Eban Brown , Thank You from the bottom of my heart for sharing your God Given Voice with us. You might have successfully replaced Russel , but NO ONE will ever be able to replace you. God Bless.
What legacy did he leave? He never recorded or wrote a top hit...he spent 18 years imitating and singing songs another man recorded and sang lead on. That's a cover singer. No legacy.
Very good NOT the original Stylistics! And you know it , Ebon Brown is phenomenal he replaced ORIGINAL lead singer Russell Tomkins jr is the Original. The group is outrageously great even without the lead .
A few days before the concert, The Stylistics gave me their song list for this show. I noticed some songs that were made popular in the Philippines, were not included. I asked if they include these songs, I didn't realized that they haven't played this for a while and needed to rehearsed and run it before starting the show, thus making the delay in letting people enter the venue. But it was all worth it.
Eban and Jason not originals. Only Airion and Herb the talker were originals. Who did not even sing on first 3 albums or 12 of first 14 top straight hits. RUssell Thompkins jr sang lead on every song for 30 plus years and he asked Thom Bell/ Linda Creed to let Airion sing duo lead on 2 songs. " you make me feel brand new" and You are everything".... those are the facts ...look it up on google. Wikipedia's and tons of interviews.
God didn't call him to be Russell as he never called you to be Trump!!! He is Eban and that's all he is to be. No other voice I have heard sounds this close to Russell Thompkins but Eban Brown. Their tones are uncanny and hard to distinguish and I am a music producer, musician and singer myself. Very familiar with the Stylistic's sound....
I agree with you Terry! Even though you wrote this comment about two years ago, I've been listening, buying and dancing to the original Stylistics since about 1974 with the original lead singer Mr. Russell Thompkins! There's no comparison Mr. Russell Thompkins is the voice that doesn't come that often in a lifetime. In my opinion one of the best falsetto voices ever! This other person singing lead with the Stylistics has a good falsetto voice too, but in my opinion Mr. Russell Thompkins has a much better voice, I just heard him this past week on You Tube and he still sounds just as good and the same since the 1970's! Especially nowdays when most singers and bands come and go so quickly, and most of them have short careers! Listen to the New Stylistics with Mr. Russell Thompkins singing the lead and still performing after so many years! God bless and peace, Frank. ❤️
@Lamont Wilson I personally don't care if you have a bowel movement,Lamont Sanford(OH EXCUSE ME) Wilson!!! Your statement will only be your opinion and not an edict of fact to be enshrined in the Smithsonian!!!! Some people like Russell and some people like Eban of which you or me cannot change!!! Now roll with that Mr.Imaginary Music Wannabee critic.....
@Lamont Wilson Your Mama invented gay ok! I am a well known minister with more intelligence in my mismatched socks than what you'll ever have at any SAT test you take! Remember that!!! My masculinity makes every male in your family look like Bambi at a leotard race! Remember that too...
Russell Thompkins JR’s voice is different gravy. You cannot emulate it and he sounds exactly the same now. This guy sounds like Miss Piggy when he sings. This band is a tribute act
John Hawkins......That's right he cant touch Eban....because Russell is so far ahead of him...Russell has 55 years singing his own songs. Eban imitating Russell. Think he got tired of being an imitator & found singing someone else's songs a dead end going nowhere for him.... It's time for Eban to sprout his own wings. Sing his own style, write his songs. play his guitar and be his own record star. Let Russell sing his own songs that were written FOR him and recorded BY him...and won gold silver. Platinum and double platinum awards and sold over 55 million songs of HIS.
That's just painfully hard on my ears to hear that clone singing lead and that sometimes off key background, No Russell and No Arion equals no Stylistic. Those dudes should never, I repeat ever never sing those songs in life. Glory be that sucked. Just when I thought it could not worse they jacked up Peek a Boo too dang
@@melvinpruitt3907 re read my post...I said the other 4 never sang a note recording the first 3 albums or 0n the first 12 hits ...except Arion sang duo lead on 2 of the 12. I think I stated it like that. Read the comment by Kenneth Thompson.. He was there he knows what are facts....as does Wikilinks and Google history. I hope that cleared it up for you.
You are sosososo phenomenal
The MASTERS of the sweet song!!! The untouchable Stylistics....
Although, not the original lead singer, one of the best act out there today.
You are a class act
You are sosososo untouchable
Eban Brown , Thank You from the bottom of my heart for sharing your God Given Voice with us. You might have successfully replaced Russel , but NO ONE will ever be able to replace you. God Bless.
Check mate😎
Just a soundalike. Russell Thompkins Junior is the voice of the Stylistics on all the records.
Eban, during his time left a very impressive legacy as their vocalist.
What legacy did he leave? He never recorded or wrote a top hit...he spent 18 years imitating and singing songs another man recorded and sang lead on. That's a cover singer. No legacy.
You are sosossoo talented
EBAN BROWN,THERE IS NO COMPARISON,YOUR BEAUTIFUL VOICE IS A GIFT FROM GOD.
He can't touch Russell Thompkins Jr.....decent voice...however he's no Russell Thompkins Jr!!
Love Eban Brown is the best
Eban could imitate other people's voices, like many of us can. He just sound better doing it. 😂😂
You are the greatest
I love your style
You are superb
Very good NOT the original Stylistics! And you know it , Ebon Brown is phenomenal he replaced ORIGINAL lead singer
Russell Tomkins jr is the Original.
The group is outrageously great even without the lead .
This is a master piece
You are the man
My name is Windson -- Brazil!!!😀👍👏👏👏👏

Thanks for sharing, but actually there are only two original Stylistics in this group. Great harmony, great band, great show.

