Hol up, The 5 Heartbeats was just a made up group? (Ft. General Mills story)

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

I don't think it was based on the Dells, but the music is from the Dells

Yeah I had to edit lol. I'm pretty sure The Dells didn't have even close to the amount of drama The Five Heartbeats did lol. Matter of fact I think The Dells kept the same personnel longer than any other group.

The fukk?

fun fact: i didnt see the movie until they put it on netflix last year or the year before whenever that was. folks were telling me my black card was looking funny in the light.

@OP...

Might not be who he think it is

I always heard it was based on The Dells.

Me and my brother almost came to blows over this movie.

I flew home to visit my folks and fam during the holidays one year. My brother threw a house party. After the party and everyone left me and my brother were in his kitchen doing shots of grey goose shootin the shyt.

We got on the topic of the Temptations movie. I said...

Me - its crazy how Leon played in both flicks right?

Brother - both flicks? the Above The Rim nikka?? naw he was only in 5 Heartbeats

Me - i thought you knew movies. He was in both...LITTLE BROTHER


Brother - No. HE WAS ONLY IN 5 HEARTBEATS.....nikka

Me - motherfukker... you heard what i said..


My lil bro stepped to me and we started wrestling in the kitchen drunk as fukk.


His wife breaks it up and we are still yelling and arguing. I get the bright idea to call our parents and ask them. in our drunken state it did not occur to us to use Google.


Called moms and pops at 4am slurring our words and yelling over each other trying to ask the question.


My mom was like WTF and hung up on us.


The next morning she called and cussed me out like i had never been cussed out before. For waking her up

Moms told me this back in the day. It was based around the Dells, the 4 Tops, and other bands of the Motown era

Well when have you ever heard people talking about how cold The 5 Heartbeats were or singing their songs

 

[TEH]

Thought it was the Delphonics not the Dells
