If you’re even vaguely familiar with R&B, you’re certainly aware that Keith Sweat is one of its most soulful—and most successful—singers. In a “hit today, gone tomorrow” industry, Sweat’s signature sound of warm, supple grooves and passionate, silky-smooth vocals is built to last. Over the course of his 16-year career, he’s not only survived, he’s thrived, selling more than 14 million records, while garnering five #1 R&B albums, 15 Top 10 R&B singles, six #1 hits, four Top 5 pop singles, three multiplatinum and three platinum albums, two platinum and three gold singles, widespread critical acclaim and a rabid international following. The Harlem-born college grad’s smooth transition from Wall Street brokerage assistant to R&B heartthrob was almost as fluid as his signature style of music. In fact, it’s likely that Sweat, who debuted in the late ’80s, single-handedly and ever-so-eloquently merged the “please, baby, baby, please” style that dominated ’60s R&B with the rhythmic moaning made famous by Steve Arrington, front man for ’70s R&B group Slave. His 1987 debut, Make It Last Forever, was the sexy backdrop to the short-lived yet monumental New Jack era. Remarkably, the quadruple-platinum album still scans at least 800 copies a week. His astonishing run of chart-topping discs continued with subsequent releases I’ll Give All My Love To You, Keep It Comin’, Get Up On It and Keith Sweat, and he continues to record hit music to this day.
