Dallas Austin opened up to VladTV about working with Boyz II Men after the success of their first album, Cooleyhighharmony, and seeing a big change in their egos. Austin explained that he didn't like working with them in the studio on the second album, and he added that he was fed up with working with them after working on the first song for the project. He went on to share a story about the group being disrespectful to Babyface in the studio, which you can hear more about above. - บันเทิง

Facts
facts!
FACTS
It was privilege for ANYONE to work with Kenneth Baby face Edmonds in the 90's. He was THE producer for anything R &B back then..
Even pop with Madonna and like Eric Clapton. Dude's a genius.
Facts on facts!!! If this is all true I'm so disappointed with their behavior back in the day cuz Babyface was THE seminal R&B songwriter/producer of the 90's and literally gave them 2 of their 5 #1's...
FACTS
@@norybevol Very true--all respect to Face.
But I'll make love to you was trash.
Never liked it.
@@itbepoetry you never liked it.... that's cool that's your opinion. But to call it trash??? That's just hating. You can not like something and still respect it. It was one of the biggest R&B songs OF ALL TIME!!! but it's trash??? Meaning never should have been made... like thrown in the trash.... smh man please
I came straight to this video after Kandi said B2M was her worst experience to work with
i believe her
@@wezekanyathela5502 Absolutely! What Kandi had said about them recently was the first thing that came to my mind when I came across this and was the reason I clicked.
This just validates, everything Kandi said and more.
Right i was like kandi said the same shit an she produced some hits an dallas to..
Same. And Wanya had the nerve to name drop Babyface after they disrespected him when he shaded Kandi.. 🤦🏾♀️
Dallas Austin: the musical genius we didnt know we needed an interview from 🙌🙌🙌
You are really beautiful 😍😍😍😍
Agreed. Always been an icon
@@traw245 you are really thirsty
That "Creep" beat he did was 🔥.
Still to this day one of the best of all time.
Fax I remember back in the day me my homeboys always talked about nas ryhming over that beat still surprised nobody freaked it and spit something to it I think Kanye would do a good job of tweaking it and do a couple bars on it drake might sound good on it too or j Cole
Part of the sound track of my life.
Yep. And he and Chilli have a son together
And T-Boz vocals are crazy dope on there
Babyface is the real GOAT in music, that dude wrote and produce some of the greatest songs ever.
Forever Gooner 💯
@Khary Armah dude do u know the hits face wrote? Name 1 better
@Khary Armah he's co-GAT 😂
Forever Gooner he has but Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis could also be in the mix to stake that claim of GOATness
No. He wrote a lot of methodical R&B songs that all sound similar but that's only one limited genre. He is many levels below the "greatest songs ever" and "GOAT". You should expand your horizons.
Dallas reminds me of Dennis Rodman. Especially the way he talks.
Unpopular Opinion Yes!!! Sounds JUST like him. Kinda looks like a polished DR too. Wow.
@@TheRayvolution Maybe they kin.
Now that you said that, I see it too!
I was trying to figure who he reminded me of, you're right
I don't see any similarities between the 2 of them physically or in mannerisms and the way they talk
The Kandi interview sent me here!
I believe BOTH Dallas & Kandi! They aren’t the only ones that have said that! Both Wanya & Nate were the a$$h0les of the group! It’s been said that Nate was main reason that Bass didn’t want to return back to the group! He didn’t like that Bass was the only person sitting on a stool while they were performing!
hahaha im here too, i believe Kandi
@@wezekanyathela5502Lol me toooo !! listen when she said the nice one Mike came and apologized..I started singing that talking part where he came in with that smooth deep " Baby, I'm sorry please forgive me" part on bended knee I knew instantly that he had to be Mike lol
Bass has MS! He was literally sitting due to his health.
The former bass singer’s name is
Michael McCary.
@@chrisw.5823 narcissists don’t care
They almost passed on one the biggest song in the world. Ego is the devil smh!
