After 7 is an American R&B vocal group founded in 1987 by brothers Melvin and Kevon Edmonds and Keith Mitchell. Jason Edmonds, son of Melvin Edmonds, joined later. The Edmonds brothers are the older siblings of singer/songwriter/producer/musician Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds. Mitchell was thought to be the cousin of Babyface’s then songwriting partner Antonio “LA” Reid; however, this was set up as a marketing tool for the group and was incorrect. Melvin Edmonds died on May 18, 2019, at the age of 65. Jason left the group shortly thereafter. After 7 now consist of Kevon Edmonds, Keith Mitchell and Danny McClain.
