New Edition's early, Jackson 5-inspired material made them the forerunners of two generations of teen pop. As they matured and progressed, they laid much of the groundwork for the fusion of hip-hop and R&B known as new jack swing. In fact, after New Edition drifted apart, all of its members had at least some significant success outside the group as part of the new jack movement, which helped ensure that their original incarnation would be remembered for much more than the bubblegum soul that made their name.
New Edition was formed in the Roxbury section of Boston, Massachusetts by Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, and Bobby Brown, who began singing together in 1978 while still in elementary school, hoping to perform for pocket cash. They eventually recruited friend Ralph Tresvant as a fourth member, and after winning a talent show in 1980, also added Ronnie DeVoe. More talent show victories followed, including a prestigious gig at the local Strand Theater, where they performed the Jackson 5's "The Love You Save." They were discovered by writer/producer/impresario Maurice Starr, who signed the group to his small Streetwise label in hopes of launching a Jackson 5 phenomenon for the '80s. "Candy Girl," a song Starr co-wrote for the group, was released as their first single in 1983, when the members ranged in age from 13 to 15. Despite a lack of major-label interest in the group, "Candy Girl" was a smash, topping the R&B charts. Their debut album, also titled Candy Girl, spawned two more R&B hits in "Popcorn Love" and "Is This the End?," and MCA offered the group a deal. Starr, however, wanted the quintet to remain with Streetwise; New Edition summarily fired him as their manager and signed with MCA. Starr attempted to sue the group for their name, unsuccessfully claiming that "New Edition" actually referred to a whole new style of pop music he'd created. Starr would go on to strike it rich with a similar concept, assembling a quintet of teenagers he dubbed New Kids on the Block.

I can’t wait until April 2nd for the Legacy Tour, my tickets have been burning my phone like money in your hand. These guys don’t ever disappoint, I am there for every event from, last years Culture Tour,the RBRM Tour when Ralph and Johnny was mad to BBD shows. They just keep going and getting better. They have overcome so much and really shown people what a real friendship and brotherhood is all about. Life is too short to hold grudges, it only hurts the fans when we can’t see you and your pockets. As long as you come I will show up. New Edition was my 1 st concert as a 11,12 year old and they will probably be my last. NE 4 Life!!!!!

MY my my too many memories with this group and after 40 years I am still in love with their voices. I had crushes on these guys growing up in order by years Ralph T, Ricky Bell, JG. Now in order by sexy voice Johnny Gill, Ricky Bell, Ralph T, Bobby Brown ( his mature sober Rock witchu voice is soothing ) 45:00 is the best dance move part of the 22 madison garden show.
