No lo key about it. He wrote way more than he song on here. Most of tony braxton, boyz 2 men, jon b, bobby brown and every artist male and female during the 90's had at least one hit from him. And he wasn't a bad artist himself.
Queen! He OWNED the 90s! I didn't know he'd written some of those songs, like "Slow Jam" and "Rock Steady" too! But basically he started bodying the 80s and straight plowed through the 90s! Blessings on Blessings from Vegas 💜
Yeah he needs a Versus all by himself and they need to honor him on Soul Train like many other great singers I love this man to life.......he is a MUSICAL GENIUS AND BEAST.......I WISH I WAS THERE BECAUSE I CAN RELATE TO EACH AND ERRRRRRRRRR SONG BABYYEEEEEEEE THIS MAN RIGHT IS A DEEP THINKER And LEGENDARY WRITER AND PERFORMER.
Yesss he was. and will always be 80's up to Now , I Love all his music even all the musicians he wrote and discovered like Tonie B. I love the duets with BABY FACE
Bumped into him once at a theater in Pasadena. I said, “Love your music” and he said “Thank you.” Don’t care what anybody says, I had a conversation with Babyface!
Babyface invented and created so many sounds for musicians over the past 30 years. He is also a talented musician, performer and singer. The best this generation will ever have and experience.
Midnight Star - "Slow Jam" (1983) The Whispers - "Rock Steady" (1987) The Boys - "Dial My Heart" (1988) Johnny Gill - "Fairweather Friend" (1990) After 7 - "Can't Stop" (1990) Johnny Gill - "There U Go" (1992) Dru Hill - "We're Not Making Love No More" (1997) Dru Hill - "These Are the Times" (1998) The Deele - "Two Occasions" (1987) Bobby Brown - "Don't Be Cruel" (1988) Bobby Brown - "Every Little Step" (1988) Bobby Brown - "Rock Wit'cha" (1988) Bobby Brown - "Roni" (1988) Tevin Campbell - "Can We Talk" (1993) After 7 - "Ready or Not" (1989) Johnny Gill - "My, My, My" (1990) Boyz II Men - "I'll Make Love to You" (1994) Boyz II Men - "End of the Road" (1992)

This man has blessed us with song writing skills that this generation will never duplicate or appreciate. I grew up with his hits and I feel fortunate to have witnessed his pure genius.
I bet you didn't know that JG got that song by accident. It was written for After 7, but because Melvin didn't show up to the studio, likely dealing with his habit, unfortunately, the song was serendipitously passed to Johnny and the rest is history. Babyface also came up with the group name After 7, because of his answering machine. Lol! He is definitely the GOAT though. Hands down!!
Fosho!!!! Looking back Him and his X-wife went through something.......Love will do this to a true **Man** They have content, meaning, Purpose, and most of All.... He was in "LOVE" Top of her Hair to the bottom of her feet.....Mind..body..soul
Smokey and Babyface are two of music history's most prolific "lovesong" writers of all time and, you can't just forget SMOKEY cause, we are not going to let you forget him!
I am still amazed at how he made it around the arena. Most these youngsters couldnt even make it up the first flight. Amazing. Love you Babyface! Truly a GOAT.....
Only a handful of artist can do an entire 30 minute session of hits that they wrote & it’s all hits🔥Babyface, Keith Sweat, R Kelly just to name a few. Blessings to one of the most overlooked Kings of R&B💯
Babyface is a musical genius. For a 61 yr old he looks damn good. I've been listening to him for years and I love all his songs. He's right up there with Luther Vandross, Michael Jackson, Prince, Whitney. The absolute best. 💞💞💞 ...... I have to say he's has good chemistry with Toni Braxton.
He is one of the absolute best composer/producer/performers I’ve had the privilege to grow up with. My teenage and young adult years were during the 80’s and 90’s and the music is still relevant today. These are just the highlights of the ones he wrote for men. What a musical genius!
