Bell Biv DeVoe break down the rise and fall of New Edition, and how their split led to the creation of BBD.
Ricky Bell, Ronnie DeVoe, and Michael Bivins of Bell Biv DeVoe join On That Note to break down the full story of New Edition — from their formation and early rise with hits like “Candy Girl” to the pressures, conflicts, and eventual split that led to the creation of BBD. They reflect on the Bobby Brown departure, the grind of performing as teenagers, and how they reinvented themselves with a new sound that helped define a generation of R&B. This is the real story behind the rise, fall, and rebirth that shaped New Edition and launched Bell Biv DeVoe.
