I'm a grown arsed man. And I just broke down crying like a little kid at the 4:00 mark. And I never cry over ANYTHING. Sittin' here with my eyes swollen...smh. Between seeing this Father/Son exchange (never met mine...lol), Gerald's death and remembering my relationship heartbreaks over the years. It's potent and powerful! Strangely, this song soothes instead of depressing my soul! Much respect to these two legends. R.I.H. to both Levert sons. And thank you Eddie.

[@Papi.Pharaoh]

Undeniably one of the greatest duets to ever exist, and it came from a father and son who could honestly put a lot of these artists today to shame. No lip syncing just real authentic voices. If this song and performance doesn’t move you, then nothing will.
