Lyrics:
My I.U. is gone
I miss him everyday
Ah, mh, yeah
Mh, ah, oh, yeah
Mh, ah, oh, yeah
Mh, ah, oh, yeah
Oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh no
Heavy, heavy
Oh sugar
I'm sugar free
In the night
I'm sugar free
In the day
My sweetheart
Had to go away
For a little while
And when my I.U
Is not here with me
I'm the helpless type
I'm sugar free
In the night
(So lonely, so lonely)
I'm sugar free
In the day
(So lonely, yeah)
I know he loves me
I know he cares
Cause he's all mine
And soon he'll be knockin'
At my door
Things will be alright
I'm sugar free
In the night
(So lonely, so lonely)
I'm sugar free
In the day
(I feel so lonely, yeah)
Listen, let me explain
I like livin' my life in the fast lane
Partyin' hard and havin' fun
Females - I need more than one
Straight up and down on the serious tip
I ain't with no relationship
It may sound like a diss but believe me it's not
Matter of fact I really like you a lot
But it's a dead issue for you to pursue
Cause yo boo, I like you but I like others too
The heartaches, the breaks, the pains, I don't need em
Instead give me some head and a whole lotta freedom
I like to swing, I ain't with no commitment
Parties, ladies and beer by the shipment
But when I do my thing you get mad
Call me on the telephone soundin' all sad
Don't mean to hurt your feelings, my dear
But listen here, I'm the mack of the year
So if you have plans to settle down with me
I guess you just have to be - sugar free
Oh my sugar's gone
He's gone away
I miss him every night
And every day
Oh my sugar's gone
He's gone away
I miss him every night
And every day
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Everyday, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
My sugar is gone
I.U.
I.U.
My sugar is gone
Oh sugar
Heavy
My sugar's gone
Oh my sugar's gone
He's gone away
Yo, that sounds beautiful
That's another rapid shipment

I swear the 80’s had some of the coldest bass lines ever!
They got it from the 70s!!
& crisp too
As an 80s baby, I love love love this song, and I dig its sample "Sugar Hill" by AZ. Classic music is timeless.
So plush 🔥

Rest in Peace, James Mtume. Thank you for the music.
James MTUME is not behind the production of this eclectic hit. The uploader posted the wrong photo.
This song is my Juicy

@@originalkingalpha5116 no, mtume did the song first, this version is mtume
@@Stress7820 youre right. mtume did juicy fruit and this was the response song to it so most people just thought it was mtume. Its from Juicy from the album it takes 2

Sugar Free by Juicy, what a tune in the 80's, so many memories from this track. Can never tire of this song.
MTUME YOU MEAN ?
@@tonyebiere551 Nope! Stuart is correct! Katreese Barnes and her brother Jerry Barnes formed the duo group titled Juicy; and she's singing the leading vocals of this hit!

