Boys II Men: Its Almost Like They Never Existed

[lilaznwoo]

i agree

a couple more albums that i forgot to mention that i've enjoyed over the last few years have been from mint condition. those guys are legends in my book

of course everybody know all their earlier albums but their more recent music is really good too; all 3 of their of their last 3 albums; "e-life", "7".... and "at the speed of life" are all really good albums. those guys are masters at their craft. they the most underrated r&b group of the 90's to me

these guys are so underrated it ain't even funny

each of these songs below are from each of the 3 albums "e-life", "7...." and "at the speed of life" in order of how i listed each album too

smooth as hell



at "cole" from martin in this 1st music video. but the music though

All these songs would have been hits in the 90's

 

[I love Latina women]

All these songs would have been hits in the 90's

yup but in the 2000s the general assumption was that "everybody" (i'm usin' that word loosely) wanted to hear rhythm and bullshyt and not rhythm and blues

 

[ArchStanton]

They had too many young white girls falling in love with them. I knew quite a few. Made them cook up the Backstreet Boys and so forth to get them on to something different.

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

guaranteed puzzy getter in the 90's

So much young hunchin and tongue kissin off this.................

 

[LV Koopa]

GOAT level RnB group. Them, 112, and Jodeci were the ish back then.

I remember this video used to rotate heavy on MTV back then. So many great songs

 

[Monster]

but why

i have no cllue about the histroy of boys 2 men,

but you just have to assume when someone falls off too hard

it's blacballing

i'm just taling about my ass like all coli posters.

 

[klutch2381]

The harmony they had was crazy.

 

[jwonder]

I always thought they were a little too corny. I did like a few songs. I think Motown Philly and It's So Hard remake was about it for me. I more into Jodeci and R Kelly back in those days.

What about Color Me Badd though

 

[rantanamo]

LOL @ words like corny being thrown around. We're talking about R&B, not rap. Singing nice songs to ladies is a good thing. The funny thing is, Jodeci was singing about raising families too. They just dressed more hip-hop and acted like they were more smoove. What we're saying is, we fell for the fake, but shyt on the technically proficient group from Philly that was beloved world-wide because they weren't hood enough. Its a black thang I guess.

 

[Wild self]

I listen to alot of old-school r&b type stations when i can, and i NEVER hear their music. They got classics. Like, forreal i cant remember the last time i heard a Boys II Men song on the radio. Its almost like they never happened

They did that to Public Enemy as well in Hip-Hop. Erase all the positive and talented black artists and flood the radio with trash.

 

[Wild self]

They did songs about love in a traditional way

Jodeci came along and everybody jumped on that wave so now all R& B is soft core rap and all the songs are about hooking up
And fukking

There's no families just baby mommas & dudes (nikkas ain't even baby daddies no more)
If you can't play it in a club then these kids now ain't trying to hear it

ReaL R&B died in like '03- '05

They fukked our black artists that are positive and reduced us as baby mama's and baby daddy's.

 

[James Dean]

Damn.

Sucks for some of yall. They still get some play round here.

Although, these days, radio is not all that anymore. That Aux cord/USB life is the move these days. Play all the Boys II Men you want

 

[MVike28]

Its Monday morning im at my desk and I damn near

 

[NormanConnors]

The ONLY song I ever liked from them

Wow

I'm not going to hate though

 

[MVike28]

When Usher did that house edm turn is when i just said fukk it im out
