- In the tradition of The Jackson Five, New Edition and B2K, this group quickly became a modern musical phenomenon with an army of screaming fans following them everywhere. The boys won them over with their futuristic fashion style, epic dance moves, and global-ready pop songs. Then, their lead singer left and naturally, things were never the same. Let’s find out what happened to R&B/Hip Hop group Mindless Behavior.

"If you're doing great in school you're definitely mindless." WTF.
They gave those boys too much creative control lol
Right, lol 😂
😂 😂 😂
@@villavelli actually they didn’t really get control at all, that’s they didn’t last 🤷🏾♀️
@Motown Gayes yeah it’s not a bad thing lol people are just taking it the wrong way
You know what was really wild.... is how Ray-Ray went from being the smallest guy in the group to the tallest almost overnight.
When I say I was OBSESSED with these boys😭😭😭😭
I thought they were all gay when I was a kid
@@TheEricknucklez18 lmaoooooo I though I’d date them one day 😂

@@TheEricknucklez18 PRICETON 😭😭😭😭😭dats my baby 🥺😍
Same lol
This group didn't really make it because of management's mistakes. They didn't give the group their own true identity. They were pretty much marketed as a new B2K after Raz B came forth with his experience being a B2K member. They should've marketed the kids as either r&b or pop singers. They used too much autotune on Prodigy's voice when he could sing, and focused too much on their dancing rather than truly helping them with their vocals especially as they were hitting puberty. When Prodigy, Roc, and Ray left, that wasn't "Mindless Behavior" anymore. The only singer was gone and the voices were all different. They had a new audience as young grown men so they were marketing sex appeal to grown women rather than the past audience. You can't turn a group from an innocent B2K to Jodeci 😂 It looks phony to the public. Their group name should have changed, and they could've possibly started out anonymous to gain a new audience because MB had too many problems that everyone knew about. I was a big fan of them and I hate that this was the outcome for them but life happens I guess.
I agree well said the little girl I used to babysit back then had a crush on mindless behavior and diggy simmons #memories .
I agree they did the same thing to B5 they had them singing grown up songs too quickly after the innocent ones.
damn girl i felt that
@@musiclover-cn7tb that’s definitely not what happened to B5... Diddy just screwed them over as he always does💯
@@justabreeze460 I know I read about the terrible deal they had signed but the group changed their name and it threw fans off.
Ray Ray should release a hair care line and some tutorials
Hair for DAYS baby!!!
Lol it's just DNA
😍😍😍😍
for real because that child's head of hair is EVERYTHING dammit
That’s genetics💀
Parents need to be involved with their children career. You never know who's around your children. They turned these children against each other and influenced them to bully each other. Prodigy was so right to leave the group.
Thing is Hollywood parents are no better..they can be just has damaging and greedy to the child star. They had to create a specific account so parents won't take money from the kids.
@@didigogo139 Yeah, I agree with you. Fame can be so complicated and even more complicated as a child.
They came and went so quickly. Along with the omg Girlz and Jacob Latimore (who’s more of an actor now ig)
Jacob Latimore still have music out
He’s an actor now
Jacob released an album last year and it’s really good
Yesss i remember that era

These boys had a whole era where they was dropping hits & good music! It’s crazy how the group broke up!
Very true it’s sad
@@kaypopgamer I watched the video & I was just like wow
I was obsessed with mindless behavior in middle/high school, I went to every single concert they have, I met them at a mall signing , and I remember when Prodigy left the group I cried so hard lmaaoooo🤣🤣 oh to be a teenager again😩
Ahhhh the nostalgia … I used to be so sad thinking about how one day the group would end 😩😭😭
Girl my cousin got my into them when we were preteens, then the next year she was like they lame lmao then got me into one direction and did the same thing 💀
U look 30
Elementary for me 😂
I swear 😩
I was literally a huge fan of them when they first released their song called My Girl. They came out along with Diggy, Coco Jones, Justine Skye, Jasmine V, Trevor Jackson, and OMG Girlz which was very awesome like I made sure I’ve never misses out a new song from them at all.
