Mischke Butler is an American singer, songwriter, vocal producer, vocal coach and vocal arranger, best known for his work with Michael Jackson, Spice Girls, Keke Palmer, and Little Mix. Butler, raised in Detroit, appeared as a singer in 1994 television film Madonna: Innocence Lost, and released his debut single "Ready Fa Luv" in 1996, nominated for Best R&B/Soul video at the Canadian Much Music Video Awards.[3][4] Butler was subsequently discovered by producer Rodney Jerkins, who would mentor him for several years.[5] Originally a member of Jerkins' "camp" of lyric and melody writers, he soon began to branch out into vocal arrangements and production.[6] His contributions to El DeBarge's 2010 album Second Chance earned him a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Song.[7][8][9][10]
