[@davidjackson7190]

I agree everybody was supportive of each other.

[@feranmihall3268]

Awww when they played Algee's song, it was cute how Woody knew some of the parts and ad-libs and how they were all dancing and all. You can tell that they all really support each other and all. Their lives have all changed because of this project.

[@thatgirlmoniii6871]

Algee is so cute😍😩

[@NBAgladiator]

I was gonna comment this too. I love their brotherhood and the black boy joy the exude.

[@pendafen7405]

Are Algee & Woody still friends? Bc not to be parasocial but if they're not still besties it's gonna break my heart a bit

[@sarahj1740]

Woody is a chill dude, seems like the most humble.

[@heirsofthekingdom9810]

They have great chemistry, I love how Sway incorporated Woody. Woody does seem really chill.

[@Alexistalkstv]

Sarah J this was his first film too so I can imagine it being a humbling experience for him

[@curtissimmons2287]

ColeWorld andFreshHeirs he seem quiet

[@heirsofthekingdom9810]

Yeah, but he's crazy on his videos though lol. Proud to see something pure and positive...WE need that.

[@jasmonroy6351]

[@kaylajay6713]

"Melanin Magic, let's make some black babies" straight 🔥🔥

[@samagbasi]

This nigga Yazz is in an ENTIRELY different key at the beginning lol

[@jonniecehoward6207]

[@shahnajo8115]

I'm here for Woody! He seems like he has such a sweet soul. He was so quiet. Kinda like me especially in an environment like that. I just sit back, observe and take it all in. He will flourish when the time is right 🙂

[@ct3731]

This comment aged well!!!

[@adriannapugh100]

He is on the big screen three times with Ghost Power 🎉

[@her.3084]

Right

[@pendafen7405]

He was singing along to Algee's single though, that's his boy🥰😍

[@TheSweetcakes108]

When you speak on Elijah... COME CORRECT!! He is the most experience actor/singer in the group he's being in movies nominated for big awards he actually won a few himself . He been dong this acting thing since the late 90's! Almost 2 decades!!!He is "extra" bc he is theater guy and that's what they do. He is always in performance mode bc actors do that! Realize that most people don't know that bc he hasn't gotten the respect due! Although he already played iconic characters! And on top of that he was the one who made some of the newer guys come out if their shell. RECOGNIZE ELIJAH KELLYEY'S GREATNESS!

[@skycampbell9973]

GE Ellerbe96 YES

[@KvngTyger]

[@ChristianJoyD]

I'm not going to lie, I watched all 3 nights of the NE miniseries this week and I'm fighting the urge to watch it all again right now. It was SO freaking good. This full cast of talented black men just reaffirmed my love for brothers! 🙌🏾

The cast needs to do a musical tour, such talented group of young men... Amazing!!

[@Kimmica20]

Yes! I would try to get front row seats. They are all amazing. Love their brotherhood too.

[@imanipruitt4000]

The fact Woody knew some words of Algee's song at 11:42-11:55 is amazing. Love these guys bond together.

[@pendafen7405]

not to be parasocial but if they're not still besties it's gonna break my heart a bit

[@loveafrica97]

[@uriandropov7212]

Stacy Robinson So positive.

[@JordanClemons]

this interview just feels good. Salute black magic

[@Wildflower333]

This was a great interview but I'm disappointed that sway didn't give Elijah is recognition for his roles that's he been in. He a great singer and actor. He mentioned everyone else's accolades and achievements but not Elijah and he's been in the game for some time. I love his personality!

[@BCommentary23]

So happy for all of them!!!! Really excited to see this movie. Love their friendship, you can't help but smile.

[@ElleDan87]

BrittanyMaree ..yeah, and feel that black boy joy through the screen..lol

[@BCommentary23]

[@ThisisKalaTV]

ElleDan87 Absolutely 😊

[@tulaniredding6975]

Elijah Kelley killed that freestyle! It was poetic and raw at the same time. They all did. Love it! #blackboyjoy

[@jamieaustin4316]

Yazz was the perfect person to play Mike Bivins. He looks and sounds like him.

[@judyjones9207]

Black Boy Joy Movement...Love that! I'm in.

[@Chuckienycbx]

I don't think that Bobby Brown has ever been that quiet. :)

[@jusamakeover]

[@mayflower7811]

4everchris joy Yup and the #NewEditionStory starts tonight at 9pm on BET

[@jasonbailey3046]

[@Fiskgyrl2]

I'm made Sway didn't properly introduce Elijah Kelly, that boy has an impressive filmography

[@chasniehouston2000]

Fiskgyrl2 I said the same thing, it seems like he was looked over...i feel its because Elijah was a lil hype and he probably feel lijah was wanting spotlight...but to me it was pure excitement and raw love...sway was wrong for that.

