Almost every stylistic choice I made from 1984 to 1993 had some connection with New Edition and all it's off-shoots. My doodle of choice in high school was this graffiti version of the letters SBM which stood for "Sensitive Black Man" which was all because of Ralph Tresvant's drippy "Sensitivity". I've performed the entire routine from "Poison" at Spider with absolutely no shame. "If It Isn't Love" is one of my all time favorite songs and videos.
I know all the words to "Iesha". I spent hours of my junior high school life discussingg the finer points of the running man routine in "Every Little Step".
I even give Johnny Gill's goofy ass a pass.
Not liking New Edition is a total deal breaker for me. I don't even know if I could look at you if you uttered unacceptable blasphemy towards Ronny, Bobby, Ricky, Mike, Ralph and Johnny too. And that also includes Boys II Men, ABC, BBD - the East Coast Family.
Word to the Mutha.

Iesha actually played on my iPod a couple of days ago. I realized I've been getting the words wrong all these years. During the breakdown they say Ronny, Bobby, Ricky and Mike. I've been saying Ronny, Bobby with your might since forever. It never made sense to me but that's what I thought they were saying. It was a very lock the cash box moment.
