[King Poetic]

[Nemesis]

Dont be cruel changed the game....

 

[Doobie Doo]

Wait a minute, Bobby Brown's Don't Be Cruel and New Edition dropped two blassics on the same day?

For me it was always the entire Don't be Cruel album vs. if it isn't love/can you stand the rain

Bobby just had more for me.

[I love Latina women]

Don't Be Cruel!
The stars aligned for Bobby with that album
That album is an album EVERY artist's wishes and hopes to have
Teddy Riley, Babyface and L.A. Reid worked magic on that album with Bobby

 

[TEH]

Bobby is a classic

Roni alone

But it’s NE till I die

I’m more mad at OP making us choose

But if it’s only me alone I’m voting NE in this thread

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

I can bump Don't be Cruel nonstop no skips

In fact my 80s new jack/r&b playlist will consist of Don't Be Cruel..then add in

Can you stand the rain
NE HeartBreak
If it isn't love
Crucial

This is no diss to NE..that Bobby album is just too strong

That said Crucial is my shyt



"Hearrrt! Beatin strong
I was serious..my love was serious for
Youuuuuuu:shaqsing:"

 

[Sinnerman]

Nothing on Don't be Cruel is as good as "Can you Stand the Rain", but Don't be Cruel is the better album overall

 

[Ol’Otis]

[General Mills]
