The Story

OriginUnited StatesGenrecontemporary R&B, rhythm and blues, new jack swingLabelMCA Inc., MCA Records, Interscope Records

Bobby Brown is an American singer, songwriter, rapper, and dancer known for his dynamic contributions to contemporary R&B and new jack swing, often alongside producer Teddy Riley. He first made waves as a member of New Edition, lending his voice to hits like "Candy Girl" and "Cool It Now" before venturing out on his own. His solo career brought us memorable tracks including "My Prerogative," "Don't Be Cruel," and "Every Little Step," showcasing his ability to blend rhythm and blues with hip-hop and dance-pop influences. With songs like "Humpin' Around" and "Roni," Brown carved out a distinct sound that still echoes in the genre today.
