Harry Styles has released a work of pleasantly breezy, mildly rakish pop, Kiss All The Time. Its lived-in maturity suggests how far he has come since his days in boy band One Direction. In honour of Styles’ album, I’ve compiled a collection of tunes by former boy band members who found success on their own. Bobby Brown: Every Little StepFormer New Edition member Bobby Brown was only 19 when he released his second solo album, the wildly successful Don’t Be Cruel, in 1988. Ricky Martin: Livin’ La Vida LocaRicky Martin, a onetime member of Puerto Rican boy band Menudo, set the entire world en fuego with this Spanglish smash.