coco jones still killing it her music is classic RnB with a message
Can’t forget about Jacob Latimore. He’s a beast
Cant forget grayson chance, he was blowing up around the same time and then 'disappeared ' career wise. Still does music tho
Yesss a heavy rotation of jasmine v and Aubrey
🤣"And if you get good grades in school, then you're definitely mindless....🦗" 🤦🏾♀️
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
I could not stop laughing when I heard him say that! 😂😂😂😂😂
@@JuicyPopEntertainment lol
@@JuicyPopEntertainment that tamar meme was my exact face when i heard it the 1st time (i had to rewind that 2 more times. 1 to hear it again. 2nd time was to laugh).
Same!! That part had me dying
They had so much potential it's just sad how management and criminal actions affected them.
I remember how all the girls were talking about how ugly prodigy was. I think that was one reason he left the group too. I also remember.at one concert (saw on CZcams years ago) when they did their little dance breaks whenever prodigy stepped to the front the crowd got quiet. That would definitely fuck with someone.
EXACTLY and when they released the same album but 4 different covers, Prodigy album cover sold the least smh
People are humans with souls that have emotions and feelings.. What you saying is hateful and mean . Black people are so quick to tear another one down because they dont fit the normal image or stereotype. I can tell you are an insecure person because 1) you have a fake profile picture 2) your name is "Lambo chaser" lol ctfu while you chasing them he can actually afford them 3) you like to point out nonexistent flaws on people then try to say it shady like rather than going direct... so I bet my bottom dollar people don't like being around you in the real word and you have no genuine friends because you are not genuine your on the shady spectrum. 😇
@@mychemyche7172 girl what are you trying to say? He wasn’t sending hate to him, he was bringing up a past event that he experienced. He was talking about how a GIRL said something about prodigy not him. Read twice before you comment. 🙄
True when I was younger me and my group of friends had our fave I was in love with roc and Princeton and no one ever picked prodigy because we all thought he was ugly only one of our friends liked him 😩 but now that I'm older prodigy and Princeton is the cutest , roc behavior is disgusting and distracts his good looks and ray ray still ugly to me.
Ray Ray was on point with that interview, he seems to have a clear head
My thoughts exactly. He seems to be mature, wise, and has a good sense of self at his young age.
Not mindless at all
thats a fact
didnt he have a baby with michael jacksons neice
The trouble all started when Craigs mother thought her son should have a completely different contract as he was emerging as the lead singer on most tracks. She snatched him quick in an attempt to force the labels hand.
Trevor Jackson and Diggy the only people that still make music that’s from this era, Princeton still makes good music too
Jacob Latimore stays releasing quality music as well
Same with Jawan Harris in a new duo with Tiffany Evans💯🥰
Bahja Rodriguez from the OMG Girlz also still makes music.
@@MONET8iAM quality music at that
@@MONET8iAM I know her mom was in a version of xscape and her dad is from silk.
When you have a non-sensical definition of what mindless is.......WELLL.......
It’s not like mindless as in dumb It’s saying like I don’t care what people think about me
@@britbritnicole classfied words can still speak into existence
I didn't even know that members were replaced 🙆♀️
They called Charlamagne out for his weird behavior and their careers were gone
Yup
There's more to it then that
And he is weird. They were right
@@jadebear0717 Man's is a whole rapist
You think CtG got that much power???
Remember the New Boyz? These tight jeans wearing singers? Just 2 albums: Skinny Jeans and a mic and Too cool to care and they were done!
Look up Ben j on CZcams. He had an interview kind of explaining what happened
@@taishax9556 one of killed somebody right
Omg, I do
The reason skinny jeans are the present fashion thanks to New Boyz
YES they’re from my hometown!! I definitely love new boyz 🥴
The fact that they as the MB collective actually released albums as late as 2016 is fascinating to me. I taught 5th grade in 2010, and EVERY girl in my class loved these guys. I really thought they had faded after 2010.
