About The Record:

No More Games: The Remix Album by New Kids on the Block peaked at No. 19 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and is certified gold by RIAA in the U.S. Donnie Wahlberg led the group in coordinating this remix album, which fused the "harder" elements of hip-hop and urban dance into the New Kids' sound, resulting in No More Games/The Remix Album — with a significant portion of the album remixed by Robert Clivilles and David Cole (of C+C Music Factory fame). Also employed was a marketing tactic to release the album under the 'NKOTB' acronym. Since the youngest group member was now eighteen years old, and the rest were in their early twenties, they had arguably grown out of the New 'Kids' On The Block moniker that they rose to fame with. More significantly, it was an attempt to dissociate from the stigma that was attached to that name. The album features three singles: Games (The New Kids Get Hard Mix), Call It What You Want, and Baby I Believe In You.
