Remember This Hella Tense Video Soul Interview? | The New Edition Story 

Her interviewing created the tension. She was addressing them as separate artist rather than just focusing on them as a group.

You know its a wild interview when Bobby is the most chill lmaoooo

Bobby's back there cracking up. I guess he said, "for once, I am not in the hot seat!!" 😂

Ralph really looked out for everyone. Real homie that was all about Us instead of I

That dude from Empire was spot-on Micheal Bivens. BET did their thing.

Her interview was wrong from the start. She tried to focus on why they all separated. Ralph was right. It was supposed to be a NE interview.

Just re-watched The New Edition Story and came across this interview. And wow! Every single actor cast in the Biopic was SPOT ON. Woody McClain, Luke James, Keith Powers,Bryshere 'Yazz' Gray, Elijah Kelley & Algee Smith literally embodied New Edition and they did it so well👏🏽🔥🔥

Any tension in this Interview was from the terrible interviewing. The guys were cool.

Bobby Never been this quiet in his life.

Ralph really was pushing NE I kinda felt bad for him, he was all for NE even when they tried to get him to go solo earlier he was like I'm not doing unless we a group ! true team player.

Love how Bobby and Johnny just sat back and watched the train wreck 😂😂

nobody saw bell biv devoe coming, but they came together and ate

Bobby tap Johnny like "I do cocaine and got a 4x platinum album. These niggas all sober and can't get through a simple interview without problems"

Mentally I'm stuck in the 1990's....🤔

Bobby saved that interview by playing with Michael's shirt sensors 😂

Lmbo when she said “Johnny was doing his little thang” so disrespectful 😂😂

Ralph's barber could be a surgeon, those lines were precise.

Donnie Simpson picked the wrong day to call out 🤦‍♀️

Ralph was hurt because he could've went solo a long time before and he wanted his friends with him! Aw

Ralph's a peacemaker who looks out for everyone. Love u man

BET needs to do a Michael Jackson Biopic. They make better biopic's than Lifetime.

5:30 when Bobby nudges Johnny, he's like "It's about to go down." lol

this is the most quiet I've seen Bobby

Ralph got one of the coldest high top fades I've ever seen lol

Michael Bivins is a straight-out businessman of the group. He knows how to discover and nurture great talents like Boyz II Men and Another Bad Creation.

Ralph mad as hell. He pushing NE hard and nobody else is trying to

Everyone: *fighting and yelling at each other* Bobby: *playing with Mike’s clothes* Johnny: 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃

Tell me why Bobby was playing with Michael's anti theft sensors on his jacket🤣😭

bet did good re- creating this scene. Damn!

Ralph was feeling some type of way when she asked about bbd💀

Ralph was the definition of nice guys finish last

Most people don't know that New Edition paved the way for the #1, and #2 biggest Hip-Hop/R&B groups of the 90s. Boyz II Men and TLC. Michael Bivins discovered Boyz II Men, he also met Lisa Lopes in a club in Atlanta. It was there that he christened her "Left Eye," because her left eye was more slanted then her right. Also, BBD was the inspiration for TLC. The ladies didn't want to sound like every other female R&B group in tight clothes, singing break up ballads. So they took their inspiration for BBD, the New Jack Swing sound, their image, TLC just made it brighter, baggier, and put condoms on it. Also to this day, TLC will always say BBD was, is their biggest inspiration. NEW EDITION is the foundation for what became the most successful R&B group of all Time, and The Best Selling Female Group of All Time. NE did that!!!!

Johnny Gill is a humble guy.

I can just feel the tension between Mike and Ralph...

Ricky Bell took full advantage of someone speaking to him for a change!😂😂😂🤣

"Our music is mentally hip hop, smoothed out, on the R&B tip with a pop feel appeal to it!" "Translation?"

RALPH is the definition of LOYAL ! Wasn't for him, they wouldn't of been....Maurice Starr seen the next Michael Jackson, but he couldn't leave his brothers

Before social media no one even knew they were beefing like that...Now beef overshadows music.

