This was from the 1992 NAACP Image Awards show. The Tempts, Tops, Dells, and O'Jays were inducted into the Image Hall of Fame that night with this tribute by Boyz II Men (who had won best new artist that night) & LeVert.

When you're watching and enjoying but then realize there's quite a few who have passed on ..makes it surreal.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and state that Eddie Levert was the proudest person in that auditorium that evening.........with Smokey Robinson a close second. This was an absolutely CLASSIC rendition of Philly Soul & Motown's finest "Old-School" hits. I've never seen this video until now........it's made my "favorite" list.

Damn, we wouldn't even be able to do this today. R&B groups have died out. This was such an awesome performance!

You can see the love Eddie had for his boys (priceless)

Never heard Sean sing lead. He sounded great!

Man! Gerald sounded just like his pops

This was 23 years ago. Shit! Dope as hell too.

Gerald did a great job singing his dad's songs. And Shawn was jamming

Now THAT's how put on a show, paying respect the legends.

RIP Gerald & Sean Levert.

I'm happy that Eddie received a tribute from his sons.

The tributes were awesome back then. They pay respect to the ones that paved the way for them.

So sad that BOTH Levert brothers only lived to see 40. May they both RIP

LEVERT'S TRIBUTE TO THE O'JAYS WAS MOST FITTING!

They ALL killed it 🔥 RIP to Sean and Gerald Levert and the others.

In this video u realize how important the bass is right Boys to Men.

They did every song justice ... and I loved that the legends were in the audience giving them love for the love!

OMG THIS IS THE BEST TRIBUTE IVE EVERRRRR SEEN!!!!! I WAS SCREAMING THE WHOLE PERFORMANCE!!!! I DONT KNOW IF I WAS SCREAMING MORE FOR THE ELDERS JUMPING UP AND DANCING AND GIVING THEM SUPPORT OR LEVERT AND BIIM KILLING IT ON STAGE!!!!!!!!!! I NEVER KNEW LEVERT AND BIIM PERFORMED TOGETHER!!!! THEY WERE AMAAAAAZING TOGETHER!!!!

The 'New Jacks' paying homage to the Pioneers. Beautiful.

that damn Gerald was a monster out there

The mini tambourines 😂😂😂 Man the music, the awards shows, the performances just ain't the same

LOve how Melvin jumped up on his jammmmmmmmmmm.

i have no words! there are sooo many legends in one house. Timeless! Vintage! Classic!

By far the greatest performance ever assembled by two great singing groups who didn't try to upstage each other but helped elevate one another to the next level!

yes. the four tops in the audience. the greatest.

They worked so well together & the harmonies were sooooo sweet!!

This is how to do a tribute!

great performance. rest in peace Gerald and sean :(

When we used to do things together and actually put thought and effort into the performances.

Luv Levert and Boyz II Men.

Excellent, excellent, excellent! They really looked like they were having fun! I noticed the excitement of the audience especially when Gerald Levert sang!

I did some digging and I believe this is from the 24th Annual Image Awards in 1992. Love this! Today's performers need to pay attention because this is what we are lacking today.

what a wonderful tribute to music from a bygone area. Fortunately, we have KZfaq to relive it for as many times as we want.

What a fabulous tribute to some of Motown's greatest acts. Boyz II Men and Levert did their predecessors proud - their harmonies were spot on. The "singing" apple didn't fall far from the tree in the Levert boys: they sound so much like their father, Eddie, who is an exceptional vocalist. Too sad that Eddie lost both his two sons at age 40 (Sean 39).

I miss talent & shows like this..R.I.P. Gerald, Sean Levi & Natalie 🙏🙏 ❤️❤️❤️

the year this performance was done there still was respect in the music industry

Wow ! There are a lot of greats that we in this video that are no longer with us. Members of the Four Tops, Levert, and Natalie Cole. RIP !

Now this is how a real MOTOWN tribute and SOUND Looks like👀👀👀👀👀#ShameOnYouGrammys

I am honored to have known Gerald and Sean they were to good guys gone to soon May they be at rest in the Lord God bless!

omg so many great faces..r.i.p to all those who are not with us anymore..music was so great back then..oh my...lots of love

They Killed this! Watching All the OG’s enjoy this tribute was dope. And shoutout to the amazing Patrice Rushen conducting orchestra

this is so fun to watch

yessss. the four tops in the audience. the greatest.

Literally no lip singing. Wow🌹

I have watched this excellent so many times and I'll never get tired. So sad , ALL the beautiful voices on the stage and some in the audience, , like Ms. NATALIE COLE, GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN REAL MUSIC, REAL VOICES AND REAL INSTRUMENTS. REAL TALENT. REST IN PEACE GUYS.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 R.I.P Gerald & Sean LeVert

Incredible, incredible performances. I loved it. my only downfall is......"I wish i was there instead of seeing it on a computer screen"!!!!!!!!

groups don't come together like this no more. excellent performance that made people happy and enjoy.

