[@gaiauniversity5882]

They had three leads at the time. There's always a blessing and a curse to having so much talent in one group. The blessing is the diversity in songs and artistic expression, not to mention the ladies who choose their favorites. Friendly Competition is good, but competitive resentment, and jealousy can ruin a group because no one wants to be The public announcement for R.Kelly. The good thing is they grew up together and are like family, unlike let's say An Envogue who couldn't get past their differences.

What's amazing is that when I bought my tickets to the New Edition concerts the tickets were $15.00 and they were killing it. Outperforming Kool and the Gang, Force M.D's, and Cherelle with Alexander O'Neal. Yeah, that was on the same show and they were all over the stage. Bobby Brown was acting out, jumping on top of the loudspeakers on the side of the stage. It was a show for real. In Chicago, at the U.I.C. Pavillion, it was a train ride for 20 minutes and memories that I fondly keep til this day. Just didn't know that when I rode the train back home to the westside of Chicago that my home was more peaceful than the projects that the group returned to. They were horribly taken advantage of.

Brooke is the definition of a Stand Up Guy and OG/Mentor. These Black mothers fired the Black Man father figure and brought in a white guy with zero experience with R &B Groups like he was the only Manager available. I love how Mike Became a Businessman!

[@Darknezz365]

Yu are right but Brooke couldn't handle the business aspect of things. From the moms perspective the kids were being used and they were really working hard. The white guy was a means to the boys actually seeing the fruits of their work

[@DualityUnlimited]

@@Darknezz365 He didn’t even really do that well. If the President of the label hadn’t been convinced and had the team in place it wouldn’t have worked out. Brooke never wanted to be the Manager and gladly would have accepted his natural role as Choreographer and Advisor. They never found an actual Manager because of the grueling tour schedule and explosion of their success. They should have and could have found a Manager who would be a better fit for the group and utilized Brooke. There wasn’t any experience nor wisdom amongst the Mothers.

The whole effort to bring this together is appreciated. This is a staple and for the actors to be able to experience living legends and learn what they went through & did for our culture to tribute New Edition's success singing and dancing all of their classic hits is legendary.