Babyfaces song writing ability, melody and lyric combinations will go down in history as the greatest R&B songwriter of all time. How fulfilling it must feel to have all that creativity with your name on it, this you invented out of your imagination. I take my hat off to a great man.
i think he is the greatest songwriter of all time, period.his catalogue of gold and platinum songs is unrivalled.not even stevie wonder, paul mccartney, john lennon, bob dylan, smokey robinson or r kelly have written this many hits for a variety of artists
Didn't know he had written all these #1s for all of these artists, Babyface is Black Excellence Thank you for the great memories growing up in the 80s👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
True. Especially when you factor in the fact that, some of the people you grew up with and enjoyed some of this music with are now dead. It brings back sweet/sad memories.🥲🥲🥲
Mr. Edmonds you saved a lot of careers in the 90's, equally you introduced us to new musical groups and artist that are very well known to date. What talent. What amazing talent you are 💯%blessed with. When music was music 🎶. You are in the music history books for sure. 👏🏼 July 3rd, 2021.
Did I really just see him run up all those steps through the arena then jog walk all the way around it after dancing and singing through a entire concert. We are the same age......Babyface is a superhuman!
Running through the aisles is something he seems to do at all of his live concerts while on the road. Why I'm not sure but probably to give his audience a personal feel so as to say that he is still connected to his audience.
I saw him in concert and when he ran through the crowds and up the steps, security couldn't even keep up with him. And he never missed a beat. Phenomenal
@@jennismith6144 I betcha he eats a clean diet (probably meat & dairy free diet) with regular exercise, resistance weights & cardio. [Idk, but I'd Betcha 💰 on that tho].
I stopped cooking to enjoy this concert!! I wanna thank whoever held that camera steady, didn’t talk the entire recording and managed to get some excellent footage❤️I feel like I owe you a few coins😍
"PLANDEMIC", if this was an actual pandemic you wouldn't be enjoying or doing any of this. You'd be scared shitless. Wake The Fuq Up & stop getting sacrificed.
"For God so loved the world and saw that the world needed more love stories and happy moments, and he sent his grandchild Babyface"... From the book of Soul Imaginations verse 1980's-2020's.
I know Babyface is talented and wrote many songs for other artists but this is beyond comprehension! Hits on top of hits! Truly amazing. This doesn’t include all the hits that he wrote for his self! So happy I have all of his CDs. If they aren’t priceless yet, they soon will be! 😊👏🏾💗
He actually did BG vocals on some of these too. He’s that good! Writes, produces, plays the instruments, sings. Very talented indeed. If you’re fond of reading the credits on the albums (I am 😂) you’ll see Kenny B. Edmonds repeatedly ❤️
Wow! 62 and all that dancing and singing. To top it all off he ran around that whole audience 😳 Babyface is a true legend giving it all he has and some.
Babyface is EVERYTHING in concert. I saw him with Boys to Men and when he goes through the songs HE WROTE and SINGS them. He leaves your jaw on the floor. Killing it in his 60s.
I HAVE ALWAYS GONE TO HIS CONCERT.BUT THIS PARTICULAR CONCERT HE SUNG ALL THE SONG HE HAD WRITTEN FOR THESE ARTIST AND IT WAS UNBELIEVABLE TO ME TO KNOW HE DID THAT.
👍Those backup singers/performers & musicians are terrific, especially that one guy. I love that he lets the stand out vocally on a few songs. He seems so humble. 💝
OMG...Babyface Still hitting it hard at over 60!! This man is amazing 👏. I would give anything to see him perform live. What a treat!! No rap no profanity pure Love and classy as they come. His stuff is classy tasteful. Respect 🙌 for love and women. This is what the world is missing Guys!!
BabyFace performed here in St. Petersburg, Florida a few years back. I was working the event and he was SANGING so well, I forgot I was on the clock. I rocked and sang the entire time. He took his shirt off and ran through the venue, I lost my mind like a love struck teenager. #teambabyface. Like @ J.R. Williams said please go see him in concert, BabyFace does not disappoint.
