Color Me Badd Makes The News

Do you realize it was twenty six years ago that Color Me Badd got together and first started thinking about how to terrorize the world with songs like I Wanna Sex You Up? Well, Bryan Abrams from the group has a warrant out for his arrest in Oklahoma which is where he lives now. Back in April, Bryan was charged with his twelfth domestic violence incident and given probation. He had certain things he needed to do as part of that probation and hasn't done any of them. His wife at the time is currently divorcing him.

How can you be busted for domestic violence 12 times in less than a decade and only receive counseling? Since he is blowing that off I guess he doesn't think anything will happen to him except a few hours of inconvenience when he gets booked. Apparently Oklahoma doesn't take domestic violence that seriously.

This was the Vanilla Ice one, right? Whatever happened to the other ones? You know, the Kenny G one, the George Michael one and the Terence Trent D'Arby one?

StewMcG said...

HA! I remember when these tools played an assembly at my high school in '88. (They were still known as the Levi 501 commercial guys then.) They spent the entire time on campus trying to pick up 10th graders. lol

Henriette said...

All I remember about them is their inability to spell and their plucked eye brows.

Susan said...

FSP - OMG. Your character analysis is spot on. Ha ha.

Orvilla Bedinbacher said...

Yay TTD!!! Sign Your Name was just soooo good. I still dj that song.

TalksTooMuch said...

I am gonna have Wishing Well in my head all morning, not a badd thing

Megan said...

I was probably 11 or 12 and knew all of the words to I Wanna Sex You Up. Ha!

TalksTooMuch said...

I always associate TTD with We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off although I know it is Jermaine someoneorother. Uh huh! Same time period

timebob said...

ugh, these guys used to live in the town next to me in LI. They were in Glen Cove. They would drive around in a station wagon trying to pick up teenage girls when they had a few hit songs out. It was embarassing watching them pander for attention.

They were all gross.

Orvilla Bedinbacher said...

hahaha @talkstoomuch omg i have that on vinyl from when i was younger...Jermaine Stewart. We dont have to take our clothes off. To have a good time, oh no. we can dance and party, all night! and crink some cherry wine, ah huh.

Its just U said...

26 years!! Thanks for that.
They always remind me of the movie New Jack City.
Cheesy song for a ridiculous movie.
Even when I was a 12 year old girl I knew how tacky they were.
Oh, and I love TTD. Pity he's such an arsehole.

Brian said...

TTD's best tune is "If you let me stay."

All for Love....

HannahBanana said...

12 CHARGES?!?! Shit if he lived over here, I'm proud to say, he would be locked up for a long minute.

HannahBanana said...

And I co sign with all lovers of Terrence Trent D'Arby.....sign ur name is still one of my fave songs ever.

CanadianMiss said...

That video! Those guys were badd ass!

Jeneral said...

Funny that he's still working the same sculpted beard on a now much larger chin.

DontRainOnMyPrada said...

OMG...I'd never seen this video (thanks VIP)!! Now I know what inspired D*ck in a Box!!

TracySwingKid said...

You know, I think I am still 20 years old until I read that Color Me Badd was 26 freakin' years ago. My girlfriends and I went to see them and Paula Abdul in concert.

mistang said...

@FSP - Yes! My friends and I described them the same way!

Bangagong said...

Lol The "Kenny G one" is a music producer and songwriter and he's married to Tamyra Gray, who was on American Idol aaaaaaaagggggges ago. The rest of them, I have no idea about.

Alexa Rose said...

Ahh, Color me Badd were on one of my favorite Beverly Hills 90210 episodes ever where Donna's mom gets caught cheating at the hotel where CMD is staying. Oh to go back to the early 90's.

ladyfoxy said...

Ok. Ok. I have to admit I LOVED THESE GUYS !!!!! No one can obsess like a teenage girl and I was like 13 when they first hit the the charts. I bought all of the albums (inc the remixes :) and had their Tiger Beat posters on my binder in my locker. Ahhh...and Bryan was my favorite. As a matter of fact, I saw them here in Oceanside last month with Tone Toni Tony and Jon B. Bryan was waaaaaay out of shape and could barely sing. The other 2 (Sam left the group) kept looking at him like he was going to explode. So sad. He has problems for sure.
