Teddy Riley Set to Drop Explosive Memoir "Remember The Times" in 2026

Hip-hop and R&B icon Teddy Riley, the pioneering force behind New Jack Swing, has officially announced the release of his upcoming memoir, “Remember The Times,” set to debut in 2026. The legendary producer promises fans an unfiltered look into the highs, lows, and history-making moments of his decades-long career.

The news broke on popular entertainment forum Lipstick Alley, where fans were quick to share excitement and speculation about what Riley might reveal.

From producing timeless hits for Michael Jackson, Bobby Brown, and Guy, to shaping the sound of a generation, Riley's contribution to music is unmatched. His memoir is expected to go beyond studio stories—diving into untold industry drama, personal setbacks, and revelations that shaped the man behind the music.

The title “Remember The Times” is believed to be a nod to Michael Jackson’s iconic single “Remember the Time,” which Riley co-produced in the early ’90s—a peak moment in his legendary career.

This memoir could follow the success of other music bios like Rick Rubin’s or Quincy Jones’, but with Riley’s unique voice, fans anticipate a story rich in cultural history, music innovation, and personal truth.

Whether you grew up on Blackstreet or still vibe to “No Diggity”, this book could be a must-read for any real fan of 90s R&B, hip-hop, and music history in general.