[@keonta81]

Chasnie Houston I know right.hes actually been around the longest too

[@MsAva2012]

Chasnie Houston lol

[@inmyOWN_world]

Fiskgyrl2 I know em From Hairspray 😊😊

[@meccapcd]

yeah, that really annoyed me; most accomplished of everybody and he had to introduce himself basically lol

[@naturalhawa6467]

These are the young men our young brothers are supposed to be inspire by. Not all that crap that's going on in the music industry today. Would defiantly have this around my future son. 😍

[@Serinity777]

Elijah has such an old soul when he sing I'm transported in a past era. 25:07 Look at his gestures!!! So talented, man. Luke and him must make a song together!!!!!

[@Maddygurl12304996]

I love how they applaud and celebrate each other's success. I wish I could've heard a lil more from Woody but it's all good. I loved Algees freestyle 😂

[@taviaaaa]

Honestly the purest thing I've seen in a minute lol. Their happiness is everything !!!

[@time2travel0]

Elijah said "put some respect on my name" I been in this game!! lol!! I heard that! Love Woody as Bobby

[@AGEE_95]

They should be a real group! They vibe so well together.

[@sainttrunks1982]

Bobby Ain't never been that quiet in his life!

Elijah and Algee had the best free style! I love their personalities and brotherhood! Seeing this really makes me sad the series is over. Didn't want it to end!! Oh and Woody is so quiet.

[@arkishianorman]

sway has to be one of my favorite interviews of the new edition cast he made sure everyone talk unlike other interviews were we didn't hear woody or keith. he made sure he ask them questions to keep them apart of the interview as well

[@marleymarsss]

My man Luke took it to church real quick lol had his whole neck tucked away, all head and chest going the fuck in! Killed that shit. #BlackBoyJoy

[@kijohnson7235]

Algee, Keith, and Elijah killed it.

[@cantguard26]

Show the media that black men are very talented 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@alonzotanner1226]

Isaiah Watson definitely a great display of why we always stereotyped as automatically being musically talented just by our race my nigga. Unfortunately I can’t sing like Luke or Elijah, but I can carry a tune lol. Only sucks when peers be assuming I sing like them tho and I can’t.

[@ericadailey630]

The energy is craaaaazy ! I can feel it through my phone ! Can't wait for the movie. The type of talented young men that these youngins need to look up to !!!

[@Jay.Armani]

16:03 Yooooo! Elijah Kelly killed it😂He had me forgetting about Yazz. 17:34 Keith Powers was lit too. Love all of them!

[@theechubbyone]

I love their energy. But poor Woody only said 2 sentences, maybe next time. Love that all the 4 musicians/artists just jumped with adlibs or freestyles freely. I like Algee's vibe, I'll look him up.

[@curtissimmons2287]

Afia Griffith he prob shy

[@savagefarmert]

Afia Griffith he prob has a very laid back-lowkey vibe

[@naecrest5151]

Afia Griffith I got "shy" vibes from Keith powers .

[@cindyball6998]

Woody and Keith are usually the most quiet.

[@tymberlymichelle8848]

Black pride is so needed right now. i Love these guys energy & I am so proud of them!!#MelaninMagic #BlackBoyJoy #BlackGirlMagic #BlackExcellence

[@charleus5281]

[@ronniebobbyedition993]

Love this. In a time in which the industry is trying to kill off black music, the New Edition story is told....and then their history extends and lives thru this young crew and it shows they have definitely become inspired by black soul group love. They're talented, and I'm feeling this resurgence!!!

[@frannyokonkwo]

I am here for this! Black excellence. Black boy joy. Black girl magic.

[@Ayommari]

This interview was so much fun to watch. The "freestyles" were great and reminded me of 90s battles. Can't wait to see the New Edition movie. I was a huge fan of them in the 80s. The young guy playing Ralph Tresvant looks like he could be his son.

[@cwillis9031]

I love their energy as a group!!! There was Always do much love, support and good energy as they promoted the movie. Absolutely loved that!

[@bluebutafly]

[@MultiMadameDegrassi]

I LOOOOOVE THIS CAST!! Robbie Reed needs to be showered with awards putting them together! I just love watching them together...and Keith...woo! That smile makes my heart melt

[@michellek6362]

I am soooo in love with these men! Especially Algee! So much talent and I'm loving "Pursuing." It's a banger

[@fabriennealexander2254]

Beautiful seeing these fellas in the movie and live. I love they way Sway allowed them to show their talent and let the world know there is more to them than the characters they played in New Edition I grew up on New Edition loved them then love them now!

[@camrynchyanne]

[@user-tn6fg2du6v]

Keith powers could also be devante in a Jodeci biopic

[@BroAntonio-StraitwayGoshen]
