The Sean “Puffy” Combs-produced New Edition comeback album project isn’t on the Universal Records roster for release this year, but on March 2nd, fans will be able to enjoy the new compilation “HITS.” Spanning the years 1984 to 1996 and featuring 17 tracks, each digitally re-mastered from the original singles masters, “HITS” will include all 16 of New Edition's R&B Top 10s, among them all four of their #1 smashes ("Cool It Now," "Mr. Telephone Man," "Can You Stand The Rain" and "Hit Me Off" ), plus one Top 20.
Ten tracks have never before been heard on any New Edition compilation. Two of those -- "Once In A Lifetime Groove" and "Helplessly In Love" -- were recorded for films (“Running Scared” and “Dragnet,” respectively) and have never before appeared on any New Edition album.
The package will also feature a booklet filled with rare photos from throughout the group's career. In addition, the booklet reveals how to access on the CD a hidden welcome message to fans from group spokesman Michael Bivins.
2004 has gotten off to a great start as far as music releases!
The countdown is on once again for this one!
