Took a 6-Sigma class, or some Lean Management thing in Boston about 15 years ago. The instructor was apparently the 5th member until he was kicked out just before they got famous.
Color Me Bad were well known at the time for stashing their cash in their shoulder pads. “The bigger the shoulders; the greater the riches” was their motto.
My first concert at Cal Expo Amphitheater! Went with ma and her friends from work. I wanna sex you up was such a jam back then, kinda awkward with mom and her work gal-pals.
I was 15 years old. It was Christmas. I was at my best friends house exchanging gifts. I open a CD shaped package to discover… a Color Me Badd CD.
WTF!?
My friend and I grew up on bands like Testament, Sepultura, Judas Priest, and early Metallica. We didn’t listen to any R&B. It was super weird, and a growth moment for me. I learned how to feign excitement over a gift that I literally never even took out of the plastic wrap. I also learned that gift-giving is about understanding what the *other* person enjoys and setting aside your own preferences.
I remember seeing some “where are they now” show on VH1 or something- and the George Michael looking lead singer was working at like a tire shop in Oklahoma, and had gained like 200 pounds and walked with a cane. Life apparently sexed him up.
At least the Kenny G guy did well for himself, he became a pretty successful music producer writing/producing songs for Whitney Houston, Celine dion, Kelly clarkson…
These guys were top of the charts in their time…girls went nuts. I don’t get the all the bashing. It’s like any generational music…that passed through its time. It phases out every thing changes.

Isn’t that Color Me Badd?
It’s amazing what we were willing to sex up in the 90s. Yikes.
They put their dicks in boxes.
My first girlfriend dated the fellow on the left prior to ’93. Like six degrees of Kevin Bacon, I’m two degrees of Color Me Badd.
1. I HATE how much I loved their music.
2. Who knew Dan Hawkins was in Color Me Badd before he was in the Darkness…

Color me badd
This is what happens when you order an r&b group from Temu.
Terence Trent D’Arby, Vanilla Ice, George Michael, Kenny G.

I have their cassette still…😎
I wanna sex you up
The super group of COLOR ME BADD composed of:
Kenny G
George Michael
The one guy from Milli Vanilli
and Snow!
Those guys were the warm up music at make out parties of my youth.
Ooooooooo ooooooooo oooooo oooo oooh…
Good times. Once in a while I’ll listen to their hits. Really.
Dream on, dream away, I think I’m gonna have to stay, ohhh ohhh, sttttaayyy. I adore, Mi Amor.
I grew up in Oklahoma so… yeah.
Can’t get any more 90s than this group. Almost satyrical.
Oh yeah i remember. Very sexy songs…
Not sure of there name but I’m still rocking that look in 23′
Shoulder pads. To make every one seem more masculine
The super group made up of Milli, Vanilla Ice, George Michael and Kenny G.
Oh god! Emotional damage!
I was 15 years old. It was Christmas. I was at my best friends house exchanging gifts. I open a CD shaped package to discover… a Color Me Badd CD.

I remember them, so I guess…
Color Me Oldd.
They look exactly what the ’90s looked like just before they became the ’90s.
I still say, the ‘80’s didn’t end until the second season of Friends (94-95).
This is what happens when Oklahoma city produces a new jack swing quartet.
I told my mom that I needed that particular cassette cuz it had “I want to sex you up” on it
Which she wasn’t horribly excited to hear cuz I was like 8
Saw them open up for Paula Abdul, early 90s.

And now.
Milli Vanilli, Vanilla Ice, George Michael, and Kenny G.
Aren’t those the guys who sang “Dick in a Box” ?
It was a super group staring Terence Trent d’arby, (white rap sensation) Snow, George Michael, and Kenny G. Anyone who says differently is a liar.
I remember seeing some “where are they now” show on VH1 or something- and the George Michael looking lead singer was working at like a tire shop in Oklahoma, and had gained like 200 pounds and walked with a cane. Life apparently sexed him up.

The super group that gave us Terrence Trent Darby, Snow, George Michael, Kenny G!
I saw them open for Paula Abdul in like 1991 and it was a m a z i n g. 😂

Do you think the photo editor saw the name of the band and thought it was instructions for how to edit the photo?
