Robert “Bobby” Barisford Brown is an American R&B singer, songwriter, dancer, and actor from Boston.

Early Life
Robert “Bobby” Barisford Brown was born on the 5th of February, 1969, in Boston. Brown is the son of Caroline Elizabeth and Herbert James Brown. Brown grew up in Roxbury’s Orchard Park Projects.
His first taste of being onstage occurred when he was three and one of his childhood idols, James Brown, performed in Boston. This performance sparked a dream of becoming a singer.
Career
New Edition was founded by 9-year-old Brown and childhood friends Michael Bivins, Ricky Bell, Travis Pettus, and Corey Rackley who all knew each other growing up in the Orchard Park Projects in Boston.
Brown was also familiar with Tresvant since they were children. Travis Pettus would also leave the group and they became a quartet of Bell, Tresvant, Bivins, and Brown. In 1982, they became a quintet when their manager Brooke Payne insisted on bringing in his nephew Ronnie DeVoe, to complete the group.
Following his exit from New Edition, Brown signed a contract with his former group’s label, MCA (which had earlier promised Brown a solo deal if he had decided to leave New Edition), and also signed with manager Steven Machat, who had also worked with New Edition.
Brown laid low for more than a year while working on his follow-up album. With the help of Machaut and MCA representative Louil Silas, Brown began working with some of the top R&B producers and songwriters of the time, including Babyface, Antonio ‘L.A.’ Reid and Teddy Riley.
He made his first reunited appearance with New Edition at the 1990 MTV Video Music Awards. Their performance later sparked the recording of Bell Biv DeVoe’s ‘Word to the Mutha!’ in 1991; on which Brown, Ralph Tresvant, and later NE member Johnny Gill were included.

3 Humbling Lessons from Bobby Brown
Let’s take a look at some of the strongest lessons we can learn from him:
1. Focus Only on the Present
Stop regretting the past. Stop worrying about the future. Focus on the present. Focus on the now. Feel the sun on your face. Feel the wind behind on your back. Hear the wind as it blows the tree branches. Dig your toes into the sand. Listen when people talk.
2. Listen to Your Body
When you’re exhausted, don’t fight it. Take a nap or sleep. When you feel stressed out, take a break. When you feel sick from eating that 10th donut, well, maybe you shouldn’t have done that. Learn to listen to the signals in your body and respond in the right way.

I think Bobby Brown is a loser, in fact I believe with all my heart and soul our beloved Whitney Houston would still be alive if he never walked into her life, or atleast if he didn’t send away her loving female best friend Robin. Robin truly was a caring loving true honest friend to our beloved Whitney Houston. I miss and love you always Whitney Houston. Always missed but never forgotten

I mean after years people like Smokey Robinson The temptations Stevie Wonder I mean they don’t have as much money as they should.These people have been ROBBED by the system,and there’s nothing they can do about it.