To me, they faded when Prodigy left the group the first time
The albums were good too
Something about being young in the eyes of the media tends to be a downfall for plenty of celebrities mentally. If they're not surrounded by a good group of people that can hold them up they'll instantly fall. The new guys that joined the group doesn't fit at all. "Valentines Girl" was one of my favorites. I can't believe I was young and crushing over mindless behavior especially Roc Royal. Those were the good ol' days but as i'm older it's funny to see now.
Not a "one hit wonder", but they weren't here for the long run
I think from watching this the group did not make it because the boys weren't friends, and weren't encouraged to create genuine bonds with each other outside of the industry AS CHILDREN. It was strictly business, and then there are the adults around who put the business on a pedastal not the boys' well being.
PS Let's address Rayan's and Princeton's hair tho... gorgeous huh
Most groups that are "put together" don't last long ex. Pussycat dolls. Long time friends try to make sure everyone is being treated respectively and getting what they deserve.
@@redangel833 totally agreed... good examples are Coldplay, Maroon 5.... friends will always try to make sure each is comfortable even if they all have to sign something legal agreeing to the terms of their BUSINESS relationship
What they fell for is the oke-doke. The "You can do better by yourself" mess. Now they're finding out that the magic was the group! Separately they ain't poppin!
They won't poppin together 🤣🤣
princeton is
Yep

@@saucyx4 ik
I just said last week to someone: you remember a group called Mindless Behavior?? I ❤this channel! Thank you!
Honestly I think the industry was changing and young singers/groups were fading away. Mumble rap and trap singing was taking over and certain groups couldn’t fit in with the new style. And management played a role of course.. I remember when Tinashe first came out and she had that big hit that was quickly overshadowed by everyone singing like Future. 2010-2014 was the end of vocalists and ballads unless you were already a veteran in the game
Then why is the jonas brothers still happening
@@anthonytaylor7928 Because they are vets at this point.
@@ShikiFire jonas and these guys started around the same time these guys maybe even started before the jonas Bros
@@anthonytaylor7928 They did not.
@@ShikiFire jonas started in 2006 and mindless started in 2008 it's around the same time when it comes to music
Ray Ray's hair is GORGEOUS!!! 😍😍
Yass girl.
Ray Ray has hair that girls wish they can have..
He got it all without having to wear no weave...
His hair and complexion is A1 bih
Yass
Roc Royal ruined MB's reputation, including his own future. Ray-Ray and Prodigy were the highlights of this band (IMO)
Its wild the guy's not even eligible for parole until 2028
My little cousin was obsessed with them..they came out during a young era with Omg girlz, Jacob Latimore, and Diggy...

OMG they were our B2K in my generation lol 😂 holy shit. I was never into the group but they were everywhere. I’m very happy you covered them! The group was def filled with drama, especially when they disbanded.
Just Googled them, can't believe that Ray has a baby. Kinda didn't expect them to all be grown up.
It’s easy to see them as little kids. Haha

Honestly they always treated prodigy wrong because of colorism
No not because of colorism. Prod was the lead singer and did the most work throughout the group. Everyone else basically were mainly just dancing and having little parts in songs so its common sense that it was jealousy and mistreatment because one was doing more than the others. The boys probably felt like they weren't getting enough attention or were less important as prodigy and that's probably why it went the way it did. And besides, he has told the story on how he was treated multiple times over and never not once said it had anything to do with color. No need to bring race into everything
@@jays2870 how, he was doing all the singing.
Explain cause what???
