Keith Douglas Sweat (born July 22, 1961) is an American singer and songwriter.

An early figure in the New Jack swing musical movement, he is known for his collection of hits including "I Want Her", "Make It Last Forever", "I'll Give All My Love to You", "Make You Sweat", "Get Up on It", "Twisted" and "Nobody".

He has released 13 solo albums (2 as a part of the R&B supergroup LSG) and discovered the groups Silk and Kut Klose.

Sweat was born in Harlem, New York City, to Juanita Thompson, a hairdresser, and Charles Crier, a factory worker.

1973

After Charles Crier's passing in 1973, Juanita raised their five kids by herself.

Before joining the entertainment industry, Sweat worked as a night stock worker at Macy's Department Store, and then a mail room clerk at Paine Webber, a brokerage firm.

Within just four years, he worked his way up to a lucrative brokerage assistant job on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange.

Sweat also worked as a supervisor for the New York Mercantile Exchange.

1975

Sweat started his musical career as a member of a Harlem band called Jamilah in 1975.

With the help of Jamilah, Sweat was able to hone his craft as a lead singer by performing regionally throughout the tri-State area of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.

The group was started by bassist Larry Peoples, guitarist Michael Samuels, and drummer Walter Bradley.

"Just A Touch" was a cover of the 1979 song "Just a Touch of Love" by Slave.
