I always say it. So imma say it here. At one time, Babyface was like Magic Johnson with the no-look pass to the inside cutter. He was a hit making machine, pure genius. One of the best.
DONT FORGET ABOUT THE DEELE AND BABYFACE WITH TWO OCCASIONS THE LP AND TWO OCCASIONS LIVE IN CONCERT THOSE ARE A MASTERPIECE FACE ON THE INTRO OF TWO OCCASIONS LIVE!!! Is EVERYTHING 😎🔥
My Family and I had the Honor and Privilege of see After perform Live of at all Places the Texas State State Fair. My Goodness still one of my Favorite Performances!
So true - His Voice is Amazing, so much control and definition, Babyface said hes the best singer out of them all.. I can understand why he says this. So Effortless
Back then I only knew Babyface, but his brothers voices are undeniable didn't even know he had brothers that could sing like this. They should have been mega stars known to the entire world with those voices!!!!
Yes....Melvin ( May he R.I.P.)😔🍃 could Blow!!( Sing) as well as his brother Kevon....however let's not forget Keith!! This Brotha is a part of the group as well...and made the background harmonies....Complete !!!!( Just sayin)🙄🤔
Can’t nobody sing like Melvin Edmonds (R.I.P.) nor can anyone could replace him, this was a time when artists actually sung live and it sound better than the actual album version. Best believe they are still rotation with me.
This is when music was great. To this day, I kept all of my vinyl, cassettes and cd's for music like this and others because I love this music that much. I am so glad that my younger self had love for good music to invest in buying everything that I loved and the good sense as I got older to keep it no matter what the new trends show. I also made sure to buy at least one piece of equipment to convert any of the formats into a digital format whenever I choose and still retain the original. People haven't really caught onto the fact that all the "digitized or streams" are NOT providing people with a way to truly own something they paid for, the recent shutdown of Google's music service put a spotlight on this and people were pissed. I hope people only on Spotify, iTunes, Pandora, etc don't learn that lesson again if any of them decide to shut down. In some cases, some of this music isn't available on streaming platforms as crazy as that sounds. Everyone figured that out when it came to Prince's music, again another time I was glad, I had not gotten rid of my actual collection. I was able to listen to everything being played on the radio and internet when he died and then went and digitized all my stuff and listened to it whenever and wherever I wanted, in whatever order I wanted. I was my own DJ. My go too for music remains something tangible that I can hold in my hand and know it is mine until I get rid of it.
@stryfetc1 Social Media has became a nightmare 😕 for people, no privacy can't even have an argument 🙄 privately. Especially younger people they think it's funny until it backfires in their face.🙎♀️💣
Raw Footage and Ridiculous Classic!!! People like to say Melvin owned this song but I can't disagree more!!! KEVON owned this song.. To me, he outsings his brothers + Babyface with this. Beautiful falsetto and it's the song that made me a lifelong fan of his.. Love this. AFTER 7 FOREVER
Wow, they magical. Soooo good.. Back when artists could sing live better than the recording. So underrated. Melvin had such a beautiful voice. #RIP Sir.
This is still my favorite male group. The Temptations were before my my time and probably ranked number one of all time. But during the 90s, no one could sing like them. Jodeci was right up there too. These brothers bring it.
Beautiful legendary clean love song,by real singers! Not the majority of this garbage called music today! Salute to these brothers & those who wrote & produced this timeless modern day r&b classic!
Hasn’t anybody noticed? Or it’s just me. When I first herd “Toni Braxton’s” debut album (just another sad love song, 7 whole days) on the air waves, I thought it was “After 7”. She was definitely marketing their brand I guess.
I used to imitate Kevon all the time in high school lol. I think between him and Brian McKnight and Jodeci, that's how I perfected my singing voice lol
I absolutely love this song ❤ I hated they eventually broke up. These guys could have went quite far in the industry. Especially with Babyface in their corner, backing them with hit songs.
STILL watching in 2022 and on and on! STILL a fan, STILL love their music, STILL loving when love and passion was a major part of music. Rejoice In Paradise Mr. Melvin Edmonds. Shout Out to After 7 and anyone that love their music. Big Shout Out to Babyface aka Kenny Edmonds (Melvin and Kevon's brother) and Keith Mitchell.
