@@opmallmoneyin Its FACTUAL and According to ..because some movies change how events and things went down for various reasons. For example In the 1998 Film The Temptations according to the film Melvin suggested that Otis , Eddie and Paul join as a group but in an interview Otis Williams said Eddie called Otis to form a group that we would call today The Temptations.
Johnny Gill is the lead on this one. He replaced Bobby when the group was having issues with him. Please watch “The New Edition Story”. Awesome three day movie that will give their whole history.
@@cflournoy1529 ok thanks! I'll have a look on BET, I just hope its available for me since I'm not in the US. I own the Jacksons American Dream movie on dvd so I was hoping this also had one.
Now, for Johny Gill (the lead singer in this song/video): "My My My" "Rub You the Right Way" "Fair-weather Friend" New Edition: "Cool it Now" "Mr. Telephone Man" "Is This The End" (my personal favorite) All of the above songs are early New Edition hits (back when Bobby was apart of the group) All of the songs listed below are around the era that this song/video is from (Bobby was not with the group at this time. He returned later though {during the Home Again era}.) "If it Isn't Love" "NE Heartbreak" "Not My Kind of Girl" Bell Biv Devoe: "Poison" "I Thought It Was Me" "When Will I See You Smile Again" (My personal favorite {Ricky was showing off}) But please, don't forget about Jodeci's MTV's Unplugged performance of "Lately".
Jack Reacts Yeah Bobby was in the group during their first few albums then he went solo after having issues with the group. After the group reunited in the mid 90’s after everyone individual careers he rejoined for that album.
@@JackReacts904 this person is bad at explaining things but Bobby brown had left the group because he wanna to go solo and when he left their two albums didn't do well until 1988 when they teamed up with Johnny Gill with Can you stand the Rain And If It isn't love.
Fun fact Bobby had already left the group and replaced with Johnny Gill who song the first verse with the deep voice he was a solo artist before he joined the group, he has songs Perfect Combination, Where do we go from here, My My My along with more hits. Michael Bivens who is also in the group discovered and signed Boyz to Men! Also you have BBD who is also in this group but BBD consist of Michae Bivens, Ronnie DeVoe and Ricky Bell. The other lead singer Ralph Tresvant also has solo albums and his hit song Sensitivity! Bobby Brown is in there earlier discography when they were kids like Candy Girl, Mr. Telephone Man, Cool Now and My Secret. Check out Rick James and Tina Marie fire and desire trust me you are in for a treat!!
@DUB Johnny was a solo artist before New Edition his first album came out in 1984 and he had two songs with Stacy Lattisaw in 1986...I’m showing my age right now 😂
You forgot Heads Of State, consisting of Ralph Tresvant, Johnny Gill, and Bobby Brown. New Edition could do a huge concert with BBD, Heads Of State, and several solo's as openers between just six guys.
Jack Reacts Johnny Gill replaced Bobby when he left. That’s why you didn’t see him in the video. Johnny had his own solo career prior to joining the group!
@@JoanRudith Johnny Gill was not Bobby's replacement. Johnny came to replace Ralph Tresvant. The other members thought Ralph was going to leave them and go solo, but Ralph never left the group.
Jack, check out the rnb band Mint condition. One of the best bands. And they play their own instrument's Mint Condition-you send me swingin M Mint condition- pretty Brown eyes
Careful now Jack, you're about to enter the New Edition, Johnny Gill, BBD, Ralph Tresvant, Bobby Brown world. The most talented group of the 80s and 90s. Wait until you get deeper.
This cameout after Bobby Brown was voted out the group. Here are some songs that include Bobby Brown: "Mr. Telephone Man", "Cool It Now" , and "Hit Me Off"
New Edition has so many good songs, can you react to: If It Isn't Love (one of their biggest songs), You're Not My Kind of Girl, N.E. Heartbreak, Hit Me Off, I'm Still In Love With You, and Home Again.
Jack you surprise me everyday! You know who Billy Ocean is? I love his voice! If you want a New Edition song with Bobby Brown, react to "Candy Girl", "Count Me Out", "Cool It Now", and "Mr. Telephone Man" "Word To The Mutha! " by Bell Biv DeVoe has all six members in it.
yes he must do if it isn't love (this is from the same album as this song so no bobby but a great song) - new edition brung it on this album!! jimmy jam and Terry are some hit makers
Jack I'm sure hundreds have already told you that Bobby brown was not in this video not this album at this point. The line up was bel, biv, devoe, Johnny gill deep voice, and Ralph tresvant Mr. Fausetto. However they have plenty of videos with all six members, I like "you don't have to worry", and "word to the mutha".
