Jermaine Jackson

Jermaine Jackson is an American singer and songwriter, one of the original members of The Jackson 5 alongside his brothers, including Michael Jackson. Within the group he sang second lead vocals behind Michael, and he later pursued a long-running solo career spanning pop, R&B and funk.

As a solo artist Jermaine built a catalog of smooth, melodic R&B and pop recordings, including hits like «Let's Get Serious», «Daddy's Home», «Do What You Do» and «When the Rain Begins to Fall», a duet with Pia Zadora. His voice and songwriting sit comfortably alongside the classic Motown and post-Motown R&B tradition that shaped his family's sound, while also embracing more contemporary pop and dance elements over the course of his career.

As a member of one of the most influential families in popular music, Jermaine occupies a distinctive place in R&B and pop history, bridging the Jackson 5's Motown-era harmonies with his own solo evolution. His collaborations and family ties, particularly with Michael and Janet Jackson, remain a defining part of his legacy alongside his individual recordings.