One of the best male groups of all times hits after hits miss the 90's but and love the memories of After 7 Babyface save this gem for his brothers because originally it was written for his group the Deele but he pass it to his big brothers perfect choice ( R.I.P. MELVON)🤍🤍🤍🤍🙏🙏
KEVON EDMONDS is one of the most unappreciated vocalists the man is A machine ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Facts that boy is a monster 💯💯💯💯
My absolute favorite Edmond vocal wise
One of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard! 😪😪😭😭
Certified vocalist
How the h*ll you gonna sing live better than the album!?! They murdered this
Unfortunately, they don’t make ‘em like that anymore 😢
They really did no lip singing it does sound better than the recorded version these guys are bad to the bone
❤ I have to agree with this statement. Raw vocals are crazy
😊IKR?!?!
I don’t even listen to the album version I prefer live
If Babyface gave all the hits he wrote and produced to his brothers.. they would be the best group in the history of music
I agree with you 💯 I wonder why he didn't give them a quarter
They needed whoever did his marketing. That's what they needed
I honestly think they're the best group just because of their sound.
@@bossmail89 I agree
I always say it. So imma say it here. At one time, Babyface was like Magic Johnson with the no-look pass to the inside cutter. He was a hit making machine, pure genius. One of the best.
They were so so underrated and IMO they should be R&B royalty! No lip syncing just real authentic voices. They are solid in my rotation. RIP Melvin.
The dance moves too! I miss this era of hits so much!
I agree n they’ll always be in rotation on my playlist. 🖤
BABYFACE GAVE THEM THE SONGS HE
FELT FIT THEM THE BEST…DONT EVER COUNT FACE OUT. THEY ARE MUSIC ROYALTY…THEY ARE SUPER STARS BCUZ OF BABYFACE 😎🔥
DONT FORGET ABOUT THE DEELE AND BABYFACE WITH TWO OCCASIONS THE LP AND TWO OCCASIONS LIVE IN CONCERT THOSE ARE A MASTERPIECE FACE ON THE INTRO OF TWO OCCASIONS LIVE!!!
Is EVERYTHING 😎🔥
These brothas we re hella underrated
Melvin I see ya playa. You was something special. RIP. Thx 4 blessing us.
I love how you can hear the audience singing in the beginning. Nothing in this world like an Apollo audience. NOTHING.
I agree totally!! No doubt… lol 😂
My Era👍🏾
That's how you know you over when the crowd singing yo song before you even start singing the song
I love it. You can't pay an audience to do that. That's genuine fanfare
FACTS! 💯🔥
Melvin is so effortlessly suave. This performance is pure brilliance from the dancing to the blending of voices and harmony.
Melvin voice was so strong. Could have been a very successful soloist
@@sly1474 so superb that Melvin had the lows, Kieth had the middle & Kevon had the highs. What a power punch!
Melvin Edmonds is up in heaven with Gerald Levert, Sean Levert, Kenny Greene, Keven "Dino" Conner and many others.
Q
How do you know who's in heaven?
Forming a group of their own and giving one hell of a performance!!! RIH. They are truly missed 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤
Voice like silk. Like a angel🙏🏽
Yes and with tony Thompson
People talk about how talented the Jackson are!! The Edmonds are just as talented. If not as talented. As a whole unit!
2:26 - 2:29 Kevon KILLED that. My GOD. He has to be one of the best male Western singers ever.
💯
The man is gifted 🙌
My mother would light up bright when she played this one... She had a unique taste in sound... I miss her more and more every day...💯🌹💯
Them brothers can sing.. that's a fact!!!😊
Kevon and Melvin!!! Masterpieces in Vocal Talent!!!
My Family and I had the Honor and Privilege of see After perform Live of at all Places the Texas State State Fair. My Goodness still one of my Favorite Performances!
This should have 100s of million views
Come on dude, Melvin Edmonds?!! The strength of After 7!! Rest in Heaven brother for you are truly missed!🙏🏽
Damn he was a relative of babyface??
@@yungswagg8848 Yeah,his brother.
So true - His Voice is Amazing, so much control and definition, Babyface said hes the best singer out of them all.. I can understand why he says this. So Effortless
God rest his soul. Such a talent!!!
Gone too soon......😓😍🙏🏽
Back then I only knew Babyface, but his brothers voices are undeniable didn't even know he had brothers that could sing like this. They should have been mega stars known to the entire world with those voices!!!!
B Sure LOL I lived in this era they were! This was one of the biggest hits in late 1989 early 90s. It was a smash! They were a household name.
Me either
Well, After 7 had a lot of hits.