Johnny Gill is the guy with the deep voice. If you really want to see him flex his skills with some of the most impressive notes that you've ever heard listen to the song"Boys to Men" I guarantee you will be amazed!
Look up Guy. They're from this eara. First dude's name is Johnny Hill, he replaced Bobby Brown. the people who put Boyz II men together are three of the group members. this group has been around since the early eighties they were child singers and the second guy sounded like little Michael Jackson you can still hear it in his voice if you listen.
Bell Biv Devoe song posion That's 3 members of New Edition started their own group. Bobby Brown, Ralph Transvant and Jonny Gill all dropped solo records but always came back together. Their the only group who all sold millions other than their main group proving them too all be legends
Johnny Gill, who starts out the song, wasn’t an original member, but soon as he joined, he was automatically the best singer in the group. He already had his rep, & he represented when he stepped in after Bobby left. ‘Second guy’ is Ralph Tresvant who sang most of the leads when they were kids, like Candy Girl, & Cool it Now. These names are known in R&b. Wouldn’t hurt to check the history a little for the sake of perspective. Basically, they were kids when Bobby was in the group. He sang lead on Mr.Telephone Man, which was a pretty big hit. Very cute song & video. You don’t see Bobby cause he left to go solo & do HIS thing. First he had I Need My Girlfriend. Then he got more grown with stuff like like My Prerogative, & Every Little Step I Take. He also had movie roles, in Thin Line Between Love & Hate, & a cameo in Ghostbusters in 2. When Johnny came in & took his place, that was part establishing themselves as ‘grown’, with this song, & If It Isn’t Love. The other projects kinda all spilled out around the same time like early nineties? Ralph T. - Sensitivity; Bell, Biv, Devoe - Poison, & Do Me Baby. Johnny - My My My, & Rub You The Right Way.
This was the first super group. Everyone from this group has successful solo careers. Bobby Brown had a great career, Ralph had a good solo run and has a new song with Johnny Gill, who had a fantastic solo career. Of course we can't forget Bell Biv Devoe who had the most commercial success. Can you review 'Sensitivity' by Ralph Tresvant and 'My my my' by Johnny Gill?
Johnny Gill is the opening singer (added to the group after Bobby left) followed by Ralph Tresvant. They both have nice solo albums in their archives. The other 3 members spun off to form Bell Biv Devoe as a separate project in the early 90's but never left NE. Bobby was off doing his solo stuff at this time and there was a lot of "drama" like the group was falling apart -- you see them in the video passing around the newspaper. This was their statement that they were still going strong and that they could transition to a more adult sound after starting out as a group of kids.
Quik education How to tell who's who... the two leads are Johnny gill and ralph traservant both became solo stars and the 3 back up guys make up the super hip hop group Poison... by this time bobby is huge with his solo album and movie soundtrack.. and boys to men was founded by one of the guys from Poison
Johnny's voice is like warm butter. I remember hearing this song as a young child, and even today it gives me goosebumps. I really love how anyone who sees this for the first time recognizes how great both Johnny and Ralph are for entirely different reasons. Variety truly is the spice of life.
I love the symbolism of "Can you stand the rain?" Meaning can you battle the stormy weather.... in other words, when times are tough in our relationship will you be strong and stand by me!?? Very poetic way of saying there will be beautiful days and stormy ones in store for us....can I count on you!??
The News paper pretty much told the story of what they were facing at this time. Bob went solo and blew up, even though they were just as young, their last hit was stuff like Candy Girl etc when Bob was there. So there were questions of could they step up the way he dwas doing, it was a new era. The NE Heartbreak album showed they could and did. This song is a classic even today. Check out their New Edition movie mini series.
@2:52 Boyz II Men got their group name from a song off this same album (N.E. Heartbreak) titled "Boys to Men" (a concert favorite!). They sang that song for Mike Bivins (NE member) and he was impressed enough to agree to sign them on the spot. The abbreviated version was recapped in their debut single, "Motownphilly" and the video. @3:13 - Johnny and Ralph recently sang duets together. My fav: "All Mine." @3:44 - Bobby was living in his solo world as the "King of R&B.", so it's funny watching Bobby during this song when all 6 of them are live together. 🤣😂 @6:22 - Ralph is the original lead singer. Used to switch off with Bobby. He refused to let "them" convince him to become the Michael Jackson of the group. When Bobby left, Johnny came in with the Grown Man Voice and upgraded them from bubblegum R&B to grown folks music on "Can You Stand the Rain" and "Boys to Men." They usually switch leads between verses, especially on Johnny's debut with the group. Ricky's voice gets more shine on BBD hits as the only lead singer and on NE's "Home Again" album. @7:30 - Bobby was on a lot of the hits before 1986: "Popcorn Love", "Is This the End", "Count Me Out", "Mr. Telephone Man" (lead), "Jealous Girl" (claims to have written this in his autobiography), etc.