@@makaylakaitlinhampton771 ur right but there was colorism especially with the fans being mean and rude to prod because he wasn’t mixed with anything and he was just blk and everyone wanted the other boys rather than him and ppl would tell him that he’s ugly and makes fun of him and till this day ignorant ppl still do it. That’s why I have a special love for prod and always had as a kid because he was my favorite out of the group and he made us fans all the music like there wouldn’t be Mb with prod and it’s a damn shame ppl keep messing with him like he gave up his childhood to be in urs and went thru hell and tried his best to stay for the real fans that love him but yk he couldn’t take it anymore so he left so that’s like my explanation of how colorism was also effecting prod aswell
I never kept up with them since they came out so I just wanted to know how thats the case?
Was wondering what had happened to this group. They had some hits back in the day and definitely just disappeared. Thanks for this one.
I was 100% a major fan when My Girl first came out and stuck with them right until Prodigy left. I was always interested in bands and as many know when an O.G. member leaves, the group just isn't the same. I attempted to listen to their new album when it was just Princeton left but it was so different, like they didn't have a transition into music like that. We went from "Girl wherever your heart is I gotta find it" to "She gone grind on my lap till I lift off" like baby--- I'll always be sad that Mindless Behavior were the right group just produced by the wrong people. They truly had so much potential but they were robbed of their possibilities. Wishing the best for all of them though, especially Roc cause I know the group was helping him not go down the path of trouble and it just wasn't enough.
They had sooo much potential
My girl was my shit back in the day especially when they dropped the remix with Ciara and Tyga.
I thought they really were finna blow up. But it's crazy how the industry is and how bad management can mess up a good thing.
There was a lot of young stars aside from them that got pushed to the side, unfortunate but life I guess.
Bro ngl I still listen to that remix till this day, that shit was straight fire even lil twist was in it
You should do a video on the group “Imajin” they were a dope R&B group that came out some years after Immature. They were black kids who played their own instruments, sang and danced. I don’t know about the other members but Talib is now an engineer, I recorded with him in Jersey a few times.
I love they're music. I always try to dig deep into the music world and try to look up singing groups or singers that are no longer spoken about. "Missin You" and "Ever again" by Imajin are my top 2 favorites. "Immature" on the other hand has so many favs especially "My girl" and "Constantly".
@@je39981 yeaaa, you’re taking me back to those days lol. I loved both groups, the Imajin album was good, the label waited too long to release it though. Immature, those were my guys, “never lie, feel the funk, constantly, lovers groove” even the “we got it” album was good.
At first glance i was thinking this video was about Imajin. I love their song "flava".
I’m waiting for one on that
@@britbritnicole black kids who played their own instruments like The Jackson 5 and Mint condition. I was intrigued by that, 2 guys on guitars, one on the drums and one on the keyboards, dope. I wanted to play drums when I was younger, so they definitely caught my attention, plus they were cute lol.
I remember watching an episode of basketball wives and Shaunie surprised her daughter with concert tickets for this group. I had never heard of them before that. It's sad that they had the same fate as so many other groups. In the words of Qtip" Record company people are shady"
Oh, I remember my little sister loved Mindless Behavior! My mom got tickets to their concert and she kinda forced me to go with my little sister and I mean it was cute, they were no B2K or Pretty Ricky but they put on a nice show and I always did wonder what ever happened to them
Great video! I have their albums. They had so much TALENT and musically I feel underrated. You know the music industry is something else. Boy groups NEED to come back in r&b/pop. It's sad Prodigy got mistreated and overall Ray Ray, Roc Royal, and Princeton got manipulates. I wanted them to go further into their music career. I hate this crooked music industry. It takes a lot of work, sacrifice, and dedication to make music. You just got to keep going. This documentary was good! Keep up the amazing work!!!
@Motown Gayes Exactly! The music industry is in shambles now. Before, we had black TALENTED artists connect and make good music. It's gotten mediocre. We have to support our black artists in music. Mainstream has gotten manufactured. And during the era I grew up, we had music platforms that celebrated music and artists.
That’s the thing I miss about R&B, there are no more groups and harmonies. Everybody wants to be a solo artist, all the money to themselves.
I agree they’re so underrated
One thing as a former fan I found interesting was their family life outside of music. They seemed to be doing so well for long enough to at least get their families moved into to better neighborhoods and homes, some of them seemed like they were still struggling. Maybe they were just comfortable there, or they just weren’t seeing the money.
