I loved this joint back in the day!

THESE NIGGAS JUST COMPLETELY VANISHED FROM THE EARTH…

TRANNIBAL will vanish once the Gay Club opens. . .

LMAO! RODNEY, WHY U HATE ME SO MUCH?

They was never forgotten by me.I still have an autograph picture in a frame…This was the good o’l days late 80′s and the 90′s thats when music was great I don’t know what the fukk is going on now….Love The Boys 4Life……

This group is still here and still making music there called “The Suns of Light” now

Oh, I remember this!

It reminds me of another jam I loved — Soul for Real, Candy Rain

What a coincidence I just published a blog post about these guys some days ago…I think i have a fan club….lol

How cute were they?! Wonder how they’re all doing these days…..

Loves it!

…I had the biggest crush on some of these guys…

This is why I love Bossip. I remember when everyone on my block except me went to see The Boys at Newark Symphony Hall. I didn’t realize I’m still in recovery.

as long as they work for jews they’ll be ok

Aww the good ole days! Good pick bossip…hit us wit some TROOP next time.

damn. i remember this song like it was yesterday…damn 30 just a couple years away.

II call my baby on the phone
Got to leave a message
Just to let her know
That if she ever feels alone
To dial my heart
And if by chance
You’re not at home
You can reach me, baby
By the nearest pay phone
I gotta cross my fingers
And pray you’ll know
To dial my heart

Woooow- this really takes me back. I remember starting fourth grade at a new school school in January 1989;British Knight gym shoes and THE BOYS were what was hot.SMH at the good ‘ol days+ kid-friendly music being gone…

me and 3 of my friends won a talent show in 4th grade doing this song. LOL

The are in Africa and like a post before stated, the are called “The Suns of Light”…wikipedia them.

Hey guys! Who uploads these Blasts from the Pasts? Do we have to make a suggestion or what?

They all look like “Rasta” lookinges dudes except for the oldest one. They performed at my school districts “back to school” party. The dumb kids were throwing paper (school pamplets they were given when they came in) at them not because they didn’t like them but because they didn’t know how to act at a concert. The boys ran off the stage after singing 2 or 3 songs.

Awww shucks Now… I love me BOYS!!!! They lil Culr Box Fades and all! Daym The Was finer then a mug ! LOL

I remember I was in the seventh or eighth grade when they came out. I had the album because cd’s didn’t come until two years later. My friends and I had a dance step off a couple of songs on the album. I liked the song they had called “Personality”.

I used to love these little guys! I had the whole tape!! OMG! Did I say tape?!?!

No you didn’t go back to some real music.

These little guys perform better than any of this current artist.

Music use to be so good back in the day.
