I grew up in the 80's listening to Debarge music 🎶🎶. EL still looks very good - he is sharp!! His voice is still very beautiful. The enemy tried to destroy him & his family but thanks be to God for his grace & mercy!! May the Lord continue to bless EL & all his family!🙏🙏💒🙌💃
He is such a beautiful man inside and out..Love, El Debarge, and whole Debarge family. Very talented, family and man..They are legends in music industry..I hope and pray for his healing and continues strength..
I love you El, love yourself please. God don't make no junk. El no matter what, we have nothing to forgive you for. El you can always get back up, it's never too late. God is not disappointed. God forgives and will always love you.💯❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Love this and so very overjoyed to know EL has accepted LORD JESUS as his Lord and Saviour. The LORD bless and keep you EL and your household. All glory to GOD for our testimonies. Amen.
I'm just seeing this interview in 2023... This was a great interview... loved El's transparency and sense of humor. Not only is he super talented, but he's a beautiful person inside and out... I ❤️ him and wish nothing but the best for him.
After watching this interview again, I'm perplexed by the fact that El is not getting the air play on old school statiisions as he should, even today he is talented in every way possible !!!
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting El and he’s such a beautiful kind person inside and out. So glad he cares about himself to continue to strive for life and success. Continued prayers for you El DeBarge.
"Well, skip you then, you old crackhead!" That's so funny the way he tells it! Cracked Tavis up Love the humility and humor he has. I eat up anything Debarge -related on RU-vid... Great interview!
FOR HIM TO STILL HAVE HIS RANGE..AFTER 20 YEARS OF DRUG ABUSE...his voice should be SHOT TO HELL BY NOW....NUTHIN BUT THE GRACE OF GOD...El has an assignment...
Keep your head up, El. You can do it! There’s tons of people out there, who loves you.. including me.. El DeBarge, always and forever....💕😍.God Bless you! 🙏🏼
OMG, BET gave El Debarge a chance, are you kidding me? The only reason I was interested in watching the BET awards was for El DeBarge. El DeBarge is special, I wish he knew how special he is and how much he's loved.
I look at El and I thank God because I know God works miracles! This man is gorgeous and still has the gift of music. Hadn’t missed a beat. God will preserve the time I’m excited that he acknowledges God as being the deliverer. Much love and ✊🏽 respect. Continue blessings to you and the family continue to go with God El. 🙏🏽 the Debarge Family! #detroitlove 💗
That man can SANG!! Love everything about the DeBarge family! I was sleeping on Chico, but damn! I just finished downloading two of his albums. Gifted family!!
I was so sad when he relapsed during his comeback. There is still a place for this soul with such a magical gift. I hope he will come back to us again. We love you, El.
Jazzzy, 22 years being addicted to drugs is a looong time and trying to stay clean, i’m sure it has been and is a struggle each and every day to stay clean and easy to relapse. I hope he’s doing better now. He stay with the lord for strength and guidance and good positive people around him, because there’s plenty of temptation out here in the world. Praying for you El and your family🙏🏼❤️
April 30, 2023. I'm just now hearing this. This is one powerful, ANOINTED interview!!! Thank. You. JESUS. El DeBarge came through the firey furnace without even the SMELL of smoke oh him! Look. At. God!!!
The Bible says He who is forgiven little loves little... Luke 7:47. When you have sinned a lot and go to God you will see and understand just how much he loves you. Because you feel you have done so much and you can't understand how you are still here. But through God's mercy he spared you to love another day. That's the goodness of God. I pray he realizes he has been called for the work of the Lord. I know this is an old video but everyday for him and his drug addicted family is a day in recovery. May God continue to protect His people.
I sure hope his family is healed of their past hurts and God shines His heavenly light upon them. They have been through enough pain and need a miracle. Lord, help them to reach out to you and wash their sins free. In Jesus name. Amen. ⛪
The Anointing ain’t nothin to play with, it’s Real… I’m so happy he came out of it Thank GOD!!! I remember singing Love me in a Special way at the the Alter while getting Married 38 years ago, he’s been in the game for along time & I Commend him for that , because the Music grind ain’t no joke. A Legend is back 🎼🎶🎶🙏🏽👑🥰
El I'm so glad that God gave you a second chance and how He preserved your body and voice! God brought you OUT! Blessed be His Name! Love you El. Be blessed! The Flower 🌹
3:40 I think Tavis is trying to discreetly say that Prince would rather give the spotlight to El than to perform. Prince had great respect for other artists.
My Fave! El is A living legend amongst us! This album Second Chance, my oh my! The vocals!!!💯💯💛💛💛💛. God continue to preserve and watch over my dearest El!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 #darkgableforever
EL through it all you are blessed hold on to it and enjoy , proud of you also . Look at you God has been good to you also , enjoy seeing you on Travis Smiley , enjoyed you both
I appreciate those two words at 12:35, "..joyful, exceedingly" El DeBarge music has been in my life since I've listen to their first album and I'm so inspired by his life story, the meaning behind his "Second Chance" song. Once the Father in Heaven's in your life you're set, no man can pluck you up out of His Divine Hands. You were made for His purpose and plan as all of us are. The Father stepped into the dealers to stand up for you, how beautiful is this testimony El, thank you for being you. Lovely Voice is back
To me, the Tavis Smiley show was a great loss to television when it had to be canceled because of his alleged sexual relations. I loved the camaraderie between him and his guests.
I wish they hadn't canceled the program. I, too, enjoyed his interviewing skills with his guests. Never heard if the sexual allegations were true or not. So many men lost their careers over it. Not worth sexually assaulting a woman and lose everything. What a shame.
