Ted talking in show business as a male singer. Not your average breh. When Usher got married especially to that George Wallace looking woman.

Thank you.

I don't know why - wait, I do know why people are taking issue with what Teddy said here:
They didn't listen to the interview to know the context.

Imma say some names, and think about what happened to their careers when they got married:

Jermaine Jackson
Babyface
Bobby Brown
Karyn White
Tamia
Brandy
Nivea

Teddy Riley is used to getting women taken from him since back in the day.

Also lost a lot of money on Ponzi Schemes, bad investments..........He has a right to have trust issues. Don't mask it by talking about you busy working on your career. :mjlol:

Either his wife runs him,or he was being unfaithful and kept having his wife harrass him because she couldn't trust him.
But i suppose when you have his type of money at risk,it may be hard to just tell your wife to leave you the hell alone once you tie the knot:francis:
Better get that prenup,or just be righteously attached.

What’s on that record is better than Remember The Time? :usure:

Teddy brought his A game to Dangerous. That shyt made New Jack Sound futuristic instead of the standard 1988-1990 party style that 99% of New Jack records rocked with.

Listen to what breh was spitting on this record. What New Jack record talked about homelessness, social inequality, incurable disease (AIDS) and the fact the people were more concerned about his business than trying to fix some of the shyt in the world that wasn’t being addressed

The coli always does this. Make an opinion without the context.

Teddy was basically saying the TIMING of the marriage was a terrible business decision. Bobby got married a couple months before the release of his third album, which Teddy feels affected the sales of that album.

Bobby seemed adamant about getting married, which is fine, but I believe he should have waited until after the release of the album.

He is right when it comes to Male R&B singers.

A good example of this was Usher.

Women like the allure of the Male singer being single. Especially when he is still young.

Teddy has already said in an interview before this that Teddy wanted Bobby to do more songs, but Bobby was more focused on the wedding at that point. Teddy used some of that material for Blackstreet. Teddy wanted Bobby to have more songs..

And if we go by that Bobby movie, the chicks in his family were the ones getting on Bobby to lock Whitney down..

True but nowadays as long as you're not dating pawgs.

Usher may not sell as much as before but he still has that black women support because he exclusively dates them.
