Wow I never realized how much of a true showman Bobby was also his vocal range was out of this world man a lot of the male performers of the day took a lot from him whether they want to admit it or not.
Broderick Forehand his vocals were exact with Ralph's till he smoked, but they were high tenor adolescent, which competed with Michael's like Mustang to a Camaro does.
Thank you. irks me when people on other platforms say he could never sing. Very wrong. He was a real crooner and amazing dancer. Nor easy to do. Saw him in concert, UK, late '80s...One of the best concerts ever!
He gave his all in his U.K. performances, he gave 110%, one of the best R&B concerts I attended and I’ve been to a few. Bobby was the King of R&B and still has a little something something left in him considering all he’s been through in life. KING BOBBY Forever👑👑
Car Connoisseur Bobby Brown in my humble opinion was an Ultimate perform on stage just like Michael Jackson in the late 80's & early 90's! They both created magic on stage!
I just wish the young generation would take time and watch this ...and Just recognize This Man Right Here ... and just realize what a talented artist he was and still is ...he was the one that cleared the way for artists like Usher,Chris Brown, Ne Yo ... Can't wait for His New Album The Masterpiece To Drop ,that's the only missing piece in my life.
Bobby is a GREAT performer and great singer. He always could entertain the crowd. His Gyrating and humping the floor got him in a lotta trouble back in the late 80's in certainn states. I loved tghe RONI Live Video. Can't find it on TH-cam anywhere. Sigh
albsurelove omg me either all the got is the rock wit'cha videos wannafind the roni live back then smh they have the roni live Now but not back in "his" day smh
Paul wells Bobby made a comeback he's not dead he's still alive and he just got honored tonight plus his documentary was released it was a two-day TV series movie so he's back on top of the world God blessed Bob to make a comeback plus he still rich
MAN WHEN YOU ROCKING SHOWS IN Japan in your early 20s money coming in by the bus load, prettiest women in the world at your feet that would make anybody cocky!
Those background singers are fire too! This was a tour that never made it to the us. Looks like some spotted overseas dates. But what a Great production
14:11 the music just took over him he couldn't even sing or speak nomore this is how u perform he literally caught the "bobby ghost" on this stage at 14:11 .....he need to be recognize some type of life time achievement award for stage performance Cuz nobody fuckin wit bobby at this time he was leaving his heart on the stage everynight omg this is incredible I watched this atleast 40x
I love to see a young man dress well like this!!! and look how they dress now with the pants hanging off their ass!!! and he has talent and if he played the piano I would jump through this computer and u all would see me on stage!!! This is a smooth ass performance!!! and he can really sing!!!
I went back and watched Bobby Brown dance while Whitney Houston sang "Mister Bojangles". I think this was when I realized his talent was something to be reckoned with.
God only knows the career he could of had if he didn't get caught up with the drugs. When I hear people saying who's king of Rnb only one person comes to my mind that's Bobby Brown. He's the first artist to electrify audience with his stage performance in a way only Bobby Brown did and many others has since followed. All the R.Kelly Chris Brown Usher they're all followers of the work ethic and performance Bobby Brown made legendary. The main reason y I feel he doesn't get the credit he deserves is because so many people blamed him for Whitney's down fall. If only Bobby didn't get caught up with the drugs had people guiding him he could of possibly been up there with all the other greats in a way where no one could deny his greatness. In my opinion he and Whitney was too toxic for both of them. He probably could of done better and she could of also.
@@lblayde New Edition isn't in the back because this is not the Heartbreak Tour. Bobby went on to headline his own tour which lasted from 1989-1990. This was a part of the concert series the American Music American had in Japan....
Aint no way he could've done all that on stage in the states and it not been chaotic in that audience.We sistas would've went and got him,security would've had a problem lol
@@MikeBiddle I loved Luther too, but like a brother. They were not the same type of performers. I don't think that many women would be after Luther. 😒😑😩
@@MikeBiddle we all knew Luther was playing for the other team, so the fanaticism was more about extreme admiration and not sexual desire. For Bobby Brown, as he looks and sounds here, the sexual energy would have been beyond palpable. I can't imagine the anount of bodyguards that would be needed for any US urban venues during the climax of his career. The Japanese are overall very cooperative and compliant, and you even see security all over him every time he stepped off the stage there.
@@MikeBiddle I'm quite sure that some may have been misguided, but the majority of them knew that the only woman Luther had interest in was Patti Labelle.
Gary Mitchell85 he'll openly admit to bobby brown being his idol. I think he said that's how he got to LaFace, cause they did "Dont Be Cruel"....its messed up what happened between them.....
He is not jealous after that Bass solo😊Bobby just wanted to express himself in his music. He has been through a lot with the record companies cheating New Edition .
If i was bobby on that year in japan my line of musicians for that concert in japan maybe was be Drums: Akira Jimbo Bass: Tomohito Aoki Guitar: Jun Kajiwara Keyboard: Chizuko Pretty Honey Sax: Osamu Koike or Sadao Watanabe
His crew took the pants away from around his anklesAnd also took his shoes.I believe that pissed him off.I thought i saw his brow furrow from the side.He walked away with only sox on his feet.I think what he did next was his revenge..LOL!
When they bring the bridge in at 13:30 .....OHEMGEEEE (OMG) it makes u just get up And start dancing even if u outside or in ya house I swear Lol that part is soooo hype !!!!(I said hype like we in 91' no pun intended lmao)
I COULDN'T HAVE BEEN THERE HE WANTED SOMEONE TO DANCE WITH,,BABY I WOULD HAVE GOT LOST IN HIM,,WE BOTH WOULD HAVE NJOYED THAT DANCE,,,YOU WAS JUST TO CUTE,,SEXY LITTLE CHOCOLATE DROP,,BOBBY HAD IT GOIN ON AND STILL DO,,,
But now im laughing...He takes off his pants...slowly.And has another pair underneath.Ive never seen a vocalist do that.When i was a dancer i used to do it all the time...
@@primetimecollective it's not just weight gain. He transformed into someone completely unrecognizable. Even 10 years after this (Ja Rule video) he looks completely different and has zero sex appeal, he became more of a caricature. Years of substance abuse took away his looks, his body, his voice, and just about everything you can and can't see in this video.

