Keith Sweat
It couldn’t get more smooth than Keith Sweat in the 90s. He debuted with the 1987 album Make it Last Forever under Elektra Records, was one of the first albums to showcase the New Jack Swing sound. It went three times platinum and produced a number of hit singles “I Want Her,” “Don’t Stop Your Love,” and “Something Just Ain’t Right.”
Sweat had the Midas effect on everything, except instead of gold everything he touched easily went platinum. From 1990 to 1998, he recorded six albums. I’ll Give All My Love To You went double platinum, Keep It Comin’ went platinum, Get Up On It, platinum, Keith Sweat, four times platinum, and Still In the Game, platinum. It wasn’t until the 2000s when his platinum reign began to falter. He released five albums since 2000, the last one being in 2011, to less praise and attention than his previous albums.
Sweat still records but in the meantime he has taken his talents on air, hosting a nationally syndicated radio show called The Keith Sweat Hotel since 2007.