Even now, the pride in Eddie's face... priceless!

I think that Boyz II Men gave a showing of just how good they really were during this performance, individually and as a group. All together this was quite a wonderful and spectacular performance.

damn they don't make music like this anymore. I'm 29 and consider myself an 'old soul' when it comes to music. Bring back music that had meaning, expressed love and came from the soul. Great music like this became extinct a long time ago. RIP Teddy Bear and Eddie LeVert

I'm STILL a ride or die BoyzIIMen addict! I saw them in concert a few months ago and it was like being transported back to the 90s.

I remember this one. Great harmonies between these two groups. It's so sad that Gerald & Sean are gone. R.I.P. Levert Brothers.

if only they wrote songs like this still.

Michael mccleary in the spotlight singing...wow..never saw that before! he can sing

this was a memorable tribute...I love the four tops...the dells the ojays and temptations.....llavert and Boyz 2 men did a marvellous job ...I give hats of to the 4 tops...temptations the dells the mighty ojays the 4 tops over the years I listened and grew up on everyone of these groups..omg...I understand why they call the ojays ....the mighty mighty ojays ....wow!!!!!👍👌.....keep on making music ...I'm 55 year old african American woman born in the early 60's and I'm happy and proud to say I grew up listening to these legends...I'm glad I can google my old time legend groups....I love you guys......

Thanks to KZfaq I can enjoy THIS !!!

the break down on for the love of money lights my heart up

Great performance indeed!

Is that Patrice Rushen directing the music? What a legend she is.

Time to bring this soul back! Music nowadays is crap. This made you move!

2019 and this is still one of the best performers ever great voices

killer show.. which Gerald n Sean had lived on till today, they made good music.. power to theB2M

I'm watching this in 2019 and it is off the chain!! I love everything about it!! R.I.P to the Levert brothers!!

Gerald always brings that grown ass man energy

No matter how good Wanya believes he is, no matter how many screams he gets. When Michael went into his solo and the ladies heard that bass voice,panties started bursting instantly

Thanks for posting this. Now this is a tribute.

SO NICE.....NEVER SAW THE SHOW BEFORE

Black people we need to revive this music❤

This just makes me so happy. Watching it for the second day in a row just because it makes me so happy.

Gerald and Sean RIP

That was fantastic!

hehe, when Michael started singing the ladies loved it :D

And this is how you do a tribute! Beautiful job! Such talented men!

I Wish there Was a Love Button on Here 💖💖💖💖

The crowd had tambourines👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿Now everyone has iPhones 🥺🥺🥺

Wowwww great show guys

They everybody dancing and smiling one of a kind i love this type of music so i grow up with it❤

Fantastic performance!!! REST IN PARADISE GERALD LEVERT!!!

I don’t watch awards shows anymore like I use to. They definitely don’t pay homage like this anymore. I’m so glad I grew up to this. Today’s artist wish they had someone singing from their catalog of hits. R.I.P. to all the legends they showed.

That was the best tribute preformance I have ever seen in my life! I love the songs that they preformed they preformed them just as the orginal artist would have To see Eddie's reaction to his sons preforming was priceless This looks like they were preforming at the NAACP Image awards, where ever they were preforming they were great, and these young artist need to take note, that this is how you sing and dance at the sametime! I love both groups and may Sean and Gerald both Rest In Peace!

Moments when you can say.. Thank G-d for KZfaq!

Encore Encore!!!!!

one damn good performance by all participants, i wish i were there to be a part of the energy in the building that night. i love both groups. God bless those that are still around to celebrate life and music. for all those that we have lost god keep them in his arms safe and sound. may their souls rest peacefully till he call us all! god bless all who read this also!

This video brings me so much joy. ☺️

If you've never seen The Four Tops and The Temptations perform, this is about as good as its going to get. I LOVED IT... PRECIOUS MEMORIES... 1983 at the Front Row in CLEVELAND, OHIO❤❤❤❤

I've got a big smile on my face right now! They make me proud everytime I watch this! ♡PEACE

The guy from boy to men did his thing Michael u sound good singing that part of song he has a different tone to his voice love it

That Levert was amazing.

Boyz II Men repped well, and so did LeVert

I doubt very seriously much of today's music will be honored in this fashion

This is old school, but still awesome!!...

You are absolutely right "THE BEST" SO GLAD TO HAVE FOUND THIS, LOVE IT!!!!!! OLD SKOOL YALL!!!! THOSE WERE GREAT TIMES & MUSIC TIMELESS.

You can tell they had so much fun putting this tribute performance together. Isn't it sad we don't have any male singing groups in this new generation? I'll keep playing the classics

This can go down as one the greatest tributes of all time

This was an awesome tribute

That took me back when I was really making memories! young and fine love it!!!!!

What a display of talent! !! They are sick!!!!! I enjoy it everyday .

Didn’t know Shawn Levert could sing like that
