"Ready or Not" is a song performed by After 7, issued as the third single from the group's eponymous debut album. In 1989, the song became the first #1 R&B single for the group. It was also the group's first top ten pop single, peaking at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100. R&B singer Jazmine Sullivan's song "Let it Burn" heavily resembles the rhythm of this After 7 song since her single employs the sample.

"Ready or Not" was certified Gold by the RIAA on August 14, 1990.
