GERALD LEVERT: THE PAIN BEHIND THE VOICE 

"Baby, hold on to me," was and STILL is everything . ❤️ you Gerld RIP 🙏🏽

He also was apart of LSG. Gerald Levert, Keith Sweat, Johnny Gill. They had a great album.

RIP Mr. Gerald Levert. RIP Mr. Sean Levert. When my sister informed me of the passing of the teddy bear 🧸 I cried . The tragic and untimely passing of Gerald and Sean broke my heart. Mark love you too. RIP Hev! These men left their mark on the world. I had an opportunity to see Mr. Levert and Kelly Price perform along with LL Cool J while visiting my sister in Baltimore at free concert at one of the famous parks. Every time I think of King Gerald I smile and cry. I felt like he was family. He had an undeniable beautiful warm smile.

Man Gerald was a fool he knew he could cut up & roll around on the floor; I just loved him such a great entertainer ‼️🎤🎤

I miss his music. He had such a passionate soul, and it definitely came through in his music. Continue to Rest In Peace, Gerald.

“Pop pop pop pop goes my mind” classic

He lost both of his sons not even a year apart 💔💔

So Sad Abt Gerald & How They Did Sean!! I Can't Even Begin To Fathom What His Parents Went Thru & Are Still Going Thru!! #RIPGERALDLEVERT & #SEANLEVERT 🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏🕊🙏

Mr. Sean Edward Levert September 28, 1968-March 30, 2008 #RESPECT #LEGENDARY #SEANEDWARDLEVERT #RESTINPARADISEMRLEVERT #GONEBUTNEVERFORGOTTEN

I cried when big homie died and cried when Whitney and Mike died also..

Great story on G. The Grammy was won in 2007. The song was In My Song from his last solo album. I’m a big fan of G. I have over 100 albums of collaboration as a songwriter and producer of other artists.

Gerald was one of my generations GREATEST writers.

RIP KING ! Luv that Documentry

Rip 💐💐💐 Ms. Levert ,Gerald and Sean prayers to the family 💛💛💛 "I'm still" one of my favorite songs by Levert

Gerald Levert was sooo talented! 🔥🔥🔥 Yes please do a review on Heavy D! 🙏🏾

RIP Gerald Levert🙏🏾🙏🏾🕊🕊♥️♥️

The footage of Sean was horrible😭😔! RIP Sean.

I hate that record labels think they know what WE want. Gerald had multiple generations that loved his music. I still remember where I was when I heard the news. I went into work and we all, men included, had a very somber day.

I know the hurting feeling his dad feels burying his kids before they can bury him. R.I.P. Gerald and Sean I still jam the Levert music especially Casanova and Answering service, I remember the new jack scene singing Living for the city

Gerald and Sean gone to soon....rest in peace my Kings.....

Thanks for the story! He is sooo missed🥰🧸

I'm loving these❤. Keep up the good work. RIP Gerald.

Gerald Levert was one of favorite singers. I sure do missed him a lot

The late great Gerald Levert was the greatest soul singer of his generation he did create his own identity and his own distinct vocals similar to his old man but he has more improvisation than his dad he could also sing in falsetto please folks check out Gerald Levert on Closure, Baby You’re Funny and When it matter released as a Japanese bonus in Groove On.

Gerald sounded JUST LIKE his Dad.

LSG was an amazing group with great music 🎶 ❤️❤️ RIP KING🕊

Gerald Levert had ascended to another level there was/is no competition between him and Usher and Justin Timberlake of all ppl That’s an insult

I saw that documentary about his father and he definitely blamed his self for Gerald getting into the music industry! And ur right he shouldn't blame his self, because they really wanted to get into the music industry!

I still have their "I get hot" cassette. I love and miss Gerald. Levert was a great group. Gerald has wonderful solo projects as well.

This was a great story. Like every woman out her I too was n luv with him. I still 😢 hearing his songs. Thank you for this.

This is absolutely tragic losses to his parents and family members.

RIP Levert brothers

Great story telling. 👏🏾 . My favorite Gerald LeVert song 🎵 is "Whatever it takes" song by Anita Baker. Gerald LeVert wrote it. The words my God. What was he thinking and experiencing at the age of 22 or 24. Everytime I hear this song I get in my feelings and cry. I personally think when Whitney Houston (Our last cupid) and Gerald LeVert (Our last real crooner) died is when love music stopped. When black folks started falling out of love with each other and started a division. I personally think it systematic? It seemed like both artists love loved, wanted to be loved and wanted others to FEEL love. I miss good men (gentlemen), I miss love songs and I miss good love ❤️.

I absolutely love your voice and your delivery! Killing it fella…

Damn losing two sons in less than two years is DEVASTATING 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

PRAYERS OF LOVE AND❤💯 STRENGTH TO FAMILY ❤💯 PRAYERS OF SALVATION TO ALL❤💯

These stories are always very sad 😥 to tell, like the Mighty Ojay's, Gerald LeVert, was so gifted just like his father Eddie of the Ojay's, this was such an amazing family of singers, you are missed Gerald 😥.

Sean's last moments are so hard to watch

My deepest condolences goes out to the loved ones of the Levart Brothers. 🤲🏽💜

his music was so and wonderful make you want to sang and Enjoyed thank for the music and memory

I loveeeeeee me some Gerald Levert!!! 🖤 At the tender age of 10, I asked my mom if I could sing “Thinkin Bout It” or “Answering Service” at the yearly talent show. She said “NO pick another song”. Idk why I liked that song so much or what lil girl hurt my feelings but both songs were my ish 🤣🤣🤣🤣 so sad how we’ve lost so many unique voices. Him & Dino from H-Town were my favorites back in the day. Love this channel, definitely subscribing! Your voice is soothing lol 🖤

Very well done! Sad but informative. Great singer who died too young! Sad about Sean too.

