From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Meli'sa Morgan is a female African American R&B singer born in Queens New York who had a string of Urban contemporary and House music hits in the 1980's and 1990's.

Her initial chart entry was as the lead singer of the dance group Shades Of Love. They had a single entry on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in 1982, the #26 "Keep In Touch (Body To Body)."

As a solo artist she topped the R&B chart with a remake of Prince's "Do Me, Baby," which also became her only Billboard Hot 100 entry, peaking at #46 in 1986. She had several solo hits on the US dance chart as well, including "Still In Love With You," which hit #3 in 1992.
