All of the group's previous members had number one R&B hits: Bobby Brown with 'Girlfriend ' and Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, and Ronald DeVoe as Bell Biv DeVoe (aka BBD) with 'Poison.' Besides this, Tresvant had New Edition's formidable chart success to contend with: four number one R&B singles, 'Candy Girl' (gold), 'Cool It Now,' 'Mr.
