 Dave Holmes is obsessed: What ever happened to Sudden Impact, the R&B boy band whose arrival was announced in Boyz II Men’s “MotownPhilly” video? What happens when you make a big debut, and then…nothing happens? Waiting For Impact is a deep dive into a disappearance that has haunted pop-culture die-hards since 1991. Dave is determined to track the group down and find out what really happened, and along the way he talks to his friends in the entertainment world— comedians, actors, writers— about the twists and turns that led them from where they were in 1991 to where they are in 2021. It's about high hopes, unexpected results, and why sometimes not getting what you want is the best thing that can happen.2025 HeartMedia, Inc. © Any use of this intellectual property for text and data mining or computational analysis including as training material for artificial intelligence systems is strictly prohibited without express written consent from iHeartMedia Música

    Introducing: Waiting for Impact
    Sep 17 2021

    In 1991, a boy band called Sudden Impact made a big debut in the music video for Boyz II Men’s “MotownPhilly,” and then... they disappeared. Dave Holmes has been obsessed with this story for decades, and now he’s going to find out what happened. The search for answers will take us into the recording industry of the ‘90s, into Michael Bivins’ East Coast Family, into what life was like before the internet ruined us, into the definition of success and the nature of ambition. And that search may just solve an even bigger mystery: why can’t he stop thinking about this?

    Dave Holmes has been obsessed with a pop culture disappearance for decades: what ever happened to Sudden Impact, the boy band who were featured in Boyz II Men’s “Motownphilly” music video and then vanished? Before we dive into the mystery, we’ll need to take a good look at life in 1991, when the music industry was flush, and what it was like to be a pop culture obsessive in a time before the internet. Plus, are we closer to the East Coast Family than we thought?

Dave Holmes tells this story so well, in every episode (so far) I feel like I have stepped back in to 1991 and I am loving it. I am now as invested in Sudden Impact as Dave and I can not wait to hear what happened to them.

I'm hooked.

Enjoying this trip down memory lane with a fellow 90's coming of age homie. Boy bands, girl bands, soloist... it's Jr. high and high school all over again!

The pop culture surrounding this story is fun. I remember when Jessie was picked to be a VJ and Dave had been my personal choice at the time. To this day I often wonder if Jessie ever learned how to speak actual words :p

It’s interesting what goes on behind the scenes of the music industry

Nostalgic fun
