Part 18: • Johnny Gill Laughs at ...
Part 20: • Johnny Gill: I Clashed...
--------
Johnny Gill revealed New Edition's internal struggles over him and Ralph Tresvant obtaining the rights to their band name. After his lawyer's advice to secure their band name, Gill wanted to make sure that an agreement was put in place among all members; the band name could not be used without collective permission. Gill emphasized preserving the unity, integrity, and value of the band, allowing mutual understanding to stand amid differences in individual decision-making styles. Despite hitting rough patches, Gill remarks that their shared drive to achieve a common goal kept them united. He fondly recalled his relationship with Michael Bivins, known as the main one setting the tone within the group. The issues over the band name were eventually resolved, enabling the band to embark on a tour as New Edition.

The problem is.. if you aren't the founding member but you have business knowledge that is helpful to the group that you are a part of - you don't go around them to utilize it, you go to them and teach them how to do it. Brotherhood isn't a 1 or 2 person business..it's an "all hands on deck" growing process 💪🏾

@@dominiquewilson ummmmmm, where in my comment did I say that Johnny was in charge of anything? Each member of NE brings something to the table. Mike has the business sense of the group, but every once in awhile it’s good to get an alley-oop. Johnny provided that, and if wasn’t him it would be some one else. In fact Ralph co-signed and no one’s complaining. Also regardless of when Johnny joined NE, he’s a key component of NE.

@@dominiquewilsonYes Johnny joined New Edition later on in the game. New Edition was a household name then, but let’s be real, they were a bubble gum type of group for when we were young teens. It wasn’t until Johnny Gill joined the group that gave the group it’s mature sound as Young Men. I truly believe they’ve would of eventually faded out if Johnny hadn’t help with the mature sound of the group. So he just as much an original in my eyes than anyone else. He was an important part of the group as one of the Lead Singers.

Johnny put in his time and energy and blood into New Edition, but I never believed he should have been the one to buy the trademark. They all put in a piece of them into the group and Ralph was essentially the lead singer and the heart of New Edition, BUT Bobby was the reason why the group even existed in the first place. However, Johnny made perfect since when he said the name needs to be protected. And he does seem like he's the most rational out of all of them. I hate that they haven't gotten their props like they should have. They were The Jackson Five of their time. BET gave them their Biopic (which was done very well. Lifetime network needs to take lesson from BET bc what in the all hell were those Aaliyah and Whitney biopics??) and their Anniversary Special. But these guys deserve more.

I have been a fan of New Edition since Candy Girl dropped. I totally understand why Johnny followed thru with the trademark + him and Ralph are best friends. Johnny isn't only the oldest in NE; he has been in the Entertainment Industry longer and is more mature given his childhood of a 2-parent home and a strong spiritual foundation. New Edition was marketed as a Pop Group but dem fellas was from "da hood"; no shade just the truth. The trademark move was necessary and it's a reflection of how business affairs with the New Edition brand wasn't as tight as they should've been. They missed out on a lot of money not capitalizing off their 2017 BET Biopic with a tour. It would've been massive but too much ego got in the way & they couldn't see the bigger picture as a Brand. I would've been like when are we rehearsing for da tour cuz I'm trying to secure the bag. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Johnny is not even an original member so him buying the trademark is a NO for me. I understand Ralph who has been the lead man the entire duration. Johnny can have several seats. The only reason Johnny kept coming back to NE was because his solo career peaked quickly and he needed to pay the bills. Had he had Gerald Levert or Keith Sweat type success he would have left NE and LSG in the dust.

Some of this is true but what he won't mention..Bob drunkenness revealed something that offended Ralph and Ralph now didnt want to do the tour. Everyone moved away from bob and Alicia put him back into rehab. But Mike like groups have continued with way worse behind the scenes and they're losing money and to make a point to Ralph reached out to bob and made rbrm which made $$$.

New Edition should be touring and making money just like the Rolling Stones. They been singing for 70 years and getting paid.

I'm confused on why he would buy the trademark name of the group he wasn't even a original member of

@ucbx 7 ай бұрын

It's good that they secured the trademark of the name, but I don't buy the argument that a member of New Edition might go and start his own group with other singers and call it New Edition like the Temptations did. No member of New Edition would ever create a fake New Edition with a new line up of new singers that were not previously in the group. They don't have to do this because they all have solo success and can always tour as solo acts.

Man, it’s pretty much every 90’s male group out here doing that and it’s sad.

HOW DO YOU KNOW.MANY OTHER GROUPS HAVE DONE IT OVER THE YEARS.NOT JUST THE TEMPTATIONS

@dsmiley1971 7 ай бұрын

I hear your point but look at the Temptations. David Ruffin, Eddie Kendrick, and Dennis Edwards all had successful solo careers but got other singers and toured as the Temptations until Otis Williams successfully won in court to prevent this from happening. Because of the egos involved I could see members of New Edition doing the same thing.

@@dsmiley1971 True. That's a good point but after all these years of me following New Edition (since Candy Girl) it's hard for me to picture any one of them doing that. Which member of New Edition do you think would be likely to start his own version of New Edition, hire new singers and tour?

@aaroniic 7 ай бұрын

Sheeeeit technically Bobby, Ronnie, Mike and Ricky (RBRM) did just that 😂 they may not have called it New Edition but they basically created a separate group (out of spite) excluding Johnny and Ralph.

You’re right, Ralph and Bobby were real close. But they had a falling out some years ago and Ralph wasn’t speaking to him for years and this was all during the trademark situation. They’re cool now but I don’t know if they’ll ever go back to being that close again.
