Melvin Riley

Melvin Riley is a legendary R&B singer, songwriter, and producer best known as the lead vocalist of the iconic group Ready for the World. With his signature smooth falsetto and heartfelt delivery, Riley helped define the sound of 1980s R&B and continues to influence generations of artists today.

Rising to prominence in the mid-1980s, Riley and Ready for the World achieved major success with chart-topping hits like Oh Sheila, a multi-platinum single that crossed over into pop and dance charts, and fan favorites like Love You Down. His unique vocal style—often compared to that of Prince—helped set the group apart during a highly competitive era of R&B.