Aw I remember when I met them at FYE when they were promoting their first album when I was 13. Ray Ray and Prodigy seemed like they couldn't care less, but the other two were incredibly sweet! I still have my autographed poster somewhere at my mom's house 😄
Rip fye
@@danschuster5187 My city still has them, but I know they're nowhere near as prominent as they used to be 😥
I feel like everyone wants to beyonce out of a group before time, sometimes sticking together especially at a young age, you get to experience so many things together and grow together
These guys worked so hard. That choreography was crisp!👍🏾
My mom had free tickets to their concert back in the day and I wanted to go so bad because I loved their music but also being at least 5 years older than them at the time, I stayed home 🥴
Wow, I remember suggesting a Mindless Behavior video recently on the B5 video. Thank you so much for reading our comments and for the tea ❤
When you hear all the names of the popular people they met up with and callabed with, it’s insane to hear how quick they got shut down
My daughter was crazy for them. Princeton specifically. Took her and friends to the concert at The Beacon theater in NYC. It was fun to see all the girls screaming with excitement as I did for New Edition. Lol
I went to that concert it was fire
I remember my daughter Skye René was in love with Princeton 😆😆 she and my niece went to a meet and greet and got pics and autographs when she was like 10 or 11..now that my daughter is 19 she acts like she doesn't know what I'm talking about..yeah ok 😑😂😂
😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Typical all my female cousins love them and now They act like they never heard of them
😆 🤣 😂
Without a good team it’s hard to stay relevant in the music industry
This was the IT boy group in middle school
If Danity Kane can reunite for a few shows, so can Mindless Behaviour
Exactly even ray ray said in a interview if it’s for the bag he will do it 😂 but they should Atleast maybe to make a bit more money. Like solo wise they aren’t doing so good but together if they reunite right now while they are still young bruh they would selll out so many shows
@@kaypopgamer Princeton said he didn't want to do a reunion. He said it was unnecessary and that he's doing just fine with his solo career.
@@girly.mimi00 I know that I’m talking about RayRay and prodigy and maybe roc when he gets out
Maybe it was just me but… I always felt like Princeton was the problem… and he was the most liked bc he’s mixed and lightskinned
It wasn’t cause he was mixed it was just cause he was cute. That’s why everybody liked Ray Ray, Roc Royal, and Princeton more than prodigy because they were “cuter than him” and Prodigy was “ugly”. roc had a little more girls than them cause he could also rap but that’s it. It wasn’t cause he was mixed he was just cute.
@@mindless.k6552 But Prodigy is cute, too, and ppl constantly called him the ugly band member. I believe it’s because he was the only unambiguous black member. The rest are mixed
What...Prodigy was the cutest!
yea he was cute to some but for the majority he wasn't considered cute. Dare i say "ugly" they was tearing his ass up. Plus disconnected in general. But looking back he definitely was cute baby and deserved sm better.
@@BriLaDivina98 he was really cute. And he was my favorite but most people didn’t like him. Out of all the team mindless stans he was the one with the least amount of girls. I’m pretty sure they didn’t like the other members cause they were mixed.
I’m glad they’re all well and working on their mental health. They look healthy and not on drugs. Even though one is in and out of jail. They all need a little time to grow up.
They say you stay stuck mentally at the age you become famous. Hope they mentally grow past 13 🤷🏾♀️
Crazy how as children they’re flipping the word Mindless into a philosophy 😂
They were coached they didn't come up with this on their own
Coached
On bro!!!!
Not a very good one lol
I thought they were little kids when they came out. I had a crush on Diggy ( who is around my age) and Lloyd.