Before you pass judgment. Just remember this is just his interpretation of how thing went. Im sure boyz to men would tell a different version. And the truth probably is somewhere in between.
I believe Dallas.
@Trending Clipz hiphop I was thinking the same thing.
@@BijinMCMXC me too. But it is still good to hear the other side, because chances are that they will further validate Dallas' claim
BijinXOXO you shouldn’t. He lies all the time
That's what happens when young inexperienced artist heads get blown up. They think they wrote the game not realizing they are just a drop in the ocean.
We dont actually know if everything is true what he's saying. He could just be mad cause they didnt want to work with him anymore. Artist and producers have arguments and disagreements all the time when they are working on a project. Thats nothing new.
@@gdc615 Naw, there's been industry talk about Boys II Men for years about their egos. You see they are never part of any of these singing shows.
@Trending Clipz hiphop hey clown read my comment again and tell me when you get to the part when i said artist and producers disagree all the time on songs. just because it was babyface doesnt mean they couldn't have an opinion. it happens. and its their fucking album. that doesnt make them bad people like hes trying to make it seem.
@@noncustody so now because they not in the 90's throw back shows it must be true. dude boyz to men at their peak was bigger then all those groups combined. they crossed over and had people of all ages and races buying their music. my mother even knew they songs. they still have a loyal fan base. they dont have to do shows with 112 jagged edge and 5 other acts to sell out venues. they just did a stint in vegas that ran for like 2 years or something. yall just taking a few things dallas said about these guys which really wasnt that bad and running with it smh.
@@gdc615 nah....they actually admitted to it. Believe it or not there was a point when no one wanted to work with them because of it.
So that explains why Boys to Men hits stopped, they thought they could do what Babyface does. Their own productions didn't seem to work out as well.
Babyface is the king.
They were trying to prove to their fans that they didn't want to rely on LA Reid and Babyface to write and produce their songs and you are right they needed him
That usually what happens when people let their egos get in the way and their heads get filled with pride.
Maybe, but Boys to Men are all still richer than Dallas Austin. So I guess they didn't need him or Babyface after all! Just check their celeb networth!
@@skywalker6648 😂that shit isn't always accurate
Babyface had a laptop in the 90s. Baller!
Laptops been around forever
@@ShawnMega laptops were rare in the 90s
@@ddavis8988 no they weren't, they was selling it in stores, they were just a hassle to most people because the battery life was horrible,bulky and no wifi. But you could walk in any store that sold computers and buy one
@@ShawnMega I didn't say you couldn't buy them. I said they were rare. Meaning, unlike today, every other person didn't have one.
Man pagers was still the ish back then.
Kandi Buruss said the same thing about B2M and people bashed her like she was lying....but Dallas Austin is saying the exact same thing she said
And yet no one came for him, not even Wanya cry baby a** but yet he had the audacity to come for Kandi; knowing damn well the girl was telling the truth about the group
Right and this interview was way before Kandi's
Wanya's response to what Kandi said alone was enough to prove her point.
@@moneycashlexus The same thing I said. He showed his character with that response.
Your attitude should change it's best to remain humble 💯
As successful as Dallas is, he's still one of the most Under Rated, Under Valued, and Under Appreciated producers!!! Dallas is definitely a Super Producer!!!
What does that even mean?
@@rationalmale7293 It means that Dallas should be just as Paid, and Revered as a long list of Super Producers (take your pick), but he's not!!! Dallas had a Music Label and a Production Company, Movies and Clothing Line (skateboard, shoes, hip and trendy) before a lot of people, but he didn't Sky Rocket!!! He's very respected among industry people, but not as well known to the public as he should be.... He was somewhat ahead of his time with a lot of ideas....
@@barnyard4068 with all of his fame, and awards..his net worth is 35 million. He seems to be doing very well in life. He is only 49 or 50. Is he not appreciated and valued in the music industry. He has produced for some of the most famous people in music. If he wasn't appreciated he wouldn't have that chance. Just short of people getting on their knees and bowing down, I'm just not sure what else you need to see.
