About
Bell Biv DeVoe on Tour
Since their days as members of the groundbreaking boy band New Edition, Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins and Ronnie DeVoe have known how to command an audience with soulful harmonies and fierce moves. As Bell Biv DeVoe, the trio specializes in what they call "hip-hop, smoothed out on the R&B tip with a pop feel (appeal) to it," and they bring that concept to the stage during their high-energy shows.
Bell Biv DeVoe in Concert
In the '80s, childhood friends Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins and Ronnie DeVoe exploded out of Roxbury, Massachusetts, as part of New Edition, the boy band that laid down the template for later acts like New Kids on the Block, the Backstreet Boys and One Direction. When New Edition went on hiatus in 1990, new jack swing pioneers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, who had worked with the group on hits like "If It Isn't Love," encouraged the three to splinter off and form their own act. Bell Biv DeVoe's first album, 1990's slick yet hard-edged Poison, was a smash, spawning videos that ruled MTV and singles that topped the United States' R&B charts. In 1993 they released their second album, Hootie Mack, which featured the Boogie Down Productions–sampling "Above the Rim" and the sultry slow jam "Something in Your Eyes." The trio took a break from releasing music until 2001, when they released BBD, which leaned into West Coast hip-hop influences while still showcasing the group's sensitive side on songs like "I Ain't Going Nowhere." In the years that followed, Bell, Bivins and DeVoe toured as part of New Edition's reunion tours, performing Bell Biv DeVoe sets as part of the show. 2017's Three Stripes, BBD's fourth album, showed off the trio's grown and sexy side as well as its appreciation of modern R&B trends.

by kidkole on 8/22/09IP CASINO RESORT AND SPA - BiloxiThey played to the audience, gave them what they wanted and more. They engaged the audience and seemed much better because of it. It was good entertainment.

by Shay73 on 8/22/09IP CASINO RESORT AND SPA - BiloxiThis concert was great!!!! The entire concert was hyped. Everything flowed flawlessly. I'm really happy I went. I really loved when they took it back to 1983. I was 10 then, and I actually felt like I was transported back to 1983 last night. I also loved when Ricky Bell sung "I Do Need You" and "When Will I See You Smile Again". Those two songs are classic slow jams. Well, as you can see, I had a great time. Thanks for making me feel like a teenager again =)

by latham1545 on 8/22/09IP CASINO RESORT AND SPA - BiloxiI have been a fan of Bell Biv Devoe and New Edition since their start. The concert was really great, however it was not long enough. I really thought they would have had an opening act. If you want to count the DJ as the opening act, he did not play long enough. A conert should be at least 2 hours long. It only lasted 1 hour and fifteen minutes.

by Sharedtech on 8/22/09IP CASINO RESORT AND SPA - BiloxiThis concert was off the chain from the beginning to the end. The opening DJ was awesome. The dance moves the voices were the same. The guys looked amazing and you could just close your eyes and envision yourself back in the 80's. They looked the same.. The music provided by the live band just made you feel good. The arena was perfect and they really connected with the audience. I did not know what to expect from the venue being inside the IP casino in Biloxi but this was perfect. I had to drive 10 hrs from Dallas, TX but it was well worth the time.....I would do it all over again. They were jamming so hard and the sold out crowd was so into it that the floor was shaking. Now that is a concert and a jam fest

by simplyelegant68 on 8/22/09IP CASINO RESORT AND SPA - BiloxiAlthough their reportoire of songs as a group is not extensive, because theiy were part of New Edition, they provided the audience with a wonderful sampling of songs from the 80's and 90's. The DJ even gave us a great sampling of hip-hop from the 80's and 90's which created an unbelieveable atmosphere prior to the entrance of BBD to the stage. The artists were very interactive and engaged with the audience and genuinely seemed to be having a fun time. I'm so glad that I went!

by rosyc on 8/22/09IP CASINO RESORT AND SPA - BiloxiI got these tickets for my husband as a Father's Day gift. We all joke he is stuck in the 80's. Well he went there and now he will never comeback. The show was a danceclub and concert all in one. Next concert we go to at the IP we're bringing our kids so we can stay they night and party the night away!!!!!