Someone wrote that it's amazing he, Mr. Kenneth, "Baby Face" Edmonds wrote so many successful songs. Folks must realize when one is operating in one's gift, one is able to fulfill one's promise and share one's gifts and talents with others because the blessings have been bestowed upon one by God. Peace❤🤗😷🕊
This was everything that any and every woman could ever want or ever need. Oh yes he was sick He just didn't know it. We all found later. He had Covid 19. But he still put it down!!! He is THE G. O. A. T. No joke baby. Thank you Mr. Kenny Babyface Edmonds. This is hot and so are you. Great job.
The absolute driving force behind alot of great artist, he made them all look awesome, only God gives talent like this, the only one to ever live a perfect life, gave one man named Babyface a true gift for mankind to enjoy, just perfection.
Mj can't play no instruments, has people play for him, can't use pro tools, is no producer. If you told him to play Billie Jean, bad, or any other song he sang on a piano there and then, he couldn't do it, that's no musican. Just a song and dance man. Can't compare him to people with true musical skills.
God has granted my dear brother Kenny longevity and grace. May the Lord God Almighty keep strengthening him lavishly in every area of his precious life. Way to go Face way to go👍🏼
Now knowing he wrote the songs don’t you see he could of sung them all!!!!! This man is low key the king of R&B
He really is. I had no idea he wrote ALL that!!
Exactly he is just humble and low key
Yes I had no idea either I just know I love these songs and always thought baby face was a fine man still is I love his music
WYS🙏🏽👏🏼🙏🏽👏🏼!
No lo key about it. He wrote way more than he song on here. Most of tony braxton, boyz 2 men, jon b, bobby brown and every artist male and female during the 90's had at least one hit from him. And he wasn't a bad artist himself.
I knew Babyface was a huge part of the 90s but i didn't realize he was the WHOLE 90s ❤🤩
so many songs from then
The whole damn! Lol
Queen! He OWNED the 90s! I didn't know he'd written some of those songs, like "Slow Jam" and "Rock Steady" too! But basically he started bodying the 80s and straight plowed through the 90s! Blessings on Blessings from Vegas 💜
😂😂😂😂 right.
😂
Babyface's catalog is ridiculous.......
Hell Yeah!!!!!
... and so is he.
Ridiculous is you, pure envy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah he needs a Versus all by himself and they need to honor him on Soul Train like many other great singers I love this man to life.......he is a MUSICAL GENIUS AND BEAST.......I WISH I WAS THERE BECAUSE I CAN RELATE TO EACH AND ERRRRRRRRRR SONG BABYYEEEEEEEE THIS MAN RIGHT IS A DEEP THINKER And LEGENDARY WRITER AND PERFORMER.
REEEEEEDICULUS!! I have so much respect for his pen game. Still. I seriously believe that no one could have done a verzuz against him except Teddy...
Every song he sung was a hit He’s the G.O.A.T
THE GREATEST OF ALL TIMES 👌👌👌👌👌❤❤❤
Facts!
Theres about 100 more hits he didn't sing lol
💯💯❤️
Every one of them!!! That is AMAZING!!!
This dude wrote the soundtrack to 80’s, 90’s and 2000’s R&B… Hands down. He’s straight up R&B Legend
Agreed
Yesss he was. and will always be 80's up to Now , I Love all his music even all the musicians he wrote and discovered like Tonie B. I love the duets with BABY FACE
🥂🍾 Fu Sho 📝 👩🏾⚖️
He's the best!!!
Straight up!
Bumped into him once at a theater in Pasadena. I said, “Love your music” and he said “Thank you.” Don’t care what anybody says, I had a conversation with Babyface!
😆
You sure did!!!
😂😂😂😂u can even go ahead and say you were friends
Lol right 😂😂😂😂
Yes you HAVE!!! Lol
Basically, there is no modern R&B without Babyface. This man’s talent is insane.
