I can only imagine what Eddie was going through losing not one but both his talented sons right behind each other. My prayers remain with the family 🙏Gerald was THE voice of the group. I loved that duet he did with his dad. RIP Gerald & Sean 🙏
Best father and son duo in history...... hands down.... could only imagine holidays and family dinners..... singing kids to sleep..... had to be awesome
LeVert was that group back in the day. Casanova and Pop, Pop, Pop (Goes My Mind) are in constant replay on my Spotify playlist 🥰😍 They will never be another Gerald Levert; his voice was one of a kind.
As a Clevelander I would like to say thank you to the Leverts they did us proud and will forever be in our hearts 🥰 we are forever grateful for the gifts they left behind
It’s so sad to me how the brothers died, I feel so sorry for their father too, you think of everything you could have done differently and this only makes this worst. Blessing to the Levert family 🙏🏾💜
I discovered this group by accident while washing my uncles car he had the cassette and I played it and was hooked ever since, Thank you for doing something on this unappreciated group.
I produced for Gerald and Sean! G flew me in to work with his group Dark Blu back in 2000! Lived with G for 9 months!!!! They both was like brothers and we all looked out for each other! Miss them dearly and had some of the best times ever with these brothers!! Shout out to the family and Cleveland!! RIP!!!!!
It really was...... The way the Levert brothers passed away, and my heart goes out to their father as well over the heartache he must have dealt with.....I pray he has found some peace and strength with that. Guilt is so hard to go through.
Oh wow I didn't know their mother passed away that is so sad r.i.p. to all of them Eddie Levert is rite you definitely have to be careful how you move in life the things you do can fall/hurt your kids later in life
Tragic is so appropriate a word. So much talent lost way too early. I can remember like it was yesterday watching Levert sing Casanova on Showtime at the Apollo.
Gerald and his brother both discovered and put this Male R&B Vocal Group together back in 1999 known as Dark Blu that were on Soul Train Season 30, Espoide 25 that aired April 28th, 2001. I work closely with the original singers of the group as Gerald Levert was a big mentor to them. It's a tragic loss for both brothers but the Levert legacy will live on forever.
I still remember being in high school and the quiet storm playing pop pop pop goes my mind and baby I'm ready... Gerald Levert's voice is second to none... Man the pain Eddie must still feel but it wasn't his fault.. He wanted to help his kids and see their dreams come true... As for not calling right back not his fault either.. U could tell he loved his sons.. We've all had to learn that lesson tho.. Tell someone u love them everyday.... Our time belongs to God... Per usual amazing journalism. I love this channel
My actual cousins who all died too young. Their father, Eddie, is still alive. His mother is my father's aunt, Blanch is my great aunt! My uncle Bay In Detroit was good friends with Eddie when he lived in Detroit. My uncle took my to Eddie’s house there when I was performing at the Paradise Lounge but Eddie wasn’t home! Long live Eddie Levert!
I dated Katrice thats how i met Gerald and Sean if i didnt know any better i think Johnny Gill knows how they died cause Gerald was leaving LSG cause of that weird shit Eddie and Johnny was doing
It’s funny how men blame women when they cheat on their wives. They said their mother was naïve about the temptations their father faced on the road. How about their dad control his urges? Instead they blame their mother for the marriage breakdown because she rightfully expected her husband to be faithful.
Gerald and Sean Levert came from R&B royalty. They were destined 4 greatness, having a father who was part of the legendary R&B group The O'Jays! With Gerald and Sean, plus Marc Gordon, their group Levert became very popular n the music industry. They appeared in the movie New Jack City singing by a makeshift fireplace 2 keep warm. They had a very appealing sound and the look to go with it! Gerald always stood out amongst the group as the sexy, smooth crooner. Gerald and Sean will remain n our hearts 💕 4ever. May they both Rest n Peace. Kudos 2 Marc Gordon 4 keeping the memory of Gerald and Sean alive! Marc and Levert II, we love u and hope u will continue 2 make sweet music or get back 2 it! Good, heart warming, soul touching music like you all made is hard 2 come by anymore.
Listen!! Levert needs their due baby!! The pictures of them with the Jheri curls is giving me 80’s nostalgia. RIP Gerald & Sean. My mama has all their albums.
Levert was good But Gerald by himself was BOMB 💣I'm ole school & I roll with CD's & any rode trip with me U will hear 'School Me & Its Funny' 🎵 Definitely on my list of favorite slow jams 🎵 Such a sad ending R.I.P.🕊
And I had to come back and add their rendetion of living just enough for the city feat queen Latifah in New Jack city is still the best version... So soulful...
I've known Jerald And Shawn since they were just Little Guy's and Eddie and Walter Williams since 1968. I love Them like my Own Brother's, And Unckles,Very Talented and Just Good People......My Brother's From Another Mother 💞💞💞
she sometimes acted like she was too good for G(so I heard)..she used to (allegedly)deal with MJ so her head got big after that..and the dope didnt help
