It's true-I've always loved the begging man especially I'll Give All My Love To You .

Keith Sweat is the man!!! If you want to talk about true R&B you can't forget Keith and beggin' self

My favorite, favorite is "There you go tellin' me no (again)"
and he tore it up on "How deep is your love"...he was preachin' on that one!!!

and "Something, something just ain't right"....

Loved Steve's ""Weak At The Knees" and your right Keith does sound like him .

who is he?

I liked his first album alot (especially the songs "Something Just Ain't Right","In The Rain" and "How Deep Is Your Love"),but I never bought anything else by him.His music is okay in small doses,lol.

That's why it was appropriate that Keith Sweat did a remake of Slave's "Just a Touch of Love" on his self-titled album.

When you look back at Sweat's career -- the bulk of his career is essentially in his first five albums -- he really had a strong set of songs. His first three albums in particular were between strong to spectacular.

an R&B singer who burst on the scene in 1987 with his hit single "I Want Her" and a hugely successful debut album 'Make It Last Forever'.

Keith Sweat is a Harlem-born soul singer/songwriter who dominated the genre from 1988 through 1996. His debut album, "Make It Last Forever," sold more than 3 million copies and his next four albums -- "I'll Give All My Love to You," "Keep It Comin,'" "Get Up On It" and his self-titled project -- were also million-sellers.

Sweat is credited for being one of the first breakthrough acts of the New Jack Swing subgenre of soul music. Think of acts like Bobby Brown, Al B. Sure! and GUY, with Sweat having more staying power than those acts.

"Twisted" was the jam also .

Yeah Keith Sweat is da man...but where the heck is he now??? Anyone?

I love me some Keith Sweat. Me and my friends at times poke jokes at him for whining a lot on some of his songs.

The King of Beggin Man's music ! That's Keith Sweat right there. Man I hate his whining on that song "Merry Go Round" He keeps crying "WHY U WANNA HURT ME BABY?" Over and over again.

I love Keith Sweat. The first CD is essential New Jack Swing. The next four were a little uneven, but there are a lot of great moments! His greatest hits CD was almost perfect, but some idiot decided not to include "Keep It Comin'," a #1 hit.

I love that song.

What about "why me" with ll cool j? Where he starts including his song titles into his begging adlibs


"theres a right and a wrong way to love baby.....i'll give all my love to u...."

I remember hearing his debut single "I Want Her" and the FIRST thing I thought was "Yeah! Steve Arrington's back!"

As soon as I read the thread title I knew the word "beg" would appear somewhere.

When someone mentions Keith Sweat's name, I always think of the scene in "New Jack City where he's singing "Merry Go Round".

I wonder whatever happened to "Silk" the group he produced? Their debut was good.

"baby its you" "freak me" "happy days" "girl u for me".....some good songs off silk's debut.

And you skipped the best one ("Lose Control"). They're still together, but Lil' G left the group.

AlexdeParis said:

i never knew "baby its u" was a single? I found the 12" quite recently. I need to find the album. I still got the video to "hapy days" somewhere?

thesexofit said:

I didn't know that either. I need to find my Silk cassette.

November said:

Goodnewjack song that one. The sweatshop remix is not essential, but its kinda cool

AlexdeParis said:

r u serious???!!

Lil' G.....wasn't he in "Madea's Family Reunion"?? The play, not the movie.

November said:

Keith Sweat performed "There You Go (Tellin' Me No)" in the wedding scene in "New Jack City."