You are on a roll today, Jack! Love this classic! Boyz 2 Men's version is also sure to make you SMILE 😊 Please also check out Luke James who plays Johnny Gill in The New Edition story. "M.L.T.M.", "I Want You" would be great reactions also Johnny Gill "There You Go", "My, My, My" and "Lady Dujour" 🙏🏾
One of the New Edition members with the glasses (Michael Bivens) actually discovered Boys 2 Men. The group was named after the last track on this album titled of course "Boys 2 Men".
This is after Bobby left, in fact this came out around the same time as Bobby's Dont Be Cruel. Bobby was in it for the 1st 3 albums then he came back as an adult when they all came back together in 96, ever since their lineup constantly changes. This group is not only 1 of the most successful ever based on their own success but there's a spinoff group in this group & all the solo success. This group alone will provide MANY great & memorable reactions for you based on that you have the solo songs of Bobby, Johnny Gill (who is the guy with the amazing voice on here, hes 1 of THE best male vocalists of our time & doesn't get the recognition he deserves), & Ralph Tresvant (the guy with the high voice, he's actually the closest to being a lead singer), and the other 3 members formed a spinoff group calles BellBivDeVoe. And all have HITS
Johnny Gill (the guy that started the song with his baritone voice) joined the group after Bobby Brown was kicked out. He later went on to form the group LSG with Gerald Lavert and Keith Sweat. They formed the group with the initials of their last names. The guy with the higher pitched voice, Ralph Tresvant is basically the lead singer of New Edition.
@@JackReacts904 I'm not sure if you read my comment on your last video with Mariah Carey and the Dream I asked you of u could please react to Taylor Dayne Tell it to my heart 1987 next with the music video your gonna love her powerful vocals
the low pitched guy is Johnny Gill (who replaced Bobby Brown). the high pitched guy is Ralph Tresvant (the group's lead singer). you'll find that New Edition is one of the few groups where every member had solo success at one time or another.
Producers are the Legendary Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Responsible for producing a slew of Artists from Janet Jackson to S.O.S Band. Fun Fact: Michael Bivens (one of the NE members) is the one who signed Boys II Men. *Check out:* *Ralph Tresvant - Sensitivity (Album Version)* *Johnny Gill - My My My*
Bobby sang lead on Mr. Telephone man. They started out about 12yrs. Bobby left by the time he was 16 or 17yrs old. You can do a month on New Edition, Bobby Brown, Ralph Tresvant(guy with the high voice), Johnny Gill(the first guy) and BBD which is ricky bell(the guy with the glasses), Mike Bivens(the guy talking at the end. ) Ron Devoe (the tall one. Lol).
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis produced this track. They were best known by associated acts such as Janet Jackson (producing all her classic albums) and New Edition and a few of Boyz II Men tracks as well as other musical acts.
Bobby Brown started in the group and then he went solo after getting kicked out the group, but he comes back and forth into the group and they all tour together. Johnny Gill is the one who started this song off with the strong voice, he also has a solo career. Ralph was the falsetto, Ricky Bell had on the glasses with the runs. The are one of the greatest R&B boy bands to ever do it, and they don't get enough credit. Many groups have tried to copy their style, but no group does it better. I love going to their Concerts when they get back together and tour. They have a movie out called the New Edition Story, I think you'll enjoy it.
Another popular New Edition song is : If it isn't love. Johnny Gill , the first singer has some great slow/upbeat tracks. Other singers in the 80s/90s with similar powerful voices were : Alexandra O Neil Fake, Criticise , Christopher Williams I'm dreamin, Sherrick Just call and Will Downing.
New Edition one of the best singing groups of all time - for any generation. Johnny Gill (deeper voice) can SANG! They all are very very talented and have longevity in crazy show biz. I have nothing but love for New Edition.