Eddie has to live with not returning his son's call. Wow! Why did the guards take Sean's meds from him? That jail killed him because he needed his meds! Sad sad sad🕊
@Aretha- they cannot administer medication if the inmate is not in the hospital ward..... it's protocol to take all possessions upon entry to jail or prison. However, they were aware he needed medical attention and didn't act which lead to the withdrawals that would later cause his demise. Very sad, yet happens more often than discussed.
I also want to say I LIVE FOR THESE VIDEOS ❤️❤️ it’s nothing like a good day of watching TH-cam and you see a notification from this channel 💯 keep them coming !!
LeVert had some hits that will last forever but im so glad Gerald Levert( Teddy Bear) went out on a limb to go solo. Gerald LeVert hits will always stayed played in my house..He was the Voice..i just hate that he was so lonely but always stayed with a smile. Both brothers death was a shock to the music industry. RIP to the LeVert Brothers
I remember the day Gerald Passed away So vividly. I was at work & heard about his passing on the radio I listened to on .y desk & I broke down Crying & left work & didn't come back for 2 days. He was & Still is MY FAVORITE SINGER & ITS IRONIC BECAUSE THE O'JAYS WAS MY FAVORITE GROUP! GOD BLESS!
This Group Was One Of The BEST..Gerald, Shawn, & Mark. Were All Very Close..I Miss The Levert Brothers. And, There Dad Eddie Levert Is Still A BAD MAN. And There VOICES WERE PHENOMENAL..I LOVE THIS GROUP AND THE O'JAYS...YOUR FANS MISS YOU GERALD AND SHAWN LEVERT..HOPE, MARK IS DOING WELL AFTER HIS LOST OF HIS TWO GROUP MEMBERS AND BROTHERS..
I Truly miss Gerald Levert... He was my Absolute favorite Male singer...Nobody sounded like him except Pop! I remember I would joke with friends and family and say Gerald was my husband and Eddie was my father in law. I will never forget the day my brother called me and told me he had passed. I cried like a baby. He never got the Recognition he truly deserved. Everyone singing today sounds the same. R.I.P Gerald you always knew how to put it Down!!
Omg. Had no idea Shawn passed away also - he was just 39. 😞 And when I think about Gerald’s passing at the young age of 40, it’s heartbreaking...he made so much music we love and still enjoy today. RIH to them both.
My mom absolutely loved that group.. I remember her waking us up to them to get ready for school. Oh how I miss those days. Good memories and good music.
I have home photos of Sean's wedding reception in my photo album, courtesy of my step father who knew the Levert family. These young brothers are gone too soon. RIP Gerald & Sean Levert.
I remember watching Gerald and Eddie sing Wind Beneath My Wings on Soul Train. I cannot imagine the pain of losing 2 sons so young. I hope they rest in peace
First off The O'Jays where my favorite group back in the day. Along with millions of other fans I don't believe another group today, can sing like they did. I lost my daughter to cancer, so I know the pain that he's going through with losing both of his talented Sons. My heart goes out to you Eddie but we must learn to live with the pain until we see them again. Love you love you love you as I did your Sons. You make sure to continue taking care of yourself and I'd love to hear another song or album from you. May God continue to bless you.
During some of my most depressive months and year I discovered their song Casanova and fell in love. I enjoyed learning more about them Thank you 🙏🏾. RIP to the brothers and their mother
Sean was a really really really cool guy I went to school with him on Cleveland, Ohio. Shaker Height High School turn out some great people. Sean would sing at our school parties. He graduated in 1987 and I in 1988. When I was headed to the high school Gerald had graduated in 1984. These was some AWESOME years in school. I miss both of them dearly.
I remember going to a concert a few years ago with El Debarge, Keith Sweat, Johnny Gill, and Eddie Levert. El gave a tribute to his brothers and then LSG. Levert( Eddie), he sang Gerald's parts. It was sooo Beautiful. I felt it was a Memorial to All. From El and Eddie. "My Forever Love" will Always be my favorite. Just the start of the song is Everything!
When the author, of the video, made the comment, Sean engaged in drugs and unprotected sex, I thought that she was going to say that he had a incurable disease. Now I'm thinking to myself, was that part necessary! 🤷🏾♀️ R.I.P Gerald, Sean and their mom.
You cover these stories with such tenderness and class. As an addict in recovery (13 years clean!😊) I appreciate how you use the term "substances" rather than naming them or making speculations. Truly one of the very best on TH-cam. I'd love to see you get a Netflix show- I'm betting you'd be an incredible interviewer too! As always, thank you for the work you put in!💖
Congratulations on your sobriety! People make fun of us for using of the word “substances,” not realizing that it is used out of respect for the artists and their families ❤️❤️ Thanks for watching!
So heartbreaking to hear their mother passed last yr idk..this musical family has given so much, I'll always be a loyal fan of the Ojays, Levert and Gerald Levert. So proud of the rich history and musical legacy of this family. Missing you so much G. Blessings always out to Eddie & entire family. Thanks for the Love.
The sad part is, this younger generation will never understand or appreciate how great they were. I'm not a Chruch going person (Next to the Government it's the biggest Con-game out there), but when I hear their music I have to stop in my tracks and take in the holy spirit!

