New Edition - If It Isn't Love | REACTION

[@MrJnx713]

New Edition could tour and not have an opening act.....between the group hits and solo hits they could hold it down

[@dmarioharris1375]

I’ve seen them in that manner exactly and be killing it🔥🔥🔥

[@glennramsey9327]

facts.

[@kingbyouchoob2488]

There is nothing like the 80s…….. best decade ever.

[@radiantlibra87]

And they still be killing the moves today, especially Ronnie🔥

[@tammieterry1386]

Truth!!!

[@LilliLamour]

Ronnie be on it!!!

[@blackberrymolasses1502]

I went to NE concert and Ronnie keeps the same stamina the whole concert and still does and he’s 52. I watched the AMAs NKOTB/NE mashup and Ronnie still killin it.

[@marymazzulli6971]

Ronnie and NE keep the rest of us 52 yr olds from DOT inspired! #GOALS #BOSTONBLESSINGS

[@mr.o2342]

New Edition is comprised of Bobby Brown, BBD ( Bel, Biv Devoe ) Johnny Gill, and Ralph Tresvant all who had solo hits.

[@BBT609]

all of them hit #1 on the charts

[@TheFeesh30]

New edition is known for their precise and clean dances thanks to the man watching them. Ronnie Devoes uncle

[@j.miller2906]

Now you see why we still love them 40 yrs later

[@christinamitchell6796]

New edition is EVERYTHING when it comes to male groups because they were ALL talented individually. Ralph has ALWAYS been my favorite his voice is unique like Michael Jackson and Michael Jackson wrote a few songs on his 1st album.

[@themajicman745]

Go check out the 70's group The Sylvers singing "Boogie Fever" on the Midnight Special.

[@TaylorMadeCori]

Suggestion? The "N.E. Heartbreak" video. Or "You're Not My Kinda Girl" both are CLASSIC.

[@mastermao8592]

New edition has to be one of the greatest groups ever their solo careers were huge as well

[@nygroover397]

This is where the formula for InSynC and BackStreet Boys, Timberlake, Beiber, TLC, SWV, Destiny's Child. They were the male proof of concept for the industry in the 80:s and 90's. Revamped the old performances and "Sanging"!!🤯 Perfected from the Menudo template. Mastered and proliferated the pop charts on both genders world wide. Singing dancing all around performing . Pop music with that "old school R&B" group flavor. They brought the Four Tops, Commodores, Temptations, Platters, etc... to Popular music genre back then and modern R&B back then.

[@coleycole5344]

Damn. Awesome synopsis.👍

[@larryjohnson54]

Yeah Ralph has the most underrated solo music career but it’s worth a drive into

[@aidenwilson6805]

Also Tony Thompson

[@roumifyouwnt2]

NE STILL tours (well pre Covid) and they STILL do ALLL the same moves *including the slide* 😉, ifact this *EXACT* routine at every concert and it NEVER GETS OLD!! 🥰 If you everrrr get the opportunity to see them GO!! Also, NE never "broke up", the took time out for solo careers, broke off to do Bell Biv Devoe, Heads of State (Ralph, Johnny & Bobby), Ralph & Johnny toured just them aswell but the ALWAYS come back together every few years and tour as ALL 6 MEMBERS playing the best joints by ALL solo & group performances. Whats even better is all 6 partake in eachothers songs. They are by far my favorite living group (if you couldn't tell lol) Other greats are 1. "Is this the end" (Includes Bobby) 2. "You're Not My Kind of Girl" (no Bobby, Includes Johnny) 3. "Candy Girl" (Includes Bobby) 4. "Jealous Girl" (Includes Bobby) 5. "Mr. Telephone Man" (includes Bobby) 6. "Hit Me Off" (all 6) 7. "Still in Love With You" (all 6) 8. "You Don't Have to Worry REMIX" Is a GREAT song, it's actually a Missy Elliott song featuring New Edition (All 6) with Bobby as lead and is DOPE!!! Then of course Bell Biv Devoe songs/videos to check out are: 1. "Poison" 2. "Do Me" 3. "When Will I See You Smile Again" (has a Can You Stand the Rain vibe but with Ricky as lead, it's dope) Bobby solo: 1. "Rock witcha" (QUIET STORM REMIX is the video one and best imo 2. "My Prerogative" 3. "Every Little Step" 4. "Roni" 5. "On Our Own/Ghostbusters II soundtrack" 6. "Don't Be Cruel" 7. "Humpin Around" 8. "Somethin in Common" (featuring Whitney Houston) Ralph solo: 1. "Sensitivity" 2. "Do What I Gotta Do" 3. "Stone Cold Gentleman" 4. "Rated R" Johnny solo: 1. "My My My" 2. "Rub You the Right Way" Lol....think I gave yall enough to satisfy ANY New Edition/Solo Playlist but honestly that's just the tip on the iceberg 🥰 enjoy fellas!!

