New Edition was a popular American R&B/pop boy band formed in 1983 in Boston, Massachusetts. The group was originally composed of five members: Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, Bobby Brown, Ronnie DeVoe, and Ralph Tresvant. They were one of the most successful boy bands of the 1980s and early 1990s, known for their harmonious vocals, catchy songs, and energetic performances.
The group released several successful albums, including "Candy Girl" (1983), "New Edition" (1984), "All for One" (1985), "Heart Break" (1988), and "Home Again" (1996). Some of their most popular hits include "Candy Girl", "Mr. Telephone Man", "Cool It Now", "If It Isn't Love", and "Can You Stand the Rain".
New Edition's music style was a blend of R&B, pop, and funk, and they were known for their smooth harmonies and energetic performances. The group's popularity peaked in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but they continued to release music and tour throughout the 1990s and 2000s.
In 2017, the group reunited for a biopic series on BET, titled "The New Edition Story", which chronicled their rise to fame and struggles. The series was a huge success and led to a reunion tour and new music releases.
New Edition's legacy continues to inspire new generations of music fans, and their music remains a staple of 1980s and 1990s pop culture.