@@rationalmale7293 Do you understand that Dallas Austin's net worth should easily rival Puffy's, Jay Z's, Dr Dre's, Timbalands, LA Reid's, etc.... Dallas's net worth should be a minimum of a quarter billion??? Why do you think Dallas said in his own words, "that he kept signing BAD deals"??? Why do you think he considers those deals bad??? It's because Dallas himself realizes that his net worth should be more! I'm not criticizing him. I'm complimenting him, and shaming the industry!!! Look at all the groups that he discovered!!! This man had a label deal and a production deal when most producers were only getting production deals. That is a huge difference!!!
You had not even thought of him before you read the article.
The way he just casually telling this story I dont think he lying.
EbonyMan 2K I believe him but don’t get it twisted, lying niggas can lie like it’s NOTHING so you can’t judge based off how “casually” they speak.
@@BijinMCMXC You know what ....You right I dated a recreational liar.
Mind you I wasn't there so I don't know the truth. Just say... when you have had ALL these years to create a lie, you will be able to tell the lie in a way everyone could believe.
@@angelahandley9343 I would say after 25 years, why would he have a reason to lie?
@@angelahandley9343 That nigga said after ONE album Boyz 2 Men was flossing diamonds and dissing Babyface and he said it casually like he was talking about how he went grocery shopping. If he can lie like that, he might be the devil.
This is so true. My wife worked as a waitress at the Cheesecake Factory in King of Prussia, right outside of Philadelphia. She waited on a few members of Boyz to Men. They were rude and one of them took his shoes off and put his feet up on the table. Their true colors shined bright when they blow up.
Smh
Bullfuckinshit
What? That sounds crazy.Way too extreme🙄😏
Sounds a bit cappish
That's not even the worst stories from my wife. She said Allen Iverson got kicked out of the cheesecake factory because he was being rude and wanted special treatment. Thing is no celebrity gets special treatment at the KOP cheesecake.
Wow. This story finally explains what really happened to Boyz II Men. After the 3rd album flopped, I couldn't understand how they fell to rock bottom so fast and couldn't get back up. I see now. Nobody in the industry wanted to pick them back up because of how they acted.
Unbelievable. Always stay grounded no matter how big you get.
Sounds like Boyz II Men became Men II Boyz
Drop Zone Media 😂
😂😂
😂😂
Boy II Men disrespecting Babyface 🤦🏽♀️..... Babyface is a legend!!!!
They might have been feelin' themselves a bit too much, and they probably could have used more tact in stating their opinions about the song, but it "is" Babyface-formulaic and I wouldn't blame any artist who said "No disrespect Babyface, but I'm tired of this! This the same shit you made 8 years ago with Whip Appeal." 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thats an understatement.
Name one artist that work with babyface that didn't file bankruptcy....
@@brynn_luv_gaza39 does outkast count?
I never knew Boyz 2 Men was acting like that, well they had to eat some humble pie later in life for sure.
Tanya Barboza sure did
I knew, they have some messy lives. I think one of them has multiple wives.
Domini478 I agree they are legendary and I never said they were broke
@Domini478 I agree with everything but, Mariah Carey sold the most records in the 90s 😌
Shiquila S Shiquila S Boyz II Men continues to tour and sell out shows. They have a steady residency in Las Vegas since 2013. They have toured with New Kids on the Block, BbD, En Vogue. A lot of their shows are solo. Majority of their shows are sold out. Just cause you are not checking for them doesn’t mean they fell off. A lot of artists do things outside of music. Shawn has a foundation and business with his wife. He also release an EP and is working on his solo album. Nate flips houses and Wanya is working on his music. They are still very much Boyz II Men and very much in demand. They are legendary. I have met them several times and they have been nothing but nice. Sure ppl have bad days and they don’t feel 100% like themselves but assholes are not them. Not after the 1st album. They have admitted their faults and owned up to wrong doings. Nate tells the story of turning down I’ll Make Love to You as well as Amazed which earned another group a Grammy. Don’t go based off what you think you know but based off facts. I have met them, the band, managers, staff and all of them are nice. One experience doesn’t define a person. Ppl think my ass is mean but that’s their perspective of an interaction and not necessarily me. The last album they release was 2014. They recorded a song with Snoop last Xmas and currently working Country and Bluegrass artists.