[@MLM1011]

Don’t forget JG’s pre-NE songs “Half Crazy” and “Because of You” from his second solo album “Chemistry.”

[@marymazzulli6971]

Don't forget JG's "The Floor"

[@heyskipj]

This is a monster album. The next track you should hit is "Your Not My Kinda Girl." It's conceptually the finish to this video at a "live" performance. A+ energy and song.

[@mostmost1]

One of the best routines ever.

[@crystalriley9671]

This is a must read! Back in the Day, I attended an New Edition_ LL Cool J concert. While NE was preforming some dude jumps on stages grabs one of the mics and starts rapping. Security jumps on stage, drags the man off and put the mic back on. THE ENTIRE TIME THEY KEPT PERFORMING!! And did not miss a STEP, BEAT, NOTE. PROFESSIONALS!...... Back then, folks had real talent! Their voices were just like the songs because there wasnt any auto tune.. ...........NE is the Modern day Boy band Blueprint!

[@cyntee79]

My ABSOLUTE favorite group EVER! Saw them for the first time when I was 9 on the Heartbreak tour and they STILL put on the most amazing shows. I’d recommend the entire N.E. Heartbreak album but the New Edition movie gives a lot of insight into group history as well.

[@craigblakes5499]

Ralph has some hits on his own too.. Sensitivity and Do What I Gotta Do are two of his biggest songs..Johnny has some hits solo wise too...Then of course Bobby is the King of R&B...Mike Ron and Ricky formed together and became Bell Biv Devoe...gotta check out their song Poison..it changed the game..all six of them are legends

[@oscarjimenez4806]

All mine is a new hit very nice

[@MsMelyjean]

"Money Can't Buy You Love" is fav Ralph Tresvant song for me.

[@stephenjohnson8426]

If you guys are still wondering about the guy walking around and watching them, that's Mr. Brooke Payne (the 7th member). He's N.E's choreographer and manager and also the uncle to N.E/BBD/RBRM member Ronnie Devoe.

[@whatseatontim918]

I was three when this came out; one of my favorite songs

[@JamilaGomez82]

The best to ever do it. You guys need to watch The New Edition Story. It's a 3-part biopic about them. Their childhoods, how they got started, all the drama, solo careers...everything. It's really well done.

[@Reagan98]

the song was produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis , actually the whole album.

[@craigblakes5499]

Lol this my song... I do this at karaoke every single time..the dance and all...I was nine when this came out, and been rocking it every since.. the guy walking around is their manager Brook Payne..he is also Ron Devoe's uncle.. Ron is the one in the sweater... This is a classic Jam and Lewis production... These guys are legends

[@macalcord]

Man I wish you could have seen them live on stage in their prime.

[@robinkcason]

Best group ever!!! Hands down👍🏽🎉🎉🎉

[@heatherturner6955]

Everything about this song and their talent... So great!!!!!!

[@GooniesNeverSayDie1980]

Johnny Gill, an already successful solo artist, was brought in when Bobby Brown left NE to go solo....

[@Tessiefaye]

Bobby didn't leave he was kicked out of N.E. for drug use, missing or being late for concerts and missing practice.

[@bigb2494]

Bobby was kicked out in '85 and started his solo career in '86. Johny was brought in initially in '87 to replace Ralph, because the group was in turmoil and they were worried Ralp would go solo. Ralph however was the most committed and loyal member of the group and always put everyone else and the group first

[@stephenjohnson8426]

No, Johnny was being brought in because of Ralph not Bobby. Bobby was kicked out and doing his solo project, so, Ronnie, Ricky, and Mike thought Ralph was gonna leave and go solo also. Keep in mind this was happening long before BBD was even a consideration.

[@seemassive6024]

Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis were/are SUPER producers! Their sound can't be imitated - EXTREMELY distinct. Check out the song "Human" by Human League...Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis produced that mega-hit for them back in 1986

[@IceManLikeGervin]

You're Not My Kind Of Girl is the second part to this music video/song...y'all should check it out one day. Request: Janet Jackson- The Pleasure Principle. Peace

[@indianamom6081]

They continued after Bobby left, he was replaced with Johnny Gill. And when they split they became Bell Biv DeVoe, and the others (Johnny, Bobby, and Ralph) all had solo careers. So much talent in one group. I was a teenager in the 80s and they were one of my favorites. I also was heavy into Duran Duran and a lot of hair/glam bands.

[@MightMouse2174]

Ralph went solo last he was too loyal to a fault...

[@denisemorant1109]

[@RTDavis0503]

Or react to Troop "I'm not Souped" Live On Arsenio Hall. Choreography and being able to sing and dance at the same time will BLOW YOUR MIND. They were New Editions competition

[@michaelbaylor2923]

the next one you need to see is "You're not my kind of girl", if you haven't already

[@maryf2673]

Correct me if I’m wrong but MTV did not play a lot of black videos in the 80’s. Michael Jackson was the first they started playing on MTV that is why you would see the videos late at night starting out

[@kennethcelorio4937]

Best decade ever!

