voice. Plus Bobby has health issues

[@Serinity777]

Ricky is so underrated. He has so much potential vocally but stay in the shadow.. 11:38 love it!

[@dahmeneekah]

Yes. And if he'd have died it still would have been a real shock. It happens in a lot of groups though.

[@MarkAntney]

His Lead on slow cuts on the BBD Albums and he has about 3 similar cuts on a Solo Album that are very good,..Co-Sign your note on Rick being underrated.

[@moreflowfalls2404]

Naturally Ricky is the one.

[@jonesfredrick94]

Naturally You really got that right for sure

[@deer.4651]

Naturally agreed. you have to have a certain personality type to be ok with playing the back role. hes that dude tho

[@reformer6666]

Their choreography was never a joke. Some of the best ever! #BrookPayne

[@constancemcclure7785]

Amen too that 😁

[@takerkellygiveusbacktupac617]

Especially in this era.

[@selenad221]

NE needs a new concert/behind the scenes video like on Netflix or something. That would be so amazing.

[@jonesfredrick94]

Selena Davis they need a Big block buster movie not just the Bet movie

[@selenad221]

Fredrick Jones Yes sir, like MJ's "This Is It"

[@jonesfredrick94]

Selena Davis That's it and I need to star in it as well

I was there and I stood up the entire time. I love it when they are all together. Can't wait until the next tour.

[@kristintee6808]

I hope Bobby gets back down to this size for the all six tour they're going to do this year so he can have his endurance cause his vocals were on point here. New Edition as 6 is a cash cow!!

New Edition for Life! Bobby has always been my favorite! Saw him perform in the Bahamas many years ago when I was on my honeymoon from Jersey. He was performing at the resort that my husband and I were staying at and we didnt know it until we happened to see Bobby Brown arriving with his team. I told Bobby how much of a fan I was and he gave us free VIP access to the sold out show. One memory that I will never forget. That was late 80s. Wow! The show was amazing. He is an awesome entertainer. I wonder if he remembers. Lol! #lovebobbybrown
