HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOBBY BROWN
Bobby Brown is an American singer and songwriter who rose to fame as lead vocalist of the R&B group, New Edition. In 2017, this unique boy band was honored with a BET “Lifetime Achievement Award”.
By the late 1980s, Bobby Brown decided to embark on a solo career, and produced hits like “My Prerogative”, Humpin’ Around”, and today’s song choice.
His marriage to singer Whitney Houston (in 1992) garnered significant media attention throughout the couples’ tumultuous relationship (that would last for many years).
On this very day, February 5th, 1969, he was born in Boston, Massachusetts, as Robert Barisford Brown.
