  • Wow speechless. This is one of the things I've seen. The talen was just so amazing! Bobby has always been one of my favorites!

  • B. Brown brought it hard for the whole nation to see on this awards show. He killed the crowd with his singing, rapping, and dancing. His energy back then was off the charts. Go B., and keep it going with more solo and NE music. Thanks for uploading this classic performance. :-)

  • Omg this is amazing!!!

  • Original old school shuffle

  • This is what you call "talent"

  • that was the 1990 a m a 's if im not mistaken...they had some SERIOUS talent up on that stage that night

  • that fools sick. Can't ever get tired of his shit, too bad he fell off.

  • Heard "Every Little Step" for the first time ever on XFactor USA when Marcus Canty sang it the other night - such a good song!! I didn't know it cos Bobby Brown wasnt really popular over here (I'm from Ireland) but it's so catchy!!

  • 23 years later, and "My Prerogative" STILL goes harder than almost all of the R&B songs out there!

  • This is awesome. He is very underrated.

  • swag

  • He invented the shuffle!

  • and ppl wondered why him and whitney stayed together for so long!

  • They Dont Preform like this Anymore

  • this is my favorite song to dance to...i love the beat an the dance moves

  • AMAs 1990.

  • Orignal shuffle

  • Man.  Bobby Brown was the real deal.

  • Look how he walked of ..back then .. He did it on em!

  • His the first, kid cudi. What I mean by that Bobby brown his the very first to sing and fallow it up with a rap.

  • Awesome moves!

  • Wow...those were da good days when music was music

  • That was hott.!

    danq.!

    gottaa love that man.!

  • beast 

  • Britney spears remade my prerogative which was horrible yet dey completely disregard that it was a bobby b song & just focus on his drug abuse & whitney houston SMH yet wen u listen to the lyrics he was letting u kno exactly wut was going on."everybodys talkin all these things about me y dont they just let me live?I dont need commission make my own decisions thats my prerogative.dey say Im crazy I dont realli care....dey say Im nasty but I dont give a damn..."listen to the lyrics of the song

  • they always do this to our artists man!I remember,just b4 mj died, wen dey were announcing "this is it",dey were like "but can mj even make a comeback,can he still do it?"YET all these played out OLD ASS rock groups that ppl like mj & bobby destroyed back in da 80's like kiss,etc get 2 do all these shows & have nothing but love & positive reviews?its no wonder black music has taken a nose dive,look at wut they do to our brightest,most talented stars!

  • @RUS- U put it down! they don't know-I didn't know it was any1 left that knew about Bobby Brown! He was the baddest!He was the 1st 2 get arrested 4His moves @ his concerts-Alot of groups&singers after then!wer dancin like that& they did get it from BB.Comparin him2 MJ is like comparing apples 2 oranges like U put it down. MJ influenced everybody bt so did Bobby Brown b/c he ws young&sexy &did the latest dances.They don't give black artist their prop-they use em &then destroy em wen their done.

  • I truly believe they contributed in destroying bobby b.During this era wen he was blowing up,dis wen dey started attacking him & from there he started to decline.& becuz bobby b never compromised himself dey never had & still dont have anything positive 2 say about him.I swear dey had something to do with his drug/alcohol abuse!MJ even said after he made thriller thats wen things began to go down hill,dey started trying their best 2 destroy him.I love both mj & bobby!

  • @rareunheardsound bobby is still beast but mj was way b4 him

  • @MrKareemRuiz I kno he was b4 him but they still do the same thing to these entertainers regardless

  • @Friday13thTaurus I guess to each their own

  • but watch wen bobby brown dies.JUST like mj,dey throw u away like ur nuttin & den wen dey die out of no where ,every1s on their NUTS & is their no.1 fan.I bet every1s gonna say how bobby brown influenced dem,etc his youtube vids are gonna have MAD HITS,their gonna play all these remarkable moments of his career that dey try 2 make us forget,hes gonna have a bunch of stans,etc IM TELLING U GUYS FRM NOW.Im real enough to recognize talent wit out some1 having 2 die!bobby brown is a living legend.

  • @Friday13thTaurus I enjoy it lol o well it was his prerogative

  • every little step was written bye aaron hall boby really can move back then wow

  • I love it

  • he was something! go bobby!

