Rhythm & Lover is a soulful journey through longing, groove, and pure connection. Merging the heartbeat of Afro-fusion rhythms with the emotional weight of neo-soul and G-funk melodies, the project pays homage to legends like D’Angelo, Marvin Gaye, and October London, reimagined for today’s global soundscape.

Driven by warm percussion, raw basslines, and lush vocal harmonies, each track feels both timeless and current  a perfect soundtrack for late-night drives, dancefloor intimacy, and moments of reflection. With lyrics rooted in desire and vulnerability, Rhythm & Lover invites listeners to lose themselves in the groove and rediscover love through rhythm.

Rhythm & Lover

Летучй аспид в небесах парил,
Ему старались звери не переечить,
И близкой дружбы  с ним не заводили,
Он ненавидел тварей и калеечил.. 

A flying asp soared in the sky,
Animals tried not to cross him,
And they did not make close friends with him,
He hated creatures and maimed them..

АСПИД    /    ASP

Stroke of Genius

Didn't We

As the son of O’Jays frontman Eddie Levert, Gerald Levert was born into American soul royalty. He formed the R&B trio LeVert in 1984 while he was still attending high school in Shaker Heights, Ohio. The group – which also comprised his younger brother Sean and friend Marc Gordon – was among Atlantic Records’ top urban acts of the ‘80s and ‘90s, unleashing a succession of hits, among them the pop smash “Casanova.” Levert made his solo debut with 1991’s EastWest release, Private Line, featuring two R&B #1 hits in the title track and “Baby Hold On To Me,” a duet with his famous father. In 1994, he joined the Elektra family when Sylvia Rhone, who had been running Atlantic’s Atco/EastWest division, moved over to become head of the Elektra Entertainment Group – the first African-American woman to become chairman of a major label. Rhone brought with her many of the artists she had been nurturing at EastWest, including Levert.
In 1997, Levert co-founded LSG, an urban R&B supergroup also comprising Johnny Gill and Elektra labelmate Keith Sweat. Fueled by the #1 R&B/Hip-Hop hit, “My Body,” the trio’s Elektra/EastWest debut album, Levert. Sweat. Gill, made a top 5 Billboard 200 debut on its way to RIAA platinum certification.

Levert’s first Elektra release came with 1999’s G, an ambitious collection that included the R&B hit, “Mr. Too Damn Good.” Levert’s next three albums, including 2001’s Gerald’s World, 2002’s The G Spot, and 2003’s Stroke of Genius, made top 10 debuts on the Billboard 200 upon their respective releases, with the third set also hitting #1 on the R&B album chart.

With Elektra entering dormancy, Gerald returned to Atlantic in 2004 with Do I Speak For The World. On November 10, 2006, he passed away from acute intoxication caused by the accidental combination of prescription narcotics and over-the-counter drugs; he was 40 years old.

In 2007, Levert’s final solo album, In My Songs, debuted atop Billboard’s “Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums” chart while also entering the overall Billboard 200 at #2. The acclaimed album’s title track later earned Levert his first-ever Grammy for “Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance,” an award memorably accepted on his behalf by younger brother, Sean. Sadly, Sean Levert died shortly thereafter from complications related to sarcoidosis; he was 39.