New Edition started with Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, Mike, and Ralph from 83 to 85 or 86. Bobby was kicked out of the group right in the middle of their promotion for their All For Love album and they stayed as a four man group for a while. Then in 87-88, Johnny Gill came in to originally replace Ralph because Ralph wanted to go solo but they convinced him to stay. So it was Ronnie, Johnny, Ricky, Mike and Ralph for the N.E. Heartbreak album. Bobby Brown was going solo while NE was moving on with Johnny, they even toured together in 88. Then around 90, they all went solo. Johnny Gill, Ralph Tresvant, and Bell Biv DeVoe was formed. All six of them came back together for a reunion album in 96 called “Home Again”.
Boys to Men got their name from a New Edition Song called, "Boys to Men" sung by Johnny Gill. Bobby went solo and was in his "Don't be Cruel" phase at this time...
New Edition has an extensive body of work. Then 3 members had solo careers (Bobby Brown, Ralph Tresvant, Johnny Gill) and the remaining 3 formed another group BBD, Bel Biv DeVoe (for Ricky Bell, Michael Bivens, Ronnie DeVoe.)
The greatest comparison to be made is with the Temptations, really. Each member played a role in the group that parallels a member of the Temptations. Even the replacements parallel replacement members in The Temptations!
*NSYNC - I Thought She Knew It’s an acapella piece that gives each member their shine *NSYNC - I’ll Be Good For You (Live) Justin Timberlake wrote this song with their tour director Kevin Antunes (he’s worked with everyone under the sun) when they were on tour and it’s their most R&B centric song. The arrangement by the band is crazy and vocals are on point.
Hidden gem from New Edition: Helplessly in Love. Like the New Jack Sound? N.E. Heartbreak (New Edition), Money Can't buy You Love (Ralph Tresvant) New Jack inspired slow song: Sensitivity (Ralph Tresvant)
This man knows his music i am so happy I came across this channel I am young but I love old music.... people often think its weird but I have an old soul and I love it
The, Heart Break album also contained the track "Boys to Men"....the group Boys to Men would go on and use that as the name for their group..also, Michael Bivins (the one you compared to Denzel) signed them to a recording deal back then.
This was off of the N.E. Heartbreak album which was produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis (Janet Jackson's producers). You have to check out "If It Isn't Love" the first single off of this album. This was years after Bobby left. The whole group had success outside of New Edition. Ralph (the high voice one and the REAL lead singer) had a couple of hit singles. So did Johnny (the deep voice one). The other 3 guys formed a group called Bell Biv Devoe (BBD). BBD has a CLASSIC named "Poison." You HAVE TO check out that track (even tho you might have already heard it lol). New Edition was before those other groups you mention. They were considered the Jackson 5 of the 80's. They are true legends in the game. The first real "Boy Band." The Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, and every other "boy band" followed New Edition's blueprint.
Their best album. Jam and Lewis are my favorite production team. I was soooo happy when i found out they were producing Heartbreak. Saw the tour. Johnny Gill was a great addition no pun intended. The movie was quite eye opening. They deserved better.
I think it's so cute! When you millennials hear 80's music or music before your time! This is my era. New Edition is the greatest boy band of All-time in my opinion. ❤
Nah millennials were born from the 81 to the mid 90s…the Gen Z group are the ones where this music was before their time. As an ‘82 millennial I take offense…LMAO
I'm not sure if someone has told you this already, but Micheal Bivens of that group, New Edition, founded Boyz II Men and assembled the group as well as produced them I believe. The group title Boyz II Men came from the same title of a New Edition song
This album was called N.E. Heartbreak....the guys names are Johnny, Ralph, Ricky, Ronnie and Mike. If you want up beat from this album Not My Kind Of Girl or If It Isn't Love
This song and album was after Bobby left the group and was replaced with Johnny Gill. He was the one with the deep voice. He has a really good solo discography. Fun fact. One of the members of New Edition i can’t remember who, is the reason we have Boys 2 Men. He signed them and they took the name Boys 2 Men from a song by New Edition. A way to show that they were basically the new generation. Oh and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis wrote and produced this song.
It's funny, cause the member in this group named Michael Bivens was the one who put Boyz II Men on, and managed them earlier in their career, when he was still apart of New Edition.