  • Damn, now thats a performer

  • do it Bobby

  • do t Bobby

  • one of the greatest things ever

  • Fucking awesome

  • Wow alot of moves,ehh?

  • I love jusine piper

  • Absolutely untouchable performance. The undisputed king of new jack swing

  • I WANT BOBBY's shoes with the metal tip!?!?! Who still sells these? I WANT!

  • such talent...all thrown away

    

  • i've heard that "get busy" phrase and seen those same dance moves before......JORDAN KNIGHT!

  • I heard "a girl like you is like a Pikachu"

  • Stage presence? Check...

    Charisma? Check....

    The man moves so easily, like dancing is what he should be doing all the time. Very good. He totally owns the stage.

  • Wtf? I'm sorry but I don't like his dance moves. Those pelvic thrusts make me cringe..it's way too aggressive. He didn't have the smooth flow like MJ so people on here comparing him to MJ/saying he was better should GTFO because you know better.

  • @crazy4corbinbleux mj was good but bobby had that sex appeal...as a black female,I cud appreciate it!Mj was alright,he grabbed his crouch 2 much which was weird & did the same moves A LOT,bobby had way more energy & excitement-more charisma.mj & bobby brown had two different styles.Bobby Brown was a urban r&b singer/rapper & dancer who had sex appeal & liked to entertain & serenade to the females,mj was more like soulish pop & did it mostly for the children.it all boils down to PREFERENCE

  • @rareunheardsound Umm, Michael Jackson had mad sex appeal as well. Where do you think all those shouting sounds and grabbing his crotch was for?

  • @crazy4corbinbleux as much as ppl found mj cute,he didnt have as much sex appeal-MAYBE during the rock wit u/thriller era but he still wasnt dat sexual/charismatic.Both GUYS & GIRLS were screaming at his concerts-I seen footage of men fainting too which was WEIRD lol.Also the crouch grabbing,that wasnt sex appeal,he said himself dat he just go so caught up into the music he ended up doin dat.MJ had a weird relationship wit females,I dont believe he was gay but he was scared of females man

  • @crazy4corbinbleux in my opinion.Mj is one of the greatest to ever do it but I m not gonna join the dick riding train.BOBBY BROWN IS THE KING OF NEW JACK SWING,WHILE MJ IS THE KING OF POP.Now wen it comes down to my preference,I PREFER NEW JACK SWING over POP.Bobby Brown has some tunes u can throw on & ppl will lose their minds over it & try 2 do dem dances which are still sick! bobby brown had the moves,voice,rapping,charisma,s­ex appeal-he knew how to put on a show & plz his audience.A LEGEND

  • @crazy4corbinbleux bobby brown also has some good ass romantic sex tunes-some baby making music with out being down right filthy,offensive & derogatory & still cud pull off some sexy ass moves...just sayin!tender roni & rock witcha,o shyt,words just dont describe it.He has dat sexual healing thing going on & still had dem dance hits dat every1 cud dance to.There was a balance!both sexes cud get into his music,its hard to do that !bow wow,chris brown,cant pull that off,alot of males hate dem!

  • @rareunheardsound also,usher did a whole bobby brown medley tribute at one of his concerts!alot of ppl have mentioned bobby under their breaths but becuz bobby b's image has been destroyed he doesnt get the credit he deserves.& HELL YES chris brown was influenced by bobby brown,just watch the take u down video-A HORRIBLE attempt at doin wut bobby b was KNOWN FOR.Alot of r&b guys got that whole sex appeal charisma thing from bobby b,bow wow even started following it!bobby b was a trendsetter

  • Bob had something that no other since has had. Stage presence, no one comes close, and if only he had kept himself clean., and rolled with babyface in addition to Teddy Riley, He could have been bigger than MJ.

  • Flawless!

  • Still fresh in my memories, the best dancer/ entertainer in the world after MJ back in the 90's

  • this is real dancing..sorry MJ, but i'm from the Bobby Brown school of dance.

  • Wow! and I mean WoW dis brotha had it OMG!!! he was even on cue with all the dancing nand still sang on key. Wow.

  • Bobby does not get the credit he truly deserves.

  • It looks like Chris Rock singing, lol

  • Brittany did Bobby's song NO justice

  • Like it or not...bobby brown was star in his dayz.

