New Kids On The Block

New Kids On The Block made their return to Harlem’s iconic Apollo Theater on Oct. 7, 30 years to the day that the famed boy band filmed  Showtime At the Apollo . A special night for the group and Blockheads alike, NKOTB documented the concert on video for a new mini-doc.

The minute-long clip features commentary from Donnie Wahlberg, Danny Wood and Jordan Knight, as well as some of the lucky fans who were at the Apollo 30th anniversary show and the group’s choreographer, Sunny Walters. “That was such a significant moment,” Wood says of NKOTB’s original Apollo appearance, with Knight adding, “We really were validated as a group.”

Knight also said the Apollo helped New Kids get to where they are now, which made the show feel full-circle for all. And even 30 years in, Wahlberg hints that NKOTB is nowhere near finished with their epic run. “We have what it takes, we just gotta keep going and don’t quit.”

New Kids On The Block are holding true to that sentiment in 2019, hitting the road for The Mixtape Tour with fellow ’80s stars Salt-N-Pepa, Tiffany, Debbie Gibson and Naughty By Nature. Along with the tour announcement — which came the day after their Apollo show — the band revealed that they’re also making new music, appropriately kicking things off with a thumping track titled “’80s Baby” that features their tour mates.

Block Party

By Rebecca Wallwork

Rebecca Wallwork

“When I first saw you guys, people didn’t expect what you were going to bring, these little white brothers from Boston!” It’s a humid Sunday afternoon in Harlem, and the Apollo Theater’s longtime historian — Billy Mitchell, a.k.a. Mr. Apollo — is reminiscing backstage with New Kids on the Block ‘s Donnie Wahlberg. “But, brother, you killed it,” Mitchell continues. “The place went crazy. The place went crazy , man! I still have a picture of you guys in my home .”

Before they became the world’s biggest boy band, the New Kids came up via Boston’s club scene and R&B radio. They might have stayed there had it not been for their breakthrough album, 1988’s Hangin’ Tough , which blew up the charts by injecting just enough funk and soul into otherwise simple pop songs. When they meet with Mitchell, the band is back at the Apollo for a special concert to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Hangin’ Tough , which Sony will re-release early next year with new material including the song “80s Baby” featuring their 2019 tour mates Salt-N-Pepa, Naughty By Nature, Debbie Gibson and Tiffany.

Soon after the reunion with Mitchell, the group’s five members — Wahlberg, Danny Wood, Joe McIntyre and brothers Jordan and Jonathan Knight — gathered around an old videotape brought out of storage, trying to figure out exactly when their appearance at the Apollo’s storied Amateur Night had taken place. It was 1988, that was for sure. Hangin’ Tough was released that September. “Please Don’t Go Girl” had been out since early April, but wasn’t really doing anything. Their first album had been a flop. “If the song didn’t hit, we were done,” recalls Wahlberg.

The New Kids were nervous, but prepared, they recall, when they faced the Apollo’s notoriously skeptical crowd, who stared at the five white boys from Boston in their Task Force jackets, slamming their feet into the stage as they danced and sang “You Got It (The Right Stuff)”—to a track, because someone forgot to bring sheet music for the Apollo’s house band. It took a while, but the New Kids started to notice a few ladies clapping and getting to their feet. By the end of their set, the room was on its feet, chanting, “Go, white boys! Go, white boys!”

Editor’s picks

Every awful thing trump has promised to do in a second term, the 250 greatest guitarists of all time, the 500 greatest albums of all time, the 50 worst decisions in movie history.

There were no screaming young New Kids fans in the audience that night. This was before everyone and their kid sister was doing that “Right Stuff” dance, the one with the moves their choreographer had lifted straight from Morris Day and The Time’s “Jungle Love.”

“No one knew who we were,” says McIntyre, who was a baby-faced 15 on the old tape. “Every show was ‘us against the world.'” McIntyre seems impressed as he watches the clip of his young self whipping up the crowd: “We genuinely did not do drugs back then, but it looked like we were on drugs because we were so fired up.”

Before long, the now-40-something New Kids solve their own mystery. The tape shows the fresh-faced kids introducing themselves, with their age and star sign. “If those ages are accurate,” says Wahlberg, “it was in between Danny and Jordan’s birthdays.” Which places the Amateur Night appearance as May 15th or 16th, 1988 — right before the summer that launched the New Kids, and set a whole subset of R&B-tinged pop music in motion, from Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch to the Backstreet Boys, ‘N Sync and Justin Timberlake. That was the summer the group supported Tiffany on a mall tour and quickly supplanted her as the headliners. By the fall of 1988, they had won the hearts of thousands of American teens and were invited back to the Apollo to appear in their first syndicated TV appearance.