Yall be thinking, because an artist gives nice interviews and smile for the camera. And tell you how grateful they are. Meanwhile behind closed doors they are nothing they portray to be.
Yep especially Wanya he use to hit Brandy and talk to her like she wasnt shit
@@tjustnice1 oh wow
Agreed. I believe the real issue is us fans put these entertainers/celebrities on a pedestal and they feed off it and become cocky or just show their true colors. We need to learn how to separate the celebrity from the actual person. They are no better than us just famous.
Facts!!!
Mary J. Blige use to be a serious bit** when she came out, but didn't act like in front of the camera.
True because ironically, Lisa Lopes from TLC described Dallas as hard to deal with, greedy, and how he became hard to work with as well. Guess he can't admit that success changed him, too.
I was expecting the song they almost passed on to be some less popular song, not I’ll Make Love To You - one of their biggest songs ever! Sheesh.
88ntil like who? Only group that probably rivals them is New Edition
88ntil jodeci had one good album..out of three... and only two could sing...
Try again
koleon06 these young guys who toured with Boyz 2 men sound great but R&B is dead now smh th-cam.com/video/q6qoqacxRUw/w-d-xo.html
@88ntil I think End of the Road was their biggest song ever
Jodeci had one good album? Are you on crack? Diary of A Mad Band went double platinum without promotion. And Show after party hotel went double platinum need i mind you. Devante was the in house producer and in the group wrote, produced,arranged,and played the instruments. Also with the help of swing mob. Jodeci doesn’t get the credit they deserve. Kci and Jojo were the vocalist and And Devante and dalvin did the instruments, arrangements,writing.
And that's why they're not popping anymore! They burned a lot of bridges SMH
More talented than New Edition!? They broke off and did solo projects and were very successful. Boys to Men has tried to do that and failed.
Name some R&B groups from the 90s that did anything after the 90s. You can’t, because they don’t exist. The industry changed. R&B groups pretty much don’t exist anymore - because there’s no money in it.
Boyz II Men’s Full Circle album from 2002 had some phenomenal songs on it. They sounded great. It didn’t sell though. NO music that sounded like that was selling.
Archer Leocap Eh, different era. Boyz II Men tried when it was already too late. N.E. did it right at their peak and at a time when R&B was popping in the mainstream.
People remember that N.E.’s 2004 album bricked hard too right? R&B groups were over by then.
Richard Williams they do very well touring
You lost your mind BoyzIIMen are very damn successful to this day! Lord get your facts straight!
I know he's talking about B2M as a group but I really feel like Wanya was the leader of assholeness. Esp seeing how fast he came out with a rebuttal to Kandi.
I totally agreed
I really can’t believe he was acting like that
Yea hit dogs holler
If you feel like you’re being slandered or lied on publicly, why would you not respond fast? That doesn’t mean guilt necessarily
@@tanyabrown6969 if someone is talking about you specifically, responding to it doesn’t mean you’re guilty. If you’ve ever been slandered or lied on, you’d understand. Any time that’s happened to me, I responded quickly and angrily. I can’t stand being lied on, especially when the liar is the one who did me dirty. I’m not saying that’s the case here, I’m just saying “a hit dog will holler” in this type of case doesn’t mean the person responding is guilty. That saying goes for when someone is making a general statement about your group, be it black people, women, men, and you respond saying it’s bs, people will say a hit dog will holler since they weren’t necessarily talking about you and you got offended. But that ideology is bs to me too because when racists talk junk about black people and stereotype us, I speak up and that doesn’t mean it’s true about me. Same goes for when people slander black men and black women
Wait a minute! Babyface was carrying music around on a laptop in the mid 90s??? That guy was ahead of his time for real.