  • britney copy cat :(

  • I miss the 80's, when good music was popular

  • I wish more folks would watch this and give B. Brown his PROPS! He actually had a good voice and is one of the greatest dancers of all-time *bump what you heard*

    But more importantly Bobby had really really great music! Like these songs are 20 years old and still sound better and go harder than anything in R&B on the radio today! There's no gimmicks or frontin Bobby was raw sex appeal with the talent to back up bravado.

    Thanks for posting!!

  • @GatorGirl04

    Man's been straight for six years after a debilitating drug addiction, he should have people's respect for that even if they can't appreciate the force of nature performer that he is.

  • @GatorGirl04 you are correct, bobby was amazing. This is how you sing live and dance at the same time. A true performer. I just seen a video of his daughter singing and all the credit was going to whitney..I had to tell em um hello her dad is bobby brown

  • @GatorGirl04 cor blimey check them moves... its like mc hammer on crack.

  • @TheOriginalKushMan his albums just replaced all the rnb in my library

  • @GatorGirl04 I give him his props. I would not give him the title of King Of R&B only b/c he did not have enough hit albums. He had a great voice and was a great dancer. I never knew why he wasn't the lead singer of new edition I guess the same reason Florence Ballard was not the lead singer of the Supremes b/c the voice had too much soul and personality to it. Anyway Bobby Brown is/was great I hate that drugs derailed his career b/c in the 80's there was Michael Jackson, Prince and Bobby Brown.

  • I always loved Bobby Brown! 

  • there's nothing like this now...NOTHING

  • dude Bobby could dance! awesome moves and presence...great performer.

    bieber's a fag

  • B Brown was the man back then- king of stage!

  • Cocaine is a hell of a drug. Bobby was one of the few performers who actually sang live on stage. He was a contemporary song and dance man. How sad!

  • ushers inspiration was bobby brown , when you see usher live

    performing you know why

  • @radeslav88 chris brown & usher are some real ass holes.They dont give bobby brown credit because of his drug problems.They give all of their props to mj which is just bs.Dont get me wrong,even n.e (yes including bobby)got their inspiration from mj.BUT THATS NOT TO SAY NO1 ELSE HAS CAME OUT WIT ANYTHING ORIGINAL CUZ DATS NOT TRUE.If u look at chris brown & ushers whole persona,like the songs,sex appeal,grinding & serenading to da female fans-u can see bobby brown influenced that!

  • @rareunheardsound No, I disagree. If Bobby Brown dies, not everybody like Chris Brown/Usher is gonna be claiming they got their moves from him..because they didn't. It was from Michael Jackson, who got his moves from James Brown, and so on. I don't think Bobby Brown is in that chain line. &It didn't take Mj's DEATH for artists to say he inspired them. If U remember Chris Brown has been doing MJ tributes since 2005 and Usher always credited MJ when he was alive even in 2001 Anniversary Special.

  • @crazy4corbinbleux they mention mjs influence here & there but mj didnt get as much props until he died,& ppl who werent sayin shyt about mj wen he was alive started saying he was an inspiration after his death.Its a fact,they dont love u as much until ur dead.It takes death for ppl to truly see how much of an effect a person had on the lives of there.EVERY1 got their styles frm james brown but at the same time both mj & bobby put their own unique style & twist to it.

  • @crazy4corbinbleux do u kno how much ppl use TRY TO BE BOBBY BROWN BACK IN THE DAY?Do u know how much RAPPERS admitted how much dey loved bobby b?He was a young brotha from the hood who cud sing,dance,beat box,rap & he mixed it wit SEX APPEAL & wudnt compromise himself,Do u kno how much trouble he got into over his controversy persona?Back in these days he was forever in the media.He was even arrested for his sexually simulated moves.There cud only be ONE bobby b,their was & is no other like him

  • @crazy4corbinbleux listen to the words of my prerogative.The song is EXACTLY wut Im speaking of!Bobby Brown was one of the realist brothas to ever do it & he refused to be controlled or compromise himself!y do u think he was kicked out of new edition?Ppl loved that about bobby b brought that rawness to entertainment,& pushed boundaries.Even 2pac shakur before he died wanted to sign bobby b to death row EAST-black folks looked up to bobby b,& females LOVED him.trust me watch wen he dies...

