My Flashback song today came out in 1990 by the New Edition spinoff group Bel Biv DeVoe. “Poison” was is in the style of new jack swing a late-1980s early-1990s hybrid of R&B, hip hop and swing. “Poison” was Bel Biv DeVoe’s most successful song. At the end of the song the guys give shout-outs to their former band mates from New Edition: Bobby Brown, Ralph Tresvant and Johnny Gill (Ralph-T, Johnny G, and Bobby Brown). They stayed on good terms throughout the years and they would reunite from time to time in the ensuing years. I loved this song and still do!
