Ralph Tresvant, who grew up before our very eyes as the front man of New Edition, is looking to put a new solo album in stores by October or November.


The singer has been in the studio working on his first solo project since “Sensitivity,” his debut released 13 years ago. The artist is working with Xzault Media Group in California and is said to have new material that will satisfy the fans who had the New Edition buttons on their Members Only jackets back in the 80s, as well as new music lovers.

R.T. is also setting up shop behind the microphone, having recently bought shares of Xzault Media Group with plans to produce film and television projects, as well as two new albums with the company.


As for New Edition, Tresvant is still involved with Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, Mike and Johnny, and a new N.E. album is said to be in the works for next year.

oh great, another rehased 80's act now trying to cut it in the hip hop dominated mainstream by realeasing a solo project that will feature lemme guess:
1. 3 guest rappers
2. boring ballads about "the big ass bentley in the house" , "would u still love me if i didnt have all this money"
3. over produced music
4. nothing original or new

Give Ralph a chance. Ya never know.

I don't thuink Ralph will sing about those things. Isn't that the reason he and New Edition left Bad Boy because Diddy made them sing about lots of things.

Ralph has already released a solo Cd since "Sensitivity"...The article has misinformation...

The album came out in 1994 and it was called "It's Goin' Down"

And that album was appropriately titled - becasue that's where it went - down as in down the charts., he should have named it, It's goin up.

He did have a decent song on that album titled, "Sexo"

As far as Ralph's Mo is concerned, he doesn't disrecpect women so his lyrics (and guest rappers) will be mature and less controversial. His videos will be tasteful, he also just got married so expect a lot of syruppy/Brain McKnight type ballads and shit. He's just putting out music because he can - I don't think he's at the stage where he cares too much about sales...I mean, if he goes gold that would be a huge success.