And then the song that gets played by the O’Jays during the holiday season is “Christmas Just Ain’t Christmas (Without The Ones You Love)😢❤️

I read an interview he did before Sean passed and he said he asked God why he couldn’t have his boy. I broke down in the store

Best father and son duo in history...... hands down.... could only imagine holidays and family dinners..... singing kids to sleep..... had to be awesome
Boy I bet just seeing this got me want to take a nap 😆
Singing kids to sleep 😂☺️
True that.
Not meeting Gerald Levert still breaks my heart....
LeVert were R&B legends. They should get into the National Rhythm & Blues Music Hall of Fame. I'm actually shocked that they aren't!
I really miss him. There’s nothing else to say. I miss him.
Me too I miss them different Ohio just like bone they're from Cleveland Ohio just like Bone thugs and Harmony is

Yes indeed downtown cle was packed when gerald passed
Ojays,Lavert and LSG was the shit, dam I miss real ass R&B.
Geralad Levert was the shit!!!! They just don’t know
Patti Labelle loved her some Gerald
He was very consistent, a bit like joe thomas, keith sweat, donell jones kem.
What do you mean!?
Yes he was! I was fortunate enough to see him live several times, including when he was with LSG.
It’s so sad to me how the brothers died, I feel so sorry for their father too, you think of everything you could have done differently and this only makes this worst. Blessing to the Levert family 🙏🏾💜
the way Levert & Troop KILLED that part in New Jack City is one of my favorite things in life 😍😍😍🔥🔥
They Sure Did
I looooove it lol..we used to sing that part and laugh so hard wen they sing "Cityyyy eeee eeee, eeee eeeee, ooooh yeaaaah!"

Thanks so much for watching ❤️
Great memory♥️
It's hard to believe that Gerald was so young! He seemed so much older than 40 when he passed
Ikr
Thats cause he was 19 when levert first came out (i know. He looked much older)
The music industry, aka The Devil's Den, will do that to you.
He look so old with kandi
He really did. He had an old soul.

That is a horrible moral

The more you make. The more they need. Family is the worst.