The show this October 7th took place 30 years to the day after that victorious Showtime at the Apollo broadcast. A choked-up Wahlberg told the audience it was “the 30th anniversary of the year that we fell in love with each other.”

Lest you think this is too much schmaltz for one day, strap in: “We’re suckers for complete and utter sentimentality,” admits Wahlberg, the group’s captain and fan ringleader. Sunday night’s mezzanine-shaking show—this time backed by their touring band of the past 10 years—was laden with nostalgia and happy tears, but also with pride. From start to finish, it was a showcase of what has always fueled the New Kids’ success: pure, unbridled, who-gives-a-damn-if-it’s-uncool feeling.

The New Kids performed all 10 of Hangin’ Tough ‘s tracks at the Apollo, with plenty of their old-school moves and the theatricality they’ve honed by singing the album’s hits for packed arenas since their reunion 10 years ago. They even did the sleeper tracks, and the fans went wild—encouraging their idols in occasional moments when they couldn’t quite hit every note that their producer Maurice Starr had coached out of them as teenagers. Starr, who used to dress up in a military dress uniform and call himself The General at the height of New Kids’ fame, was invited to the event but was laid up at home in Florida and unable to make it. The relationship with Starr has long been portrayed as a Svengali-protégé tale, but it’s a bit more nuanced than the cliché suggests.

New Kids on the Block Are Bringing the Band and the Blockheads 'Full Circle' on First New Album in 11 Years

Boy band golden age doc with 'nsync, backstreet boys, more gets green light, kiley dean began as britney spears' backup singer. she ended up finding herself.

“The dynamic changed with Hangin’ Tough ,” says Wahlberg. “We took on more of a role. It stopped being Maurice trying to fit us into songs that sounded like the Osmonds, the Jacksons or New Edition, and more about us identifying songs that fit us.” Starr pressed his singers for “100’s” and taught Wood how to engineer a record. He played basketball with the Kids and told them he was certain they would be famous. “He listened to us and trusted us,” says Wahlberg. “But I think after that, when the success came, he probably tried to grab on a little tight and fit us back in [to his vision]. We’d go to an event with him and another famous person would be there and he’d start challenging them to sing—even Luther Vandross! He was crazy—but great crazy.” Jordan Knight agrees: “There’s a fine line between crazy and genius—but he straddled it, and we caught the genius side.”

At Sunday’s show, a congratulatory message from Starr played on a screen above the stage, and they FaceTimed their old producer in to show him the packed house with the lights up. “He brought us here the first time,” Wahlberg told the crowd, breaking into tears. “He brought us off the fucking street, man, and gave us a chance.”

According to Wahlberg, the New Kids story is more like Rocky than American Idol . If they had been booed off stage in 1988, “it would have been very easy for one of us to say, ‘I’m out.'” But the Kids were spurred on by their reception in Harlem to keep going. To many, it may look like the New Kids’ long-term success is the result of a perfect storm of pop hooks and marketing. But the story of New Kids is also one of chemistry and working-class grit. “We come from that generation where you just get up and you go for it,” says McIntyre. Or, as their 1980s booking agent Jerry Ade put it, “In their hearts, in their brains, in their balls, these kids didn’t quit—ever.”

Despite the many albums that followed, Hangin’ Tough remains the most enduring New Kids record, going eight times platinum.

“I don’t want to sound like I’m comparing us to Michael Jackson, but Michael Jackson’s going to be most known for Thriller ,” says Wahlberg. “That’s the one. But it’s not better than Off the Wall . Do I think we’ve had better songs and other things? Maybe. I think we’ve had moments where we’ve written songs or sung better or performed better—but Hangin’ Tough , that’s the one. We don’t get to decide how we’re remembered. But if it’s with that album, and those special times, then how lucky are we?”

Rebecca Wallwork is the author of Hangin’ Tough by New Kids on the Block (33 1/3, Bloomsbury Academic).

New Kids on the Block Mixtape Tour to kick off in 2019

NKOTB tour will feature Naughty by Nature, Debbie Gibson and more

WLS logo

The '80s are coming to a stadium near you next year.

Donnie Wahlberg and his New Kids on the Block are marking the 30th anniversary of the "Hangin' Tough" album by announcing the NKOTB Mixtape Tour, kicking off in May of 2019. Special guests will include Salt 'n' Pepa, Tiffany, Debbie Gibson, and Naughty by Nature.

NKOTB also marked the Hangin' Tough anniversary with a show at the Apollo Theater Sunday.

