Posted On : April 14, 2017

For years we’ve been singing along to Keith Sweat’s “Make It Last Forever,” and every time it came on the radio we everybody was like ‘Awww, that’s my jam!’ but about 80% of us who loved the song, have never ever seen the female singer with the powerful voice who was singing with Keith.

So after one of our ILOSM family members asked us about the female singer on that song, we decided to do some diggin’ like we always do and we came up with some interesting info about singer, Jacci McGhee.

Now we can finally put a face to the beautiful voice on a song that that will forever be etched in the hearts of us 80’s R&B music lovers. Meet the woman who KILLED IT on “Make It Last Forever”…

Jacci started out as a background singer for Keith until he decided to push her to the forefront on their classic, “Make It Last Forever” and the rest is history…

She also sang the hook for Salt N’ Pepa’s hit song, “Expression.” Nowadays she still singing and she is also a life coach, actress and self proclaimed “wig lover/wig stylist/cosmetology graduate/lover of glamour!”
