(CelebNMusic247-NewsTeddy Riley‘s BS2 Ignites The Stage In Los Angeles

Teddy Riley’s BlackSTREET now BS2 took the stage by storm at the Nokia in Los Angeles on Friday (July 12).

I am seldom ever in awe… but last night was one of those rare moments. BS2 at the Nokia Lounge was simply AMAZING!

The renaissance  of Blackstreet was headed by one of the greatest writer/producers of all times, Mr. Teddy Riley. He now heads his newest project BS2 with the amazing talents of  J-Stylz, Tony Tyler, Lenny Harold, Dave Hollister and himself, Teddy Riley.

These five men appear more like brothers, feeding, encouraging, loving and inspiring one another. You can feel the love and respect not only for what they do but for each other, for the music and most importantly for the audience.

The Performance

One of the many things that made BS2’s performance amazing to me was it was like watching a new group. In spite of being founded in 1991 Teddy Riley Talks BS2 and Growing in Music-715-2BS2 has a fresh, new energized presence yet they kept the beauty, passion and integrity of the music. There was no need for fireworks or half naked girls on stage only to giggle, on the contrary, these men had commanded the stage. They move with the grace of iconic groups such as, The Temptations & the Four Tops but with the energy that rivals any act today.

I watched the audience being worked into frenzy as BS2 performed one hit song after another. Women and men transported back to the moments of “passion” evoked and inspired by songs like “Before I Let You Go” and “Baby Be Mine“… I even had to force myself back to the job at hand once or twice during their amazing performance. When Teddy began performing songs he had written for artist ranging from Bobby Brown to Michael Jackson that simply brought the house DOWN!!!

BS2 is not a “remember when group,” they are a powerful, impact full of fun and romantic distinction. The guys in the group even handed out roses to the ladies. BS2 is a group that will make you remember, relive and reignite your R&B spark. While their music filtrated through the Nokia all you wanted to do was live in the moment and dance. Last night was an event, an experience that I hope you too will have the chance to enjoy.