@Mike Gillispie. YES TOTALLY AGREE! EVEN WHEN HE WAS WITH THE DEAL. " I ONLY THINK OF YOU ON TWO OCCASIONS "
He basically wrote EVERYTHING
Right! Lol
Very brilliant guy and cool headed too!!! No drugs attached!!!
Babyface invented and created so many sounds for musicians over the past 30 years. He is also a talented musician, performer and singer. The best this generation will ever have and experience.
The legend he single handily revolutionized RNB

Haters!🧐! How could you not Love Babyface ❤❤❤
Shit brains you call them, music is fucked now from R n B to hip hop
👏💯
No matter if they don’t his
long $$$ says thumbs up!
Babyface will forever reign supreme. Hands down the best songwriter in the world 👐🏾👐🏾💚💚💚🎤🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
R. Kelly. That is all.
Prince Rogers Nelson 🤴🏾. The Artist Who Always Be A Prince To Me 💜.
Yes
Period!!
How could Y'ALL forget "SMOKEY"..."BABYFACE" is baad...sure nuff BUT...he has plenty company!
He left out a ton! The best R&B writer in the entire R&B history! There is nothing worthy of the classification today. This is the KING of R&B!
I agree ..I got R Kelly behind Babyface
Smokey Robinson was the pioneer of R&B songwriting...then Stevie Wonder, Prince and Babyface...
Yeah this barely scratched the surface of what he's done. These are just the songs he wrote for other artists. He didn't even sing his own hits.
Didn’t know he wrote “slow jam”!!! WOW!!!!
The MF’in King. I love Babyface!!!!
What the heck? Im tripping. Baby Face is bomb. That Latino brother was blowing. I love this!
Yep thats Stefano from American Idol. Loved him his season.
Girl yes he was lolo!! Wit his fine self!!
I was trying to figure out why he looked familiar
@@jellygurl27 i knew it was Stefano the voice is very distinct and powerful forever fan of this guy. go brother... you are a gifted ma brotha.
I have been a fan since his days with the "Deele"
How about when he was the guitarist for Manchild? Circa 1977 ; then he was Kenneth Edmonds
Omg, that I didn't know. Thanks for the info!
I have been fan a of Deele since day 1
Yes
And Bootsey Collins discovered him & gave him the name Babyface!! This man wrote all the songs we love, from the late 80's to now!!! Amazing man!!!! 👍
Babyface is untouchable
Baby face can't touch Prince!
Facts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@rosalindwilliams9358 Pounce
Prince has him beat though. So does Stevie Wonder.
@@reespace Prince does not have Babyface beat on the writing and production. Babyface is deeper.
This man has blessed us with song writing skills that this generation will never duplicate or appreciate. I grew up with his hits and I feel fortunate to have witnessed his pure genius.
Indeed!!!
he's the whole package.....truly clubbing days when things we smoothe and hella fun...it was all about the music for sure, that era, that place.
That Latino can sing good grief I wanna know his name WHEEEEEW
My my my my my my my you sure look good tonight
You better blow that voice
Not all did he write "My My My" he found the perfect person to sing it. Genius
The Whispers and another heavyweight, passed on MyMyMy.
I bet you didn't know that JG got that song by accident. It was written for After 7, but because Melvin didn't show up to the studio, likely dealing with his habit, unfortunately, the song was serendipitously passed to Johnny and the rest is history. Babyface also came up with the group name After 7, because of his answering machine. Lol! He is definitely the GOAT though. Hands down!!
Truly amazing!!
@optionblogger
U TRULY said a MOUTHFUL right there 💯! N'THN could b MORE close 2 the TRUTH 💯.
@@ADay-kh8px
WOW! SERIOUSLY 🤔💭???
I NEVER knew that Melvin had an addiction 🤷🏼♀️! He was still a master at the vocal gift he possessed 🗣️🎙️🎶!!!
This is an extremely talented man! Wrote some lifetime hits, and can sing them! Helped so many other artists. This type of talent is rare.
Sheesh he wrote my entire Playlist!😂 I will forever love BABYFACE!