With New Edition, Bobby Brown, Ralph Tresvant, Johnny Gill, and BBD there so many good songs to dive into. I remember everybody was skeptical about Johnny being part of the group after Bobby left but he meshed really well and that voice sealed the deal.🎶
Ralph Tresvant (2nd verse) made New Edition what it was. Love Johnny Gill too (1st verse). The other 3 made up Bel Biv Devoe, which was a huge group at the time. Bobby was in and out through the years Fun fact Boyz II Men got their name from the New Edition song called “Boys To Men”
The genius of Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis! They helped give New Edition a more adult appeal and sound. You've got to hear the New Edition song "Boys to Men" which features my favorite vocal performance by Johnny Gill. That song is what inspired the group Boyz II Men to take that name so that says a lot.
Bobby Brown might have had the biggest solo career after New Edition, but Ralph Tresvant (the guy with the high voice in this clip) and Bel Biv Devoe (the other 3) had some stuff worth checking out too. Please do “Sensitivity” (Ralph) and “Poison” (BBD). You’ll love it!
This is one of their best songs. Its funny you said that they sound like Boys to men. One of the members in New Edition signed Boys to men.
According to The New Edition Story Film on B.E.T , Mike Bivins managed Boys to Men.
@@wcm7135 it's not according to that...its FACTUAL

Look up Guy. They're from this eara. First dude's name is Johnny Hill, he replaced Bobby Brown. the people who put Boyz II men together are three of the group members. this group has been around since the early eighties they were child singers and the second guy sounded like little Michael Jackson you can still hear it in his voice if you listen.
Bell Biv Devoe song posion That's 3 members of New Edition started their own group. Bobby Brown, Ralph Transvant and Jonny Gill all dropped solo records but always came back together. Their the only group who all sold millions other than their main group proving them too all be legends
My favorite New Edition song! ❤❤❤❤
Next react to new edition if it isn't love
It's another New Edition song without Bobby Brown, but I still love this song. He probably won't do this one next.

Johnny Gill, who starts out the song, wasn’t an original member, but soon as he joined, he was automatically the best singer in the group. He already had his rep, & he represented when he stepped in after Bobby left. ‘Second guy’ is Ralph Tresvant who sang most of the leads when they were kids, like Candy Girl, & Cool it Now. These names are known in R&b. Wouldn’t hurt to check the history a little for the sake of perspective. Basically, they were kids when Bobby was in the group. He sang lead on Mr.Telephone Man, which was a pretty big hit. Very cute song & video. You don’t see Bobby cause he left to go solo & do HIS thing. First he had I Need My Girlfriend. Then he got more grown with stuff like like My Prerogative, & Every Little Step I Take. He also had movie roles, in Thin Line Between Love & Hate, & a cameo in Ghostbusters in 2. When Johnny came in & took his place, that was part establishing themselves as ‘grown’, with this song, & If It Isn’t Love. The other projects kinda all spilled out around the same time like early nineties? Ralph T. - Sensitivity; Bell, Biv, Devoe - Poison, & Do Me Baby. Johnny - My My My, & Rub You The Right Way.
This was the first super group. Everyone from this group has successful solo careers. Bobby Brown had a great career, Ralph had a good solo run and has a new song with Johnny Gill, who had a fantastic solo career. Of course we can't forget Bell Biv Devoe who had the most commercial success. Can you review 'Sensitivity' by Ralph Tresvant and 'My my my' by Johnny Gill?
I love New Edition so much from my youth. Brings back such great memories for me!
I was lucky enough to see them in concert on the Home Again tour. I’ve been a lifelong fan.
Johnny Gill is the opening singer (added to the group after Bobby left) followed by Ralph Tresvant. They both have nice solo albums in their archives. The other 3 members spun off to form Bell Biv Devoe as a separate project in the early 90's but never left NE. Bobby was off doing his solo stuff at this time and there was a lot of "drama" like the group was falling apart -- you see them in the video passing around the newspaper. This was their statement that they were still going strong and that they could transition to a more adult sound after starting out as a group of kids.
Quik education How to tell who's who... the two leads are Johnny gill and ralph traservant both became solo stars and the 3 back up guys make up the super hip hop group Poison... by this time bobby is huge with his solo album and movie soundtrack.. and boys to men was founded by one of the guys from Poison
Johnny's voice is like warm butter. I remember hearing this song as a young child, and even today it gives me goosebumps.
I really love how anyone who sees this for the first time recognizes how great both Johnny and Ralph are for entirely different reasons. Variety truly is the spice of life.
I love the symbolism of "Can you stand the rain?" Meaning can you battle the stormy weather.... in other words, when times are tough in our relationship will you be strong and stand by me!?? Very poetic way of saying there will be beautiful days and stormy ones in store for us....can I count on you!??
