Music is Getting Better All The Time and Here is Proof....

music has come a long way since the days of four young lads that looked like they were trying to be Kenny G, George Michael, Arsenio Hall and Snow

kenny g = clay aiken (at least kenny could play an instrument)
george michael = jake from scissor sisters (ain't nothin wrong with that)
arsenio hall = nobody can match his level of cheese. lol
snow = kfed
the i wanna sex u up band (i forget what they were called) = nstync, backbutt boys, 98 degrees, blah blah. boybands work in cycles. they wait for the backlash against the last batch to subside, then there's a new throng of 'em waiting in the wings to bless us with their moribund top 40 hit parade from hell bullshit.

what were you saying?

Granted, the lyrics for I Wanna Sex You Up were corny as shyt!lol But their first album CMB as a whole was a very good album to have during the new jack swing era, IMO.

She did.

The Snow-look-a-like is alledgedly a deadbeat dad. He was married to Shon Gables, who has anchored the news in Detroit and New York. They had a child together and supposedly he doesn't pay child support.

Here's a picture of his ex.

TV anchor sues former Color Me Badd singer


OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Bryan Abrams, a former singer with the 1990s boy band Color Me Badd, is being sued for $16,000 that his ex-wife alleges he owes in back child support.

In better days (like here in 1992), Bryan Abrams was winning awards with Color Me Badd. Now, he allegedly owes back child support.
AP File

Shon Gables, a news anchor for WCBS in New York City, filed the lawsuit and appeared in Oklahoma County District Court earlier this week with the singer's other ex-wife, Ashly Abrams.

The 35-year-old Abrams was one of the founding members of the Oklahoma-based quartet, whose debut album, C.B.M., sold more than 8 million copies. Their hits included I Wanna Sex You Up and I Adore Mi Amor.

Gables estimates she has spent $10,000 trying to recover support owed by Abrams, who now works in an Oklahoma City tire store.

Ashly Abrams, a hairdresser, said she helped pay Bryan Abrams' legal fees against Gables until their own three-year marriage ended in 2003. The singer has played no role in the life of their 3-year-old daughter, Ashly Abrams alleges.

Bryan Abrams issued a statement claiming, "My ex-wife's allegations are simply that: 'allegations.' I prefer to tell my side of the story in court, where I am confident that God will see that truth prevails."

Abrams attorney, Floyd Taylor, told District Judge Allen J. Welch that his client didn't know about the child support agreement and is seeking to have it overturned.

Abrams' fiance, Kim Frazier, said he is working on a new recording to follow his 2001 solo album, Welcome to Me.

Gables says Abrams long ago spent all the money he made during his Color Me Badd days: "He has nothing to show for it, except the ASCAP publishing he co-owns with other members of the group."

The ninties was kind of scary because there was a lot of style over substance, while the eighties really had both.

Choosing a low point as a representative isn't really fair. So N Sync is better than the New Kids. Who cares?