Man these young guys were so talented I love all the mindless behavior songs 🎵🎵
Man I remember listening to these dudes everyday and everytime I went to my girl cousins house they would have posters everywhere 😂
My friend in 2nd grade said his dad was their manager, this just unlocked a ton of memories, and its crazy to hear about them again
If you are an 80's to mid 90's baby, you grew up in best era to be a teen, "The Teeny Bopper Era" - late 90's to early 2000's. Boy, we had Backstreet Boys, N'Sync, B2K, 98 Degrees, Monica, Brandy, Aaliyah, Destiny's Child, Ciara, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, 112, Jagged Edge, just to name a very few. Not to mention TRL on MTV and 106 & Park were on & popping back then. The Internet was still fun pastime, no social media, no smart phones (just cellphones), kids still played outside, tons of teen movies, reality TV was still new. The movie, music, TV Industry were just obseseed with teens. It was a dynamic mix of old and new that made it a unique time to be a teenager and pre-teen.
The ball was dropped for this group , I grew up with them I’m probably like 2/3 yrs older lol but they were the “ boy group “ for my time period . I personally feel like the boys , fans & the team behind them were especially rude & mean to Prodigy . After awhile the boys got big headed & it was obvious who the favorites were & it was a toss up between Ray , Princeton , & Roc meanwhile Prodigy was treated like a extra despite being the leader & main singer of the group . I met them SEVERAL times & each time Prodigy was always attentive & sweet acknowledging everyone but I can’t say the same thing for the fans who met him , a lot of people would speed past him during a meet & greet , barely say anything to him or would just ignore him altogether then when it came to pictures some people wouldn’t even bother to stand next to him . I seen all this happen in person I been to meet & greets , concerts , & pop ups so when I heard how he felt during his time in the group & to know he expressed this to the people around him & it was ignored bothered me a lot . But they had the potential & talent to make it far & bigger than they did but it was like everything was half assed as far as their management like didn’t expect them to make it as far as they did . They came out with the idea of being a new B2K rather than being a new boy group , so that became the “ slogan “ for them & it was mentioned all the time in interviews & introductions . They mainly focused on choreo vs training the boys vocals to where they leaned HEAVILY on auto tune for Prodigy & when the boys came into puberty there was no transition it was literally “ my girl loves me “ to “ keep her on the low “ lol we obviously know with age comes different interests but for the boys , the fans & the direction of the group it was a huge jump from being at 1 to somehow ending up at 7 with no in between . On top of the fact I feel like management & the adults around them didn’t make it a point to teach & emphasize unity between the boys & let them know no one is more important than the other & everyone is needed to make the group work because several of them started to think they were the “ it “ factor of the group which lead to beefs
I just love how you go SO deep in the 90’s. I totally and completely forgotten about them!!! Wow. Another spectacular episode. Especially hearing your voice and the way you speak, lovely Narrator Queen. 💖😍
My little sister was such a fan of this group. It’s sad really as they were manufactured and didn’t actually have a true friendship among each other. It’s also like 3LW & PCD when you have ( management) trying to dictate what happens and making members feel obsolete and replaceable . I feel they have a better chance solo then regrouping.
the way i used to ride so hard for them back in the day. damn cried when prodigy announced his departure from the group
I wish girl and boy bands were still a thing but hey deja vu always happen right
My daughters (now ages 21 & 24) had the biggest crushes on Mindless Behavior...
I used to be obsessed with them! Went to their concert and a meet and greet! sad to see how it ended tho
If you get good grades in school your mindless....? He really didnt think that one through 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
I used to love them along with some of my friends! I just remember the odd Facebook groups that were made where girls would make fantasy stories about being with them, getting pregnant, and doing other inappropriate things with them.. (late elementary, most likely middle school girls like me at the time, or high school) me and my friends would join the groups just to read these crazy stories too🥴 I think they were called imagines if I’m not mistaken! My faves were Princeton and Roc Royal it’s unfortunate that he has went down the wrong path and they don’t communicate with Princeton. Hope all is well with Prodigy and Ray Ray 💕
Those kids were so talented. I cant believe that was 2008. Wow! I thought it was 2013 or 2014. 😆 I cant keep up with time.