😅😅😅😅right Im like what didnt he write...lol
I didn’t know he wrote “we’re not making love no more” and “these are the times “. Straight Legend!!!
No kiddin...!! He surpass Prince and Lionel Richie.
Yes. I believe that entire waiting to exhale soundtrack 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yes! Those were the 2 songs that I had no idea he wrote and I go hard for Dru Hill. SUPER FAN!!!
The whole soul fool soundtrack too I think.
STRAIGHT GENIUS HE HIS
This dude breathes out new songs in his sleep
😅
Yes indeed!
Fosho!!!!
Looking back
Him and his X-wife went through something.......Love will do this to a true **Man**
They have content, meaning, Purpose, and most of All....
He was in "LOVE"
Top of her Hair to the bottom of her feet.....Mind..body..soul
Yesssssss!!
Babyface is a R&B Giant & nearly single handedly spread love, happiness & babies!😍
He's the Burt Bacharach, David Foster, of R&B. Kudos to this brilliant songwriter.
Very well said
Babyface is incredibly talented. He meshes so well together with Toni Braxton and knows how to get the best out of an artist.
YES SO TRUE!!!!
So proud to be Black!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love my culture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Big facts
TRUTH!!!
I love you my sisters🥀
Me too I love bieng black
After you hear them, you can definitely hear his style, but it's like he tailored each song for the artist who sang it.
And he always left his signature by singing background vocals.
Yessss. Even with the female vocalist. He wrote Whitney's entire "I'm your baby tonight".
Yes so true
Back in the day, you could identify a Face song by the keyboards, and definitely by the chorus, even if you never heard the doing before.
Smokey and Babyface are two of music history's most prolific "lovesong" writers of all time and, you can't just forget SMOKEY cause, we are not going to let you forget him!
True! Two of the greatest songwriters
So, true, and seeing Mr. Smokey Robinson perform live is a real pleasure. Both of these artists have silky voices and can really croon.😷
Let’s not forget Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye and Ashford and Simpson. That’s The “Mount Rushmore” of Our Lives right there !!
Smokey wrote Motown
@@JerrlEvans Just add him to the statement "Naim Williams" made before yours, He's part of that Mt.Rushmore!
I LoVe how he let's his background singers shine. 💖
He's fire af 🔥 🔥 🔥
I am still amazed at how he made it around the arena. Most these youngsters couldnt even make it up the first flight. Amazing. Love you Babyface! Truly a GOAT.....
Facts!!👏🏾👏🏾
His back singers are SUPER TALENT!!
Hi Asia
The name of BackGround Singers are Stefano Langone from American Idol Season 11! Oskar Rodriguez , Andre DeLano , & Walter Barnes, Jr.
@@austinleodecker3635 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Only a handful of artist can do an entire 30 minute session of hits that they wrote & it’s all hits🔥Babyface, Keith Sweat, R Kelly just to name a few. Blessings to one of the most overlooked Kings of R&B💯
And in 30 mins he still didn’t cover all his hits. Insane! He’s the GOAT
He wrote for Dru Hill and the Boys.
you must be super young, he's not overlooked, he's the GOAT ...
And Smokey Robinson
@@JerrlEvans and he wrote for Mimi
Babyface is a musical genius. For a 61 yr old he looks damn good. I've been listening to him for years and I love all his songs. He's right up there with Luther Vandross, Michael Jackson, Prince, Whitney. The absolute best. 💞💞💞 ...... I have to say he's has good chemistry with Toni Braxton.
Yessssssss he's so fine for sure
Right Up There?? Girl he’s in the lead. All the others follow hon.
hes better
Baby face is the father of r&b I know he damn sure had a lot of babies made off of his music!
He's 61?!! Wow, black really don't crack! He's moving better than some of these young people!
Babyface was the reason the 90s felt good. What an incredible catalog!
And don't forget about Robert🙆🏾♂️
He is one of the absolute best composer/producer/performers I’ve had the privilege to grow up with. My teenage and young adult years were during the 80’s and 90’s and the music is still relevant today. These are just the highlights of the ones he wrote for men. What a musical genius!