Lol did they even have laptops back then? This was 1993-1995
@@culkingsed yes, I had one.
During his MTV Cribs episode he called his chauffeur a "Beautiful Human Being." That's a real brother right there.
Dallas Austin always been humble and down to earth. The most underrated producer out there!
Boyz to Men ,Abc, Bbd, this producer is a legend. Shocked he looks so young.
Shit people forget he was only like 16 or 17 when he produced them songs
Don't forget TLC
@@trap4thr33mynameisdarrell9 but his wikipedia says he was born in 1970???
Black don’t crack
@@brucebanner3935 Lol ok he got his start in the late 80s early 90s which woulda made him a teen at the latest 20 so whats the point
Nate admitted to this at their live show I just saw them a few weeks ago. He said they passed up on some Number 1's that they regretted and those songs went on to be even bigger than their hits. He said when they were younger they had huge egos and didnt want to listen to older heads at the time since they had immediate success.
Rey Hugo The group as a whole kind of admitted to have this egotistical behavior in their Behind The Music special, said they went broke real fast due to over spending and requesting shit like gold encrusted microphones while performing lol. Dumb asses ruined their own career
Yes, I saw them a few years back and they said the same thing. They sang “Amazed” which they passed up. I think Brian Adams sang it and it became a mega hit.
@@KittyInkel it was the country band called Lonestar.
@@KittyInkel def went to Lonestar. Hey, many big artists turn down songs that become number 1’s. They can’t know for sure or take everything offered to them. Plus, the song sounded better wi Lonestar than it did with Boyz II Men. I don’t blame them for turning it down. Or night bot have been as big of a hit with them, just like End of the Road might be as big of a hit with Lonestar. Actors turn down roles that become hit movies all the time as well. Maybe the actor that does take it makes the movie bigger than it would be with the artist that turns it down
@@KennyBucketz they turned down more than their fair share so it seems and they admitted they were jerks.
Yes, it happens all the time. Like TLC turned down Baby One More Time...and no one can even imagine anyone but Britney signing that song.
But aftet their second album...their career tanked...and it wasn't for a lack of talent...
Gotta stay humble, this is a prime example of how people act when they're not used to having anything and then get everything, Dallas is a 100 dude
Even the some who grow with it act the same way. Seen it a million times over.
Tk Kirkland is the reason Dallas got his publishing & points
ohyes151 Facts!
TK Kirkland was a major player behind the scenes and I wasn't even aware until stories started to come out.
Huh

Now i understand why they havent had a hit record since then.
They had 2 hits after that, "A Song For Mama" and "4 Seasons Of Loneliness". Anything beyond that probably wasn't a commercial hit, but they sure put out some classics! ("Doin' Just Fine", "Colour Of Love", "Pass You By", etc)
DJ SOULCHILD yep!
@Kenny Lafortune the boys 2 men 2 record with water runs dry was amazing but name me one non mothersday boys 2 men hit song after that.
When was Babyface's last hit??

I would like to say that I'm shocked but I'm not; Kandi Burruss just said the EXACT same thing recently! Wanya is denying everything, but I believe it; they were once on top and hit the bottom fast! SAD SITUATION 🙄
Dallas Austin. One of the most celebrated, yet underrated albums of all time. Pure genius in my opinion. I actually got a chance to meet him as an intern at Paradise Studios, one of his facilities in Atlanta, in the early 2000s. I’ll never forget it.
how was he in person?
Much appreciated djvlad for the hardwork you do! Its amazing and eye opening to find out the background (struggles and obstacles) of all these key people that made such a huge impact in the in industry that we have such fond memories of when growing up. Keep up the good work brother. Big fan from Australia.
The 90s was the golden era
True facts
So true
Facts 💯
Say it louder....
