In a recent interview with AfroTech, Bobby Brown — once known as the “bad boy of R&B” — expressed his desire to leave a specific legacy for his children.
“I hope that people learn to understand that you will go through ups and downs in life, but it’s just about how you deal with them,” he said to AfroTech exclusively. “I want people to really pay attention to the fact that I am still standing, I am still touring. I am still doing everything that I have done in the past as far as entertainment is concerned. I’m moving on and pushing on as hard as I possibly can.”
He also revealed that he had a new business venture: an eponymous barbecue sauce, which he co-founded with his wife, Alicia.
“We’re so fortunate that he is multitalented on the stage as well as in our kitchen,” she said. “Bobby is definitely a favorite of ours for being the chef whenever we have any kind of major events, family gatherings, anything you can think of — everybody wants Bobby Brown to cook. So, I thought that we should really package this up and get it out to the masses.”
Bobby Brown has certainly come a long way from being one of the founding members of New Edition — though, he says, it’s certainly an important part of his legacy. And that legacy includes a $2 million net worth, per Celebrity Net Worth — and it proves that it’s not your failures that define you, but it’s how you overcome your failures in the end.
Let’s take a look at his seven children — the crown jewel in Bobby Brown’s legacy.
