After 7 is a contemporary R&B group that first rose to fame in the late 1980s with their smooth harmonies and soulful ballads. Originally comprising brothers Kevon and Melvin Edmonds along with their friend Keith Mitchell, they were later joined by Jason Edmonds, son of Melvin. The group was formed in Indianapolis, Indiana, and quickly made their mark in the music industry with their self-titled debut album released in 1989 under Virgin Records. This album produced hits such as “Can't Stop” and “Ready or Not,” which showcased their romantic lyrics and vocal prowess, earning them critical acclaim and a solid fan base.
Following their early success, After 7 continued to release a string of albums throughout the 1990s and took a hiatus in the early 2000s. They made a notable return to the spotlight with their 2016 album, "Timeless," from which tracks like "Let Me Know" and "I Want You" remind listeners of their enduring talent and relevance in the ever-evolving R&B scene. Known for their emotional delivery and rich, harmonious sound, After 7 has managed to remain a beloved act over the decades, successfully maintaining their original essence while also adapting to contemporary music styles. Their 2021 album "Unfinished Business," which features modern hits including "Bittersweet" and "No Place Like You," exemplifies their commitment to their craft and their ability to create music that resonates across generations.
