My Take
Ralph Tresvant's voice is, for me, one of the defining sounds of late-eighties and nineties R&B. As New Edition's lead singer he gave the group its tender, instantly recognizable edge, and his double-platinum solo debut confirmed he could stand alone. What I admire is the softness of his delivery; he persuades rather than overpowers. The later Heads of State project with Bobby Brown and Johnny Gill speaks to a loyalty and camaraderie I find rare in the industry. As a quiet architect of a golden R&B era, he has my lasting respect.
