Thanks to the well-received BET biographical mini-series, the group has returned to Billboard 200 top 40 for the first time in over 10 years. According to Billboard, the Billboard 200 chart ranks the week’s most popular album based on overall consumption including pure album sales, track equivalent albums, and streaming albums. New Edition’s hits compilation, All the Number Ones, originally released in 2000, debuts at No. 37, earning 12,000 equivalent album units this past week.

Not only did they see a peak in overall New Edition hits, but also solo smashes from the individual members and the break off trio Bell Biv DeVoe. BBD released their first album in 15 years, Three Stripes, ranked in at No. 18 on Billboard 200 after it’s January 27 release. They last debuted on the charts with their 1993 album, Hootie Mack.
