[@phoney4387]

Uncle Brooke is the 6th member,Johnny is the 7th but never the last❤

[@wiredup886]

​@hereiyamthat's a lie hater😮

[@lumedeon8471]

He did good!

[@jAITtROtULL]

Not gonna lie, I teared up hearing Bobby. I can't imagine being him and having to make it through life after losing two children, still, he has his others to think about and he is a great dad. So proud of him for pushing through. On another note, Bell is so smooth, I love his voice and Gill killed it as he always does (Dat mofo can sang!!!!).

[@shymcg]

I shed tears as well!!! It was a beautiful thing to see!!!! ❤🙏🏽❤️

[@captaincrunch104]

Cant nobody sing but Johnny and Ralph

[@yolandachisholm177]

[@nexxlevel4590]

Man Ricky’s voice DOES NOT get enough credit. He can stand to toe with the best of them. Sir Ricky Bell

[@annietripp8035]

Absolutely, so underrated..

[@nelsonshonda0703]

Yes, when I was younger, I loved them all; but, Ricky was my favorite singer and Ronnie was my favorite dancer!

[@l74life2]

He certainly has my vote. He has a beautiful, strong lead voice. Job well done.

[@karenhall8330]

[@hollywood101usa]

The Spinners being one of the best soul groups from the 1970s. Having them finally inducted into the rock hall of fame is well overdue. New Edition gave The Spinners such a flawless respectful tribute.

[@annette2058]

Wished Phillppe was still around to see it. His voice really gave the Spinners their signature sound.

[@lexdee523]

New Edition strikes again. They did a superb job on the Spinners tribute induction. Hats🎩 off to all of them.

[@AngelHoll]

Who is brooke payne? And who is the oldest in New edition? Ron?

[@valeriebillings7248]

@@AngelHoll Brooke Payne is the choreographer and he’s Ronnie’s uncle. Ronnie & Ricky are the oldest members. Bobby is the youngest but they’re all like a year or 2 apart.

[@bettyA7598]

New Edition, you really should be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame because this is long overdue.

[@lindadane3655]

The "New Edition" gave the best covers I've ever heard. Those brothers were TIGHT!!!! Congratulations to "The Spinners." You earned this moment. And thank both groups for laying it all on the line to give us joy and happy feet and moments of reflection. Blessings to All.

[@wiliamwilson8886]

Rick and Bob crushed it here! So proud of all these guys and their achievements! Love to see them getting their flowers!

[@chinenyemin1133]

My Gen X heart! I applauded after watching. Thank you for your wonderful tribute to my father's favorite group. Only New Edition could have done such justice!

[@TAMMIESMITH5]

That was my father's favorite group too. Lost him last year. He loved Sadie

[@clarencewright7101]

Well, The SPINNERS are my favorite group as well. LOVE ME SOME SPINNERS. I Caught it. They WERE your father's favorite group. Sorry for yours & your families lost. I could tell your father had GREAT music. I'm sure he was an AWESOME father as well. God's got you all. PLEASE BELIEVE THAT. LOVE & PRAYERS FOR U & YOUR FAMILY.

[@lawandahenderson9615]

I love seeing this because I remember my father playing the original 45s of each one of these songs. New edition did a beautiful tribute.

[@thequeendiva72]

I smile each time i see all six of them together. Why? Because no matter what each one went thru they've always held each other down. Friends who become Family like that are rare and groups still being able to stick together this long and still blend together yes it's time for New Edition to get their star and their rock and Roll Hall Of Fame inductees in 2024 **hint* *. The last group i seen with all of the original members years later was heck i can't even name one that i can remember 🤣 🤣. STAY SAFE EVERYONE. GOD BLESS US ALL 🙏🏾 🙏🏾.

[@HuWi]

@thequeendiva Well said! Ronnie once said that the six of them together is something special. I agree. They have a star on the WOF. Now we need the induction to the R & R HOF, now!

[@moondoggy02116]

You know you’ve done something right in the world when people who never met you root this hard for your success. I stand in awe of them after 40 years.

[@MinTimothyTate]

Long overdue! This clip was so ON POINT! Thank you New Edition for this amazing tribute. We have to admit that the Spinners were one of the groups that defined Black Music during the late 70’s/early 80’s along with EWF, Con fun Shun, and the like.

[@clarencewright7101]

DAM MAN! GOT ME DROPPING A FEW TEARS. AWESOME JOB. THE SPINNERS HAS ALWAYS BEEN ONE OF MY TOP/ FAVORITE GROUPS. I HAD FRIENDS & FAMILY CALLING & TEXTING ME LETTING ME KNOW THAT THE SPINNERS ( FINALLY ) MADE IT IN. I WAS 17 YEARS OF AGE WHEN I JOINED THE ARMY. MY MOTHER HAD TO SIGN FOR ME TO GET IN. SHE ENCOURAGED ALL OF USE TO JOIN THE MILITARY. I'D NEVER- EVER BEEN AWAY FROM HOME. MAN! TALK ABOUT SCARE & LONESOME. I REMEMBER AFTER OUR CLASSES. I WOULD GO BACK TO MY BARRAGES. CRY, PUT ON THE SPINNERS ALBUMS. THEY CALMED ME DOWN. GOT ME BACK TO REALITY. THEY TRULY HELPED ME THROUGH IT. IT GOT BETTER. AND I GAIN A LOT OF FRIENDS. I ALSO REMEMBER THE TWO YEARS STRAIGHT THAT THE SPINNERS DIDN'T MAKE IT IN. TALK ABOUT DISAPPOINTMENT. I JUST SAID, WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON HERE. I TRIED WRITING INTO THE ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME. ONLY ONE ORIGINAL MEMBER STILL LIVES. TOM BELL, LINDA CREED. R.I.P TO THE MEMBERS WHO'S GONE TO BE IN THE LOVING ARM'S OF GOD. THANKS SO VERY, VERY MUCH FOR THE WONDERFUL MEMORIES. NEW EDITION, MAN! U GUYS TORE IT UP. GREAT TRIBUTE FOR AN AWESOME GROUP. FROM AN AWESOME GROUP. U GUYS ARE ALSO ONE OF MY FAVORITE GROUPS. WILL BE PULLING FOR U GUYS TO BE INDUCTED IN NEXT. THANK U NEW EDITION. AND THANKS FOR THIS POST. MUCH LOVE & PRAYERS FOR ALL WHO READ THIS.

[@jrobinson8825]

I remember their first single. We thought it was an old Jackson 5 song. They impressed us then and they continue to impress us now. Very good entertainers.

[@drgeorgetayloriii4280]

Man - they can easily have a second movie. All lead singers are "smashing it." Ralph looks perfectly content to back-up his brothers - he was smiling just as much as anyone. Ricky always been smooth - you Slick, blow! A true brotherhood.

I just read in the Spinners thanks to New Edition for the tribute, they said they used to call New Edition "Baby Spinners" in the 80's when they were kids. What a compliment, because the Spinners were some bad boys!!!
