Growing Pains, season 6 episode 16, “Ben’s Rap Group”.
Air Date: January 23, 1991
In this scene, Ben tries to convince his father to help him manage a rap group known as the “Fresh Kidz” with a homemade hype video.
Robin Thicke portrays the lead singer of the bunch singing a song he actually wrote (making this possibly the earliest available recording of a Robin Thicke song)! Also featured is a young Brian Austin Green (from Beverley HIlls, 90210 and other shows).
Did you know Robin and Brian were actual childhood friends and briefly formed a rap group in real life called Think 2wice (twice)? I don’t think anything really came of it since I can’t find much about it other than a photo and some text from an old magazine and a passing reference to it by Alan Thicke. I guess this scene is the closest thing to what their group might’ve been like had it lasted.