It set the context for later talking about his jail time for failing to pay child support for 3 of his 6 kids…
@@richardpayton9671 ❤️❤️❤️
You missed the point but it’s all good.
HA!! I got the point. Sooo, unprotected sex caused him to not pay child support and die in jail. Gotcha.
I had the biggest crush on Gerald Levert, Oh Lawd! He came to Chicago at The World's Largest Stepping Contest and the women almost killed him!
😩😩
I could image, I was always screaming into the tv "don't kill me big man, don't kill me" and when he did his moves, I grasped for air
I love ‘In My Songs’ by Gerald LeVert 😩🥰!!!
Sad story. But, we still have great memories of Gerald and Shawn. RIP
Gerald and his brother are missed 😭❤️
Miss both of you bro
Sad, but I like "just coolin" ft Heavy D. .
OH HOW I MISS THEM!!! CLASSIC TIMELESS MUSIC THAT NEVA GET OLD.. SHO NUFF TOP 5 IN MY PLAY LIST❤️❤️❤️
I remember my Pops riding through the city in his Saab bumpn "Pop pop pop" with me in the passenger seat and the roof open (80's Baby)
This is such a sad story... I still continue to listen to their music it is therapy for me.
I never realized how young they were when they died
I always wondered what happened to them.
@@l.jennings130 Huhhh?
The last remaining member of the group Marc Gordon is still with us he has a Facebook and Instagram page show him some love
Their cousin Marc Gordon was such an underrated producer!
Very Underrated! His pen game is 🔥🔥🔥
Hold up,I'm flabbergasted that gerald had a group, WOW that's a true blessing all Eddie boy's was talented.
toosweet you don’t remember the song Casanova?
@@summerraine3934 yes but I didn't know it was a group song😂🤣. just like that pop,pop song and baby I'm ready.
@@toosweet1327 well Gerald was the main singer so I see why you thought that. He was the Beyonce of the group 😆
@@summerraine3934 okay 😂so now that make sense.
Wow!
Love me some Gerald Levert..I was sooooo heartbroken when he passed away
I was blessed to see Gerald in concert a year before he passed away. What a huge loss! RIP Gerald & Sean!
You cover these stories with such tenderness and class. As an addict in recovery (13 years clean!😊) I appreciate how you use the term "substances" rather than naming them or making speculations. Truly one of the very best on TH-cam. I'd love to see you get a Netflix show- I'm betting you'd be an incredible interviewer too! As always, thank you for the work you put in!💖
Congratulations on your sobriety! People make fun of us for using of the word “substances,” not realizing that it is used out of respect for the artists and their families ❤️❤️ Thanks for watching!
I agree, amazing job!
I remember my daddy winning a talent contest singing Casanova. I miss my dad and Gerald and Sean Levert
Aww that’s a great memory. I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️
I ain't much on Casanova, me and Romeo ain't never been friends.
That's ice cold.
🧊
Gerald had a lot success on his own too, I loved his songs.
That was one sexy thick brotha! Voice kissed by honeysuckle. We miss you Teddy Bear R.I.P
Yeah I miss him too. 😢 I wish he was still here blessing us with his songs 🎵🙏
"REST IN PARADISE TO ALL OF THEM" They are "AWESOME"🙏✨
So heartbreaking to hear their mother passed last yr idk..this musical family has given so much, I'll always be a loyal fan of the Ojays, Levert and Gerald Levert. So proud of the rich history and musical legacy of this family. Missing you so much G.
Blessings always out to Eddie & entire family. Thanks for the Love.
The sad part is, this younger generation will never understand or appreciate how great they were. I'm not a Chruch going person (Next to the Government it's the biggest Con-game out there), but when I hear their music I have to stop in my tracks and take in the holy spirit!
U sound dumb make your mind up fuck a Holy Spirit
@@mitsulegend that’s not nice.
@@34stzoo that was so ugly to say
Man Dang...I Really Miss My Bros Gerald And Sean...They'll Always Be Loved, Missed But Never Forgotten...Fam Fa'Life One Love Fa'Sho...
