The album quickly rose to #6 on the Billboard 200 and claimed the #1 spot on the R&B charts. Internationally, it topped the charts in Ireland and sold over 2 million copies in the United States. Featuring hit singles like "Cool It Now" and "Mr. Telephone Man," the album showcased the group's smooth vocals and catchy pop hooks, solidifying their place in the 1980s music scene. Produced by Vincent Brantley and Rick Timas, the album's polished production played a crucial role in its success. The album not only cemented New Edition's status as leading artists but also influenced the sound of R&B and pop music, paving the way for future boy bands and groups.
