B2k - Page 2

DELTAQTE · #16 05-05-2002, 03:55 AM

Ok, so both groups came to our studios Friday, we had it planned that one group would talk while the other group gave "drops"(that is what you hear on the radio, like an artist saying "You're listening to Hot 97!" etc) and then we had a meet and greet with about 40 fans.

I have to tell you ladies, I'm 5'8 and the only one out of both groups that even came CLOSE to my chin is Batman from IMX. They are all SHORT and I felt like Qte the Jolly Red Giant.

I didn't notice any "How you Doin" tendencies or anything, they both were very sweet, but it was B2k that just blew us away at how they are one of the biggest acts in the world and NONE of them have an ego. They ran around our studio and one of them(I think Raz-B) hit one of the members of IMx playfully and then hid behind me and wrapped his arms around me talking about "Protect me! Help!" It was so cute. So I must say that they have either Damn good parents or Damn good managers, cause those boys have their head on right.

They met EVERY single fan(plus a few more) that came to the studio. Every single girl cried and both Imx/B2k hugged them and took pics. The concert that night was cool also, but I felt kinda bad for IMx at first cause you have 2000 girls screaming "B2k! B2k!" even before the concert started. But then Imx came out first and started talking off clothes and erythang so that shut them up!

Well that's my report on them. If B2k comes to your town, I suggest that you meet them, they are the sweetest(shortest) boys I've met in the biz so far.

See why you got me laughing a choking on my juice all at the same time.

That is really nice to hear that they have such good manners and have their head on straight. Which member of B2K is the brother of Batman from Imx? I know himwhen I see him, because they look a like if you ask me. Also what are thea ges of both groups if they gave that info out. I can't believe Imx is all grown up.

They are okay for teen boppers but I would never go out and buy their cd, much like I wouldn't lil romeo or bow wow. I just hate the fact that sometimes little kids have to sing grown people songs in order to make it. Like their song "Gotta Be" What do those little boys know about being anybody's everything. LOL.

Thanks CT4,

I was really just looking for the ages of Imx even though I had stated both groups. I can't believe that Imx is all grown up. Dang they will be 21 this year. Well my man is the the Little Drummer Boy...aka..LDB.....and look he is legal now!!

I can't say I'm a true fan of B2K (even though I like a few of their songs), but I can say I LOVE to see young entertainers (especially young, black Americans) on the rise. Some may think their songs are lame, but hey, every entertainer can't reach all audiences. Besides, I think they are mostly for the youngens

I'm not going to hate on them. I can only love them. Go B2K! (okay, I went a little overboard

)

DELTAQTE · #22 05-07-2002, 01:49 PM

Thanks for putting the info up, I knew they were related somehow, but I didn't know who was cousin or brother to who. You couldn't tell anyway, because both groups interacted with each other so well, like they were all brothers.

The concert that night was no joke. The little girls broke both barriers and we had to have major security. They love them some B2k.

We have lil bow wow coming to our town on May 31st, and if this concert was any indication of what's coming up, we need the national guard to keep these girls at bay

Yup you should

, but I can't say to much, because I was doing the same thing about LDB. Ok, shame on us both.

LMAO!

THey aren't THAT young!

I guess I just don't see it. But then again I can not make it through that video "My First Time" without the STRONG urge to CHANGE THE CHANNEL! That song is awful!

And I still remember them from when they were kids with JACKED up hair and waaaaay too much jewelry with "Never Lie" (which was, incidentally, the jam).

Girl you are taking me back with that "Never Lie" song.

Did anyone notice the little girl who played Gwendolyn on "Family Matters" in their new video(Gwendolyn had a recurring role as Little Richie's girlfriend(for lack of a better word)). She plays one of the guys love interest.

Also, Lil Fizz's interest is his cousin, Janae(?). She's in 3 of the B2K/IMX videos and has an album coming out. This was so cute to me because they look so much alike.

Exactly! Every time I see them and 3LW (grown azz heffa--they need a whuppin'), I'm like "look at these chil'ren!" Those boys need to keep their shirts on, flaunting their skinny azz lil chests! My 15 year old sister doesn't even like them...Lil boys talking about how they can 'work it'

...Well, it's no wonder: look who they are learning from--IMX talking about their "first time" in their "parent's bedroom"...

Even though "never Lie" was the song ("Cuz you will always be, my frieeeeeend!")...I don't know what IMX (whatever--you're still Immature just like P Diddy is still Puff Daddy) are trying to do w/ themselves now. They sound bootleg...like they're trying to still be hip but they aren't...

Booooooo! what happen to groups like new edition!

DSTilmatic_1913 · #30 08-05-2002, 09:44 AM

I am not a huge fan of the group but I must admit I like both of their singles, especially "Gotta To Be." And if I was 15 I would no doubt be a huge fan. J-Boog is a cutie - just wait until he hits 21. Anywho, Omarion is Batman's brother and J-Boog is Batman's cousin. And I swear these little boys have been working out since they were 10!!

And Romeo from Batman has grown into a nice looking young man. Can I get someone who looks like him but around 25-27?

New Edition didn't look anything like these boys when they came out.