The News paper pretty much told the story of what they were facing at this time. Bob went solo and blew up, even though they were just as young, their last hit was stuff like Candy Girl etc when Bob was there. So there were questions of could they step up the way he dwas doing, it was a new era. The NE Heartbreak album showed they could and did. This song is a classic even today. Check out their New Edition movie mini series.
Me watching Jack's reaction 4 mths later he reacted to this New Edition song🤣🤣🤣ooohhhh gooosh...New Edition's most sensual song ever dear Jack😀
@2:52 Boyz II Men got their group name from a song off this same album (N.E. Heartbreak) titled "Boys to Men" (a concert favorite!). They sang that song for Mike Bivins (NE member) and he was impressed enough to agree to sign them on the spot. The abbreviated version was recapped in their debut single, "Motownphilly" and the video.
@3:13 - Johnny and Ralph recently sang duets together. My fav: "All Mine."
@3:44 - Bobby was living in his solo world as the "King of R&B.", so it's funny watching Bobby during this song when all 6 of them are live together. 🤣😂
@6:22 - Ralph is the original lead singer. Used to switch off with Bobby. He refused to let "them" convince him to become the Michael Jackson of the group. When Bobby left, Johnny came in with the Grown Man Voice and upgraded them from bubblegum R&B to grown folks music on "Can You Stand the Rain" and "Boys to Men." They usually switch leads between verses, especially on Johnny's debut with the group. Ricky's voice gets more shine on BBD hits as the only lead singer and on NE's "Home Again" album.
@7:30 - Bobby was on a lot of the hits before 1986: "Popcorn Love", "Is This the End", "Count Me Out", "Mr. Telephone Man" (lead), "Jealous Girl" (claims to have written this in his autobiography), etc.
You are on a roll today, Jack! Love this classic! Boyz 2 Men's version is also sure to make you SMILE 😊 Please also check out Luke James who plays Johnny Gill in The New Edition story. "M.L.T.M.", "I Want You" would be great reactions also Johnny Gill "There You Go", "My, My, My" and "Lady Dujour" 🙏🏾
Go Jack and your 18k! 🔥🤘🏾 New Edition has a cult following FOR SURE. They were the blueprint for the new era of male R&B groups.
Ralph Tresvant the second singing is the lead singer, the 1st person singing is Johnny Gill he joined after Bobby left.
One of the New Edition members with the glasses (Michael Bivens) actually discovered Boys 2 Men. The group was named after the last track on this album titled of course "Boys 2 Men".
This is after Bobby left, in fact this came out around the same time as Bobby's Dont Be Cruel. Bobby was in it for the 1st 3 albums then he came back as an adult when they all came back together in 96, ever since their lineup constantly changes.
This group is not only 1 of the most successful ever based on their own success but there's a spinoff group in this group & all the solo success. This group alone will provide MANY great & memorable reactions for you based on that you have the solo songs of Bobby, Johnny Gill (who is the guy with the amazing voice on here, hes 1 of THE best male vocalists of our time & doesn't get the recognition he deserves), & Ralph Tresvant (the guy with the high voice, he's actually the closest to being a lead singer), and the other 3 members formed a spinoff group calles BellBivDeVoe. And all have HITS
Hey bro. I got to say, I love your appreciation for R&B music. New Edition is one of the greatest R&B groups of all time.
Johnny Gill (the guy that started the song with his baritone voice) joined the group after Bobby Brown was kicked out. He later went on to form the group LSG with Gerald Lavert and Keith Sweat. They formed the group with the initials of their last names. The guy with the higher pitched voice, Ralph Tresvant is basically the lead singer of New Edition.

Jack Reacts thank you! ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Yass! Can't wait
@@JackReacts904 also do the gladys knight patti labelle and Dionne Warwick cover
@@JackReacts904 I'm not sure if you read my comment on your last video with Mariah Carey and the Dream I asked you of u could please react to Taylor Dayne Tell it to my heart 1987 next with the music video your gonna love her powerful vocals
@@michaelbreeding5901 I always thought Taylor Dayne's song, Love will lead you back sounded like Cant let go in the beginning
the low pitched guy is Johnny Gill (who replaced Bobby Brown). the high pitched guy is Ralph Tresvant (the group's lead singer). you'll find that New Edition is one of the few groups where every member had solo success at one time or another.
Shai ~ if I ever fall in love
RIcky is the one who sings the bridge. He's the group's secret weapon and his voice is the most well-preserved now.
Producers are the Legendary Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Responsible for producing a slew of Artists from Janet Jackson to S.O.S Band.
