Description

“I Wanna Sex You Up” is a hit single for R&B group Color Me Badd in 1991, released as the first single from their debut album C.M.B.. It achieved a huge success in the U.S., UK and New Zealand, where it reached #1 on the charts. It spent four weeks at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, but topped both the Billboard R&B and Dance charts.

The song spent three weeks at number-one on the UK Singles Chart and reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100. It was the 10th best-selling single of 1991 in the UK. An alternate version also appeared on the New Jack City soundtrack, and in 1992 the song won the group a Soul Train Music Award for Best R&B/Soul Single, Group, Band or Duo and Soul Train Music Award for Best R&B/Soul Song of the Year. The “to the tick tock ya don’t stop” soundbite is sampled from Doug E. Freshs “La Di Da Di.” The bassline and the “I know you not gonna sing that song!” soundbite are sampled from Betty Wrights “Tonight is the Night.” The chorus melody is from The Brothers Johnson song “Strawberry Letter 23”. The song was also ranked at #40 on Blenders list of the “50 Worst Songs Ever” and VH1s “100 Greatest Songs of the 90s”.
Certain radio stations edited the word “sex” out of the song, so DJs refer to the song as “I Wanna Love You Up”.
The song can be heard in an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and in the films New Jack City, You Don’t Mess with the Zohan, and Nothing Like the Holidays.
It was recently covered by the Acafellas on the Episode 3 of Glee “Acafellas”.
In an episode of Beavis & Butt-Head, comments were made saying that Color Me Badd was a “Super Suck Group” which included Kenny G, George Michael, and Snow when viewing the music video for this song. Butt-Head, who made the comments was of course referring to group members Sam Watters, Mark Calderon, and Bryan Abrams respectively. Butt-Head also commented that if he “sang like a wuss” that he would get chicks.