Yes it was. I was a teen in that era
I heard similar stories about Boyz 2 Men attitudes, particularly Wanya, but I still love their music😎😎
lowkey_fla i can believe Wanya is an asshole. He seems cocky when he sings.
anmaxwell79 On god nigga be riffing to damn much. Sounding like a record player having a stroke 😬😬
lowkey_fla you ain’t heard shot. Their reputation professionally is flawless
Racentour I love his voice but he smiles when he sings like “yeah, I’m killing this shit”. 🤣
He be killing it though. There is not another voice like that one.
I never liked them like that... too much simpin' in their music. I preferred Jodeci, who were more thuggish, hip hop and on that player shit.
Why didn’t WanyA bring the heat to Dallas Austin for speaking his truth but goes in on Kandi Buruss when she spoke her truth (and she was a lot more gentle with the info btw) seems a little sexist
He didn't go off on Kandi , he was asked a question and answered
@@Sethlimel he threw a whole tantrum stop it
Well you know he don't respect women.
@@shannonangel3980 Apparently he doesn't respect anyone. People forget, the same people you meet on your way up, are the same ones you meet on your way down.

Gold.
Daammmnn!!! That's smoke. Here comes the Boys to Men denial tour.
😄
Lol
It’s crazy to hear that they were a-holes with a good image vs Jodeci w/a bad image and people that meet/worked w/Jodeci said they are down to earth cool ass dudes. However I guess that’s what happened when you’re a in house group.And I kind of figured that cause you have to watch out for those “good boys” 🤷🏾♀️
Micheal Bivins dressed them in college prep look threw people off.
@@chriscooks5437 jodeci was a asholes too
How can anybody be so rude and disrespectful to Babyface🤨 wow thats crazy
Imagine
They literally shit on Babyface ... One of the best song writers in music history. I’m almost speechless... now they wonder why their not loved or appreciated as much as they should be ... Humbleness will carry you well after your music career. That’s why MJ’s loyal fan base continues to fight and support him all over the world. MJ was humble and always showed the utmost respect for his mentors.
For those of y'all that don't know, Dallas Austin was the man 10-grand in terms of beat production in the 1990s. A lot of the CD's I listened to back in the 1990s and a lot of the CD's I still have in my three CD cases have Austin's fingerprints all over them.
Well, I guess that explains why Boys 2 Men fell off.
Florence Morale they never fell off they are still relevant.
Yeah, except they never fell off. Still sucks to hear they are this way.
They definitely fell off after II.
The third album was nowhere near their first two.
They’ve done some nice projects here and there after the third album, but they still haven’t been in the mix as before.
@@TheTiffany2710 They definitely fell off. Their album sales are not really that good these days.
@@cherryb853 They came to Albany New York a few years back for the 'Alive At Five' summer fest. It was a sellout. Boyz 2 Men are still Relevant.
I believe Dallas. Met him a few times and he was a real chill genuine dude.
i would like to meet him...
Nothing like the 90s
milliondollar styles thank God!
So basically Kandi was right .
Yup 😳
My best friend did an internship for Boyz II Men and she said the same thing. She said Mike was the nicest and Nate was the meanest.
Kandi said something similar. That Mike was nice and respectful.
I bet Wanya won’t come for Dallas like he did Kandi. Mitches only come for women

Nothing but bay love From Frisco finest T.Lowe and the Loweboyz ENTERTAINMENT Group INC.✌💯
What type of shit in the studio that was being made to make THEM DUDES thought “I’ll make love to you” wasn’t a banger
I concur
Exactly
ARIEL GOLD b cause it is a corny song
The diamonds in that Rolex, started blinding them... smh, but they were kids from the streets of Philly. The wisdom wasn't there yet obviously. Anyone one of us going from winning talent shows to the number 1 group in the country would of probably been ego driven too.
Do you believe everything you hear? You only have one side of the story.
Spill that tea Austin!! I am here for it!!!
