Levert’s Rarely Seen Youngest Child Gave Emotional Tribute On Anniversary Of His Death
November 10, 2018, marked the 12th anniversary of R&B legend, Gerald Levert’s, untimely passing in 2006. He was 40 years old and was survived by 3 wonderful children. Out of his three kids, there is one whom many never knew about. You see, for several years, fans were aware that Gerald had a son, LeMicah- who is damn near his twin- and also a daughter, Carlysia, who was oftentimes seen with him at public events. The reason for that is because for a while, they were the only two children who existed.
Then came their lil’ sis, Camryn, but the details about her and her Mother were sketchy for many years. But y’all already know that here, at ILOSM, we pride ourselves on being TRUTH diggers. So after extensively diggin’ for the truth about who Camryn is and where she came from, we came up with a bit of gold. Matter of fact, we’re pleasantly surprised by the truths we uncovered about this young lady.
Camryn (20) has just shared with I LOVE OLD SCHOOL MUSIC, her beautiful tribute to her father, for the 12th anniversary of his passing. Oh…did we forget to mention that Camryn Levert can sing like her daddy and is doing a helluva job following in his footsteps? In addition to those facts, we also uncovered other facts about her and her rarely seen mother.
Camyrn Levert’s Emotional Song Tribute To Dad, Gerald
Camryn was just 8 years old when her father passed away, but the short time they had together impacted her greatly and understandably so. As a singer/songwriter, she decided to honor her Pops in a very touching way- by creating a beautiful song to him, titled “Miss You.” It’s her latest single and as you watch the visual of Camryn and Gerald Levert in the video, you just might get a lil’ misty eyed. Check it out below:
Meet Her Mother
Camryn is biracial- Her Mom is Caucasian and as we all know, her Dad is African American. It’s unclear if Gerald was still with her mother at the time of his passing, but they all have memorable moments together. Camyrn’s mother still prefers to stay outta the spotlight, but below is a throwback pic of younger Camryn with her parents…
Camryn Levert’s Best Memories About Her Dad
We asked Camryn what some of her most amazing memories with her father are and she let us know that there are PLENTY:
“Some things I remember about my dad was his infectious amazing smile and super silly funny laugh. He had a great big heart and would help anyone. When I was little he would pick me up and whisper secrets in my ear. He would always give me surprises and little gifts when I would be at his house. I always loved going to his house because the scenery was beautiful! He had a big beautiful house with an in door pool and he always had fun family gatherings. He had a great basement filled with arcade machines and a movie theater. I have some great memories spending time with him at his house 💘”

In an interview with I LOVE OLD SCHOOL MUSIC, Gerald’s 28 year old daughter, Carlysia Levert [pictured above left, with sis, Camryn (R)], explained that her father, Gerald, had to always split his time between his demanding schedule, his fans, and his family. Even though she understands his dedication to his fans and his craft now as an adult, Carlysia admits she wasn’t feelin’ it as a young child. Therefore, she cherished every moment she got alone with their dad:
“Any time I had alone with my dad was a beautiful memory. He was always trying to lose weight. So I remember one day we were gonna work out and it was just me and him and he had on this plastic garbage back for the workout. Then we went swimming…any memory where it’s just me and him or where I felt like it was just me and him, was beautiful.”
As for their big brother, LeMicah, he too, misses his Father and does his part to honor him everyday.
May Gerald Levert continue to rest in power.
