I luv that Biv never lost his accent
charlita25 Biv still lives in Boston.
I know
+Candie P y would he live in boring ass Boston LOL
Craig McDonald Some people asked why Prince stayed in cold ass Minnesota. 🤷🏾♀️
I think he is a actor
I would pay to hear Mike read a audiobook. Love his voice.
pam brown yesss he is smooth
I wanna hear Ron voice
Lol I would pay to hear him sing. He rarely sings
Yes!
Mee Too
vocally, Ricky is the underdog because his voice was great then and definitely one of the best of New Edition nowadays. Even in 1996 he was holding his own vocally but people don't notice it like that.
Kevin Johnson Your right!!!
Kevin Johnson I noticed!
I always said Ricky Bell has the best voice of the original members of N.E..The ONLY one who's gift is better is the ACTUAL new edition,NO pun intended,Johnny Gill. I loved the fact that when BBD was created Rick actually got a chance to really shine and I really loved that the mini group BLEW up bigger than any out during that 1st album when they were the ones who were left behind when the other members wanted to pursue their solo careers.
Same here, Ricky was always my favorite. I always thought he did not get enough respect.
jaso144 Biv said in another interview that Rick was originally the lead singer..and I agree he Was slept on!
I am so impressed with Ronnie Devoe. He has such eloquent articulation. He makes you want to hear the whole story told by him.
Gadd Ovame He is in the real estate business
I like positive radio hosts, this is so rare.
Monnie66 they keep it real
Monnie66 her demeanor is comforting and positive. She asked Mike about his story in the best way possible and without attacking, probing or judging.
Ms. Perfectly Imperfect ...She was auditioning for them: "i aint just a big butt and a smile, yall!" 😂😂
and sexy too.... WHOOOO!!!
She really did do a good job. Her approach seemed naturally positive not tricky or messy like so many others. I applaud her in her craft.
Why mike always cool & smooth talking
Lol
JB Films Always lmao
JB Films Can you imagine how he talks to his Wife after an argument?!? "Come on baby let's just talk it out!" *In his smooth voice* lol 😏
But Ronnie Has SWAG Out The Ass. After N.E. Heartbreak He Came Out Of His Shell.
james hayden This thread is about my baby Mike though. Ronnie got enough complimentary threads 😂😂😂. JK lol
Omg no lie I knew this movie. Will open doors for NE that they rightfully deserve. This goes to show... God may not come when we EXPECT he is going to come but he's STILL on time!!!! Yesss I'm very happy for NE
Chi Waithe I agree!
Shaquille Wilkins actually they have been trying to make this movie for ten years. Bobby was the last to come on board it was first going to be on the big screen so everything is not planned they way they thought it would go
Shaquille Wilkins in other interviews they have stated Paramount would have put it on the big screen had it not been for Bobby not wanting to sign his rights away and Mike Bivins actually said this was the one time they actually happy Bobby didn't agree with them. So BET wasn't always in the plan but it was the right decision in the end
Edward McNeil dude I'm telling you that in the same interview (breakfast club) that they said the conversation about the movie first came up at the BET awards so BET was always on their list. Not that it was first on their list. But it was up there
Shaquille Wilkins so because they were performing at the BET awards means they were considering BET? That's not what they stated but bottom line if Bobby would have signed it wouldn't have been on BET and everyone but him at the time were ready for it to be on the big screen there is no arguing that
Idk why I'm so obsessed with their speaking voices. them Boston accents so bomb
It cracks me up that Mike is still handling the business for the group since he is the one with the expertise in dealing with record executives. It's really cool that all of them know their lanes and trust each other to handle their area. Mike stepped out of the room to handle that important business and the other two didn't event blink an eye to say they needed to be on the call.

Ronnie talks with no commas or periods. One long run on sentence lol
cherie0882 Lol it's like he's rapping while talking
Micheal Bivins has a lot of connections...he was instrumental in the revival of the Showtime At The Apollo TV show...he makes a lot of moves behind the scenes.
Ricky sung his ass off on that joint!!🔥🔥🔥
The Bone Thugs Story is gonna be a classic!!!