Babyfaces song writing ability, melody and lyric combinations will go down in history as the greatest R&B songwriter of all time. How fulfilling it must feel to have all that creativity with your name on it, this you invented out of your imagination. I take my hat off to a great man.
"There ya go!" Well said/typed.
He is so handsome and talented❤💯👀👑☺
He's the best imo. No Greater than any other songwriter n producer
i think he is the greatest songwriter of all time, period.his catalogue of gold and platinum songs is unrivalled.not even stevie wonder, paul mccartney, john lennon, bob dylan, smokey robinson or r kelly have written this many hits for a variety of artists
💯
Didn't know he had written all these #1s for all of these artists, Babyface is Black Excellence Thank you for the great memories growing up in the 80s👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
This is the closest we’ll ever get to the 80s and 90s ever again. So sad. Loved the 80s and 90s. Time really flies. This music gives me CHILLLLLLS.
I’m so glad I lived thru this era of music. All bangers!
True. Especially when you factor in the fact that, some of the people you grew up with and enjoyed some of this music with are now dead. It brings back sweet/sad memories.🥲🥲🥲
This man is the reason for the 90's music..all classics...Hes the GREATEST HANDS DOWN
Mr. Edmonds you saved a lot of careers in the 90's, equally you introduced us to new musical groups and artist that are very well known to date. What talent. What amazing talent you are 💯%blessed with. When music was music 🎶. You are in the music history books for sure. 👏🏼 July 3rd, 2021.
Damn. Baby face wrote everything 90s. Baby face got the baddest musician with him Specially that Latino dude
The Latin dude is from American idol when jlo was a judge on there
That Latino has a voice
Rock steady rock steady
Can’t stop awwwwwww I’m picking you you picking on me
@@patricia54ism The lyrics are I'm digging on you..you digging on me.we digging on we.
Did I really just see him run up all those steps through the arena then jog walk all the way around it after dancing and singing through a entire concert. We are the same age......Babyface is a superhuman!
Running through the aisles is something he seems to do at all of his live concerts while on the road. Why I'm not sure but probably to give his audience a personal feel so as to say that he is still connected to his audience.
I saw him in concert and when he ran through the crowds and up the steps, security couldn't even keep up with him. And he never missed a beat. Phenomenal
@@jennismith6144
I betcha he eats a clean diet (probably meat & dairy free diet) with regular exercise, resistance weights & cardio.
[Idk, but I'd Betcha 💰 on that tho].
I stopped cooking to enjoy this concert!! I wanna thank whoever held that camera steady, didn’t talk the entire recording and managed to get some excellent footage❤️I feel like I owe you a few coins😍
Facts!❤💯
Amen!
Yes indeed!🤗 If it was me with the camera, all y'all would've seen was the ground and heard me screaming. 🤣
@@EraseYoRecord 😂🤣😂🤣
Agreed..The camera is flawless
THAT'S WHY I LOVE ME SOME BABYFACE!!! His swag is Amazing!! HE WROTE ALL THE SONGS I LOVE!!!! ❤️🔥 ❤
Honestly this guy is a genius and so Low key should be a movie or a story made on him ! 👌
Here after the battle with Teddy Riley. Babyface the G.O.A.T. Best way to get through the pandemic!
"PLANDEMIC", if this was an actual pandemic you wouldn't be enjoying or doing any of this. You'd be scared shitless. Wake The Fuq Up & stop getting sacrificed.
"For God so loved the world and saw that the world needed more love stories and happy moments, and he sent his grandchild Babyface"... From the book of Soul Imaginations verse 1980's-2020's.
for sure. Love from Sydney
This man is THE EPITOME OF THE TERM ICON
I know Babyface is talented and wrote many songs for other artists but this is beyond comprehension! Hits on top of hits! Truly amazing. This doesn’t include all the hits that he wrote for his self! So happy I have all of his CDs. If they aren’t priceless yet, they soon will be! 😊👏🏾💗
This was just the tip of the iceberg!! 👩🏾⚖️
He actually did BG vocals on some of these too. He’s that good! Writes, produces, plays the instruments, sings. Very talented indeed. If you’re fond of reading the credits on the albums (I am 😂) you’ll see Kenny B. Edmonds repeatedly ❤️
Yep! Literally, everywhere!😆
Hello
Babyface my main man right here he needs a versus ALL BY HIMSELF.
