25 Years Ago in the Nineties: Color Me Badd “I Wanna Sex You Up”

Oklahoma City-based vocal group Color Me Badd nearly hit number one with their first three singles to chart on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart. Their second and third singles — “I Adore Mi Amor” and “All 4 Love,” respectively — both topped the charts, bettering the success of their first single, “I Wanna Sex You Up,” which spent four weeks at number 2. Exactly 25 years ago, “I Wanna Sex You Up,” from the film New Jack City, was in its fourth and final week at that peak position.
