Boston-based group New Edition has appeared on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart 16 times, with eight of those singles reaching the Top 40 and four of them making the Top 10. All of this started with their song “Candy Girl,” which they took to number 46 in their first chart appearance. On this date in 1983, “Candy Girl” reached its peak position, where it would spend one week.
Today, New Edition’s first charting single is the Daily Eighties Flashback.
