I don't think they disrespected him personally, but I do know they weren't feeling the song and not because it wasn't good but it had the same type vibe as "End Of The Road" but they have worked with Babyface plenty of times since then even after Motown. Marc Nelson also wrote songs with and for Babyface and his artists which is how he became a part of Az Yet, Az Yet were signed to LaFace and were put together by Babyface.

[@kennedyrhodes409]

Please be advised, just if anyone didn't know, the masterminds behind The Boyz 2Men Volume Two album, were SuperProducers TIM KELLY and BOB ROBINSON. The duo of Tim&Bob, whom was given the major task by Dallas Austin to produce that sophomore album, which became their most highlighted award winning album.

[@LotusLady]

I was SOOOOO in love with Mike. Ironically, I ended up getting diagnosed with MS shortly before he did. MS is no joke, and many ppl don't understand the real toll it takes on your body and mind. I have had to retire from my career because of it. I feel his pain. OAN, it amazes me that Nate tries to act like Dallas Austin is lying about how horrible they were! And now, Kandi has said the same. When I was in college, they came for a concert, and fans couldn't wait to see the show. The show was lackluster, and for the ppl who had backstage passes, they were treated like we were beneath them. I mean, HORRIBLE, arrogant, nasty! All except for Shawn. Mike wasn't as bad. But that WANYA...OMG--horrible person, and Nate wasn't far behind. It was so bad that ppl were throwing their CDs and cassettes in the trash on campus. This was mid 90s LOL.

[@sarabennett6295]

wow after watching this I don’t know if I could listen to their music anymore. Sorry to hear about your MS condition. I think Mike was brave to finally tell the world he has MS. It was cruel of his ex wife to cut off his relationship to their kids tho. That’s messed up

Don't know how true this is but one thing I noticed is that everyone that worked with them complained about their inflated egos after becoming successful.