The new edition story was so well put together from every move, outfit, word for word the real actual stuff is crazy !

I sure as hell hope she didn't do any more interviews after this..... she's all over the place.

That look and clenched fist at 7:06 says a thousand words

Bobby low key laughing through the Ralph and Mike awkwardness "oh boy..." 😂😂

she's the one that messed the interview up

Back when BET was black. Who remembers Rap City and the Mayor Chris Thomas.

yo this shit is more hilarious than the movie made it seem 😂😂

Am I the only person thinking...if BET has these episodes of Video Soul in a vault, can't they air throwback episodes on BET or Centric for us 80s babies who loved and miss Video Soul?

Ralph didn’t want to discuss the separate careers, he wanted to focus on the “ New “ New Edition they were trying to promote. He was in his feelings LOL but they were all there repping their own individual styles and clearly had huge successes, with the exception of Ralph ( who unfortunately did not have the same solo success) I think he just wanted to get back New Edition business because that was the true catalyst for all the other careers in the first place.

After watching the movie, I come back to this. The movie was on point. Ralph was dedicated to the group 100%. Glad they're performing again together as the total package! All of them are legends! The greats! They come the L.A. I'm there! My kids know all there songs! As a group and as solo artist! They are all great in their on right. Love them! FanFoLife!

I like how Bobby and Johnny looked at each other and shook their heads at the others' pettiness.

5:30 Bobby looks at Johnny like "Here We Go"

Bobby: “Oh Boy” 😂😂😂

7:37 bobby's playing with Mike's Jacket had me dying😂😂😂

Bobby twirling them damn security tags. ...Hilarious!

I See The Tension Between Mike And Ralph Forreal 😂😂

Bobby is getting a kick out this interview unbothered because for once tension isn’t between him and group🤣🤣 especially when Ralph talked about Ricky and Ronnie not holding lead song positions and his adhd playing with those tags too funny🙌🏾🤣🤣 Bobby back there cracking up laughing at them

4:37 back when beepers were popping and considered as “portable telephones” !

No group ever put together was perfect! These cats created their own lane and that's what's cool about them the most!

Besides the tension between Mike and Ralph, I love their interaction here. Like real brothers. Bobby keeps annoying Mike 😂😂It's hilarious. I hope they all remain close forever. So much history

Greatest Group Ever Ronnie, Johnny, Bobby ,Rick, Mike, Ralph, the longevity , their solo success make them the greatest six members of one group of all time, NE my Brothers

Gotta love the 90's, man! The music and the fashion was all dat.. and a bag of chips!!

bout time.. the quailty on all the other versions was trash

Why was Bobby feeling Mike Biv up tho 😂

Man that biopic was SPOT ON.

Ralp was a real loyal dude straight out the gate and even going into his solo thing. Even in his videos he had members getting down with him. I didn't feel any tension just homies shooting the breeze.

Ralph's face turned to stone, clenched his fist; He's ready for some Kung Fu fighting!

“So Ralph you sit tight...” The look on his face...

The lady doing the interview irritated my soul🙄 I was always team Ralph 🥰

Bobbie straight geeking this whole interview 😂😂

he said his beeper is like his portable telephone lol fast forward to now we have smart phones, text messaging, video chat/face time... technology

From what I can see here, only Ralph seemed annoyed. The rest of them were cool, and Bobby was high.

5:01 It was a BBD question !! Ralph's face expression lol

Can clearly see that Ralph is pretty much heated over the fact that his success paled in comparisons to the other members individual splintered acts. The problem with Ralph's career is the simple fact that he was holding on to an era of R&B that had quickly transformed by the release of his solo project. The other members had come out with their albums earlier in the year and were able to capitalize on their niche groups during a period of R&B and hip hop transformation, leaving Ralph with scraps. Ralph's image was tied to New Edition with it's gentlemanly suave R&B crooner type which was already declining when his first album dropped in the latter half of 1990. By the time Ralph's second album would surface in 94, there would be a diametrical shift in the image that appealed to fans. The population had already shifted from the smooth R&B crooner type to the bad boy, hip hop edgy image. That's why groups like After 7, Boyz II Men and artists like Tevin Campbell were on the decline during this transitional period (although Tevin's decline was mostly in-part due to Usher surfacing in the industry). Nevertheless, timing was against Ralph at every step of his solo career. Had he went Solo prior to Bobby or even dropped his album before other members have, his career may have looked completely different considering he was the one viewed as the second Michael Jackson.