They're getting paid back royalties from their earlier songs... God is good... :-)
Arnita Blowe Yes....I'm so glad! What the devil meant for evil, God meant for good.
msmylifegolden ellis ...way 2 real...1 Luv
Arnita Blowe Amen
Arnita Blowe Praise God!!!!!! 😢 God is sooooo good!
Arnita Blowe YES, and as adults who can handle it, I'm sure, better than they could or would have at 14....it all works in proper order. 😊
Let me tell you...how this movie has introduced NE to a whole new generation. My 7 yr old nephew has watched it every time it came on. Last night he was on his tablet listening to the Candy Girl album. He made me show him on the movie who the real people were in the group. He was so into it he was asking me about Uncle Brooke. My 13 yr old son has a new found interest in the group because he likes to sing. I have watched this movie every time it was on including on Saturday where I spent about 12 hours doing so. I love it...I could feel the authenticity. The actors were so amazing and I am grateful to the guys for opening up their lives to us. Especially Rick. I was totally taken aback with his substance abuse but I am so happy that it seems that he has taken his recovery seriously and that he appears to be doing well. Overall, it was crazy how off the hook they were. I mean they gave Brooke a heart attack...really y'all????
Silly Kitty he really did have a heart attack though
Silly Kitty Yes it is so surreal hearing my teenage daughter playing N.E. and B.B.D. everyday since the movie!
Silly Kitty Same here! My daughter is 8 & I'm from Boston so you can imagine how awesome it is to me that she's interested in them. I love what the movie has done! I sit in amazement like 'Wow, they're FINALLY getting their recognition.' And thank God they are while all of them are still alive to get it. Totally loving this..
Silly Kitty awwww. That's what's up!!! That's sooooo cool. And the culture needed this collective smile, and multigenerational family time. To you and your family, ⭐️⭐️❤️❤️
I mean all those years of stressing him out...I see why!
Michael Biv posted on Instagram said they reached 19 million views that's amaaaazing!!
I'm soooooooooooooooooooooo happy for them. New Edition deserves all of this recognition. Walk of Fame, sales increasing, breaking social media, and especially getting paid from past songs....God is Good! God always makes some bad turn into the good for your life. I AM INSPIRED....I love music so much. This is True R&B AT ITS FINEST 😍 😍 😍 😍 😍 😍
One thing tho...this TV film/project got the craziest promotion I've seen in a while. And it worked.....like a motherfucker!!!! N.E. has been part of the fabric of my childhood and i'm so lucky to have witnessed it all!!!
I'm sooooooooo happy for them,they are well deserving of those loooooong overdue Royalties!!!! 👏👏👏
NE 4 Life. Drop a double cd for your fans!!!!! Glad to hear Ricky Bell got thru his darkest moments. Hopefully he'll stay in the light. He's my favorite singer in the group. He's their best kept secret!!!!
So proud of them! ❤❤❤
@04:23-04:44 what the hell Ronnie & Mike giggling about lol
Ronnie and mike in the background joking around😂
Lol
I have a new respect for each member of New Edition after seeing that movie. They went through so much my heart goes out to them. I'm glad they seem to be doing well now. I hope all 6 members go on tour or make a new album. Bobby is my personal favorite but Ronnie is #2 because something about his voice and mannerisms just got me. BBD's new album is great too!
I like the radio personality's energy
charlita25 I like your energy
J real ....Bruh...
I'm SOOOOOOO happy that our dudes are FINALLY getting paid for their catalog!!! That brought tears to my eyes!!
they are due those royalties
I would like to see Jodeci's story played out as a movie I would also love to see DeBarge because their Unsung episode was so powerful. I have been a NE fan from day one. I 1988 I was pregnant with my first child and my ex husband would always play Al B Sure, Keith Sweat and Michael Cooper Diner for Two....but when NE came out with the Heartbreak album and Can You Stand the Rain that changed the game. It stayed in the cassette player. #NE4Life
msnatural1000 o
Can you stand the rain....gave me chills!
They aging good!
That is definitely a project mentality. Be mad as hell at each other, bloody each other up then still showing love like nothing even happened. It was good they had that spirit. Kept them together and differentiated them from other groups.
