De single is afkomstig van het album Blacks’ Magic. Het liedje gaat over het veilige vrijen. Alle positieve en negatieve kanten van seks, maar ook de censuur die in die tijd in de Amerikaanse mainstream media over seks heerste.
Het nummer werd o.a. in Nederland goed verkocht. In Amerika werd het nummer niet veel door stations gedraaid en dat terwijl de opbrengst van het nummer naar het Aids fonds ging.
Een alternatieve versie Lets Talk About AIDS werd ook uitgebracht om met meer directere teksten de verspreiding van aids en HIV aan te pakken.

Songtekst
Let's Talk About Sex
[Spinderella cut it up one time!
Hit me Come on]
CHORUS
Let's talk about sex baby, Let's talk about you and me
Let's talk about all the good things, And the bad things that may be
Let's talk about sex x4
Let's talk about sex for now to the people at home or in the crowd
It keeps coming up anyhow
Don't decoy avoid or make void the topic
Cuz that ain't gonna stop it
Now we talk about sex on the radio and video shows
Many will know anything goes
Let's tell it like it is, and how it could be
How it was, and of course, how it should be
Those who think it's dirty have a choice
Pick up the needle, press pause, or turn the radio off
Will that stop us, Pep? I doubt it
All right then, come on, Spin
CHORUS
Hot to trot, make any man's eyes pop
She use what she got to get whatever she don't got
Fellas drool like fools, but then again they're only human
The chick was a hit because her body was boomin'
Gold, pearls, rubies, crazy diamonds
Nothin' she ever wore was ever common
Her dates heads of state, men of taste
Lawyers, doctors, no one was too great for her to get with
Or even mess with, the Prez she says was next on her list
And believe me, you, it's as good as true
There ain't a man alive that she couldn't get next to
She had it all in the bag so she should have been glad
But she was mad and sad and feelin' bad
Thinkin' about the things that she never had
No love, just sex, followed next with a check and a note
That last night was dope
Let's talk about sex, baby (sing it)
Let's talk about you and me (sing it, sing it)
Let's talk about all the good things
And the bad things that may be
Let's talk about sex (come on)
Let's talk about sex (do it)
Let's talk about sex (uh-huh)
Let's talk about sex
Ladies, all the ladies, louder now, help me out
Come on, all the ladies - let's talk about sex! All right
(repeat)
[Yo, Pep, I don't think they're gonna play this on the radio
And why not? Everybody has sex
I mean, everybody should be makin' love
Come on, how many guys you know make love
CHORUS
