Subject: Sean Levert Dies (of Levert, 80's trio)

Written By: KKay on 04/07/08 at 7:00 am

Singer Sean Levert, a third of the 1980s R&B trio LeVert and son of lead O'Jays singer Eddie Levert, has died after falling ill while serving a jail term. He was 39.  Authorities said Monday an autopsy was inconclusive but foul play was ruled out.
His brother, Gerald Levert, who had success as a solo artist after leaving their trio, died in 2006 at age 40 of an accidental mix of prescription and over-the-counter drugs.
The brothers had formed LeVert in the 1980s with childhood friend Marc Gordon. Their hits included "Baby I'm Ready," "(Pop, Pop, Pop, Pop) Goes My Mind" and "Casanova."
"Casanova" was nominated for a Grammy in 1988 for best R&B performance by a duo or group with vocal. It was also nominated for best R&B song.


I liked that song.
Too young to die; and a tragic family story.

First Gerald Levert, and now his little brother Sean.  Oh my God, it seems like the whole group died.  That's a shame.  Levert was a blast in the 80s.

Oh my Gosh. I could cry. I loved Levert so much. Casanova is my jam. It is truly sad to hear that Sean died.  :(

This is devastating to the family to lose two sons in less than a year. Their mother and Gerald Levert from the O'Jays are in so much pain right now. Rest in Peace
