Whitehead Bros.

The Whitehead Bros. was an American R&B duo from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, made up of two brothers, Kenny Whitehead and the late John Whitehead Jr., who contributed hits such as "Your Love is a 187" from their 1994 Motown release, Serious. Their second single from the Serious LP, entitled "Forget I Was a G", also appeared in the Jason’s Lyric Soundtrack in addition to being synced in the film numerous times. Their music is still popular today and celebrated on a great scale internationally. They are sons of the late John Whitehead who penned multiple hits for The Gamble and Huff ‘Philly Sound’, as well as performing and co-writing with his partner Gene McFadden, the well known smash "Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now".

Kenny Whitehead remains active in the music business today as a singer/songwriter and producer.
