Babyface is just so authentic, warm and humble. I love his personality and attitude. Last but not least he is a genius.

Many artists would have felt threatened by having a Kevon in the family. Kudos to Face for giving Melvin and Kevon a platform to express themselves.

Really admire Babyface! Such a professional!

Timeless is a understatement for what Babyface produces. I am still listening to his songs from over 30 years ago. He is our Sam Cooke.

What a classy man Babyface is. His understanding of the music trends is amazing. When it comes to the music industry, Babyface has walked the walk. I do not detect any bullshit coming from him.

I love Babyface. He seems so calming.

One of the best song writer of all time. Also a fantastic singer.

The LEGENDARYYYYYY Kenneth Babyface Edmonds!!! 💚💚💚

He is just COOL....a soft spoken, humble, MONSTER musician/producer. Impossible to not like him. 💎💎💎💎💎

Babyface you are a living breathing musical genius and I love the honesty in this interview as well. Geniuses are usually very shy and some very insecure because they are perfectionist at the heart of it, and they are also their own worst critics and that is why they create magic. Barbara Streistand is also on another level as well. Babyface should have a music award dedicated in his name for those who are exceptional in the musical arts. When are we getting a documentary on your life? Do it while you are still alive so no one else tell your story.

Very good interview, finally going to see this musical Genius at Cssino O L G Friday JLY26 i have all his Albums and CD’s when he was with The Deele and until now I listen to him a lot with Michael Jackson music 🎶

Such a fascinating look into the Man who created the musical landscape of our Lives from 1989-Today…Epic Genius @babyface♥️

Amazing❤Songwriter❤Seen Babyface 3 Times in Concert

This interview has to go down as one of the greatest interviews of "Kenneth Babyface Edmonds". Toure is an exceptional interviewer who interviewed a genius as if it was a conversation, and delivered a masterclass of questions for a classic episode. I thought I had heard most of the singer songwriters story, However Toure manages to pull out more knowledge and understanding not forgetting the wisdom in his profession, that is from one of the greatest and most prolific songwriters of our time. This interview is pure class. Thank you.🎉🎉

Stating that Sir Paul McCartney,Jam and Lewis and Stevie Wonder were his greatest influences is definitely why they inspired Babyface into a awesomely unique songwriter as well a top notch artist too. Definitely in my top five favorite artists.

For the late Gen X, Babyface is the soundtrack to our lives. Thank you for all the great music and what is to come. 🥰

Love this man...he's very thoughtful when he responds and humble. Legendary genius

❤❤❤ Babyface!!!

Bob Dylan once said Smokey Robinson is the greatest poet ever!

I have LOVED Babyface from my first listen! He hit one of his famous sideway notes and I fell in love! He's awesome!! Loved this interview!❤

Not them watching "All My Children" during the day😂

Toure you are a special kind of talent. I've learned more about baby face in this interview than seeing him in all others put together. This is definitely a good platform for your natural expertise. And I believe that you can definitely be at the top of the mountain of Grios of celebrity entertainment in all areas you wish to interview. Your reputation is stellar in the eyes of those who know you. Your subs should reach the multi million marks eventually if you keep the pedal to the metal. As your team grows so will your popularity in this particular medium. But this medium for you is the best equalizer for you to reach your maximizing purpose. For you are a talent with purpose, not ordained by your own person but by your CREATOR who wrote your book b4 your birth. Entertainment cutting through the minutia of the industry, can be seen with the geniuses of many generations but especially 20 & 21st century icons during our and b4 our times. Toure seek out our living legends, every one you can muster barring ethnicity but also focusing on the many descendants of slaves whose genius transcended the oppression meted out to them and won over the oppressors and the oppressors children, which made it a plus for easing the oppression from us to enable the opening of more doors for us and the country as a whole. I sense you've had your difficulties as every human person and creation as a whole has. But after every difficulty there is relief and then difficulty again and a consistent cycle of the two. My overall point dear brother is that you are definitely on point. Glad to subscribe and like and comment. This is a diatribe of encouragement in the only way my intelligence can muster. My apologies for it.

I love this Human Being! So blessed God has allowed me to live and bear witness to greatness!

53:10 The songs mixed by *Jon Gass* were the best records produced by *L.A.* & *Face*

❤❤ Kenny I remember when my sister Nikki & I met u we were from Texas...u had a simular coat...a trench coat on that color that day...at Video Soul. 😊

This was a masterclass

Roni…..one of my favorites ❣️

Kenny, you are a great artist .

~ Not him saying he didn’t like that “burning feeling” (when working out). That’s hilarious. Some people actually crave that feeling. So on brand for Face. Wow.

A true icon!! So humble

Love this!! Babyface is a national treasure!!! ❤❤❤

Barry Gibb and Babyface. Kenneth Gamble and Kenny Babyface.

