New Jack Swing. 2009 BET Awards


On the 2009 BET Awards R&B Singer/Songwriter Ne-Yo invited some of his favorite singers to come on stage and perform. When the music started for “I Want Her” and Keith Sweat skipped on stage New Jack Swing was resurrected. Keith Sweat’s performance was followed by, The Fathers of New Jack Swing, Guy performing “I like” and BBD (Bell Biv DeVoe) who performed their hit “Poison.” The movement of the crowd itself demonstrates the power of music. The energy level jumped from 100 to 300 just by the drop of a beat. A short intermission of dancing brought you back to simpler times of the late 80’s and early 90’s when New Jack Swing reigned, by the time Ne-Yo joined the stage with BBD and he crooned “It’s driving me out of my mind, that girl is poison.” There is no question as to who starts the party or rocks the stage- then, now, and forever.
