Color Me Badd's Bryan Abrams Arrested for Attempted Assault on Bandmate as Victim Speaks Out

https://people.com/music/...d-assault/

I grew up with his cousin in Oklahoma (where CMB originates from). She and I went to school together and are still friends today. I told her about this incident and we watched the video. She wasn't surprised (yet equally pissed off). She said he's always been an asshole and a sloppy drunk. I think he should be fired from the band for this public display of violence.

They're scheduled to do a show in my area next month.I wonder if Bryan will be a part of it.The other bandmembers should demand that he take a break and get some help.

I sent my friend (Bryan's cousin) earlier, after reading this, that said, "Bryan is starting his own group, Color Me Madd. Ironically the band is renaming themselves Color Me Gladd, and releasing their new single "I Wanna Beat You Up".

She said, "Fuck, I pissed myself."

I remember back in 1992,it sure seemed like these guys were headed for big things.I didn’t hear too much from their subsequent albums.

They were headed for "big" things, check out that mug shot!

Small crowds = great motive for a publicity stunt. Such a strange outburst.

yeah,I have seen some people suggest that this is all a publicity stunt. It would be sad if they had to rely on a cheap publicity stunt just to get attention these days No,I think this is real and that Bryan has some serious problems that he needs to deal with

It's not. Bryan's wife warned the band about his drinking again. My friend (his cousin) has long told me about his back n' forth with drunken violent outbursts. This was a really bad situation, doing that in such a public & harsh way. He's a big boy and the guy that went down looked like a rag doll. You are right - he needs to really drill down on this.

Had no idea they were still a going concern. Loved their debut and their Time And Chance album. Particularly "Choose" https://www.youtube.com/w...-IWEjnpKME

I remember the first single ("Time and Chance") didn't live up to sales expectations,so the second single "Choose" (produced by Jam and Lewis) was supposed to be the big hit that saved the album.However,that one was only a minor hit too.It seems that pop music fans were so fickle.

And lots of it too!

Apparently, the grueling nature of touring and dancing is not having the same effect on him as it does other artists. The craft services clearly outweigh the stage routine every night.
