Sources confirmed to The BV Newswire that Gerald Levert is dead of an apparent heart attack.

Immediate details on the death of the beloved R&B crooner were not known at press time.

He turned 40 years old in July.

One of several from the musical Levert family --his father, Eddie Levert, is the lead singer of the legendary soul group The O'Jays -- he was a founding member and the lead singer of the 1990's R&B trio LeVert, who scored big hits with "Pop, Pop, Pop, Pop (Goes My Mind)", "Casanova", and "ABC-123."

Levert, born in Cleveland, Ohio, was also apart of R&B supergroup LSG, comprised of platinum selling R&B crooners Keith Sweat and Johnny Gill.

I must confess I was not familiar with him but I believe that his death was covered on This Week with George Stenopolis that past Sunday. He seemed so young at only 40. Very sad.
