But the lead vocalist on many of New Edition’s biggest hits delivered, turning in the Number One “Sensitivity” a decade ago and kicking off his own solo career in style. Tresvant grew up in the Roxbury section of Boston, and was recruited in the early ‘80s -- along with Bobby Brown, Michael Bivins, Ricky Bell and Ronald Devoe -- to become part of svengali Maurice Starr’s brainstorm. Starr wanted to form a “New Edition” of the Jackson 5, and his young protégés delivered, with hits like “Candy Girl” and “Cool It Now.” But by the late ‘80s, Brown had gone on to an even bigger solo career, and Bell, Bivins and Devoe followed suit with their own chart-topping smash, “Poison.” That left Tresvant, who teamed with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis for his own self-titled album, released in 1990. Besides “Sensitivity,” it also produced the hits “Stone Cold Gentleman” and “Do What I Gotta Do.” Jam and Lewis returned for the 1994 album It’s Goin’ Down, which included the R&B smash “Who’s the Mack.” Then Tresvant and the rest of New Edition reconvened for a 1996 reunion tour and album, Home Again. Recently, he starred in the gospel musical Sugar Daddy with Christopher Martin of Kid ‘N Play, and in 1999, Tresvant and his brother formed a new label, Rated R, to release his own work.     Ralph Tresvant Start 2 Wonder PlayJ R&B New Jack is back on this sweet, swinging track from Mr. “Sensitivity.” Cue it up and party like it’s 1991!
