Another DeBarge Soars to Stardom
He’s born to be different. He’s a DeBarge, yet he’s an individual. On our Right On! Cover, he looks like James, but during our coversation he converses like El. And like his singing brothers and sisters, DeBarge, he already has hits on his first LP, Chico DeBarge.

It’s actually very thrilling to be on the ground floor of someone’s career and it’s even more thrilling to greet the latest in the long line of talented DeBarges. “It’s thrilling for me to be in Right On! also,” Chico smiles. He covers up yawn and stretches out on the sofa during out early morning chat.

Flashback Q&A: Debarge gave up athletics for music. The Milwaukee Journal, 1987.

We interviewed the 19-year-old shy and handsome singer-songwriter Chico DeBarge. He’s only been a professional musician for two years, but he’s developed a terrific style. His single “Talk to Me” was an instant hit. He said, “I spent more time with athletics than music, because I didn’t want to compete with the musical reputation of my family.” We’re glad he changed his mind because we love his music.

WESTPORT -- DeBarge is quite opposite of what their name suggests.

The musical group has made some major changes in the last year. With a new album and several recent live appearances, the band has been moving rapidly up the musical charts. The band is scheduled to appear tonight at the dance club 18 West, located on the Post Road.

The DeBarge family is here to promote their newest album, ‘Bad Boys,’ on a new record label, Striped Horse. The group will perform without instruments, relying simply on their diverse harmonic blend and dance persuasion. The band members are James, Mark, Randy and Bobby Debarge. Bobby just recently joined the band after being part of a group called ‘Switch’ which broke up.

Previously, however, Bobby had been involved in much of the production and writing with the original group. He got into the group so they could all sign a contract together. He has a solo contract with Motown but got out of it.