This is why I have much respect for BBD. They don't mind discussing issues within their group and that is what keeps unity, love, peace.
My forever All Time Artists!!! God bless! I love you NE/BBD!! 🔱🔱🔱
Bobby Brown needs his own story & y'all know it
CrystalHairston2 Bobby biopic is coming up next. The New Edition biopic was suppose to have been basically a Bobby Brown featuring NE biopic. The group did not want it that way. Now Bobby will get his own 2 night biopic. Also, Bobby is the one who held out to get the 3 night biopic. Some were upset with him for holding out, but they later thanked him. Love Bobby my favorite ❤❤❤. NE4Life.
@@doriswoods4776 sep. 4,2018 BET
Well you got it! lol I still haven't seen it yet
You got it and it was good glad Bobby cleaned himself up for his wife and his kids ☺
He just had it it was on B.E.T. TITLED "THE BOBBY BROWN STORY" check it out!!!!
Jodeci biopic has to be on point!! Including the wardrobe, producers by Jodeci members, hairstyles etc.
They announced back in the summer they were working on a biopic for VH1.
Ronnie got that Obama speech skill.(Or Pres Obama got that low key Ron swag lol) He draws you in and keeps you at his word 😍
Need an Outkast movie.
P Diddy yup
P Diddy oooh...thats a gooood one!
cant do outkast without doing dungeon family, cant do dungeon family without doing organized noise. Youd have to do an organized noise movie but highlight outkast because they are the most successful to come from them.
Fr fr
3 Stripes is amazing!🔥🔥🔥 no frontin they did a great job
DOJA BOY SLIM I was pleasantly surprised. I bought it purely as a committed fan. I didn't have any expectations. It's really dope though.
Monica Rance I'm not gonna lie, I was clutching my ass hoping for the best! After the intro, I was able to let go 😂
DOJA BOY SLIM Yeah that album was dope
DOJA BOY SLIM I listen to it EVERYDAY! It has that 90's feel to it! It's smoking 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
DOJA BOY SLIM 😂😂😭😭
Im so glad they're getting ther props while they all still alive! NE Heartbreak
MsEb 75 ..I was thinking the same thing...Give them their roses while they can smell them!
What is Ronnie's diet plan? He looks just like he did when I was a kid. LOL.
MelodyMaker151 that's what I say every single time I see him. Like what is this nigga eatin?!?!?
I had this same thought this morning!!
Leekee-Duh-Boo probably not meat....a lot of the older ladies and gentlemen dont eat meat and just go plant based
Char J aaahhh... well Imma be a wrinkled mf cuz I can smash me a bird.
he's vegan! thats the secret
God is good, they kicked out one of the main guys Bobby Brown and he went on and smashed it with 'My perogative'. Mike was lucky that he seemed to be very bright n business minded so he went on to manage other groups, as a person he is definitely a strong character to be respected. It just goes to show you need different characters to make a group. It is soo sad that the beautiful Ralph Tresvant did not go on to fulfill his potential as a solo artist, he sacrificed for his friends.
I really think the young/older cast of the movie and the real New Edition members should all perform on the 2017 BET awards together . 😭😍 And I would also love to see more parts of the New Edition story! I feel like they have more tea to tell. 😂
yeah, they can do a timeline from the kids to the young adults to the full grown men being the real guys
Yes and it would be great if everyone could tweet it to Bet and/or the New Edition members to make it go viral. I already tweeted it.
Jordan Love yep, make it apart of that Bet experience where they do live shows
I like that idea.
What About It should be on the actual award show.
Mike is so respectful and businesslike! I've always loved him!
Meeee toooo......he was always my fav
The New Edition should be in the Super Bowl halftime show!!!! Long overdue
I agree! They should be in 2023!!!!
i love how respectful they are love these guys!
Sexy Ronnie does not age. I'm glad all of the New Edition members survived all they've been through. They could have chosen to stay with whatever excesses almost killed them, literally, but they didn't. Kudos!