Wow!
62 and all that dancing and singing. To top it all off he ran around that whole audience 😳 Babyface is a true legend giving it all he has and some.
Babyface a BAD man....nobody messing with that pen....LEGEND 🙌
Who dares? Nobody can see him as a songwriter. No one wants that smoke!
Imagine being a Goat for 39 years! This man is so gifted. I love every song he has touched.
Babyface wrote it all. No approval needed, just saaaang. Pure talent!
Possibly second to none!
His talent is unmatched?and so is his ability to present himself with class.
Soooooooo talented AND sooooo likable. Truly has always come across as class act, kind, respectable...such a rare combination in the business. 🧡
Bass Player is KILLING IT!!!
YES SIR!
Truality
And he 's Lefty indeed. True 🔥🔥🔥
@Anthony Comer
Yasssss! Dude Killin' it!! 🎸
He showin out completely!!🤣🤣🤣But he is dope!
This gentleman is a National Treasure. Absolutely brilliant.
Babyface is EVERYTHING in concert. I saw him with Boys to Men and when he goes through the songs HE WROTE and SINGS them. He leaves your jaw on the floor. Killing it in his 60s.
He made falling in love mean being in love besides the Debarges!
He even did a duet with El, "Where is my love?"
80s and 90s babies say thank you to Babyface. A lot of you probably were conceived while these tracks were playing.
Facts
Thank you! Mid 30’s and know all these songs!!
Yep I was! Lol born in 1985 😁😆👏
Whenever "outside" opens up again? I'm travelling to see Babyface perform.
I’ll meet y’all out there!
ikr....front and center
Babyface wrote so many songs in the 80’s & 90’s it’s crazy
This was way better then 2021 halftime show
Absolutely.
Totally agree!!!!!
A musical genius !
This ONE Man wrote all these songs!!! Can you imagine saying, look at Grandad up their singing. His family should be so proud!
WOW!!!
Babyface wrote EVERYTHING in the 80s and 90s..plus the movies...wow!
waiting to exhale is my favourite sound track ever
I love you Babyface..you wrote the WHOLE soundtrack to my teens and twenties!!!
😂🤣😂🤣
I notice that babyface so humble he back up on some songs
Wow! He wrote all of these songs!!! He’s a genius!!!
Baby Face has an amazing catalog of music....He is certainly one of the greatest song writer's to bless the music industry!
I don't know who does better. No one can see him anywhere anyday. No smoke wanted with him.
Everyone can write hit songs but not everyone can write classic songs. You are absolutely divine Baby face.
The goat 🐐 nobody can cover for him. From decade to decade big business
@Come Slow Jam With Me yes
I didn’t know he wrote the Druhill song. Wow!!
Speechless,.... no idea he wrote ALL those songs. Everyone of them were huge hits
I HAVE ALWAYS GONE TO HIS CONCERT.BUT THIS PARTICULAR CONCERT HE SUNG ALL THE SONG HE HAD WRITTEN FOR THESE ARTIST AND IT WAS UNBELIEVABLE TO ME TO KNOW HE DID THAT.
There’s another song by Sisqo called “So Sexual” Babyface wrote it and sings background vocals too
JB Jay . Exactly!! Amazing,!!,💯
@@samuelandrews9989 very big hits and l dint know he wrote Bobby brown early solo songs l loved those songs too tenderony and stuff. from uk England
Legend!!! Looks like he wrote everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!💃💃💃💃💃
Know matter what Babyface write or sing "I Love It" will until the day I die! Babyface is DOPE💓
Yessssss
👍Those backup singers/performers & musicians are terrific, especially that one guy. I love that he lets the stand out vocally on a few songs. He seems so humble. 💝
This man is a STRAIGHT LYRICAL SONG WRITING GENIUS............and I love it.
