The group Ready for the World ascended upon the music scene in the mid-eighties. Their debut album entitled Ready For The World was released in 1985 on MCA records. There were a total of 5 single releases off the debut album with the song entitled Oh Sheila charting to No#1 on four different charts all within the same week.
This feat of being no# 1 on the R&B, Pop, Dance, and Video Billboard charts earned the group a place in the Guinness Book of World Records. Oh Sheila also earned Gold status as a single and helped propel the group to Platinum status with 1.7 million albums sold to date. The second album released in 1986 entitled, Long Time Coming proved that the group was not fluke.
The hit single, Let me Love you Down climb to No# 1 on the R&B charts and leveled at No# 9 on the Pop charts.
The album entitled “Straight Down to Business”, in 1991, was their only release during the 90s. The group continued to record and work in different capacities within the music indusrty as writers, producers, studio sound engineers and video producers. After a hiatus from the music scene, the band is moving forward with live shows, new projects both collectively & individually and of featured artist soon to be introduced to the world.
