Leonard Pitts, Jr., Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and author ofBecoming Dad: Black Men and the Journey to Fatherhood "Eddie Levert is an American icon. Gerald Levert is the most talented soul-singer of my generation. With ingredients like these, anything they create together is delicious! This book is a tasty testimonial to the power of love." Tavis Smiley, host of The Tavis Smiley Show,New York Timesbestselling author ofWhat I Know for Sure, and editor of theNew York TimesbestsellersThe Covenant with Black AmericaandThe Covenant in Action "I GOT YOUR BACK celebrates black men and the deep relationship that Eddie and Gerald Levert share as father and son. For generations they have inspired us with the power of their Love Train especially for me as I reflect on my relationship with my grandfathers and father."Hill Harper, actor andNew York Timesbestselling author ofLetters to a Young Brother: MANifest Your Destiny "Eddie Levert is one of the great figures in American popular music and Gerald Levert is the greatest soul singer of his generation. Both exemplify the height of grace dignity and integrity as self-respecting black men. I GOT YOUR BACK is their powerful and poignant gift to us a life enhancing message we so badly need in these difficult days! I thank Lyah Beth LeFlore for her help in laying bear the wisdom of these two geniuses!" Dr. Cornel West,New York Timesbestselling author ofDemocracy Mattersand University Professor of Religion, Princeton University "I got my start in R&B music with Gamble and Huff's O'Jays so Eddie Levert will always be important to me.

To see a father and his son make indelible marks on music over many years is very, very special."Clive Davis, founder of Arista Records and J Records, Grammy Award winning record producer, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Chairman and CEO of BMG North America "Eddie and Gerald Levert are musical nepotism at its best.

"As a member of the legendary singing group, The O'Jays, Eddie Levert's brand of silky soul is the reason some of us are here. Gerald Levert has continued to keep the baby-making songs alive. With I Got Your Back, these talented men show us another side; the beautiful bond between father and son."Mo'nique, actress, comedienne andNew York TimesBestselling author ofSkinny Women are Evil, "I Got Your Backis their powerful and poignant gift to us-a life-enhancing message we so badly need in these difficult days!" -Dr. Cornel West,New York Timesbestselling author ofDemocracy Matters "When I think of Gerald and Eddie together, I had never seen anything like that in my whole life-seeing a father and son work together, seeing a son look up to his dad, and the type of success they had.