Gerald Levert, one of the best vocalists that ever did it!!! We jus coolin as usual..... RIP G!

Never knew they were Jehovah Witness

I never knew or met him, but he's my cousin on my Dad's side. I was shocked when I found out! That's super sad what happened to his brother😔😡. R.I.P to them both💕.

Thank you for covering him, I thought we never new the whole Story. God keep protection over his Family,Thank God for the law Being past because of Thier BABY ❤️❤️❤️.. Father And Son is A legend will never for get them ❤️❤️❤️ God Bless Heavy D, much love him ❤️❤️❤️ He's a legend. as well.

I wanted to marry this man when I was young I love him so much i wish I would’ve had a chance to meet him

I will always Love you G wherever he is in the spirit world you is sing RIP G we will always remember G and Sean

I'm sorry he went out like that

Them prison officers are devil's for treating Gerald Levert, brother like he is nothing. Seeing that footage of them man handling him on the floor made me cry. He was treated inhuman by them prison officers on purpose just because of who he was he got hated on for being a black man with a high profile. Whenever black entertainers fall from grace they always end up with no money which for me is crazy and not a coincidence. Gerald Levert, was such a blessed man he felt like he had to get back on the raod to make money to take care of not just himself, but all the other people around him in need that is amazing. But he needed to rest up and concentrate on his health first as health is wealth. But on a real this is why they say money is the route of all evil. I can see why his father was trying to protect him from the industry and all the pressure that comes with being famous.

Yes you are correct.....I'm from Philly & group "Levert" was signed to Philadelphia International Records......located In Center City at Broad & Lombard streets. Spearheaded by Gamble & Huff.....They signed greats like "McFadden & Whitehead", "MFSB", 'Billy Paul", "The Delfonics" & many more...."Levert" fit that roster very well....My jump was "Cassanova"....💯❤❤❤❤💯❤❤

I’m from Cleveland oh & people still sick about what happened 2 him & his brother🙏🏾 Thanks a million 4 that story bruh deff gave me goosebumps💯🤟🏾 Rip GLevert & SLevert

You are doing a great job!! I would like too Here a story on Miki Howard ‼️. Rest in peace too Both Brothers 🙏🏽💔😭👏🏾🙌🏽

Loved me some Gerald and Sean 2years between them losing their lives so sad r.i.h.p 2006 and 2008.

I have loved ❤️ Levert, from the moment they hit the music scene, Gerald and his brother Sean were music royalty, with a father like Eddie Levert what else could they be, these men are so missed, to their father, I know they are strongly missed.

You forgot about the song "Private Line" which was a big hit and Barry Whites "Practice what you Preach", but good job.

These videos shines a lot of light 💡 on so many levels

All my family is from various parts of OH: Akron, Cincy, Toledo and Cleveland. My Grandfather played the Bass, Drums, and Horns for Motown while my Grandmother was a back up singer in their earlier years in Detroit before moving to Ohio. My Mother grew up on the same street as the Levert Family and both of my Grandparents were friends of their Father, Mr. Eddie Levert. My family (Grandmother still is) grew up in “The Truth” aka as Jehovah’s Witnesses. Very small world.

You forgot to mention that Gerald teamed up with Keith Sweat and Johnny Gill! The group was called, L S G! I HAVE THE ALBUM TO PROVE IT!

I keep gerald levert slowed on replay.rip

I love him!!! My favorite song was " I Just Can't Help Myself" from the movie Strapped!! Ohio hails a lot of talent..... RIH King 💔💔💔💔💔

Anxiety does not kill

Thanks for doing this one brother. My step father knew them. I have here in my possession some pictures of my step dad (Pop) attending Sean Levert's wedding celebration with his family and friends. RIP they're surely missed.

I loved the okays I loved Gerald 😍 ❤️ I just thought they were both blessed with talent and every time the okays came to New York I was there and when his son group was together they came I was there they gave spectacular shows I feel so hurt for the mother the lost of 2 sons and both in tragic ways 🙏 rip both of you and just know your music will never be forgotten much love ❤️

Thank you for this video. I love the Leverts. I never knew how Sean actually died. SMH!!!! RIP Levert Brothers!!!!

R.I.P. Gerald and Sean Leverett. Thanks for posting. I remember when all this happened. Gerald was an awesome artists and sounded nearly identical to his dad. But after listening to them both sing it was actually after Geralds death and before Sean's that I could actually tell them apart. ❤❤❤

Levert was one of my favorites!!!

Worked with Big G and Sean back in 2000. G had me produce for his group Dark BLU!!!!! RIP to Buddy, Sean, Momma Martha, Murph and Gerald!

Rip love the hole family

Before he died he had duets with people including his father Eddie you are the wind beneath my wings. Rest in peace to a legend whose music touch the hearts of me & my parents. I lost my dad and the last CD he bought was gerald levert the duets. My mom & dad both loved his music and have him & the ojays / Eddie levert.

Wow.... so sad what happens to a lot of black stars 😔

Loved Gerald's music and was brought up on the music of the O'Jays. Still listening to both.

It’s so crazy. I’ve been listening to his song Baby I’m Ready on repeat for the past like month or two and I didn’t even know this was about him until I started watching it😭

I truly enjoyed your style of narration😉
