Bobby Brown: biography

Bobby Brown is rightly considered one of the world’s most famous performers. His career began early, and his biography is full of many events. As a performer, Bobby became famous in his youth and became increasingly popular every year.

Childhood and youth:

Robert Barisford “Bobby” Brown was born on February 05, 1969, in Massachusetts Boston. His mother, Carole Elizabeth, worked as a teacher, and his father, Herbert James, was a builder; his family had six children.

In his youth, Bobby robbed shops and was involved in gangs. When the guy was 11 years old, one of his friends had got stab wounds; the guy hadn’t survived. This incident became crucial in Bobby’s life and pushed him to redefine his life. The guy began to treat education seriously. James Brown was his idol from an early age, and Bobby dreamed of becoming similar to him.

Music:

The musical career of the performer began in the boy band “New Edition”; the group sang songs in R&B style. With Bobby as a participant in the band, such hits as “Candy Girl,” “Cool It Now,” and “Mr. Telephone Man,” “Can You Stand the Rain” were recorded.

When the performer was 17 years old, he was excluded from the group as a result of the voting of the participants. They considered that the defiant behavior of Brown put the reputation of the band and the career of each of the members at risk.

1986 Bobby released his first solo album, “King of Stage.” The “Girlfriend” song from this disk headed the Billboard chart among music in R’n’B style and took the 57th position in the main chart. If not considering this event, the debut disk hadn’t drawn attention to itself.

The second disc under “Don’t Be Cruel” was released in 1988. With its release Bobby Brown became popular. The album became platinum eight times, and over 8 million copies were sold. This disk made the performer a well-known person, in particular, because of his five compositions which got to the ten best tracks according to Billboard:

“Don’t Be Cruel” – 8th position.
“Every Little Step” – 3rd position.
“Rock Wit’ Cha” – 7th position.
“Roni” – 3rd position.
“My Prerogative” – 1st position. In 2004 Britney Spears recorded her cover version of this song.

In 1989 the performer participated in the recording of audio to the movie “Ghostbusters II.” The released single “On Our Own” took second in the leading national charts. Bobby also had a small role in the movie mentioned above.

For the development and fixing of the success, the publishers released several discs with remixes of the most popular songs of Bobby Brown. With an unceasing mix and fragments of the “Snap!” band, the track took 14th in the British charts. The album with the rhythm-and-blues version entered TOP-10 popular albums in Australia.

In 1992 the 3rd album of the performer was released, and it occupied the 2nd line of the Billboard chart. The disc sold more than one million copies, but it had yet to repeat the previous album’s success.

In 1997 one more album under the title “Forever” was released. Brown had settled such terms of the contract, which provided him complete control over the creative component; he had composed all the songs independently. As a result, the album received the 61st position in the charts, and all the pieces had yet to enter the singles charts.

Personal life:

The relations of the performer are not less bright than his career. Bobby became the father for the first time when he was 17; his son Landon was born in 1986 to Melika Williams. From 1989 to 1991, the singer had been in relations with Kim Ward; in this family, two children were born – a daughter La’Princia and a son Bobby Jr.

Bobby had the most exciting union with the singer Whitney Houston. Once, the man had rushed into the make-up room to Whitney Houston, presented her with flowers, and began to kiss her. The decent woman hadn’t estimated this trick, but Brown wasn’t in despair and, after a while, came to Whitney with a ring.

Later they had supper at the restaurant, and because of the waiter, the salt had fallen onto the singer’s dress. The waiter began to shake the salt from her dress, but jealous Bobby had beaten him. Whitney liked this reaction very much. After that, the man was hit by the restaurant security guards, where the couple had had supper.

In the summer of 1992, Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston married; 800 guests were present at their celebration. It is the best-known ceremony; the couple’s wedding was an event of the decade. The mother of Whitney dissuaded the girl from this wedding till the last moment. As for the father, he stood apart all the time without approving his daughter’s choice. In a year, their daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown was born.

During Whitney’s shootings in the movie “Bodyguard,” the journalists talked about her love affair with Costner. Bobby made jealous scenes with a beating of wear and alcohol. Despite the similar violence, Brown could lead a relatively quiet life for several months. There had hardly been no quarrels; Bobby raised a hand against Houston; he also could tell her to get out of the house. In 1997 the singer left Bobby. In a short time, Houston would release a new album and begin performing at the concerts.

During this period, Bobby underwent alcoholism treatment, tore all communications with his former girlfriends, and again tried to court Whitney. She forgave her husband, and the couple was together again. The singer tried to forget the resumed quarrels and problems in her career with the help of drugs. She got some issues with her voice, and Whitney began to be fond of drugs and refused to perform at the concerts. Bobby again raised his hand at his wife, returned to alcohol abuse, and had extramarital affairs.

Once when he returned home, he found Whitney unconscious. According to the words Bobby, at that moment, he understood that nobody except him would be able to help Houston to get rid of her addictions. He supported his wife in every possible way, and already it seemed that she had recovered, but Whitney hadn’t given up her habits.

In 2007 the marriage of Brown and Houston had finally broken up. The singer couldn’t bear Bobby’s beating, hard booze, and numerous betrayals. After the divorce, the right of guardianship over the daughter was granted to her mother as Brown had problems with the law and had an alcohol addiction.

In 2012, in February, Whitney Houston died in a hotel room. As a result of the police investigation, it became clear that there were several causes of her death: drowning, atherosclerotic heart trouble, and use of cocaine. Whitney’s death became a great tragedy for Bobby and Kristina.

Bobby Brown and Alicia Etheredge married in Hawaii in June of the same year. The words of the musician, Alicia, helped him to recover after his divorce from Whitney Houston and to cope with his drug and alcohol addiction. They artificial an official proposal to her during the concert in Jacksonville. All of the children of Bobby attended their wedding except for Kristina Brown.

In July 2015, Bobby’s daughter, Kristina, died after a six-month coma. Alcohol, cocaine, and morphine were detected in the girl’s blood, and bruises and scrapes were found on her body. Later, her boyfriend, Nick Gordon, was deemed responsible for Kristina’s death. From the point of view of the Court, the man was legally guilty of the accident. Proceeding from the case papers, Nick left the girl in an inadequate state after the quarrel, alone with her problems.

The tragedy knocked down Bobby Brown; in his first interview after the death of his daughter on the air The Real TV Show, he said:

“We prayed, all of us hoped for a miracle during these six months. But when God calls you, there is nothing left to do”.

Bobby Brown, at present:

With the present wife, Alicia Etheredge, the performer brings up three children: Claus’s son and two daughters – Bodhi and Hendrix.

In January 2017, the biographic mini-series “The New Edition Story” appeared on the screen. All six members of the band became co-producers of this series. The same year Bobby as a participant in the “New Edition” band, received Lifetime Achievement Trumpet Award.

Currently, the singer leads his account on Instagram, and posts mini-videos, photos of his children, and events in his life. On May 10, 2018, the actor published a photograph with the new team of the group under the name “RBRM,” which is deciphered as Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, and Mike. In the signature to the photo, Bobby announced the concerts, which are set for May 18 in Atlanta and June 16 in Detroit.
