Bell Biv Devoe Make A Run With Their First New Song In 15 Years

SEPTEMBER 12, 2016 | PUBLISHED BY JAKE PAINE

Bell Biv Devoe Make A Run With Their First New Song In 15 Years (Video)

It has been 15 years since Bell Biv DeVoe released an official single. That has changed today (September 12), in the form of “Run.” The song and the corresponding video prove to be worth the wait. Ricky, Mike, and Ronnie own their legacy and their era—complete with a Run-D.M.C. stylized logo, a kitted out Jeep Wrangler, and the kind of wardrobe that is back in style like it was 1990 again. Notably, this video is directed by Lionel C. Martin, the same director responsible for memorable visuals such as “Poison” and“Something In Your Eyes.”

This visual from the trio shows the squad is out to own their place as rapping-singing pioneers who can put it down. The drums and bassline from the single repackage that knock (courtesy of Herb Alpert) from The Notorious B.I.G.’s 1997 #1 smash “Hypnotize” in a way that pays homage to blend tapes, and still comes across as fresh.

B.B.D. is working with eOne (their first time as independents), so fans can expect some more developments coming.

I'm surprised you liked that one. I didn't like it as much as the rest of the album.

It seems like other artists of that time they poured all the hits into one album and

bombed on subsequent albums. They had only had one hit from the followup album

Hootie Mack.

Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint

"Poison" is still, as of this year, one of the highest tested songs for radio audiences. biggrin

I can attest to its power, because I once saved a flubbed up DJ mix with it! lol