[@hendrix-giovannijohnson9701]

New edition is that good...you should react to their live show on bet....where they got a lifetime achievement award

[@seawomancreativemedia8117]

The talent is undeniable. One of the best groups ever - NE reigns! Ralph, Bobby, Bel Biv Devoe and don't forget Johnny Gill - all sucessful on their own AND influenced more greats like Usher (Bobby) and Boys II Men (Mike Bivens).

[@kennyjones6369]

You guys realize this was BEFORE “The Carlton Dance” right. I believe NE Heartbreak came out in 89! They were all over the radio and this was a comeback for New Edition, Bobby Brown went MEGA Star with “Don’t be Cruel” album and this was the first song from the album but shit didn’t get real until “can you stand the rain” w/ new lead vocalist Johnny Gill listen to thst song)

[@worldwidebirthdaycelebrations]

One of you said it! "A well-oiled machine! back in the day, this was what set groups apart! Moves, Outfits, Music! Whoever had the best of those at that moment, won the awards, fan admiration, and hopefully the right amount of money!

[@KJ-sq5ut]

This song is Legendary...best come back song for a group of all time!!!😉

[@davidhoward6254]

Sorry, Can You Stand the Rain is their best song, hands down. This is a great song but...man, Jam & Lewis killed that song! By the way, the end of If It Isn't Love leads directly into "You're Not My Kind of Girl". You have GOT to listen to this whole album, and then go listen to the "Hearsay" album by Alexander O'Neal. Get the album versions of "Criticize" and "Sunshine", but make sure to listen to it from start to finish...It plays out like a house party, lots of energy at the beginning and then slow-jam-pair-off toward the end. In my opinion the 2nd best album produced by Jam & Lewis...great 80's bangers and Quiet Storm material.

[@troyvontdavis5167]

The guy walking was their manager early in their career, and choreographer at the time of this video, Brooke Payne.

[@christarpley6861]

Its my favorite New Edition song. Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis killed that production. And the video just enhances it. Ralph Tresvant dropped a great solo LP a couple years after this one btw. Sensitivity is a track you need to check out if you haven't already.

Oh and that's Jamie Foxx playing their manager in the video, lol

[@ecshredder]

Another great video. You guys are awesome!

[@glennramsey9327]

Bobby Brown, Johnny Gill, Ralph Tresvant all have solo careers. Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, and Ronnie Devoe Jr., all make up the legendary group Bell Biv Devoe (BBD). They never broke up. Went on hiatus at different times due to conflict, or doing their own projects outside of the group, but always came back together. They just finished the first leg of a Residency in Las Vegas. They're also celebrating their 40th anniversary in the business.

[@MightMouse2174]

[@wellutube2u272]

The NE Heartbreak album was New Edition's attempt at a more adult sound so they could break away from the teenie bopper bubble gum boy band pop they were known for at the time. Thr song writing and production was done by super producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis who came up with Prince in Minneapolis. They also produced Janet Jackson's Control album.

[@seawomancreativemedia8117]

And the sweet season of New Jack Swing.

[@MsConstrue]

That's what makes New Edition the best boy band of all time... not just the lead singer went on to have a successful solo career.

Greatest song and video by new edition in my opinion 👍🏽

[@SrealG]

The "Man" watching over them, is Brooke Payne..Their choreographer from DAY 1 (And their manager earlier in their career)...he was fired (by the grouo members parents during their first album Candy Girl in 1983)..MCA bought him back as strictly the choreographer in 1985, and he's been with them till this day, every move to every NE song was taught by him and him alone. Facts💯

The first seven years of MTV (1980-87) were fantastic. It was music all the time, interviews with artists, backstage behind the scenes activity, artists playing their favorite songs as guest VJs, then shows like Remote Control and The Real World started dominating air time. But the early MTV was a legend before its time, you routinely saw the Police, Billy Idol, Madonna, Wham, Van Halen, and just about every music group looking to be seen on the channel. Unfortunately, the early producers of MTV content weren't keen on promoting a lot of black artists. Of course Michael Jackson and Prince were mainstays, but many others couldn't get their videos played on MTV. So along came BET, which not only played all of the black artists, but Michael and Prince as well. Early BET was fire and MTV took notice, realizing the audience they could have had in the early years if they were more open in their music catalog.

[@TheVoyeurtaz]

Your whitewashed, revisionist history is mistaken. When MTV first came on the air, their publicity line stated that they would not play any black artist. It continued, we are a rock channel for rock music. And for three years all you saw were white artists, white hosts, etc. Then "Billie Jean" came out and they wanted to air the video. Michael said, "No, you don't want to play black artists so you can't play me (reminding them that he is black). He forced them to air black artists in order to let them play Billie Jean.