My 15 year old is watching dis movie over and over. She's driving me crazy with questions about the group. I put her on the song "This Ones For Me & You" she's loving it! They have fans of all ages now. New Edition wow!! Y'all go get that new money!!! lol
now all we need is an SWV biopic and we'll be good😁😁😁😁
MISSY SAYING , THIS THAT AND THE OTHER I want to see an Xscape biopic.
They didn't make a strong enough impact for a biopic. Same with SWV. Maybe on TVOne or something. There are alot of older artists that have more interesting stories.
Love SWV...best female R & B group. Was to me a female version of GUY who were my fav male group at the time. Most unique female voice in Coko...besides Brandy... to me anyways.
NotyNoty how old are you? what makes you think you have the authority to say this nonsense??
i'm in my 30's. nothing about my comment was nonsense, just truth. how did swv or xscape change the game? they were good but not groundbreaking.
I would love to see a Debarge family biopic.
great pic!!!!!!!!! needs to happen for real
carlton31174 That one definitely couldn't be on network TV and requires several episodes to tell.
Monica Rance Never say never when it comes to the television/entertainment business haha. Believe me. The only road block would be if the Debarge family wouldnt approve. I can't see why they wouldnt because they revealed so much on their Unsung episode. The reason why the new edition biopic was so epic, was because all 6 members had a hand in the production.
Ron Davis Just write the script around that. Like i said, never say never when it comes to money and hollywood. Its ALL about producing, family cooperation, and the script. They can work around it. As forthcoming as the new edition story was, i'm sure there were incidents that they all were not willing to share.
carlton31174 ohhhhh yes! You know they had a very sad household. I think Unsung did an episode on the DeBarge fam. But yeah, that's one that needs to be told!!
I wanna see the Rick James story.
el scientifico I vote Rick James story!👍👍👍👍
i bet its because your a super freak
+mike king I see wat ya did there
Get Terrance Howard
His rivalry with Prince lmao
I knew Ronnie was my fab for a reason solid with WU TANG...MY FAVS OF ALL TIME..#1NEW EDITION💝RONNIE...#2WuTang
Am i the only one that thinks Mike looks like he could be Yo Gottis older brother?
If we're gonna get a Jodeci story then we have to get the Mary J Blige story just cause of her connection to K-Ci
Alquan true that. Makes more sense them do Boyz II Men
Sean U i agree bro...long as life time doesnt produce it
Curtis Simmons 🙊
ifgodwz1ovus 😂 fr dey fuck up movies
How they met is a story in itself ....the fact that Heavy D signed them after they were outside Uptown Records singing and begging to get inside for a week...the fact they left North Carolina and came to New York broke...the fact that they were on the Strictly Business movie soundtrack like Mary J Blige,,,and she blew up with You Remind Me but they didn't blow up until Forever my Lady...the second single from their debut album was released...I Gotta Love was out for damn near a year with a video and got hardly any airplay...the fact that Al B Sure was brought in to be executive producer but Devante Swing was already a capable producer and songwriter...who plays piano, guitar, and drums....little know fact he traveled to Minneapolis before Jodeci went to New York and he wanted to join Prince's inner circle...he ignored him...Suge Knight became their manager...at one point...Devante was robbed at gun point....Missy Elliot, Timbaland , and Ginuwine all were protégés of Devante...Mr Dalvin dated T Boz...they got jerked by Uptown Records and MCA Records wasn't really looking out for them either....the friendly rivalry with Boyz II Men...copycats like H Town tried to duplicate their sound...there is plenty of material for a movie!
I just want another NE tour! Even though it probably won't happen for awhile since they were just on tour last year with Babyface 😥
I have so much respect for NE. After all that they've been through, not only are they still together as a group, but they're still friends. There are so many groups that started as childhood friends that can't stand each other, and have even split into different versions of their original groups. I wish them continued success.
I love Ronnie 😍 😍
These dudes are super professional
Ricky is very eloquent. Ronnie also. Michael has the swagger from the hood (like Bobby). Bobby is really a nice guy, I spoke to him in private several times. Ralph is classy. They make a great group they are diverse.
Ralph may come across as classy but he really ain't. A friend of mine is his wife's cousin. They lived in New York in the 90's ( 2 years after Johnny joined the group)for a while and Ralph use to beat her ass on the regular. People are not always what they appear to be. Don't let that "sensitivity" shit fool you.
