Rude Boys were discovered by Levert. They scored one of two #1's with this funky, bouncy track in 1991. It featured vocals by Gerald Levert.
Great catchy track right here.
The Billboard Hot 100: #16
Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks: #1

I thought the whole "Rude Awakening" album was a great pop R&B album when it was released. "Are You Lonely For Me" and "Heaven" are also mighty fine songs, in fact, just looking thru my spreadsheet of my old charts, I can't believe "...Lonely" only got up to #32 on my chart. "Written..." peaked at #3 and I guess I shoulda made the connection because they were managed by Trevel productions.

This is a really great song... I didn't know Levert discovered them. That's interesting.

This song had a strange chart run on AT40. It moved up to #26 in its third week, stayed at 26 for another week, then proceeded on up the chart to 21. It fell back to 23 the next week and stayed there the week after. It got a second wind the next week, regaining its bullet and moving up to #18, where it held for three weeks. Then, it moved up to 16, fell back to #31 and was off the chart next week. It also dropped off the Hot 100 within a month. I guess everyone got tired of it quickly.
(Note: Even though this was in 1991, this was before the new chart methodology was implemented).