It’s mighty funny Dallas said this but Wayne didn’t respond but Kandi had a bad experience with them as well but he wanna address her lol that says a lot... Scary ass
Exactly girl, it's cuz she's a woman. He knew if he pop off his mouth to Dallas the way he popped it off on Kandi it would've been a problem. And he don't want that smoke lol
No he was asked about it in an interview
@@Sethlimel yes wanya was asked just like kandi was asked. However the irony is Dallas said the same thing about them and called them a*sholes they never addressed him because he’s a man. Yet when Kandi said the same thing minus the a*sholes part wanya was quick to respond! Men who can respond to women but won’t say anything back to a man was the original posters point.
Hmmm...Wanye is a COMPLETE ASS!!
He did, he called Dallas out thru Twitter, I saw that tweet a couple weeks ago. He said Dallas was LYING and slightly cussed him out
i knew kandi didn't lie. my musician friends been said this for years.
Honestly I'm not surprise they like they from North Philly
Thanks for sharing this it should help other artists if they really listen to your story.
Some young artists still act that way. This dude doesn't have a problem keeping it reeeaaal.
Dallas turned out Madonna Ciccone Album BEDTIME STORIES one of her best albums 🙌
Humility and humbleness will carry you further in life
Thanks for giving us the back story, D.
Hearing this interview really gives me insight to why Boys II Men fell off the top so quickly. They disrespected BABYFACE- one of the best producers and songwriters in the industry at the time. I had no idea these dudes were such asses to people.
Yeah that's not why. They fell off because of the sound shift, and because they didn't sell themselves for further fame.
Damn I wouldnt have figured those guys to be like that
Tory wanya, shawn and Nate are jerks. They treated mike like crap for being sick. And every chance they get they talk bad about him and tell everybody they don’t need him because they were “ the voice of boy’s to men”. So no I’m not shocked that they told baby face or Dallas they didn’t need them. To this day those three dudes are arrogant
Yeah I'm shocked to hear this too..
Miss Spirituality not true
cbell3408 that makes him a jerk? Gtfoh
amcra1 That doesn’t make someone a jerk. It makes someone a peice of human trash. Fucking stay home if you can’t afford to tip. Oh, he’s famous so everyone should have to work for him basically for free? Fuck outta here you stan.
Chilli said the same thing Dallas is saying in her TLC in the studio interview.
angry bird fan 100 yall are haters salt n pepa is better anyway irrelevant and boyz ii men are bugger then tlc anyway bye
angry bird fan 100 Word. Left eye actually said Dallas asked them to pay him $6M for one song for fanmail knowing they had just filed bankruptcy and she wasn’t down for it but of course the other two were and I think that’s one of the reasons left eye wasn’t featured as much on the Fanmail album as she had been on the previous two, especially oooh on the tlc tip
Angel Johnson You all in the comments acting like you’re on their personal payroll. The interview is on TH-cam, dummy.
Story is 100 percent true. I met the group in late 1998 in Canada when they had one or there very first shows in Toronto.. I worked the venue and these were some of the biggest divas and sarcastic piles of shit you would ever meet. Lists and lists of demands what you can and cannot do. Threats to cancel the show, This man in the video is speaking facts.
Zook Inthe6ix your lying
“You’re lying”. Thanks for the comment, fans have a difficult time absorbing the truth with regards to celebrities. Believe what you wish,
I believe you 😉
They're making excuses for them or calling you a liar but if they were in your shoes they probably would be like "they were assholes". You respectfully agreed with what Dallas said.
Y'all fans are so deluted. Anyone with common sense knows celebrities have the biggest egos on the planet.
Its so upsetting that so many great iconic artists were dealing with bad deals I love Babyface but I don't respect what LA Reid did to people
I agree especially after seeing what they did to TLC. Those women had a diamond-selling album and were only making around $50,000 a year each.
In addition, Pebbles was in on it too. LaFace had some shady business goin on back in the day with TLC and Toni Braxton especially. Not to mention Damian Dame tragically didn't live long enough for their talent to flourish.
I'm just gonna make a wild guess by saying vlad is going to have boys 2 men on here in a week or so... lol
Vlad's gonna post a 7 minute video and 5 minutes of it will be a flashback to this whole video.
I want him to interview Babyface
@@BijinMCMXC TOTALLY AGREE!!!