  • @rareunheardsound mj is better and was way b4 him its JB THEN MJ THEN BJ

  • You can't tell me this muthafucka couldn't move som'n nasty.....!

    Dude was cold.

  • Das sind Zwei super Songs von Bobby Brown. Aber ich mag mehr das Lied Every little step!

  • Bobby Brown was sooo talented, so sexy why did he mess himself up? Its is such a shame as i still think he has something to offer. But he looked real scary in Ja Rules Thug Luviing, i was really shocked. Bobby get well!

  • It's ok

  • I miss these days. Chris Brown? are they serious these days

  • Bobby killing it like only Bobby can !!!!!

  • I don't care what anybody says about bobby. At his prime, Bobby was the man. He was the man with NEW EDITION "MR TELEPHONE MAN". He just felt the stuff the guys were doing as kids wasn't what he really felt in his heart. When he went solo, He brought out hit after hit, ROCK WITCHA, MY PEROGATIVE,DON'T BE CRUEL ect... all heart felt whether fast or slow. The Man was a genius and you gotta give him his props. TRUE LEGEND. MAD RESPECT BOBBY.

  • Believe it or not, this was when he was dating Janet and Whitney. He actually gave that look to Janet in the front row @ 3:06. Janet was also dating Rene. And Whitney was also dating Eddie Murphy.

  • @TheLanard i wish he would have stuck wit janet..he probably would have ended up better

  • can you hear the DOG ??? uuuuuups upside my HEAD!!! :))

  • OMG michael Jackson stole the melody of this song BRICKING NEWS

  • He was on his game on this performance. Had he kept it up like this he would have a much bigger star.

  • He used get arrested because of his "naughty" peformances !!!!!!

  • Before there was Usher and Chris Brown, there was BOBBY BROWN! It's kind of sad that at the peak of his career, he was barely out of his teens, but this is definitely Bobby at his peak. Thanks for posting it.

  • what the fuck is the name of this dance? xD

  • aint this wen he met whitney

  • Who is Justin Bieber.... I don't see anything in thta dude

  • now thats what i call good condition lol

  • The true entertainer!

  • I miss when music was fun!

  • Classic Bobby Brown with perhaps his finest live performance on an award show...  He totally nailed this performance and it never gets old seeing it!! So Chris Brown, Usher, Neo, and all the others who came after... How about U all just join together and all stand to your feet and say THANK U!!

  • Billion times better than Justin Bieber.

  • @TheSNK1986 got that right

  • @TheSNK1986 lol who is Justine Piper?

  • Who is Justine Piper?

  • Have always been a Bobby Brown fan! His musical performances were explosive and there was no limit to his energy. I so miss the music of that day and time.

  • What a performer!

  • Man B.brown was a great talent, but what i respect most is that he was fearless..a lot of acts tone it down for white award shows...but this nigga rt here..still going all out..gotta luv that..

  • @FameOg - Yes sir!!!!

  • @FameOg ur so right.there will never another bobby b!

  • @jizsaw it was babyface that wrote boby brown songs.learn you music

  • @vodopija22 Teddy Riley wrote a lot, the best songs actually

  • @vodopija22

    While it is true that Babyface co-wrote and produced some of the songs from this album, Teddy Riley also cowrote and produced several of the songs, as well. YOU learn YOUR music!

  • I definitely remembered this performance on TV years ago!

  • Gotta love that old school running man at 2:00

  • Ha Chris Brown couldn't hold the jock strap of Bobby Brown

  • woooow !!! david caint beat box or rap.but he can sing bobby b under the table . Unfair to compare music from 2 different genres. David wasnt the most handsome of the group,but he had "ugly man"swag".Bobby's bad boy image was created in a board room.Davids bad image is what Barry tried to hide from the world.

  • this was the baddest AMA show ever lol i remember janet jackson performing on the same night too

  • awesome luv it man bobby can dance

  • Bobby brown fue un icono en los años 1990,pero su mal proceder le llevo a la ruina, pero aun asi boby te deseo mucha suerte, eras genuino, saludos para los fan de bobby.