I wish I could watch face produce a song start to finish.

What an amazing man.

Love to hear him speak.

These interviews are so good.

I wish he would have worked with Marvin Gaye too

Face and Sade, Face and Prince... COLLOSAL COLLABS!!!

Babyface is the Goat ❤

The only question I am interested in is: How on earth could LA Face records F up that iconic Shanice album? How is that even possible? She should have at least received a Grammy nomination for best R&b vocal performance for "Yesterday", "When I close my Eyes" or "You Need a Man"!

I like to see the eyes of who I'm talking to tho.

I wonder if he and LA could have went back and renegotiated their joint venture deal with Clive Davis and Arista? They clearly out performed that original deal. I’m not a fan of the business side. I understand the importance of record companies but they are over valued ( I feel they are glorified investors or banks) LAFace I was close to becoming the next Motown with their self contained abilities)

I absolutely agree about that song !!!

Get with him in the studio please. We'd love to see the full footage of his Mariah and Whitney duet recording and MJ

Prince was rah-rah on that basketball court!

GIRLFRIEND, MERECEDES BOY was originally intended for VANESSA WILLIAMS..WOW...Can you imagine VANESSA WILLIAMS on those songs? That would have been HOTT..

True legend

The problem with artists’ deals is that it only seems “unfair” AFTER there’s proven success. Nobody involved really knows the real market value in advance. What happens when a new artist repeatedly flops? Crickets…

Awesome!

Great Stuff.

Ari lennox is my favorite female artist in 2023. Her voice is special.

Reality, turn around sir 💯

Wow Roni was written in 1983

I would love for Babyface to look up my two sons both of them are music producers.

Anita Baker should try to get Sade to finish the tour with her!!!

Don’t forget the greatness of Michael Jackson. Prince and Michael Jackson ruled.

Leave it to the Babyface to master the "humblebrag"; I'm sure he turns down all kinds of women all the time.

1:05:10 he listed Aretha, Whitney...then jumped to Celine 🤔🤔🤔 what about Mariah??? 👀🕵🏽‍♂️

This man with his big words

I must say the title is click bait because they put Anita Baker's name in there, knowing that he has recent controversy with Anita Baker in regards to her kicking him off of her tour. Many people will click on this video when they see her name, thinking that he's going to be discussing it....But all Babyface says is she has a unique voice. So "boo" to Toure for trying to get false clicks and views. And Toure definitely doesn't know music when he says Keyshia Cole can't sing. Love was an intense song that showed her great vocal ability!

It was on Bravo

That Ariana Grande album was nothing but a flipped BRANDY album. For those of you who DON'T know. Go and listen to Brandy's album "Never Say Never" and you will hear Ariana...ALL of todays "pop" music is nothing but yesterdays R&B

Anita said 'I Apologize' BabyFace 'It's No Crime' that more folk wanna see you than me and I'm the Headliner. Folk probably were not even showing up until Face took the stage.

The record business model was created by non artist. They put practices in place to keep artists enslaved. You can write, produce, and sing but the company owns the masters. It took visionaries like Prince and Chance the rapper to break the mold.

I have to disagree with you!KEYSHIA can sing!!!

He seems to still be a little shy

He kuldv found some better intro music 😂

Even though he is amazing

I love how he spins the Vanessa Williams and pebbles situation but that’s not what LA Reid said😅😅 😅I😂 if anything Pebbles paid for the song and paid more money on top of other things 😉

Toure?? I thought he was Eric Benet the sing🤷🏿‍♂️

Oh my.... it's weird seeing my name written in pod title... 😮

Sade could have suceeded in all of Toni Braxton Face penned songs

?😢Nothing like a well-groomed man especially if he's the interviewer

56:24-57:45 he cleaned his face wit dis cuz it was looking like he was too smart 4 his own good when left eye said what she said on behind the music!!!

I WANT TO WORK WITH YOU KENNY, HOW DO I GET UNTOUCH 👉🤙

Toure crazy af!!! Keyshia Cole can definitely sing!!! SMH 💯

I remember when this ninja told Donnie Simpson on Video Soul that GOGO wasn’t music, yet he used it on most of his up tempo songs watered down. BAMMA AZZ NINJA 😏

I don’t hear the live he had for Whitney now like he did back then. I wonder why?

baby face 🤔 his brother melvin was more handsome

Babyface stole two songs from a Minneapolis song writer/producer Robert 'Red' Scott. Mary J Blige's not going to cry was ain't going to cry and one of Toni Braxton songs. Red trusted babyface with those songs, and that he was going to do what he said and he wronged that man.

THE 60'S/70'S/80'S WERE MAGICAL TIMES..
