"I bought the tape when it first came out. My favorite songs were "Iesha," "Coolin' At The Playground," "Jealous Girls," and "My World." I haven't seen my tape since the early 90s and I still remember the words to some of these songs. I sure would love to see how Red, Mark, Ro Ro, Lil' Dave, Chris and G.A. look now. I loved this group."

These kids were talented

"another bad creation. my favorite new jack album. sure, it wasn't as commercially successful as say..guy's albums or bbd or new edition, but these preteens came on the scene at the right time. new jack was starting to fade a bit and people were getting tired of seeing the same pioneers. as a result, a new wave of talent started to emerge in the late '90-early '91 period. one of the 1st acts was another bad creation. they were a part of michael bivins' newly created biv 10 label under the wing of motown. with two top 10 hits, "playground" and 'iesha', abc quickly gained stardom. and with good reason too. they had a talented producer, a talented promoter, and a little variety to their act. they rapped, sung, had skits, and it all meshed so well into "coolin at the playground". the leadoff track, "parents" , introduces the world to them, leading into their smash hit "playground". other notables include "my world, "little soldiers", 'thats my girl" and their other smash hit "iesha". The biggest surprise has to be the rendition of "jealous girl", which sounds much like the original, done 1st by new edition. overall, combining dallas austin's production savvy with bivins' promotional skills, abc was destined for success and they were, spinning off platinum status on their debut."

"I was 11 years old when this album came out & I let my tape rock until my tape popped! I loved ABC like those girls who stand outside of TRL for NSYNC or the Backstreet Boys! I was a dedicated fan. Even now that I'm a grown woman in my 20s, I can still say this was a good CD. If I can find a copy I would still play it today.The only song on this album that got on my nerves was Spyderman. Playground, My World, Iesha & the remake of New Edition's Jealous Girl are the stand out tracks on this album."
