    This interview was filmed in 2018, but we never released the full interview until now. With the release of our new Johnny Gill interview, this seems like a good time to present the full interview for a fellow New Edition member.

    I absolutely LOVE the fact that she’s there with him. You never know what kind of emotional support someone may need. She’s been pretty supportive and letting him be interviewed. I can dig it. Respect to her for her being so patient with him. She’s totally loyal to him and his struggles. ❤

    Literally grew up with NE from the start. My friends, all of us white, SoCal kids near Disneyland, loved these dudes. We’d do talent shows and perform NE songs. Ricky is not lying about those weird extended performances by Bobby, they once performed at Disneyland in the mid 80’s on a stage on Tom Sawyers Island. The place was going nuts, and once Bobby got going he would not stop singing, was humping the whole stage, the boys had to just keep doing the same dance moves the whole time. Lol. At that time they had a banging performance of Prince’s I Would Die 4 U. To this day my friends still call each other by our NE names. I am Ricky.

    He deserves his royalties. He is a legendary artist. His deserves his flowers 💐. That's messed up. Contract, contracts, them contracts, hmmm‼️

    New Edition got robbed, their contractual situation was a total scam. Ricky's and his wife are a beautiful couple. His wife is just a natural beauty, no stupid dead spider eyelashes, lace front wig, not wearing 10lbs of make up or silicone stuffed like a holiday turkey. Just quiet and demure, the supportive background to his foreground. They still look at eachother with so much admiration like they are still in the honey moon get butterflies when I see you stage of a new relationship. The total polar opposite of the shit show marriage of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett.

    First time seeing this interview. I can see them both being there together. It is not just the music its their story together. Trials and tribulations and ups and downs and struggling together with their demons. I like the support they have for each other. This wasnt just a new edition interview its their own story together. I loved it and lesrned so much.

      Agree except that last part they get jail time because they run their mouths too much like bitxhes , anything Vlad ask they don’t have to answer if it’s going to put them in a bad situation so it’s them putting theirselves in jail

      Just like with Keefe Ds dumbass 😂 if you have something to do with any murder & the interviewer ask about the deceased person you should say next question …not give hints you had something to do with the murder to look cool

    What is that 20 or 40 year anniversary? I believe so. I guess this is good timing for the release of this video. I love me some Ricky. I love me all of them but this is getting to know his personality a bit more personal. Thank you for sharing.

    Much love and props Rick! To say you're such an unsung talent takes a backseat to the attempting to tame that monster... and still come back. Much respect to your lady who held you fish while fighting her own issues. THAT, is ridiculous and should be celebrated!
