Description

Melvin Edmonds, a founding member of the Grammy-nominated R&B group After 7 and an older brother of singer-songwriter-producer Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds, died Saturday at the age of 65.

According to USA Today, the singer’s death came after a short illness. He was the second oldest of six sons–Marvin Jr., Melvin, Michael, Kevon, Kenny and Derek–born in Indianapolis, Indiana, to Marvin Edmonds Sr. and Barbara Edmonds.