John Lennin Mk Mk Mk Mk mi mi pm pm
Eban fits perfectly in this group. He's the best replacement!!!
He left the Stylistics as well.
This could never be ORIGINAL if it doesn't include Russell Tomkins Jr.
But I do admit, beautiful voice.
I have never Russel in person, I have only seen Eban brown. Eban is the man
😀👍👏👏 Fantástic!!!!
Beautiful
EBAN,YOU ARE IN A CLASS OF YOUR OWN,YOU ARE A GREAT SINGER AND A WONDERFUL PERSONALITY.GOD BLESS YOU .
Eban Brown is very talented he should be on his own and not carrying these guys
Eban Brown is not in any class of his own, except an understudy of Mr. Russell Thompkins , Jr.
Russell Thompkins Jr....
is The Stylistics ,
Not The Original Stylistics without Russell Thompkins Jr......PERIOD!!!!!
You go

That's right 👍
I feel you
This is not the original Stylistics without Russell Thomkins Jr.
X1000
This is not the Original Stylistics, it's some of them but not the lead singer!
How they can be called the Original Stylistics when Russell is not a part of them?
Thank you....Say it louder....so that the people in the back can hear!!
No BS.There is no way they can pass this off as the original Stylistics when Russell Tompkins Jr Herb Murrell and Airrion Love are not part of it!
He sounds nice but he's not Russell. Russell was and is the voice of the Stylistics. And there are just 2 of the originals there.
God didn't call him to be Russell as he never called you to be Trump!!! He is Eban and that's all he is to be. No other voice I have heard sounds this close to Russell Thompkins but Eban Brown.

@lu ce Huh? Doc your point is incoherent and tons of words misspelled!! I know not how to respond back! Again I say huh?
My guys , still sounding superb as ever. Keep going gentlemen , you truly got this. Love You.
Not all of the original Stylistics! And of course the lead falsetto RTJ is missing!
The two Stylistics are very good.
Classics, and y'all look good, Real Men.
Not the original Stylistics??
we need some dancers
Russell Thompkins, Jr. is the original. Eban Brown is just a copy.
FACTS!! I AGREE WITH YOU 100%
But Eban sings close to Russell and does a super job. Better than you and me I am sure!!!!
@@kelvinhall1698 But even Eban has left.
@@valeriewhite3542 Yes I heard Eban left too. They're losing some great singers.
@@kelvinhall1698 INDEED!
Russell Thompkins JR’s voice is different gravy. You cannot emulate it and he sounds exactly the same now. This guy sounds like Miss Piggy when he sings. This band is a tribute act
This can't be called the original Stylistics when Russell and the other guy is not in it.
Truth.....My sentiments exactly.
Peek a boo
Not the original Stylistics only two are
Eban is a fantastic imitator and duplicator but not the originated of any hit songs
A good copy but not the real thing! You couldn't touch a young Russell TompkinsJr!
ORIGINAL huh lies
What the heck happened to Russell Tompkins............this ain't The Stylistics
Can't be said original. Russell Thompkins and the other guy is not with this group. C'mon now.
Russel can’t touch EBAN, plus EBAN can dance.
Lead singers aren't suppose to dance...they sing! That's why they have dancers. You look back at groups .....
@@nancywood9531 INDEED!
John Hawkins......That's right he cant touch Eban....because Russell is so far ahead of him...Russell has 55 years singing his own songs. Eban imitating Russell.

Exactly
What! Russell can't touch Eban? Eban is merely just imitating Russell Tompkins, Jr. That's BS.
We can make it happen - he was off key. Not even close to the original members.
Elvis live
That's just painfully hard on my ears to hear that clone singing lead and that sometimes off key background, No Russell and No Arion equals no Stylistic. Those dudes should never, I repeat ever never sing those songs in life. Glory be that sucked. Just when I thought it could not worse they jacked up Peek a Boo too dang
Actuly Airrian Love and Herb Murrell "Two Originals" are in this clip and the group still tours and sounds awesome.
My reply to you would be I BET YOU CAN'T HOLD A NOTE IN A PAYLESS SHOE BOX!!!! These guys sound great....
Arrion was right there and has been for the past 40plus years. Duh?
@@nancywood9531 singing duo lead as you call it is not singing a note .I'm confused 🤔and those background singers.I know exactly who they were.
@@melvinpruitt3907 re read my post...I said the other 4 never sang a note recording the first 3 albums or 0n the first 12 hits ...except Arion sang duo lead on 2 of the 12.
