Red and Lil Dave look the same, but I don't know about the others. The one dude (Ro Ro) in the front looks like he is lit up!

Forgot to respond to this.

When "Iesha" first dropped in 1991:
RoRo 12
Chris 11
Red 10
Mark 8
Dave 7

When the CD and single gained momentum and the guys first appeared on Soul Train Chris, Red, and Dave had had b-days and were 12,11,and 8 respectively.

Wow, so Chris and RoRo are around my age.

TonyVanDam said:

Probably around the time of the new MJ album.

Adisa said:

Dave's part was what made the remake better than the original:

"I just wanna let you know that it's hurting me so
Girl, I just had to let you go."

If you can listen to that without laughing, you are a robot.

Anyway, I still love that album. (See, RipHer2Shreds, we agree again.) "Iesha" and "Playground" were the big hits, but "My World" was the underrated fourth single (with a great video) and "Little Soldiers" and "Spydermann" were hot album tracks.

Funny how G.A. still gets no respect.

He wasn't really a member until the second CD (kind of like Jerome and the Time...he wasn't a "member" per se until later), and "respect" and "ABC". don't even belong in the same sentence.

They were fun, could dance, made me feel like a kid again and Dallas Austin hooked them up on some hot ghetto-thumping, New Jack beats. That is all.

Adisa said:

I meant respect relative to the other members. I know he wasn't really a member, but he was always with them, appears in songs as the hype man, and is in all the videos, so whatever.

Now that I think about it, that was one of my first 3 CDs. I held on to tapes as long as I could.

The members of New Edition aren't THAT much older than the members of Another Bad Creation. You're looking at likely a 10- to 14-year age difference, depending on the members in question.

The connection is obvious in that they were discovered by Michael Bivins, who tried to compare each member of ABC with a member of N.E.

New info from same forum:

"

ABC is about to come back and from what I hear they have a listening session on deck. So, look out for their new music. They had a listening session in ATL last month...

"

"Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, and Mike...
Chris, Mark, Red, Dave, Ro!"

Nice thread-Iesha

Najee said:

I remember that and at the the time I thought it was a bit of a stretch.
RoRo= Michael Bivins
Chris = Ricky Bell
Red = Ralph
Mark = Ronnie
Dave = Bobby Brown

I was like "Ooooookay, don't see or hear it". But later it made sense, I guess.

Najee said:

Thanks man. I think Bobby Brown might be old enough to be Daddy to the youngest ones, Since he started having kids at 15 or 16

damn they grown!!!

I'm glad someone pointed out who was who. The only one I kinda recgonize is Mark only b/c I went to high school w/him.

Seeing them takes me back to elementary school. When ABC blew up, Red & Mark lived in my neighborhood. My friends and I would dare each other to go to their house and ask for them to come out and play.

November said:

Really? I think Chris is the most instantly recognizable. You couldn't tell that was Chris?

AlexdeParis said:

On second look.....yeah. Chris and Red really haven't changed much.

I want to see what "Hi-Five" look like now....