One of the best albums of that year, I was a teenager when this dropped. Best time of my life
Who's rocking this in 2024?🎵🎵 This is the scheenit...❤
Thank you for posting this superb track! However, this track, "Sugar Free" is a song by Juicy from the album titled, "It takes two" while "Juicy Fruit" is a song by Mtume from the album also titled, "Juicy Fruit".
Correct...
Correct
Word Up... I have both artists on track.... $CBK$
The current generation hasn’t the talent to sing this kind of mind soothing song.
The 21st Century Music has lost it Soul = Soul Music🤦🏾♀️
@@lastdays3148 They're not artists anymore they're just business people.
LV is the only one i know with that same kind of soul but on some gangsta shyt. Nate Dogg too… Butch Cassidy & Kokane embodies tha funk too. But thats probably the last great artists of my generation that i can name off top.
Im trying to bring it back. Or at least show that there are kids who grew up listening to this who are 24-27 right now. I live to make this type of music again
I disagree. They have the talent but they're not encouraged to develop it.
This is music!! Clean, meaningful words with a message from the heart. We need this style music today .
Yes indeed ☝🏿
@@bossman6529 yup
That's right, although it'll never hit home like these classic soulful funky vibes do!!
So let's keep playing and teaching the youth about the funk!
Long live disco, funk and soul.......
@@kinikee7884 aaaaaa
So clean%
Man this a biigggg tune, back in the 80s used to blast this song in my bedroom flashing my leisure curl curly perm. The good old days 😂💦🎼🎶💖💕
The older the music the better. You know it had to be great to get us black folks through rough times.
Yes Sir Brotha! By the Power of Almighty God and good Ol R&B Music like this, We made it through a lot of rough times!
i miss music like this , bring back the REAL JAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mark Ronson, Jamiroquai and Bruno Mars and recently Ice Cube is doing something bringin back that jammin. 😉
I heard that!! Don't be sad this time is over just be glad we were there when sj*t was real, music, people's bodies and when we all had some privacy, please I wanna go to that vibe!!!
Still blasting this tune out 2019!!
Who's checkin for this in 2020?🙋🏿♂️
🙋
Me...🤗
🎵🎶
And you know it!
Forever 💯💯
35 years old, this music stuck to my soul as a young boy, timeless!!!
I'm just now correlating that sugar hill came from them just like juicy lol where was I?
Yessss
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@dieselcannon86 I love the 3 degrees
This song came out 1983. It's more than 35 years old. 2023
Music like this will never gets old.
Still crispy.... way ahead of their time❤️
juicey recorded sugar free in 86....mtume dropped juicy fruit in 83 there would be no sugar free without juicy fruit
Growing up as a kid in the 1980s; Brooklyn roller skating with grown ups to this song inside of the Empire Roller skating Rink.
Timeless R&B classic!
1980s had some of the best R&B dance music!
Brings BIG TEARS to my eyes! Such a great song!!!!!!
Pure classic…this song is timeless💯
This is the highway jam... 💓💚💓 💘
Yeah that's it!!!
What u know bout it
The beat and bass line is sick.
D Money keeps your head bobbin

Compton’s Most wanted samples this track for a song called “It’s A Compton Thang.”czcams.com/video/5DXwLPhPgko/video.html
You damn right, bro! Big hello from UK. Take it easy.......
dr. deep stfu
RIP big man ...thank you for the memories with the music you gave us.
This type of R&B music will never go out of style and will last forever, R.I.P James Mtume and the beautiful sista that was with the group, I apologize for not remembering your name you are loved and appreciated and you are truly missed ❤️
YASSSSSS!!!! BRING MUSIC LIKE THIS BACK
Selena L I will, trust me!!!
Selena L FOR REAL THIS TRASH MUSIC
Selena L Yes I love it!!
Yes I love it!!!
This track is everythang fya
No synthesizer,no audio tune, no computer just straight up instruments 💕 im glad i came up in the 80's
Edit: I see in the comments it is synthesizers being use yet no auto tune, MY BAD! I JUST KNOW COMPARED TO THIS BS WE LISTENING TO TODAY… 80’s R&B hands down❤️
I totally agree cuz were one of da same groovy n a dying breed..ur west Coast breez
Same!
They're definitely using multiple synthesizers in this. That's not a good or a bad thing. All about how you use it.
No doubt.
They’re actually using a synthesizer you can hear it in the beginning that’s one bad funky baseline though lol 💎
2021 and this song still gives me goosebumps!!!
2022 now buddy😎
about 2b 2023 next month!
After thirty years, this song is like aged brandy; SMOOTH and TASTFUL!!!!
I'm bumping this like it dropped yesterday
Thats hiw it be!!! Thus my ish..im only 38 but i know good ol skool music and this is it..isssaaaaa zooooone
Boonie Boo The Bump Was the dance back then...
Done know
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lmao😂
This song takes me back to the early 80's in Brooklyn...playing on the stoop during those hot summer days while someone had a boombox playing that real R&B. Those were good times
One of the best R&B groups of the 80's and 90's 🎤🎼🎶✌👌👍
who? mtume or juicy?
Very thankful for the contributions of James Mtume (rip) to the sound of Black music history. 🕊💓🕊
this is not james Mtume...
Not to mention you he and me Classics
Haven't heard this in ages, love it , brings back memories
I love this beat. So many shit in the 80,s! Mtume, eugene wilde, the controllers, atlantic starr, rene & angela, and......
That’s what you call soul music
A classic!!!
That beat straight knocks. Summer time cruising music. 2019!!!
How can 859 people dislike this tune ?!! if you don't like listening to good music go somewhere else
Have a nice soulful day !!
Tell them to listen to phonies like Robin Thicke, Beyonce, Jay-Z, etc
They gotta be lost trolls or not from the 80's era.
Easy young and rap lovers no concept of real music
you are so right!
They don't no nothing about good music
Rest In Peace James Mtume🙏 Thank you for all the great music🤗
grrr..not MTUME
My song right here!!! I play it everyday ❤️
You dont have to be lonely nomore, whats your digits? Lol
Who else is still jammin to this in 2020? ❤
Mee
👍😎
U still old school who appreciates real music wit dat groovness
Old school folks from west Coast breez

