The "Dont Be Cruel" version of Bobby Brown was basically a force of nature, people seem to forget. The best New Jack Swing artist ever, hands down...

Bobby has great stage presence!

I remember when my cousin kesha played this track like 10 times straight singing every word in a dam frenzy. Bobby brown is a living legend nuff said.

That little girl is never going to forget that moment BB sang to her!

Bobby killed it, bobby was the man in the day.

Favorite Bobby Brown song ever! Personally, I love his music. I've been reading some of the comments and I have to say....I'm shocked. I've never seen so many perfect people in the world that you can look down on a man that is just as human as you. Sure Bobby has made some mistakes, and you haven't? Btw, I didn't know any of you knew him personally enough that you would know for sure that he was a bad person. It shouldn't matter what he did. We came here for the music. I know I did. If you came here to bash him, then you got too much time on your hands and needs to finds some friends or a new hobby.

I don't give a darn what is said negatively about this man right here.. Bobby Brown was the shit back then. He's only human and ain't the only one to have gone thru and experienced all the negative things he's done in his life. He is and forever will be a part of history and he deserves to be honored as such. It's now 2018 he sounds and looks great. #NewEditionfan4life

Bobby at his best!

I love this song and Bobby Brown was the man back in the day

This sounded great. Backgrounds was on point

Back in the good ol' days with Bobby & Arsenio...good times🎶

YOU DID MAKE A VAILD POINT ON THAT POINT. IN 1991 THE BOBBY ALBUM WAS SUCESSFUL AND VERY HUGE LIKE DONT BE CRUEL AND THEN EVERYTHING STOP AND HE BECOME MR, WHITNEY HOUSTON ON TOUR WITH HER BECAME A NEW DAD AND NORE MORE MUSIC THEN IN 1997 THAT ALBU FLOP AND HE NEVER RECOVERED FROM THE MISTAKE AND HE DID IT FOR WHITNEY. BUT WHAT I DO LIKE ABOTH BEY AND JAY IS THAT EVEN BOTH THEY BOTH SUPERSTARS THEY DO THEY OWN THING MOVIES ALBUMS AND MORE AND DONT PUT EACH OTHER IN THE SHADOWS

Brooklyn Panther I know this comment is old but it's so 💯💯💯! I totally agree and I understand bobby's resentment! Bobby gave it all up for Whitney! Honestly,whitney was toxic for him. Look at his marriage with Whitney and his marriage now. Whitney brought out his worst along with her own demons. She was happy having him as just Whitney's husband instead BOBBY BROWN,the R n B King! He also tried to get clean several times with Whitney and always relapsed because she continued to abuse drugs. His new wife is great for him because she encouraged him to be his best and follow his dreams. Since he remarried he started back touring,stayed clean,started new businesses and overall enjoying life. It's sad what happened to Bobbi Cristina though! That divorce from Whitney was the best thing for him because he took charge of his life back and Whitney is 6 ft deep and died with cocaine in her system...sad!

Starlet​ I disagree.. Whitney gave it up for Bobby also .. when it came to the late 90s and the early 2000's , His Marriage now is horrible and just not right , the only reason people say I like his relationship now is because he's not out there being a bad boy that he is and cheating and etc .. But when he was together with Whitney he had cheated on her with the woman who he is married to now .. New Edition can tell you that .. It's great that she encourages him .. but you don't know what happens behind closed doors , she's maybe a rude person but when someone gets around her she's nice .. Bobby did not stay clean since his new life .. Bobby just got out of Rehab during the time Bobbi Kristina was in the coma .. Yes! The divorce was a woosah thing for him but I don't think it wasn't .. Bobby didn't have anything! Without Whitney , the man had no money for sake and was sleeping in other people's couches in cars and Bobby was homeless for a while.. Bobby didn't even want to divorce Whitney ..she divorced him... He's just now taking charge of his life but he could have when he was together with Whitney .. Whitney has died due to hear failure with cocaine in her system and medications that she used to keep calm especially for anxiety .. You can't blame Whitney for what she did in there relationship .. he was right there during worse

Bobby kilt it People forget Bobby was a STAR he did that " yall know what time it is" he been said that "88" his fashion forward style in was fenomenon at that time an still today let along his stage presence an dance skills he did that he set the mark for that he did He was that #1 deal ok back then but thats how legends are born an you are ready know being an original hood nic thats gonna get in it an that hollywood gonna get into it an boom what can you say period Bobby Brown is our on earth legendary super star boom give credit where credit due #thisus

This song popped into my head just now....So glad to have KZread, where you can just type in most song titles and get a video. I'm pretty sure my thoughts were inspired by last week's The New Edition Story, which was amazing!!!!!

Bobby B was that guy! Can't wait to see the Bobby Brown Story on BET!

NE is dope. They all did well on their own and ass a group, like voltron or the power ranger. Bobby is like the green ranger. Nobody wanted him to shine. Then he showed out. Singing rapping dancing. Really dope

Classic!!!..i was a kid and i looked up to Bobby...watched Arsenio every night...this was the one!!!!

He really is a good soul.

I was surprised when he left New edition to go solo, because ralph was the lead singer and I didn't know if the rest could sing -- but he did pretty well for himself.

WOW ! Lot've negative feedback on Bobby B, He's doing much better in 2012 ! He's shown his mature side right after Whitney's Death ! He may not be able change the past but he's Controling his Future ! Plus he's a Icon from the 80-90's ! You can say what u Want ! No 1's PERFECT ! But he still part of Music History wheather u Like it or Not ! And our music back then is NOT DIFFERENT from today's MUSIC ! You're SAMPLING everything we listened to back in the day so PLEASE MAKE UR OWN MUSIC ! TYVM !
