Klymaxx is legendary!!! Brings back good old '80s memories!

It is very sad that a group of all talented young women could not hold on and stay together and stay focused as ONE. They all complimented each other. I love them💯💕🏆 "I MISS YOU" KLYMAXX😘

I loved Klymaxx......my little 4 years old self singing I Miss You and I'd Still Say Yes....I still love these songs.

I was a big fan of Klymaxx.

😊 My momma put me on them!!!! 😁 can see us NOW they made Our time together Extra special We would be dancing ALL around the house!!! 🤭 Thanks Klymaxx 🙋🏾‍♀️

I saw Klymaxx in concert in my hometown in high school; they were AWESOME!!!

Great moment in history to hear their songs back in the day. Their hits will continue to live on!

"I miss you" and "divas need love too" are my favs

Thanks for sharing the video. #KLYMAXX forever. Joyce Irby was/is my favorite. She, Bernadette and COOLEY are still performing separately. Lorena, Lynn and Robbin are good...living life and doing their own things unrelated to music.

The way Klymaxx literally came apart at the seams is so tragic. They couldn't see the potential they had if they stayed together??? It makes me respect EWF, Stones, and a few other acts that have stood the test of time as a group for decades. When you reach worldwide success the egos can go through the roof

If you watch this series _Unsung,_ you will notice a similar pattern with these funk bands. Business people start whispering in each member's ear: "you can be bigger if you go solo." What they really mean is "I can get a bigger slice of _your_ pie if you go solo." It's not so surprising. Music money can be fickle, especially when split six ways…

@crnkmnky exactly i've watch a lot of unsung show and you know how it's going to end.

I STILL LOVE this group. They are still the baddest female group❤️❤️❤️

Listen, I love them! My favorite song is “Say Yes”, this is my cleaning house song, over and over again…🎶 (yall see what I did with that last line, lol)

RECIPE FOR ALL AN GIRL BAND: 1. Women who have been taught their values since they were little girls. 2. Women who were taught since they were little girls to respect other women 3. Women who see the value in other women, and know how to move past simple disagreements 4. Women who understand that each woman brings something different BUT necessary to the table 5. Women who understand they have no need to be jealous/envious because they’ve been taught to be at peace in their own lanes. 6. Women who know that sleeping with record producer/manager is taboo 7. Women who do not allow outsiders to tell an individual, “you’re the star of the group you should leave the others and go solo.“

WOW 👏 I was about 15 when 🤔 they came out. They were totally Badazz and that Era consisted of Klymaxx, the MaryJane Girls, Vanity, Appalonia 6, they were Awesome.

Klymaxx and Madame X were so sophisticated and underrated.

Meeting in the Ladies Room & Man Size Love are my favorite Klymaxx songs

🎤Don’t slap me, cuz I’m not in the mood

Klymaxx is so classic!!! I wasn't even born when they came out. I was maybe 2 years old when I Miss You debuted. But my parents always played their music so I'm VERY familiar with their music!!! 💯 ❤

Teddy Riley sound was starting with that New Jack Swang. Everyone including MJ from early to mid 80's had to reconsider there music.

Fenderella sounds like a young Michael Jackson

Let's see a vid about OAKTOWN 357, another female 80's short lived Mc Hammer spin off.

Oh I loved them.. I wish they get some counseling or life coaching and work it out. I would love to see them in concert.

I loved this group they had so much talent/they .were an all girl band that sanged /played their own instruments

Joyce Irby do sounds a lot like Michael Jackson

The Men All Pause was so Bad Ass at the time It still sounds good to me today 🔥🎤

In the 80s I became fierce because of the freedoms I found in this group Klymaxx and people like Shiela E. They are awesome and paid the price but they need to know how important their contributions to music and the Blqck community are… I’m 63 now and still fierce! And I don’t plan to quit…..I’m sure you ladies can outcast these groups today…. I WILL FOREVER LOVE YOU🥰 THANK YOU✌🏽♥️😇🙏🏾🩸🪶✝️💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐✌🏽

My fave girl group of all time. And all talented. When egos get in the way it is heartbreaking but if they could just all love on each other like they really did in the beginning then I think would be a good thing to help them heal.

I missed this group I wish they had stayed together. They were amazing too me

Unfinished Business... Name of next album😂

Lorraine Stewart had that baby face. Love it.

One of my favorite songs is called Good Love

I think she was NOT trying to steal it. To be fair, they ALL left and she was one of the ones that was stuck, left holding the bag. I mean, what else do you want. It sounds like they were mad or upset that they didn't think of it. But like she said, it can be 6 Klymaxx groups and they can all get paid...I don't get why and what the root of it was. THEY LEFT!

Hey Fam, I had a friend named Diva that played with y'all, she played any instrument from DC who was an excellent drummer that at times would come to my rehearsals and sit in on the drums. She built VW engines and had the personality of an Angel;n with that being said what bis she doing these days?

Aren't they in their 60s and 70s? 🧐

I couldn't help but know Klymaxx. My mother would play that damn album over and over like it was an MJ record. It would drive my stepdad up the wall hearing his son sing those songs. They made good music. Simple fact was though they were outdated even at their peak. All the crooner type singers and live bands were dead by the late 80s. Hip-hop and pop boybands were the new in-thing. The groups or solos that survived were the ones that embraced hip-hop or more gritty music. Hell even Aerosmith (Tyler/Perry) reluctantly did the WTW crossover but it turned out to be the best move they made in decades. White acts can afford not to evolved. They can make a record and live in mansions coasting albums they did decades ago. Black acts and black-adjacent ones have to evolve to keep up with younger crowds. Even Prince hated it but he eventually took on a more modern sound. Nowadays, yes there are some 90s/early 2Ks era that are getting by off their old music but not enough for me to say 'it's a rule not an exception". I guess what I'm saying is even without them falling out they'd been dead in the water anyway so they're mad each other over nothing really. It's like two horse and buggy business partners being mad at each other after the automobile took over. Klymaxx was still making music for my momma but even my momma, their core fanbase, had moved onto liking our music. Remember the good times, albeit brief, that you had.
