Bobby Brown's childhood days

On February 5, 1969, Robert Barisford Brown was born in Boston, Massachusetts. As a child, Robert was inspired by James Brown after seeing him perform in his hometown. He was raised in the Orchard Park Projects in Roxbury as one of eight siblings. This inspired him to join the church choir as a performer. However, the star never got on the right track due to his bad childhood. Since his parents were both substitute teachers and construction workers, they could not afford to provide him with a comfortable life.

Bobby Brown's life changed when he was almost stabbed to death by his best friend. But his career and net worth were not affected. The band became a quintet after the manager's nephew joined the group, and "Candy Girl" was their first album released in 1983. Brown formed the band with two of his close friends in 1981. Bobby Brown's net worth increased significantly after he left the band in 1986 and embarked on a solo career. The song placed at #20 on the Billboard R&B singles chart.

Bobby Brown's Career Life

Born in Boston's Orchard Park Projects, Brown, Ricky Bell, Travis Pettus, and Corey Rackley formed New Edition with childhood friends Michael Bivins, Ricky Bell, Travis Pettus, and Corey Rackley as 9-year-olds. Tresvant had also known Brown as a child. In 1982, the quartet became a quintet when their manager Brooke Payne insisted that his nephew Ronnie DeVoe be brought in to complete the group after Travis Pettus left the group; they formed a quartet of Bell, Tresvant, Bivins, and Brown.

Brown entered a self-titled deal with MCA, the label of his former group (which had promised him a solo deal if he left New Edition), and signed with Steven Machat, the group's manager. A year later, Brown worked with Babyface, Antonio 'L.A.' Reid, Teddy Riley and many other top R&B producers and songwriters to make his follow-up album. New Edition was reunited for the first time at the 1990 MTV Video Music Awards, where Brown, Ralph Tresvant, and Johnny Gill performed together on Bell Biv DeVoe's "Word to the Mutha!" in 1991. Bobby Brown has a net worth of $2 million as of March 2023. The following are some of Bobby Brown songs highlights:

Every Little Step (1988)

The personal life of Bobby Brown

The famous Houston estate was where Brown and Houston married on July 18 1992. They had their daughter Bobbi Kristina in 1993. Their 15-year marriage ended because Brown was too drunk, drugged, violent, and even cheated on Houston. In 2007, Whitney Houston and Brown divorced because of their infamous relationship. Brown was arrested for drunk driving and many other things. Whitney Houston significantly increased the net worth of Bobby Brown. In 2009, Bobby and his girlfriend of two years, Alicia Etheredge, had a son named Cassius. Later in 2012, the couple married in Hawaii after he proposed in May 2010. Whitney and their daughter Bobbi died tragically, as did two other children he fathered by other women.
