Funeral Arrangements for Tommy (updated message 11:40)
You know, Bobby planning a funeral is never easy. And it’s even harder when you’re in the middle of a tour, carrying not just your grief but your responsibilities too.
But I’m here for you.
Being the thinker of us all, I’m going to say what needs to be said plain and simple. Right now, the best thing you can do is keep it simple and meaningful. Something respectful, something heartfelt. That’s what matters.
You don’t need to overextend yourself. You’ve got work to get back to, and you already know that.
I don’t need to explain who said what or who’s holding the phone that’s nobody’s business. What matters is this moment, and how you move through it.
And for now, I’m putting everything else aside. No side conversations, no extra noise. This is about you holding on and staying strong.
Because let’s be real New Edition is on the brink of being inducted into the Hall of Fame. That didn’t happen by accident. You didn’t come this far to fold now.
So here it is, clear as day:
You’ve got two choices.
You plan something simple, honor Tommy the right way, and get back to work by March 26.
Or you let this moment break you, right when you’re standing at the edge of history.
And I know you better than that.
The people who need to be there family, real friends they’ll be there. The rest doesn’t matter.
Finish the tour.
As for everything else I’m not here to smooth things over or explain myself. I am who I am. People can take it or leave it.
So hear me clearly:
Stay focused. Stay strong. And don’t let this moment take you off your path.
