With the group entering their adult years at this time, they wanted a sound that reflected their maturity instead of the bubblegum pop they were known for on their earlier albums. Lead singer Ralph Tresvant was contemplating a solo career as the direction of the group was in question following the release of their doo-wop cover album Under the Blue Moon in 1986.
The group was in a transitional period after Bobby Brown was voted out of the group following the release of their third album All for Love in 1985. It is considered by many to be their best album and one of the greatest albums in the R&B genre.
Heart Break was released on June 20, 1988-the same day as former member Bobby Brown’s breakthrough album Don’t Be Cruel.
