The O'Jays are a Philadelphia soul group, originally consisting of Walter Williams , Bill Isles, Jerome Pierson, Bobby Massey, William Powell and Eddie Levert.

The O'Jays (now a trio) had their first hit with "Lonely Drifter" in 1963. In spite of its success, the group was considering quitting the music business until Gamble & Huff, a legendary team of producers and songwriters, took an interest in the group. With Gamble & Huff, the O'Jays emerged at the forefront of Philadelphia soul with Back Stabbers (1972), a huge pop hit.

The O'Jays formed the group in Canton, Ohio in 1958 while attending high school. The friends began recording in 1961.

They took the name "the O'Jays", in tribute to radio disc jockey Eddie O'Jay.

In 1972, they finally scored with their first million-seller, "Back Stabbers", from the gold album of the same name. This album also produced several more hit singles, including "Sunshine" & the #1 Pop smash, "Love Train".

During the remainder of the 1970s, the O'Jays continued releasing chart-topping singles, including "For the Love of Money" , "Let Me Make Love To You" & "I Love Music".

Original member William Powell died of cancer in 1977.

1978's "Use ta Be My Girl" was their final Top Five hit.

Later in the 90s, the group did little recording, though they remained a popular live draw.

The O'Jays were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2004 and The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005.

"For the Love Of Money" is the theme song to the hit reality TV show The Apprentice, which is ironic considering that the lyrics warn of the evil people will do for the love of money.
