I was a 16 year old black kid in '85 when I Can't Wait by Nu Shooz was on the radio every 30 minutes and all over MTV. I remember taking shit from all of my friends for liking that song. Because Run DMC and LL Cool J was what we all were listening to at the time and Nu Shooz didn't fit. But I said to hell with that! I'm listening to whatever the hell I want to listen to! You can't close your ears to black music if you are white or white music if you are black. Music has no color. Especially good music.

This was almost a hit single in America. It just missed the top 40. My guess was it was too subdued for pop radio. There is no doubt this single flopping was the end for Nu Shooz. Pop radio and the public at large didn’t really care for their music after this.