This was when parents weren't afraid of what their kids were listening to on the radio!
SASSY CHASSY
Facts , no concerns
Say nomo
Right
True
One of the best songs ever!
Anyone in their 50's through 70's living today was on the dance floor when this song came out! This was a smoking hot jam and you put it in on the dance floor back sore or not! Mtume was a genius!
That bass slap! One of the best basslines I've heard in a r&b song hands down
brings me back nothing but good Chicago summer days, skating up and down 67th, Lakefront
Milwaukee was my spot....@ the lake front
Omg yesss or skating at Skate City on 63rd and Ada... Chi town
Racquel Randle yes ma’am
Racquel Randle never hungout that far south! But I do remember Chicago back then. Great times
We can Skate and Bring Memorable moments Back together
This my shit , always has been, and will be. Can't ever go wrong with old school magic like this
“ SUGAR HILL BABY!” - Sugar Hill by AZ.
Just realise the realism of life...
That's what brought me here
It's a Compton Thang by MC Eiht and Compton's most wanted circa 1990
The good ol days when families were really close and neighbors watched out for one another
Lover of the 80's ..true my friend!
Lover of the 80's I could relate to that it was less killing back then
I love the 80s music there's nothing like it it's not like listen to this b******* that we have nowadays
Lover of the 80's you right about just don't give a damn
Back when black lives truly mattered.
this isn't Mtume this is Juicy's version
an answer record to the Mtume song "Juicy Fruit" called "Sugar Free" by the band Juicy American musical duo consisting of siblings Jerry Barnes and Katreese Barnes
They Keep Getting It Wrong. Then I Scroll Down They Have It Right With Thee Brutha And Sista.
This isn't a version of juicy friut. Has nothing to do with Mtume.
Right...they uploaded it wrong...
This Scholar of music is absolutely correct.
@@hcurtisbruner i just love music and also love learning about who wrote the song , produced it , played what instruments etc
Nothing but love ❤
Sittn here with my boyfriend reminiscing & listening. Hey yall!! Toledo, Ohio in the house!!!

Wallace4461 HELL YEAH, AND PASS THE SPLIFF
SWEET
Love that bass sounds perfect
It's Jerry Barnes on bass. He's great !
Got this on repeat 5.20.24 driving my wife crazy. It was banging in the 80's and it still got me chill.
I hated these old jams as a kid! When I realized how the new school was sampling old school 🤷🏾♀️ much respect now 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
TRUE SINGERS , TRUE MUSICIANS , TRUE PRODUCERS , TRUE LISTENERS , TRUE BLACK & SOUL MUSIC !!!!! WHEN WE WERE THE KINGS. !!!!!!!!! RIP!!
They don't have the move, they don't have the groove and they don't have the BRAIN to understand this MusiC! I am so glad that I got all this stuff.
James Mtume had his own stamp on funk. No other band had this sound. Very unique Funk.
Kinda like Rick James, Stone City Band, they had a unique funk style too.
Tawatha, Thigh Ride!
Classic song Classic group Rip James Mtume 🙏🏾
IM SOOOO GLAD PEOPLE WHO REALLY REMEMBER THIS SONG LET PEOPLE KNOW WHO THIS WAS!!! ANOTHER ONE HIT WONDER BY THE GROUP JUICY. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH ERICA REECE!

Rest in paradise 😇 James MTUME your music will live on throughout eternity 1946-2022
this is not mtume....
@@HolyRollerTV I know it’s not mtume who sings this song but the guy from the group mtume produced this song. The song is by a group called juicy
@@MrBigtodd again you are incorrect the song 'sugar free' was produced by the legend Eumir Deodato...it actually says who produced it on the sleeve notes of the record...james mtume had nothing to do with the record in any way...i know you want it to be so, but that is not the reality