Ralph T looked like an r&b version of Tupac

Ralph is too humble.

@5:30-5:31 or so, the elbow Bobby gave Johnny. It’s as if to say “Biv was the reason I left and years later it’s the same Biv crying to get it done his way.”

OH WOW!! I remember this interview! Bobby Brown lol in the back,Ralph being pissed the whole time, and the pretty to look at interviewer in waaay over her head.

Ronnie killed me by going to the front to showcase his outfit.

All their egos were just out of control during this period.

New Edition is the only legitimate Brotherhood in music you feel the vibe that they're more than just bandmates you feel that they like family they see each other like family and it's genuine. If you go back and watch old Bobby Brown solo interviews old Ralph Tresvant solo interviews even some old Johnny Gill solo interviews they don't seem happy they don't seem content but then when you see interviews where you got these brothers together it's like they come alive it's like they see the world like they can accomplish anything they feed off of one another that's why you got to love New Edition collectively you have to love these brothers

4:36 you consider your Beeper a portable telephone 😂😂 25 years later: what is a beeper?

definitely some tension between Ralph and BBD 😳

7:06 mark..... see the tension in Ralph's face though?? Ouch!! Still my guy though. RIZZ!!

Bobby like y’all to tensed up right now let me bother y’all so y’all loosen up 😂😂

Sherri Carter and ol’ green eyed Donnie Simpson. Those were the days. And Rachel from Caribbean Rhythms👙 ...😍my lord!

new edition seemed fine. i think sherry carter was the one creating the tension because of her questions. thats what it was.

You can see the tension between Mike and Ralph it's sad that it seemed like their brotherhood was broken because of their egos but at the end of the day you can see how much Ralph sacrificed and how much love he had for New Edition even when the others didn't see if Ralph chose that solo shit when the producer asked there would be no BBD or Bobby just saying what if Ralph had chose his offer🤷🏾‍♀️

I remember watching this video like yesterday. I watched this interview the day it aired!!

I’ve seen The New Edition a million times, and actually remember seeing this interview when it came on... they nailed it! Sheri had no control and preparation. They needed Donnie for this interview, but then maybe it wouldn’t have been as classic with the shenanigans 😩😂😭

on the movie they did so good reenacting this awkward ass scene......

Ronnie & Mike's outfits were a look! I love their style.

Ralph threw some shad when he said nobody really looked at Ronnie and Ricky and them as somebody who could do a lead singing role.

Can we all just take a min and take in how good it felt when a artist said go get the album and we went to the music store and got the album to add to our dope azz collection of bomb azz music💯🤎🌹🤗🤟🏾

Ralph seemingly gave a very unselfish answer as to how and why the guys were doing their own separate thing. BBD was really feeling themselves right here. It was quite surprising how Johnny and Bobby didn't interject. I think Ralph was trying to bring a neutral focus to the interview but them being the age they were and being full on their success BBD were being haughty. I'm glad it all worked out despite attitudes and personalities. #NE4Life

7:06 You okay there Ralph?💀💀💀 8:08 Ricky had me crying 😂😂

My guys always! I love how Ricky started grooving when they played “I Thought It Was Me”♥️🎵

The way Bobby was messing with Mike😂😂

interviewer sucked. she should have focused on NE first then each one to talk about their own thing towards the end. bobby, johnny, ralph then bbd. she had no control.

Ralph is such a sweetheart..... He deserved so much more for all his sacrifices ❤️❤️😘

That host was mad annoying... she reminded me Anne Marie Johnson from in living color ....and whyyyyyyy does Michael bivins have an alarm sensor on his arm 😩😩😩

Bobby over there playing with tassels is hilarious lol
