Ah, hello. Welcome everybody to another episode of On That Note. I am your humble host, Sean Stockman. And of course, this is the place where we speak a language we all understand, and that is music. Um, a little change of uh location, a little change of scenery right now. Uh we are in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the Cosmopolitan LV, where uh Boys to Men has a uh brief but fun residency here at the Chelsea Theater. Um this is I think our third year doing this.

back in March.
We'll be back in March. As a matter of fact. Thank you. Um we'll be back in March um to do this once again because we love each other. You know, that's that's what happens. When you love someone, you want to see them more. And the cosmo wants to see us more and we wanna see them more. You know, you know how that goes. Anyway, um we're here once again with my brethren. Uh I guess you could say it's a part two, but let's let's call it a reset. Yeah.
I like
that. Um Very special conversation um today. Um these aren't just my group members, they're my brothers. We've shared more than three decades of music, history, triumphs, challenges, laughter, tears, and a bond that very few people will ever truly understand. And we're gonna get into that bond today. Um Together we've been blessed to leave an incredible mark on music, but today. I'm gonna go beyond the records, the awards and the accolades and talk about the men behind the music. Um, ladies and gentlemen, please give it up for mister Nathan Bartholomew Mars and Winy Jermaine Mars, uh two thirds of the group boys to men. What's up, fellas? What's happening? How y'all feel?
Chillin' man, you know. Same as you. Yeah. Tied. Yeah. Yeah,
it's been a it's been a It's been a good year. We we had a we had a good year starting off, right? Um We were on a tour.
Yeah, a good tour. Sold out tour. Sold out tour. A sold out tour. A sold-out tour.
Consistent.
Consistent.
A historical tour. Um, the tour I'm speaking of is the new editions way tour. That's right. Yeah. Featuring New Edition and all of their factions within the group. Yes. Uh, the Queen, Miss Tony Braxton, and us. Yeah. How did that make you feel, guys? That first off, this is the new edition Boys to Men Connect. Goes decades. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it does. Yeah. We've talked about doing this particular collaboration. for over what fifteen years?
Yeah, it's been a minute.
It's been a minute.
It's been a minute.
And it finally happened.
Mm-hmm.
How do you feel about how the outcome? And Why do you think it took so long? For to happen.
Um Well obviously we know we It it didn't have anything to do with us. There's probably other details that we may not know of as why it took so long, but I mean it it it it it made sense to do for a long time. Um, sometimes it's not always about when you wanna do it, it's when it happens. So I think for us It makes sense. This is the perfect time for us and I think the perfect time for them, the only thing I will say is I think it was foolish to stop.
Mhm. I
mean, when you're selling out venues and then it's hard to get tours off first of all, it's hard to get tours off the ground. It's hard to get people on the road that can get along with each other and everything is cool. And then it's hard to sell out tickets and make money. We were doing all three of them, so Reason why we c got off is Beyond me. But other than that.