They were mega stars known to the world
@@kiambupowell2700 Dang I surely missed out bc I love them lol
Love how the audience started singing the song first. True fans! Lol😘♥️
Kevon's voice is pure
Yes Sir!!!! These boys are true singers. No auto tune needed!!!! A++++++ Kevon knows he can SANG!!! 😎👍👌
Real signing.
Kevon is a cold ass singer!
Yes. I hate one of them passed away about a year ago
These guys sound the same as their recorded LP's, thats genuine skill and talent. I love that.
I've always said the same thing! That's called sanging ‼️
Facts
They sound better ♡
@@KM-ql4eb YES! Even BETTER!
Honestly. That crispness in Kevon's voice...whew😢
Will forever listen to After7. The music now doesn’t even come close. Rest in Heaven Melvin Edmonds❤️❤️❤️❤️
When did he die??
@@Tailoredwright 5/18/2019
Wow I didn't know that we losing all our greats
So true I feel like Ive lost a member of my Family, Melvins voice is so distinctive, For me He was the Soul of After 7 RIP
Melvin was like the smoothest guy...really graceful
Just so cool with it. Magnificent talent.
Just saw them in Atlantic city. Awesome Kevon still sounds the same. Great show. RIP Melvin❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I will say it again they don't sing or make songs like this anymore and this sy was release in the 90s lovely ballet😊
Yes....Melvin ( May he R.I.P.)😔🍃 could Blow!!( Sing) as well as his brother Kevon....however let's not forget Keith!!
This Brotha is a part of the group as well...and made the background harmonies....Complete !!!!( Just sayin)🙄🤔
Facts!
babyface's brothers
No! Didn't know Melvin passed.
Mannn they all can blow the Edmond brothers will forever be in my top 5
When I listened the sing think that was a woman on the second voice, but, to my suprise, is a man!
So beautiful!
This might be one of the best live performances I've seen 🔥
Agreed fam. Ive this on repeat for weeks now. Flawless bruh
Can’t nobody sing like Melvin Edmonds (R.I.P.) nor can anyone could replace him, this was a time when artists actually sung live and it sound better than the actual album version. Best believe they are still rotation with me.
Babyface said his brothers were better singers than he was, & he was RIGHT😁
I would give all of them brothers their flowers💐
True. But he is on of the best song writers of all time and he also can sing. So he surpasses them in that aspect.
Kevin ALWAYS get me with that falsetto🎤#goosebumps
But every seat was wet🤔💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦
@@handsome-brute2666 oh yeah 👍🏽
Melvin practically resurrects on this joint. Rest on, brother.
Back when performing meant something heavy!!!
I love the whole performance especially the moves in the beginning ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Them boy was SANGIN! hitting those steps too. They killed it 🔥
🖤🖤🖤
Ooo wee 🖤🖤
Them Brothers can sang!!!! RIP Melvin Edmunds..
Kevon about to make me, you know what LOL
REMEMBERING MELVIN EDMONDS
(NOVEMBER 2, 1954 - MAY 18, 2019)
[11/02/2023]
They were not given their props they were dam good
This is pretty much the last years of good music ..we need this kind of music back in our life's don't y'all think ???
This is when music was great. To this day, I kept all of my vinyl, cassettes and cd's for music like this and others because I love this music that much.

Crowd went bananas when kevon started
All 3 of them very talented great voices.
Great R&B music never dies 🔥🔥🔥
Damn, takes me back. Where did beautiful music like this go? Makes me wanna cry.
@stryfetc1 Social Media has became a nightmare 😕 for people, no privacy can't even have an argument 🙄 privately. Especially younger people they think it's funny until it backfires in their face.🙎♀️💣
you will be happy to know they have a new cd out, i really love it, "unfinished business"
@@lynntuft9908 the music died when people stopped loving like they used to. And that's for both music and each other.
2020. Listening while missing these days. After 7 never got the respect they deserve.
Those mics are ON!!! ❤❤❤
Melvin! U are missed.. Melvin's voice blended with the other two members.. unmatched! I can listen ALL day!
Raw Footage and Ridiculous Classic!!! People like to say Melvin owned this song but I can't disagree more!!! KEVON owned this song.. To me, he outsings his brothers + Babyface with this. Beautiful falsetto and it's the song that made me a lifelong fan of his.. Love this. AFTER 7 FOREVER
These brothas can sing!!! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Melvin was smooth...RIP
Kevon thooooo....that man's voice is so angelic to me.
