New Kids on the Block want you to stay inside and have a house party -- and they've got the perfect soundtrack for you.
The chart-topping group released a charity single called "House Party," with all proceeds going to benefit No Kid Hungry's COVID-19 relief efforts. Joining them on the single are Jordin Sparks, Boyz II Men, Naughty by Nature and New Orleans artist Big Freedia.
The song was written and produced by Donnie Wahlberg and a co-writer over FaceTime, and is designed to lift people up.

If we can do even the smallest thing to lift someone’s day we will do that," Wahlberg said in a statement, adding, "All we want to do is give back in the best way we know how."
The video for the track is star-studded. It features guest appearances by Mark Wahlberg, Carrie Underwood, Nicole Scherzinger of the Pussycat Dolls, Donnie's wife Jenny McCarthy, dance pro Derek Hough, actor Ken Jeong and, of course, the stars of the '90s film franchise House Party, Kid 'n Play.
New Kids are also benefiting No Kid Hungry by auctioning off a tour package that includes tickets to a future tour, hotel, round-trip airfare, merch, meet and greets and a night on the band's tour bus. Bidding starts Friday and ends May 8 at 9 a.m. ET via BidPal.net.