thanks for doing a video on mindless behavior there one of my favorite rnb group i wish they would get back together and create music again i have the album #1 girl and their secound album all around the world
I swear Vincent Herbert can't close his mouth his mouth always open 😂😂😂
I still listen to their music to this day, been listening to them since I was a youngin 😖 I’m a 2003 baby
They got blackballed because they said something mad disrespectful to Lauryn hill on the bet award show
What he say
I had no idea want happened to them. One moment I was listening to “Mrs. Right” and “Hello” and next I didn’t know what happened to none of them. I didn’t know about the soloist, new members etc. My goodness. I wondered what happened to them. Okay then at least I somewhat know now. I feel bad though now looking and listening to this video about them. Who knows what the future or years will bring.
I took my kids to a concert and paid for a meet and greet. These kids were not singers but were very talented. The songs were bops, but even a brief glimpse backstage at management let you know these children were not going to be around long. Mgmt had behavior like people from the worst hood. Jacob Latimore is a talented singer and is unbelievably slept on. He should have risen to the top long ago. He needs new management as well.
Ray Ray been releasing solo music? I didn’t know that. I may have to check out his music. Not only do I love Mindless Behavior as a group but I also like their individual music as well
I just remembered that I loved this group as a child..I can't believe I forgot them
Well at least this answers my question about Mindless Behavior. 😁 Whatever happened to The Boys and Another Bad Creation? 🤔
The Boys is already did the UnSung.But yeah we want to know what happened to Another Bad Creation.
@@amiehampton867 The Boys did Unsung? Okay. Thanks.
@@amiehampton867 ABC PM here too Chris and Ro Ro did an interview on YT. Google it. Told amazing stories and there was a reunion in ATL
Looks like everyone wanted to be a star
Molestation is what happened. Anyone who have been in the situation knows what it looks like. It shows.
Wait what? What happened
finally someone "awake" in the comments...everyone be talking "they had so much potential" what sheep like things to say....they were PRETEENS for goodness sake....babies!!! If yall were awake you would know what happens in the industry to celebrities despite age. they go through immense ABUSE....mostly sexual abuse and even..."andrenochrome harvesting"....which i wont dive into. JUST DO YOUR RESEARCH. why do u think some cover their eyes and always where glasses??? the eyes are the window to the soul....and for most of these stars their souls deplete.....they can only display sadness or emptiness through their eyes. The only thing that keeps them going is feeding off the energy of crowds when touring because it becomes an addiction which eventually turns into narcissism...leading to young broken men in the system which leads to broken future generations and vise versa for the young women in the industry. WAKE UP people!!! they are not circus animals for your entertainment...these kids are being exploited and all yall wanna do is talk about how much your "children loved them".....how sad. There are people exposing the industry daily and yall still turn a blind eye. Them falling apart was probably better for them then years spent in an EVIL industry...im sick to my stomach.
Molested??!
I remembered when some yall use to go INNNNNNNNNNN on any girl that was rumored to be dating any mb member or was by them.Lordt some people was roasting the hell outta girls😴😪😪😪
I completely forgot this group was a thing. They were huge for like 2 months in the early 2010s
The Music Industry Is Demonic.
I remember them from when I was in elementary school. I didn't know them well but one of my friends loved them.
They had some hits! I still listen to them!
Me too
This group had so much potential
They did not want to sell their souls
Why i get the feeling tthese boys were violated and that has something to do with their lash out behaviour as they grew old..? Im just reaching...
no you aint. stay awake fam. they were hurting....their parents exploited them.
Ray-Ray was actually my sister's favourite.
But I preferred Prodigy. They came when I entered junior high.
They were one of my favourite groups.
Respect for Prod and Ray❤️❤️✅
If you get good grades in school, you’re mindless. Makes since why they’re Mia, they’re back in school 🤦🏽♀️
their group name is ironic
I was in high school when they came out and I thought the group was cute I wondered what happened to them… now I know
