New Edition "never forget" meeting Michael Jackson

New Edition are fast approaching 30 years in the music biz, and Boston boys have a ton of memories since the abandonment of their first album, candy Girl, in 1983.

For Johnny Gill, his favorite came in 1990 when not gathered on MTV Video Music Awards; Ralph Tresvant, his best memory is time after hearing the song of the Group on the radio for the first time. Ricky Bell, is sign of agreement, but he then recalled another special time - meets the King of the pop.

"I suppose Ralph took my number one, but the number two would probably meet Michael Jackson, invited to his house." Will the Manor House and him having seen jumping down the stairs, "Bell told MTV News before the group performed with DJ Cassidy 30th anniversary in New York on 6 July." "Just to meet someone, this icon who has inspired you, is a moment I will never forget."

New Edition - which includes Bobby Brown, Tresvant, Gill, Bell, Ronnie DeVoe, Michael Bivins - are in a meeting to run after New Orleans 2011 Essence Music Festival. In addition to a number of shows they perform together, have also a new album in the works, and if they have their way, they will continue to add to the value of the three decades of memorable moments.

Brown, however, it will always start at the beginning. "For me, 30 years would probably be just meet them," he said of his group. "To meet them and power have friends in my life and brothers in my life who were not blood brothers, but they were my brothers and they take care of me.".

"New edition Album ' in the making, the" Bobby Brown says

New Orleans - let not the game of fantasy foot fool you: Bobby Brown, said it took him two years to return enough memory "muscle" to rid the smoove shots that earned his group, New Edition, a permanent place in the annals of boy bands.

OK, maybe not two years, but Brown - whose dance on stage was a time he arrested during its peak in the 1990s, in the State of Georgia - admitted he took the time when we have caught up with him and his group finally weekend 2011 Essence Music Festival.

"It only took two years, but it took some time to get back in, you know, not moving the way I used to move and get the steps and start to dance on my toes instead of myself,"the bad boy R & B spot laughed as he showed a little shuffle."

"Bobby on the shoes." Let me tell you, it ain't had shoes on stage for the last 20 years, "heartthrob group Ralph Tresvant teasing the sneaker-toggle Brown." "" Then, it is a testimony to his dedication. »

"It's a lot of things I am capable of doing, but the steps of the new edition, if you think so or not, they are probably one of the hardest things in the dance that you can do,"Added Brown.""

In the 1980s, these steps, combined with the soulful voice, took five young boys in a neighbourhood of Boston in the rise of the music industry. Now to celebrate 30 years in the business, new edition - Ronnie DeVoe, Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, Tresvant, Brown and Johnny Gill (the non-bostonien only brought into the fold in the 1990s to take Brown) - put their indelible Street on the hustle boys band stamp.

And roll influence - if the pop bubblegum to candy Girl debut 1983 or the songs from boys to men of their classic album, heart break . Example, sought-after producer Jim Jonsin said MTV News this month that he would have reference new sound for Justin Bieber Editionof the next album.

Behind the scenes at the Superdome, the still-dapper guys, now in their early 40s, chatted with their arms flung around the other. In three decades, they have endured more than a few ups and downs - voluntary hiatus, the label changes and infighting - and even spawned a successful solo career and sub-groups such as Bell Biv DeVoe. But gathered on this July Fourth weekend in the Big Easy, they found that they could resume this magic, reducing women to grinding tweens.

"With the love of being around each other for many years and the confidence that we just gonna y each other, we were able to let go of [individual projects] for a minute and jump the car and jump in it,"Tresvant in a stylish fedora tan explained."."

This could be an album in the works?

"We have a new edition in making album," revealed Brown. "We believe in this regard, we are talking about, and everything starts with us, just think about making good music together." ... "I am just pleased to be part of the present and I am proud to be part of this".
