157.0. "Color Me Badd!!" by CGVAX2::LEMIRE () Thu Mar 05 1992 20:01

    Did anyone catch Arsino (is that spelling correct?) Hall last night.
    Themusical guest were Color Me Badd. I first noticed them while
    watching either the MTV awards, or the Billboard awards a while back.
    I have to say that after last nights preformances I was Impressed.
    At first I said Oh great, another New Kids On The Block. But these
    kids can sing, as well as dance!  I have of course heard the do 
    A capella on the Grammys, but last night, they did a short version of 
    a song they actually sang for Bon Jovie in a movie theater.  They
    also sang a acoustic ballad from the cd, and ther new single All For
    Love, which sound alot like the New Kids type of music. Now I like 
    Pop and Dance style music anyway.  Bell Biv Devo, and Michael Jackson
    are some of my favorites.  But I didn't realyy like to mush of the doo
    wapp pop untill these guys.  I would like to know more about them.
    Last night they said they were together for about 8 years.  Any other
    albums ?  How about names ? I know there from Oaktown, did the Hammer
    play a part in making them big?
    
    Also how is the cd?

        All I can say about them is they've got one helluva blend.  Their
    voices compliment each other well.  The Cd's pretty good with a couple
    of tracks now getting airplay..."I adore", "I wanna sex you up", and
    "All for Love".  I wanna sex you up was from the movie New Jack City.
    Whenever I DJ for a younger crowd, I get a lot of requests for them.

    These kids are NOTHING like NKOTB, who are talentless IMVHO (and I've
    seen them at work in Starr's studio before!)...these kids *can* sing.
    
    >Last night they said they were together for about 8 years.  Any other
    >albums ?  
    
    No, this is their first.
    
    >I know there from Oaktown, did the Hammer play a part in making them big?
    
    You mean Oakland?  *NOT*!  These kids are from Oklahoma City, OK!  I
    know, OKC is like my 2nd home here in the USA, and I used to watch
    these kids rehearse at the Middle School on Klatton St. in downtown
    OKC.  They'd rehearse their singing/dancing there, or on the roof of
    apt. complex which one of the dudes lived in.
    
    Fwiw, they're all real young (early 20s)

    many children and give up makin records.

    All accept the lead singer Bryan Abramms.  He's promised to run off
    with me as long as my husband agrees.