  • A superb song and dance performance band, geat moves and style, groovy synchronization and technique! Thanks for sharing this video Cameron... 5*****

  • You know...I'd like to thank Bobby for contributing to the music like he did. The only thing I regret, is when he wasted his talent for drugs. And I can see why Whitney fell in love with him. Shit all that gyrating he does, I'd fall in love too. And he was a cool guy.

  • This performance gets me everytime. Bobby used to be the shit; these moves are HOTT

  • BOBBY HAD A SEXY SWAGG!

  • It's amazing from where Bobby Brown fell. He used to be the shit!

  • i wonder if Whitney was in the audience

  • good good very is my life

  • Now that's how you put on a show! Energy and style. Older dances and singers are way better then the new.

  • I add that he was the king of rnb and he wasx very original and he was a trend setter ! I don't care what no one says ,

    By the was does anyone know how old he was on here ?

  • @kiddope95

    Bobby was king of New Jack swing era(1989-92 that era was all about dancing and not the voice he was. He went platinum because of super producers Teddy Riley,Babyface,Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. With his mediocre vocals he never gotten a record deal in the 60's.If bobby was the king of R&B what was luther vandross? !!

  • I'm onlyy like 14 but omfg I'm in love wit Bobby brown ; I know like all of his songs nd all the lyrics ; he was sooooooooooooooooo fine and he could sang ! Not sing but SANG !!! Wish I was born in the new Jack swing era ! Idk what this is that they call "music" these daysx !

  • Im only 30 but im starting to understand why older folks say they dont make good music like they use too. Late 80's early 90's, I miss it.

  • The "original bad boy" of R & B was David Ruffin from the Temptations. All fo you who say Bobby Borwn is the original bad boy need to check the history.

  • @blackprince206 Mr Ruffin was the shit with Temps but he was no B Bomber. David just sang. Bobby sang, wrote, produced, play instruments, danced, rap and beat boxed, directed, acted and even started his own record label before Puffy.

  • @djINFINITEspace

    Sam Cooke did all of that before Bobby Brown.

  • @djINFINITEspace Please google David Ruffin !!!! Picture Bobby singing,Since i lost my baby or I wish it would rain !!! lol!!!!!! David had a soulful voice, that can imitated but not duplicated !!!! Off stage Bobby was a bad boy,but the stunts Mr Ruffin pulled are notorious and legendary !!!!

  • @passion4posh U are Jelous

  • @naldonhantumbo Jealous drunk assed Bobby Brown or jealous the fact that YOU cant spell the word j-e-a-l-o-u-s ? Pick up a dictionary AND a history book and get back to me.

  • @passion4posh actually I am a big David Ruffin fan, I even have his common man 12". I grew up in the 80's so that's probably why I think Bob is better. I mean, c'mon. David can't rap and beat box, hahaha

  • @djINFINITEspace

    Agreed, but you must remember that those doors were not open to guys in the 1960's. "Media Mogulism" did not happen for artists. No Jay-Z's or Diddy's. Label owners like Berry Gordy did not sing. They had one job. Singers stayed away from the business end. They had one job. The information age and mass-media explosion of the 90's changed that. David was stoned anyways, so it wouldn't have worked out even if he had seen the chance. As performers, Bobby & David are =

  • @blackprince206

    Please tell these folks about Mr Ruffin!!! Bobby had nothing over David !!!!!!!!!!!

  • this is so cool what year was this

  • I am truely in love with this quy... every since the tyme i seen hym on television i thouqht he was very attractive.... so dnt hate on hym cuz dur will neva b n e 1 lyke hym./.. TY BOBBY 4 EVERYTHING.

  • my sonq

  • "Freeze emcees while i breeze through my combat, They wack they lack and the'll never get a contract, sip the spit from the tip of my bozak"

  • @djINFINITEspace RAKIM

  • @JIGSAW71 Rakim came out in what, 86, 87? Bobby was emceeing and break dancing in 83

  • @djINFINITEspace Rakim ghost wrote most of Bobby's songs during this time Especially On our own. Trust me.

  • Comment removed

  • Man ...this is what music and entertainment was...!!!

  • wow amazing...if i was at that award show i would have been too live!

  • When I was younger I use to do the dances...lol

  • he was a jerkoff but he had some awesome albums thanks to la and face teddy he could get busy

  • bobby may had been on drugs but he can dance his ass off like mj
