The R&B supergroup LSG brought together a trio of genre legends: Gerald Levert, Keith Sweat, and Johnny Gill.
• LSG was the brainchild of Keith Sweat, who made his name in the late ’80s and early ’90s with New Jack Swing hits like “I Want Her” and “Make You Sweat.”
• Sweat called Gerald Levert—known for his solo recordings and work with the group LeVert—and suggested they collaborate with Johnny Gill, a solo star and member of New Edition.
• The trio’s 1997 debut album, Levert.Sweat.Gill, features production from the likes of Jermaine Dupris and Sean “Puffy” Combs and guest appearances from Missy Elliott, LL Cool J, and MC Lyte, among others.
• Led by the hit single “My Body,” the album reached No. 2 Billboad’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and crossed over to No. 4 on the Billboard 200. It’s been certified double platinum.
• Their aptly titled 2003 follow-up, LSG2, includes only one featured guest: rapper Loon. The album peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard 200.
• LSG never officially disbanded, but Levert died in 2006. He was replaced with his father, Eddie.