Leo Solomon 😂😂😂
Shawn has already commented. 🤷🏽♀️
Tim and Bob are dope producers I first heard of them when they produced Bobby Valentino first solo album and the first single "slow down" and "blue Jean's" was the shit that album had some hits .they production style kinda reminds me of LA and face .
vincent conway Yea same here. Come to find out, Tim and Bob also did Jon B’s song They Dont Know, and many other hits. Them and Dallas all went on to become great producers, that’s crazy.
Yea, they were dope producers in the 90s, sort of like a younger jimmy jam and terry lewis. Dallas Austin groomed a lot of younger producers in the 90s.
enzigenes Yea that’s spot on
Def wanted to hear more from Dallas!
Boyz II Men recently admitted "Amazed" was written for them for their II album but they turned it down. It was given to Lonestar and the rest is history.
Mike From Boyz II Men said they treated him bad maybe he was telling the truth
They could sing, but I always preferred Silk's songs.
spilling the tea at its finest !!!
Thanks, Dallus for exposing the entrapment of people's own success because it's all a humbling experience... it said that you can be a victim of your own success
Man, I haven't paid attention to the R&B and hip-hop scene in about 20 years. Dallas Austin is one of the behind-the-scenes guys who has to have a TON of stories. He's one of those guys who was all over the place and you would never have known if you didn't pay much attention.
He be spilling tea. He's the one that spilled on Goonica i meant Monica punching Brandy.
@@rashadhaughton22 Brandy is a G.
@@rashadhaughton22 Like we give a shit? 😆😆
Anyone else think this dude's voice and mannerisms sound alot like Dennis Rodman?
Definitely one of the best interviews. He also seems so humble.
Babyface was the hitmaker of the late 80s until the early 2000s he was producing for everyone , he's definitely my favorite producer of all times
One of thee most talented producers in the game and still looks like he’s in his 20s
Damn Kandi...you got back up!
Now when you see them on that Fresh Prince episode it might be hard to not have that image of them being that way in real life
Amazing interview
I believe every word out of Dallas mouth. I use to see him often in Atlanta back in the 90's, always a cool down to earth brotha. He's the type when you see him inside the gas station he'll speak to you first. He would talk to you outside, he never acted like he was the shyt, when he really was. I remember he was smashing Chilli way before Usher. I think they have a child together, not sure.
they do...
DA is very well-spoken. I'd like for myself to speak as efficiently without losing train of thought or tripping over my tongue.
One of my favorite mixes of his, is of "The Power of Good-Bye" by Madonna. I love the original, and his mix just brought something fresh, yet keeping the familiarity. I especially love the vocal effect used in the mix, as it made it more haunting.
Wanya I’m sure was the main one. He is cocky still to this day.....
Kandy wasn’t lying!!
This guy is so humble, you can tell...
That explains a LOT actually. Because I wondered why they worked with big name producers less and less after II, and they started writing and producing their own stuff, which was inferior. This story leads me to think Jheryl Busby kept things together and then it was basically a wrap once they left Motown. They thought they were hot shit and didnt need anybody and the second they were on their own, the hits stopped.
One Sweet Day, End Of The Road, I'll Make Love To You, all that shit right there.... Joints!! Hell, even Let It Snow was a straight joint. Man these dudes made the 90s extra fun for a whole lot of boys and girls in the hood. Im so sorry to hear that these dudes weren't humble and grateful for their blessings. Extremely talented brothers. Still bumping their shit to this day.
Dallas Austin always been real in the music industry and has kept his head in the music not the crazy stuff big up always peace
As a boyz II men fan this hurts lol
Its funny how Wanya only shaded Kandi, for saying B2M was difficult to work with. But Dallas agreed with Kandi Wanya said nothing about Dallas.
Word quick to go at a woman
@@NYC247 they go at Dallas nathan snaped
I would like to see D.A. do more interviews!
This was a great interview. And what a mother to recognize her sons talents even going after him when he tried to run away.