Rip Melvin Edmonds🕊🙏
Sound JUST LIKE THE TRACK!!! God bless them!!
The greatest love song ever! Don't at me
I am still listening to song right to day
AGREED
🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎
2021,Who listening 🎧,I'm 77,years old,who can top that,my jam
What true pure talent these guys have. Melvin you didn't get the recognition here on this earth but I know you do now with all of heaven top angels!
This is called “perfection”! Their vocals are just “on point”!
Still one of my favorite songs! ✨💕
Wow, they magical. Soooo good.. Back when artists could sing live better than the recording. So underrated. Melvin had such a beautiful voice. #RIP Sir.
Melvin, that voice and stage presence# miss your gift❤️
Sweet Memories
R.I.P.
Mr. Melvin Edmonds
Gone
But
Never Forgotten
One of the most talented groups ever. This song is such a classic! Rest eternally Melvin. Thanks for the hits 🕊️❤️
I’ve always liked Melvin voice the best
Old school crooner. Can't beat it
So proud to say this is the era of rnb l grew up in. We really had something special. ❤
Pure and classy such is music rest in peace Melvin. Sadly the group After 7 is so underrated
This is still my favorite male group. The Temptations were before my my time and probably ranked number one of all time. But during the 90s, no one could sing like them. Jodeci was right up there too. These brothers bring it.
I miss this era of Black music. ❤️
This is one of my favorite songs everything about it is perfect
To this day one of the Best R&B hits
I was always a fan of not only their timeless music, but with their style of dress, so Smooth!
I saw them in concert back in the 90s. They were wonderful.
They sound good live. Dayum ❤ it’s truly an art. Tone, breath control. And more! And the brilliant pen 🖊️ of their brother BabyFace.
All I can say is cold chills all over my body
Always well dressed, beautiful dance moves, not like the singers today .I love this era in music.
If this isn’t a performance I don’t know what is 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I comes back every few month's for this magic shiiiiii!!!
You know you tough when the crowd is sibging before you do
THE MICS ARE ON BABY🎯👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Omg I love them they all have beautiful voices 😍😍😍
Every couple has their song 🎶 after 25 years of blissful marriage this is my hubby and mine! Love this song 🎵
I am Hispanic and I love this kind music. Whit beautiful LYRICS AND EXCELENT SINGERS.
Melvin and Kevon are powerhouses
Forever the Best R&B Romantic Singers of the 90’s! God Bless them for their music ❤🎉💜🤗⭐️🎈🙏😇💐🎁💗💚🌞💛
Beautiful legendary clean love song,by real singers! Not the majority of this garbage called music today! Salute to these brothers & those who wrote & produced this timeless modern day r&b classic!
Man, these guys were the bomb, I am glad to see and hear how tight a group they are, sure wish Melvin was still around to add his magic to the songs.
Hasn’t anybody noticed? Or it’s just me. When I first herd “Toni Braxton’s” debut album (just another sad love song, 7 whole days) on the air waves, I thought it was “After 7”. She was definitely marketing their brand I guess.
They're so classy, well dressed and really command the stage. Beautiful angelic voices. ❤❤❤❤RIP, Melvin Edmonds. 💔❤
I use to think 2nd dude was a girl when I heard this song! He got a beautiful voice lmaoo!! Fire song all in all 💯
Good Lord, the beauty (and harmony) of these men, and that they keep on singing when the "music" stops........
I used to imitate Kevon all the time in high school lol. I think between him and Brian McKnight and Jodeci, that's how I perfected my singing voice lol
I absolutely love this song ❤ I hated they eventually broke up. These guys could have went quite far in the industry. Especially with Babyface in their corner, backing them with hit songs.
This is a performance, they danced and had bomb vocals
Its 2023... this is back in the DAY... when people had REAL Talent.
I love this song so much!! I use to imagine that I could sing like "Kevon Edmonds" parts back in 1989. I was 19. And I'm still imagining. 🤣🤣🤣
I had this CD on blast everyday...yes the entire CD...IM 55
May u rest in power Melvin u will be missed❤️😭
STILL watching in 2022 and on and on! STILL a fan, STILL love their music, STILL loving when love and passion was a major part of music. Rejoice In Paradise Mr. Melvin Edmonds. Shout Out to After 7 and anyone that love their music. Big Shout Out to Babyface aka Kenny Edmonds (Melvin and Kevon's brother) and Keith Mitchell.
Song still giving me the feels everytime I hear it