Broderick Forehand Exactly. He was definitely an original.

@@MOA0831 Bobby had a more powerful voice than Ralph imo just like Ricky in the group
Thank you. irks me when people on other platforms say he could never sing. Very wrong. He was a real crooner and amazing dancer. Nor easy to do. Saw him in concert, UK, late '80s...One of the best concerts ever!
Wow, he was actually a great singer and performer. They always gave Japan their best performances.
Stephy check him out in the 1989 Japan performance, his best live performance ever
He gave his all in his U.K. performances, he gave 110%, one of the best R&B concerts I attended and I’ve been to a few. Bobby was the King of R&B and still has a little something something left in him considering all he’s been through in life. KING BOBBY Forever👑👑
Bobby’s band always had great dynamics. “Band break it Down” classic
They thought Whitney was crazy when she called him the king of R&B!!!! Dude know how to perform.
Marlon Wilcox I said the saaaaame exact thing hahahahaha woooow
Yessss sir!!!
Love me some B. Brown
In his Hay day the boy was Bad...
Because bobby stop making music at that time that's why they thought she was crazy for saying that at that time...
Bobby Brown is SuperStar. Tragedy happened, drugs happened and age happened. But thank God for seeing him through. He came out victorious
Say what you want to say about this man but he was boss in the 80s and early 90s

Truth!
Dude was the truth...a true entertainer...Usher and C. Breezy would have their hands full with a young B. Brown
They couldn't handle young Bobby
Break it on down, yeah. Lawd, Bobby had that fire! 30+ years since I first saw him in New Edition and I'm still down for Bobby B.
Don't you know Bobby could put it on you right.

Yes, the tip top. The very pinnacle.
1988-1993 Bobby’s PRIME YEARS
Bobby is a GREAT performer and great singer.
He always could entertain the crowd. His Gyrating and humping the floor got him in a lotta trouble back in the late 80's in certainn states. I loved tghe RONI Live Video. Can't find it on TH-cam anywhere. Sigh

Good-to good-to good to go solo!
This depresses and saddens me, to know what could have been. Say no to drugs.
Paul wells Bobby made a comeback he's not dead he's still alive and he just got honored tonight plus his documentary was released it was a two-day TV series movie so he's back on top of the world God blessed Bob to make a comeback plus he still rich
You can't do these high energy shows without some "juice". I understand how it all got out of control
MAN WHEN YOU ROCKING SHOWS IN Japan in your early 20s money coming in by the bus load, prettiest women in the world at your feet that would make anybody cocky!
And on top of that, A bad azz band!!

Zeakg it did make it to the U.S.
it was in us he had to tone it down a lot! He was off the chain just not rated R!
This was an event the American Music Awards held in Japan, it was Bobby and a few others that were apart of it...
