The O'Jays are a popular and influential American soul group who helped define what is known as Philadelphia Soul.
Originally known as "The Triumphs" and "The Mascots" before taking on their name, the O'Jays scored their first Billboard Top 10 hit with "Back Stabbers" in 1972. Their next single, "Love Train" hit #1 the following year.
The 1970s would prove to be the pinnacle of the group's chart life, as they enjoyed a string of Top 40 hits like "Put Your Hands Together," "I Love Music," "Livin' for the Weekend" and "For the Love of Money," which is the theme song for the NBC reality show The Apprentice.
The group continues to record and perform. Their last album, Imagination, was released in 2004.
