What is NEW Jack Swing? This is New Jack Swing

"My Prerogative" was the most significant "New Jack Swing" track. It brought the sound to the masses in a big #1 POP (and #1 R&B) way in '88-'89.

Jeff Redd LIVE @ The Apollo Theater
I remember when I saw this for the first time. Ninjas were wearing overalls and it was FRESH!

Only a few people have rocked the Apollo ("Showtime" era) harder than this.

(and look who was singing backup for him....)
 
Mayne I be banging those joints on my iPod daily all I need to complete my collection is the Jeff Redd joint thats the last of the new jack artist that I cannot find.
 
Teddy Riley has got to be one of the richest katz in the music business at the moment, since the mid 80's he's produced for nearly all the top recording artist out there and with hit results. He's been a top producer since his late teens.... The boy from Harlem done good.

I hold my hand up and say that I was guilty of rockin a flat top hairstyle back in the height of the swing beat era. ...... :D

It was still New Jack Swing. Teddy Riley gave it a name, but the style of music was the same.
 
New Jack swing was basically when HipHop and R&B were first merging into one art form.

I used to hate this shit, If it wasn't gangsta rap I didn't want nothing to do with it.

But it grew on me, I pump all of this now...lol

He filed bankruptcy a few years back. Boy I tell ya black folks and thier money:smh:

Producer Teddy Riley in bankruptcy court VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP) -- Teddy Riley, who has produced albums for Michael Jackson, Bobby Brown, 'N Sync and other acts, filed for protection from creditors in bankruptcy court. The 39-year-old R and B recording artist hopes to reorganize his finances under Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy law. Riley's bankruptcy lawyer, Michael Lehman, said Riley didn't have enough money to pay mounting income-tax liabilities. The filing shows Riley owes $1.45 million in federal income taxes for 2003-2006 and $243,855 in Virginia taxes for 2001-3003 and 2006. He also owes Virginia Beach $35,417 in real estate taxes. Riley won Grammys in 1992 for producing Jackson's Dangerous album and in 1996 for the song No Diggity by his group Blackstreet, which broke up in 1999. "As a result of the downturn in the music industry and having not been able to produce a successful record of late, my income dropped precipitously," Riley said in an affidavit filed with the bankruptcy court. "Consequently, I am unable to meet my substantial liabilities."

karma for exploiting all of them artist from around the way like Red & Today; I hope Eric from Blackstreet and super producer BernardBell(who was playing the bass in NewJackCity) got theirs off top or theyre included too; this lil nigga had a whole crew full of yes men when he was down there in Va according to this kat who used to be down with him
Remember seeing kat around the way, always trying to floss the drop Benz on some hood superstar shit around the Rink and whatnot
:smh:
What, no
JamesIngram,
BoyGeorge,
BobbyBrown Ghostbusters II vid with DaddyKane making cameoes,
ABC ( who used a similar sound influenced by Biv who developed their sound during that 90/1 era),
the 'KING of the FairSkinned Brother Obsession of the time'
(of coked out mindsets) AL B SURE
or someone that was heavily influenced by the era like Kwame
( who actually did that OnFire LloydBanks track)?

The whole Uptown boatride & UptownUnpluggged MTV shit was heavily influenced by the movement which then spurn Puff's sound & Mary's feel