You mean his first wife. With the addiction. You believe her? ok. smh
BBD album is fire foreel , very solid ,been playing it 3 days straight
Rick was such an under rated singer. He didn't have the looks or charisma that Bobby and Ralph had and always got pushed back.
Glad to see they finally getting the paper they deserved for all the work they did as kids
I really loved the movie it was everything I thought it would be. And I will be ordering Three Stripes. I am glad that NE have shared their journey with us the good bad and ugly of it all. Ricky you are brave for sharing your struggles with us. I love and admire you and the guys for opening up your story to us. I am looking forward to the new CD from NE. :)
I'd say Jodeci, but a wutang story would definitely be dope
I'm so happy Ricky didn't let those drugs overcome him!!!
YO WU- TANG FO SHO
Such an awesome interview, and that news from Mike is EXCELLENT!!!😀
I love these guys all over again.
Thank you Ron.. THE WU!!
I really loved the interview, excellent work
I'm so happy New Edition got their story out there. BBD got a new album Three Stripes. It's hot! You get classic and current vibes from the record. And hopefully soon New Edition will releasr a compilation album. I'm a fan since I was a little kid in the early 80s.
I'm definitely buying "Three Stripes" 😏🎶🎤👏
Mrs. Tee Me too. I'm buying tonight.
i really enjoyed this interview...there was a genuineness to it that you don't see often in interviews, she did a great job :-)
I like her as a a radio personality
Grew up listening to these dudes from their first album. Love everything they ever put down, met Mike Bivens a few times... one of the coolest cats you'll ever meet.
Please publish a book of all that interviews they did for making the movie! I would love to read what they told the producers that didn't make it to the movie.
Glad that they came through all that over the years, cause it's not easy. And they blessed us with unbelievable memories growing up. And to this day
I Want a biopic on Public Enemy because this year is their 30th anniversary.
Now you want trouble THEY AINT READY FOR PUBLIC ENEMY. FAN 4 LIFE FROM INDIANAPOLIS.IND
so it sounds like they are doing more or less, a greatest hits album with a new track or 2 at the end. Eventually, hopefully, itll lead to a full length brand NEW NE joint maybe down the road.
boys fight..Brothers fight! and so do sisters and cousins
Love these guys and am so happy for their accolades for the past work but also the current work as well.
loved Loved Loved this interview. Very enlightening. I pray for a new New Edition joint. I'm going to go get the new BBD CD this week. I heard it was 🔥
Meka Meka #It is 🔥🔥. Listened to it for 3 straight hours....!!!
DejaVu- i remember you being on 92.7 the beat in Jacksonville. So proud of you and your success
That is so amazing . The POWERS THAT BE are gonna have them back royalties from songs they never got paid before in the past . This is so beautiful .
good interview loved it!
A new BBD and New Edition album!!! I'm getting both. Thank you!!!
New Edition, those are my boys. BBD, Bobby Brown, all very talented. Top three of all time in my opinion (yes, I'm biased). Grew up with these dudes. Getting paid for Candy Girl...that's what's up. Love these dudes and their story. Ronny, Bobby, Ricky and Mike, if I like the girl, who cares who you like (Ralph, Johnny).
Damn right they better finally get that "candy girl" money!!!!! yaaaasssss
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE AND SUPPORT NEW EDITION!! I GREW UP ON THESE GUYS!! PLUS WE ALL THE SAME AGE...AMEN AND HALLELUJAH...
Ron and Mike are cracking up!
The next story should be Teddy Riley & Guy.
king esseen GREAT ONE!!!!
Joetta Johnson Ikr! I was telling my brother that if the next bio film isn't about someone who has a musical legacy, it's a bad choice. Thanks.
And blackstreet
I wonder wat Ronnie and mike were talking about lol
Bbygirl give me your phone number and let's talk about it

I need a Lil kim biopic .Kicked out pushing drugs for men , biggie, etc .
Angela Carter yeah, even back in the day they never get into her story
Char J her biopic would be so good maybe one day we will get it or at least the book she promised her fans .

Ricky got finer the older he got
