I saw it on CNN.com while I was at work and I said it can't be true. But I know it was becasue it was on CNN. I'm still recovering from Luther passing and now this.

RIP Gerald. You will be missed.

Yep. I suspect there are a lot of talented people in Heaven kind of like the "I Ain't Mad Atcha" Tupac video. Holding concerts with Jesus doing the funky four corners. Nonsecular, of course.

While listening to the BET Late Night Tribute in the background...

My Fav Levert song: Cassanova, ABC 123, Just Cooling, Forever Love

Fav Gerald song: Private Line, School Me (which is on BET now), Baby Hold On To Me, I'll Give Everything

And one of my favorite is when he sang with The Rude Boys: It's Written All Over Your Face (still love that song).

I'm in shock over Gerald Levert. When my friends told me last night----I thought they were joking until I went on line.

Condolences to the Levert family; may God grant you His peace in these difficult days.

Gerald Levert always repped Cleveland, hard. That city (his hometown) might need a sedative behind this. Perhaps the lesson for those of us who remain is to value who we have while we have them. Let the pettiness go, because you truly don't know when you might roll up out of here.

Rest easy, G.

I waited in line to meet Gerald at Manifest Records back in like 2001 or so....he was only scheduled to be there for 2 or 3 hours but the line was still really long after that time had passed...his people kept trying to get him to leave but he refused to until he signed everyone's cd or whatever and he took pics....he was sooo damn nice and humble at the time....I still have that autograph.....who knew it would ever really mean so much so soon....G's music helped get me though basic training (and I needed all the help I could get..lol..).....life is short friends, lets remember to live it to the fullest....
