So THIS Is What Happened to The Boys - Motown's Boy Band
Рет қаралды 388,166
2 жыл бұрынThe Boys’ songs “Dial My Heart” and “Crazy” flooded the airwaves in the late 80s and early 90s. Signed to Motown Records, the quartet of brothers were marketed as the generation’s new version of the Jacksons. They were cute, talented, and charismatic, but after delivering three albums and a string of hits, they disappeared from mainstream music. Here’s what happened

@@missladyanonymity Mothers never receive that kind of praise? Did you grow up in the nineties? In the nineties all the way to modern times their were loads of songs praising mothers like Mama Dear by Kill Kill, Dear Mama by Tupac, A Song for Mama, by Boyz II Men, Blue by Beyonce, Hey Mama by kanye West and lots of others. hardly any song tributes was made for dads by Rap and R and B artist. And even mothers days seem to get more attention then fathers day. Clearly the OP is giving shot outs to fathers because fathers do not get the level of recognition that they deserve.

As I remembered it, the Boys wanted more creative control over their music as they transitioned through the second LP and into the third. Hakeem was becoming a solid producer and engineer in the studio, and they all were improving as songwriters and vocalists. The idea to be gangster in sound and appearance for ‘Saga’ was THEIR idea, not Motown’s. They held their ground when the label didn’t promote that record or the singles from it, and walked away on their own terms. Awesome story not only about the Suns themselves, but also about their parents.

It was a different sound for EWF as they were trying to keep up with the changing music vibe that The Boys were riding at the time. Those were my DJ'ing days and the music was good.

I Loooooooveeeeeeeed The Boys back then!!! I had such a crush in Hakeem. I listened to their tapes over and over nonstop. ❤️ If there is a chance. DJ would remember to play The Boys I’m just instantly transported back in time to my childhood. I’m soo glad to hear that they are all doing well and still very close. Blessings to their parents for being the right kind of parents to put their kids safety and well-being first. Glad they were there to make smart decisions with contract deals & money. I will definitely check out their music now!

This was a great update! I’m so happy they found their purpose in life and we’re not scared to let the industry go, God provided for them with their parents and the wise choices made for them. The fact they weren’t scared to leave and go live a different life than the glitz and fame is beautiful.

Really glad to hear how parents initially educated themselves regarding the music industry. The boys are blessed to have been raised with both parents. They seem like a healthy, happy, caring family who survived the record industry business in tact. Good job."Boys",also Mom and Dad, u make us proud. 💪🤗😂

I loved this group. I did not know about their 3rd album. I met them at the burger king near my home in Dayton, Ohio where they were doing promo for their album. Its crazy because they arrived in a van like an astro van. No security just like regular people. They were a great group who appears to be doing great things with their life. Thanks for this video.