Fun Fact: Michael Bivens (one of the NE members) is the one who signed Boys II Men.
*Check out:*
*Ralph Tresvant - Sensitivity (Album Version)*
*Johnny Gill - My My My*
Written and produced by the masters Jimmy "Jam" Harris and Terry Lewis. They are legendary (same guys who work with Janet)
Haven’t heard this song in forever, this was also my first time watching the video! 😆
One of the members from New Edition found Boyz || Men so you are on the right track!
Bobby sang lead on Mr. Telephone man. They started out about 12yrs. Bobby left by the time he was 16 or 17yrs old. You can do a month on New Edition, Bobby Brown, Ralph Tresvant(guy with the high voice), Johnny Gill(the first guy) and BBD which is ricky bell(the guy with the glasses), Mike Bivens(the guy talking at the end. ) Ron Devoe (the tall one. Lol).
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis produced this track. They were best known by associated acts such as Janet Jackson (producing all her classic albums) and New Edition and a few of Boyz II Men tracks as well as other musical acts.
Bobby Brown started in the group and then he went solo after getting kicked out the group, but he comes back and forth into the group and they all tour together. Johnny Gill is the one who started this song off with the strong voice, he also has a solo career. Ralph was the falsetto, Ricky Bell had on the glasses with the runs. The are one of the greatest R&B boy bands to ever do it, and they don't get enough credit. Many groups have tried to copy their style, but no group does it better. I love going to their Concerts when they get back together and tour. They have a movie out called the New Edition Story, I think you'll enjoy it.
Another popular New Edition song is : If it isn't love. Johnny Gill , the first singer has some great slow/upbeat tracks. Other singers in the 80s/90s with similar powerful voices were : Alexandra O Neil Fake, Criticise , Christopher Williams I'm dreamin, Sherrick Just call and Will Downing.
New Edition one of the best singing groups of all time - for any generation. Johnny Gill (deeper voice) can SANG! They all are very very talented and have longevity in crazy show biz. I have nothing but love for New Edition.
New Edition started with Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, Mike, and Ralph from 83 to 85 or 86. Bobby was kicked out of the group right in the middle of their promotion for their All For Love album and they stayed as a four man group for a while. Then in 87-88, Johnny Gill came in to originally replace Ralph because Ralph wanted to go solo but they convinced him to stay. So it was Ronnie, Johnny, Ricky, Mike and Ralph for the N.E. Heartbreak album. Bobby Brown was going solo while NE was moving on with Johnny, they even toured together in 88. Then around 90, they all went solo. Johnny Gill, Ralph Tresvant, and Bell Biv DeVoe was formed. All six of them came back together for a reunion album in 96 called “Home Again”.
New Edition made the song 'Boys to Men' which was adopted by the group Boyz II Men who are produced by Mike Bivens of New Edition
Johnny Gill was a solo artist before joining NE. He had a hit song with Stacy Lattisaw called perfect combination...
Mike Bivins - New Edition member & entrepreneur actually discovered & signed Boys II Men to his label Biv 10 aka the East Coast Family.
React to Johnny Gill's song (my my my)
You should definitely react to “Hit Me Off”!!! All six members are featured on that track and the video is too fun!!
Boys to Men got their name from a New Edition Song called, "Boys to Men" sung by Johnny Gill. Bobby went solo and was in his "Don't be Cruel" phase at this time...
Classic song from an Iconic group!
Fun fact Jack Michael Bivins (a member of New Edition) actually gave Boyz 2 Men there start and helped them get signed.
The way this song makes me feel chiiiiiiile!!! So glad you got to it Jack!
New Edition has an extensive body of work. Then 3 members had solo careers (Bobby Brown, Ralph Tresvant, Johnny Gill) and the remaining 3 formed another group BBD, Bel Biv DeVoe (for Ricky Bell, Michael Bivens, Ronnie DeVoe.)
Johnny Gill was an excellent addition to the group. Him and Ralph killed this song!
The greatest comparison to be made is with the Temptations, really. Each member played a role in the group that parallels a member of the Temptations. Even the replacements parallel replacement members in The Temptations!
*NSYNC - I Thought She Knew It’s an acapella piece that gives each member their shine
*NSYNC - I’ll Be Good For You (Live) Justin Timberlake wrote this song with their tour director Kevin Antunes (he’s worked with everyone under the sun) when they were on tour and it’s their most R&B centric song. The arrangement by the band is crazy and vocals are on point.
