The Staple Singers were an American gospel, soul and R&B singing group. Roebuck Pops Staples, the patriarch of the family, formed the group with his children Cleotha, Pervis, Yvonne, and Mavis. They are best known for their 1970s hits Respect Yourself, I'll Take You There, If You're Ready, and Let's Do It Again, all of which peaked on the Hot 100 less than a week away from Christmas Day.
While the family surname is Staples, the group used the singular form for its name, The Staple Singers.