He's a real genius. child of god
OMG...Babyface Still hitting it hard at over 60!! This man is amazing 👏. I would give anything to see him perform live. What a treat!! No rap no profanity pure Love and classy as they come. His stuff is classy tasteful. Respect 🙌 for love and women. This is what the world is missing Guys!!
If you ever get an opportunity to see him live....GO! I saw him at this concert in Indy. OMG! Perfection!🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎
BabyFace performed here in St. Petersburg, Florida a few years back. I was working the event and he was SANGING so well, I forgot I was on the clock. I rocked and sang the entire time. He took his shirt off and ran through the venue, I lost my mind like a love struck teenager. #teambabyface. Like @ J.R. Williams said please go see him in concert, BabyFace does not disappoint.
Best producer ever much love bro
Someone wrote that it's amazing he, Mr. Kenneth, "Baby Face" Edmonds wrote so many successful songs. Folks must realize when one is operating in one's gift, one is able to fulfill one's promise and share one's gifts and talents with others because the blessings have been bestowed upon one by God.
Peace❤🤗😷🕊
For the love of God; someone give dude with the vocals a contract! As for #Babyface had no idea he could move like that, been a fan for over a decade.
Wow, Babyface was truly blessed with a gift . No one writes songs like him.
It is so wonderful to see Babyface allow is crew to sing and dance with him, instead of women, they are singing to women wow, the women are loving it.
For men that Love real women and their mothers!!
This was everything that any and every woman could ever want or ever need. Oh yes he was sick He just didn't know it. We all found later. He had Covid 19. But he still put it down!!! He is THE G. O. A. T. No joke baby. Thank you Mr. Kenny Babyface Edmonds. This is hot and so are you. Great job.
Yesssssss amen
❤💯👑👀 So fine❤
Ms. Wanda.. 💯 percent agreed,,!!
Nothing short of amazing
The absolute driving force behind alot of great artist, he made them all look awesome, only God gives talent
like this, the only one to ever live a perfect life, gave one man named Babyface a true gift for mankind to enjoy, just perfection.
Damn! We got Bobby Brown because of Babyface. He penned by favorites!
Kenny you’re a musical giant.Hands down!!!!!!!!!!
I've always admired people who can pump out songs so constantly; especially for themselves and others. What a talent!
Babyface can really move. Age ain't nothing but a number. I would love to move with him lol! Great show...
Yes with his fine self
@@DatsexiVAChick yes He is so handsome❤👑👀
"Age ain't nothing but a number" tell that to the feds
All of his music is timeless. I love all of it. Thanks for posting it.
Another great talent, appreciate him while he’s here. Much love & respect.
Love you forever "Face"
Babyface and Lionel Richie and Michael Jackson, the best ever
Don't leave out Smokey. He wrote thousands of songs that defined generations from the 60's to the 90:s!!!!
@@silverfox7574 i was just bout to can't leave out smoky
and dont forget ROBERT THE GOAT KELLY!
And Stevie Wonder.
Mj can't play no instruments, has people play for him, can't use pro tools, is no producer. If you told him to play Billie Jean, bad, or any other song he sang on a piano there and then, he couldn't do it, that's no musican. Just a song and dance man. Can't compare him to people with true musical skills.
This man DNA is different
I agree that 100%❤💋
Shysta30 very true lol. Best comment 🤣🤞
It’s crazy that he wrote sooo many hits for sooo many artist at the same damn time!!!!
And what’s crazy he did all that for them and wrote and sang for himself also. This dude is the real definition of the goat.
God has granted my dear brother Kenny longevity and grace. May the Lord God Almighty keep strengthening him lavishly in every area of his precious life. Way to go Face way to go👍🏼
The Goat Song Writer 🔥🔥🔥
