These young men were so mature and well spoken. I wish I could be transported back to the 80's when class and elegance was in style. I got stuck in my 20's with the ratchet, 'turn up' generation. :(
i feel this comment on a spiritual level! men/boys were very mature and well spoken back then, there's nothing like an intelligent man. couldn't have said it better!
I feel this so much I said the same thing my spirit/heart doesn’t feel I belong here it belongs back then everything was soulful and more stylish and a beautiful message within music and you can tell artist took their time to create a masterpiece 🙏🏽 I’m happy videos exist so we can get a taste of what was happening during those times
he was a visionary and spoke their longevity into flourishing... he was most definitely wise beyond his years... I just love me some Ralph... ❤😚😚😚😍😍😍❤❤❤
This is the one and only celebrity crush I have ever had in my entire life... I'm 36 and every time I hear this man speak... it just melts me... love me some Rizzo!
Wow. Did anyone else's heart just skip a beat like mine did during that short clip at the beginning, when Ralph did that little ... "thing" with his hips? It was, actually, his *whole* body language. The man just exudes sexiness, confidence, class, etc. etc. Just naturally gifted, as with all the New Edition members. I just realized it's been 28 years ?!?!?! Yes, they're STILL going strong ... what a blessing! I can't wait to see them New Year's Eve in Detroit! New Edition 4-EVER!!
I believe that Ralph got the short end of the stick out of everyone in the group.... he was so commented to this group, and when he wanted to go solo they was against him... but they all had better solo careers over him..... and he was the most talented!!!! so not fair
Joshua Turner Agreed, but think about this...without Ralph, NE wouldn't have been what it became or what it is today. Ralph is the star of NE and that is why he works so hard to give the audience the best performance. Even in the live tour shows, he's the one dancing and singing better than all the rest. He gives you everything on stage, all the swagger, all the energy. You can look at any video and your eye always goes to Ralph not because he's the lead but because he's overall the best performer in the group. He's still the full package of all the guys, even Bobby can no longer sing like he used to, but Ralph can. Johnny can sing, but he's fat and can't dance. Mike can rap, but looks crazy dancing in his suits now and he can't sing like Ralph. Ronnie can dance but he can't sing. Ricky can sing and dance, but not as well as Ralph and he's not as good looking. So again Ralph IS THE STAR OF NEW EDITION but never behaved like the star.
Karma... this always happens... a group breaks up or the lead goes solo and then it takes them years later to understand that people love EVERYONE in the group.. not just one person.
Ralph T. is the ride and die of New Edition. He has been the main lead singer from the beginning. They brought in Johnnie Gill but Ralph T. still sang lead on a lot of their songs. He is the voice of N.E. The other guys are talented but they are not the full package, singer, dancer, swagger, looks, confidence and maturity. NE4lLIFE but love Ralph T. to infinity.
Girl tell me about it. His voice is sooo soothing. I listen to Ralph's radio show "Inside The Ride" just to hear him speak... I wish I was around to grow up with New Edition, but thankfully I learned about them years ago and have been a big fan ever since
Honey, YESSSSS!!! Every time I see this man, Ralph that is, my heart, mind and everything skips, flutters etc....OMW....I have been in love w/Ralph from the beginning. Ralph will 4ever be my 'baby daddy!' LOL Absolutely love me some Ralph/Rizzo!!!!!! whewwwww
This group is a gift from God.Boston has so much unsung unsigned talent that nds 2 b discovered thank goodness New Edition was i jst wish they ddnt have 2 had gone thru so much heartache and mistrust from thier producer @ the time but look at their life these gentlemen have a story 2 tell I pray 4 their prosperity wealth and happiness cause they so deserve it they broke barriers and records they made history.
Ralph loves New Edition. He never really wanted to do that solo thing. And I think he took it really personally when the other cats would eff around and not take it seriously. I think NE still has another epic album in them. They need to hurry up and do it.
im bouta start crying. i used to have this original interview taped in full off old 1988 BET. Had it from my cousins for 16 years until my locker was robbed in early 2016. its an anazing interview Ralph and Mike speak the most but its a really lengthy overall detailed piece. Disgusted i dont have it smh
These guys here still holding it down after over 30 years in the business. Always been a Bobby girl, since '83, but definitely love all of them. This my group. NE4Life.
Look at God!!! he asked and he recieved, the power of words and I love them for the chemistry, for sharing, for the talent and also for the duration of the business #nonselfish #classic WE LOVE NEW EDITION AND LOOK FORWARD TO THE FUTURE
Such a chill, humble dude! I think ALL the NE members were highly talented and should've been given more time to shine as individuals in the group. Maybe they wouldn't have felt the need to break up so early if they had more room to grow.
New Edition is the epitome of singing groups. They set the tone for the young groups behind them. Very talented group. Hope they are coming out with something soon. Love them boys.....
this series of videos is incredible. it's so great to see the guys speak so nicely about each other. they have a true brotherhood. I love them to death, Bobby Brown included. for them to still be going strong after 30+ is a true blessing. they're truly amazing. living legends ❤️
the new movie that came out really highlighted that brotherhood; No matter what has gone on throughout the years, they deep down truly care about one another - and continue
Who knew that they would set the 90s on fire as solo artists. Then eight years later they will make in my personal opinion the greatest new edition album ever. Home again was the bomb. Every song on that album was fire 🔥. Now 40 years later. These guys are older and still selling out shows. All of this success with no hit record or album in 20 years. Some of these guys are grandparents. These guys are hitting into their 60s in a few more years and still going strong.
We’re here in 2024 and these cats are still performing and bigger than ever! They’re holding residencies in Las Vegas and touring cities far and wide as well as performing on major platforms like the Tom Joyner cruises by popular demand with all six members. This accolade is incredible to achieve but they’re doing it. WAY 2 GO NE! 💙💙💙💙💙💙
I remember this footage and Rizzo is the talent in NE. He carried that group and still does. He is very dedicated to the group and the other members should be glad that they are a part of NE. From young he had the talent and the mind set for this. Rizz u have perfected ur craft. Love u. Come to Charlotte NC. We would love to c u musical genius.
I have this whole interview recorded from back in the day!!! Absolutely love me some New Edition! They are the best, hands down!!! I am totally a NE girl! NE 4 LIFE baby!!!!
crazy how many NE vids were uploaded years ago, just because so many people have always loved NE; or like me, grew up on NE --- and now, the payoff on those VIEWS - views goin through the roof since that movie dropped and took everyone back; while introducing New Generations to what so many of us have always loved.
Always been a fan of Ralph. He always resonated with me as a singer and how he came off as a performer. After seeing the 3 part series. His loyalty to his friends and the dream was admirable.
they always knew ralph was naturally bigger than the group just never wanted him to explore that... shame cause if hes all they said its selfish cause he'd given all he had to the group since day 1
