组合介绍
提到新街边男孩(New Kids On The Block)，什么"Take That"、"Nsync"等男孩团体统统都要靠边站。  说新街边男孩是这些男孩团体的始祖一点也不为过。此团体1985年在波士顿成立，他们是被制作人兼作曲家Maurice Starr发掘的，希望他们能够载歌载舞地表演自己撰写的一些饶舌歌曲。Maurice Starr在1983年成功地将同样是来自波斯顿的黑人五人组合"New Edition"推出音乐市场。两年后针对音乐市场上占绝对比重的白人而设计的组合就是新街边男孩。就像他所希望的一样在商业方面新街边男孩远远超过了New Edition。他们活力十足，外貌讨喜。
当时组合中年纪最小的Joey McIntyre才14岁，而年纪最长的Jonathan Knight也才18岁。关于Joey McIntyre的加入，其中还颇有一段插曲。当时新街边男孩连第一张唱片还没出，就发生其中一个团员因为过量酗酒被开除的插曲。随后才找来Joey Mcintyre替补，成为五人之中最年轻的一员。  他们以干净、健康的形象出道，他们不像前辈那样愤世嫉俗，也不追求另类嘻皮、朋克，不以新奇异怪的造型来吸引人的眼球。他们就凭着他们满身的稚气，稚气的形象，稚气的嗓音来打动人、感染人。他们健康纯真的形象，甜美无邪的歌声也走进了每一个10-20岁年轻人的心田。同时也向世界宣布，少男少女们有了只属于自己的音乐，只属于自己的流行团体。他们的出现和成功也定义了随后10多年中欧美层出不穷的男孩组合的模式。5名成员，彼此年龄跨度在5年以内，中性的外形设计，只演唱他人创作的歌曲，擅长舞蹈。也许你没想到，新街边男孩就是当代TeenagePop Group的老祖宗。
1986年发行第一张同名专辑，在16岁以下白人女孩中受到了狂热追捧，可惜并没有引起太多注意。1988年推出以Joey主唱的单曲"Please Don’t Go Girl"才打开组合的知名度。同年，第二张专辑《Hangin’ Tough》发行，专辑大受欢迎，并凭借此专辑挤进Billboard排行榜，这张专辑一共卖出了800万张。开始他们大放异彩的星路。新街边男孩(8张)
说起来第一张专辑的封面还可见到Joey戴着牙齿矫正器。当时他尚未变声，还保有男孩清澈甜嫩的嗓音。加上那对漂亮的蓝眼珠，唱着这首"Please Don’t Go Girl"，当年真的迷倒不少人。虽然专辑里头有五位团员轮流主唱的歌曲，但是主唱机会最多的通常是Jordan Knight，再来是Joey，然后是Donnie Wahlberg。Jordan很会用假音唱歌，又会弹琴，那首"I'll Be Loving You (Forever)"也是专辑里非常受欢迎的歌，还曾经登上Billboard单曲排行榜的第一名。到1989年新街边男孩已经成为美国炙手可热的歌唱组合，其作品"You Got It (The Right Stuff)"、"I'll Be Loving You (Forever) "、"Cover Girl"、"Didn't I (Blow Your Mind)"深受乐迷喜爱。 新街边男孩(11张)
他们的歌陪伴很多人走过青春岁月。进入1990年代，已经长大的乐迷开始将更多的注意力集中在新兴的“另类摇滚”上。新街边男孩试图改变以适应变化。他们认为斯塔始终将他们定位在“低龄少女杀手”上，影响了乐队的发展，所以在1994年终止了与斯塔近10年的合约。他们还认为团名"New Kids On The Block"降低了对成熟听众的吸引力，所以取原团名的缩写把乐队的名称改为"NKOTB"，并于1994年以此团名发行了第五张专辑。该专辑让乐评人停止了6年来对这个组合音乐才华的指责，获得了一片叫好之声。但新街边男孩失去了新一代20岁以下女孩的支持，又无法获得20－30岁年龄段的听众，新专辑叫好不叫座，导致不久之后NKOTB宣告解散，此后一共成员便走上单飞之路。 
他们在1980年代末期和90年代初期可真的是红遍大街小巷。不仅在美国本地、连英国、亚洲都有众多歌迷。
2008年年初新街边男孩宣布重组并在7月18日推出了单曲《Summertime》 　
2008年9月2日曾经红极一时的新街边男孩时隔14年推出了新专辑《The Block》，在该专辑中与Ne-Yo、The Pussycat Dolls、Akon等多名当红歌手和组合进行了合作。
目前新街边男孩与另一个曾红极一时的男孩团体后街男孩组成"NKOTBSB"世界巡演中。
