Gerald Levert [2000] - Baby U Are [EastWest #67066-2]


As far as I'm concerned this is Gerald Levert's best track. From the 1999 album 'G' and released as a single in 2000.  It scraped into the Hot 100 and peaked at #89.

He died of an accidental drugs overdose (prescribed and over-the-counter) in Nov 2006. He was son on O'Jay Eddie Levert who tragically also lost his other son Sean due to complications of sarcoidosis only six days into a 22 month prison sentence for failing to pay child support in Mar 2008.

They formed the group Levert with Marc Gordon in 1983 and had twelve US R&B top 10 singles, five of them reaching #1.
