Corey Glover (born November 6, 1964 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American musician. He is best known as the lead singer of the U.S. rock band, Living Colour.

After Living Colour's split in 1994, he started a solo career as Reverend Daddy Love and is lead vocalist for his band VICE with Mike Ciro.
Living Colour reunited in 2001 at CBGB's while playing with Will Calhoun and Doug Wimbish's live drum 'n' bass duo, HEADFAKE, Vernon Reid joined them three songs into the HEADFAKE setlist and Living Colour was back again. Glover is once again singing lead vocal with them.