These boys are from my neighborhood in Boston. All of them. They're still TALENTED AF.
Hidden gem from New Edition: Helplessly in Love.
Like the New Jack Sound? N.E. Heartbreak (New Edition), Money Can't buy You Love (Ralph Tresvant)
New Jack inspired slow song: Sensitivity (Ralph Tresvant)
please react to ‘Candy Rain’ by Soul for Real and ‘I Like the Way (the kissing game)’ by Hi Five🥰💞
and ‘Ready or Not’ by After 7
yes hi five!!!
Candy Rain...YES!!! I think I asked him to react to that on another one of his video comment sections.
Both amazing songs !
Someone has great taste.
This man knows his music i am so happy I came across this channel I am young but I love old music.... people often think its weird but I have an old soul and I love it
The, Heart Break album also contained the track "Boys to Men"....the group Boys to Men would go on and use that as the name for their group..also, Michael Bivins (the one you compared to Denzel) signed them to a recording deal back then.
This was off of the N.E. Heartbreak album which was produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis (Janet Jackson's producers). You have to check out "If It Isn't Love" the first single off of this album. This was years after Bobby left. The whole group had success outside of New Edition. Ralph (the high voice one and the REAL lead singer) had a couple of hit singles. So did Johnny (the deep voice one). The other 3 guys formed a group called Bell Biv Devoe (BBD). BBD has a CLASSIC named "Poison." You HAVE TO check out that track (even tho you might have already heard it lol). New Edition was before those other groups you mention. They were considered the Jackson 5 of the 80's. They are true legends in the game. The first real "Boy Band." The Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, and every other "boy band" followed New Edition's blueprint.
Their best album. Jam and Lewis are my favorite production team. I was soooo happy when i found out they were producing Heartbreak. Saw the tour. Johnny Gill was a great addition no pun intended. The movie was quite eye opening. They deserved better.
I think it's so cute! When you millennials hear 80's music or music before your time! This is my era. New Edition is the greatest boy band of All-time in my opinion. ❤
Nah millennials were born from the 81 to the mid 90s…the Gen Z group are the ones where this music was before their time. As an ‘82 millennial I take offense…LMAO
I'm not sure if someone has told you this already, but Micheal Bivens of that group, New Edition, founded Boyz II Men and assembled the group as well as produced them I believe. The group title Boyz II Men came from the same title of a New Edition song
This album was called N.E. Heartbreak....the guys names are Johnny, Ralph, Ricky, Ronnie and Mike. If you want up beat from this album Not My Kind Of Girl or If It Isn't Love
This song and album was after Bobby left the group and was replaced with Johnny Gill. He was the one with the deep voice. He has a really good solo discography. Fun fact. One of the members of New Edition i can’t remember who, is the reason we have Boys 2 Men. He signed them and they took the name Boys 2 Men from a song by New Edition. A way to show that they were basically the new generation. Oh and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis wrote and produced this song.
It's funny, cause the member in this group named Michael Bivens was the one who put Boyz II Men on, and managed them earlier in their career, when he was still apart of New Edition.
With New Edition, Bobby Brown, Ralph Tresvant, Johnny Gill, and BBD there so many good songs to dive into. I remember everybody was skeptical about Johnny being part of the group after Bobby left but he meshed really well and that voice sealed the deal.🎶
Hi Jack, can you please react to Blackstreet "No Diggity", "Don't Leave" and/or "Fix"? Thank you😊
New Edition:
- If It Isnt Love (Bobby had left, replaced by Johnny Gill)
- Hit Me Off (all 6 members including Bobby feature)
Ralph Tresvant (2nd verse) made New Edition what it was. Love Johnny Gill too (1st verse). The other 3 made up Bel Biv Devoe, which was a huge group at the time. Bobby was in and out through the years
Fun fact Boyz II Men got their name from the New Edition song called “Boys To Men”
The genius of Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis! They helped give New Edition a more adult appeal and sound. You've got to hear the New Edition song "Boys to Men" which features my favorite vocal performance by Johnny Gill. That song is what inspired the group Boyz II Men to take that name so that says a lot.
Bobby Brown might have had the biggest solo career after New Edition, but Ralph Tresvant (the guy with the high voice in this clip) and Bel Biv Devoe (the other 3) had some stuff worth checking out too. Please do “Sensitivity” (Ralph) and “Poison” (BBD). You’ll love it!
OMG it's like Christmas on your channel today! I always look for your notifications.
New Edition- Hit me off !
🤗 Thank you Jack, this was🔥