"For those of you that were there - you know we love you! For those of you that were there in spirit - we of course held all of our Blockheads close to our hearts," they wrote on their website.

The band also announced they had returned to the studio, releasing their first new song "80s Baby" on the Internet Monday.

For diehard Blockheads, NKOTB will host their own Carnival cruise October 18-22, leaving from Miami and traveling to Half Moon Cay and Nassau, with theme nights like Valentine (Girls) Ball and GPS Love Fest.

New Kids on the Block shot to fame in 1988 with the release of their second album "Hangin' Tough," which included the hits "You Got (The Right Stuff)," "I'll Be Loving You," and "Please Don't Go Girl."

NKOTB disbanded in 1994 but reunited 13 years later, releasing new music and occasionally touring with other bands, including The Backstreet Boys.

MILWAUKEE (October 4, 2021) – Today, multiplatinum selling pop super-group New Kids On The Block continues the party like nobody else can with the announcement of The MixTape Tour 2022 , with their friends Salt-N-Pepa , Rick Astley and En Vogue as legendary special guests.

Produced by Live Nation, the four iconic acts will embark on The MixTape Tour 2022 for its 50+ date journey, with a stop at Fiserv Forum on June 15, 2022. Tickets go on sale Friday, October 8 at 11 a.m. at fiservforum.com . For more information on VIP packages and NKOTB fan club pre-sales, please visit www.nkotb.com .

In celebration of the tour announcement, the four iconic acts will appear on The Kelly Clarkson Show today for a “Kelly’s New Kids on the Block Party” show takeover that gives fans a sneak peek into what they can expect from the dynamic, unbeatable live show, including a performance from NKOTB .

“We had a blast out on the first MixTape Tour in 2019 and can’t wait to take it to another level with our fans on the MixTape Tour 2022 ,” Donnie Wahlberg said. “Just like a mixtape, these shows are going to take audiences through all the emotions. To be able to have Salt-N-Pepa come back and now also have the iconic and legendary Rick Astley and En Vogue join the tour… we could not be more excited. Let’s GO!”

The MixTape Tour 2022 is already shaping up to be a can’t miss night out where fans can hear chart-topping hits and legendary catalogues spanning generations all night long. It follows the colossal commercial and critical success of NKOTB ’s 2019 tour by the same name – their biggest since reuniting in 2008 – which grossed $53.2 million, sold more than 650,000 tickets and pioneered a super-sized show each night with multiple acts (Salt-N-Pepa, Tiffany, Naughty By Nature and Debbie Gibson) hitting the stage and reimagining what a special guest on a tour could look like.

NKOTB will hit the stage on the MixTape Tour 2022 to perform fan favorite #1 hits like “Hangin’ Tough,” “I’ll Be Loving You (Forever),” and “Step By Step” while tour mates Salt-N-Pepa (“Push It,” “Shoop,” “Whatta Man”), Rick Astley (“Never Gonna Give You Up,” “Together Forever”) and En Vogue (“Don’t Let Go [Love],” “Free Your Mind,” “Give It Up, Turn It Loose,” “Hold On”) keep the party going with music that catapulted them to stardom and solidified their places in music history.

NKOTB most recently returned to the stage for an epic, one night only, sold out performance at Fenway Park on August 6 in their beloved hometown of Boston, MA. Watch a recap HERE . The show marked their first performance in two years, their third show at Fenway Park, and a preview of the explosive live energy from the group that fans can expect from the MixTape Tour 2022.

In 2021, Salt-N-Pepa received a Lifetime Achievement Award. 2022 will kick up with Salt-N-Pepa dedicating their Hollywood Walk of Fame star.

Over the past two years, Rick Astley has amassed two million YouTube followers with a series of covers from his studio and become a major force on TikTok with 1.7 million followers. “Never Gonna Give You Up” was recently featured on the critically acclaimed series Ted Lasso on Apple TV+ and its video has been viewed more than 1 billion times.

En Vogue celebrated the 30 th anniversary of their first album Born To Sing on April 3, 2020, when it was reissued on Rhino Records, closed out the 2020 Billboard Music Awards with a performance of “Free Your Mind,” and launched their Funky Divas podcast. In March, they appeared with Salt-N-Pepa in Coming 2 America for a show-stopping performance of their hit song “Whatta Man” that was aptly titled “Whatta King” and was featured on the film’s soundtrack. In 2018, they released their album Electric Café , with a top 10 single (“Rocket”). Recent collaborations have included Snoop Dogg, Raphael Saadiq and Chance the Rapper.
