British-Nigerian singer and songwriter Talay Riley has died at the age of 35 following a stabbing incident in East London, United Kingdom.

The singer, whose real name is Yinka Mark Orabiyi, reportedly died on June 5, 2026, after being attacked with a knife.

According to police reports, officers responded to emergency calls regarding a stabbing on Pankhurst Avenue. Emergency services later found the victim with multiple stab wounds in the garden of a property on Rayleigh Road.

Despite efforts by paramedics to save his life, he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Another man in his 20s was also injured in the incident and was taken to hospital with multiple stab wounds. He is currently receiving treatment for injuries that are not considered life-threatening.

The Metropolitan Police said two men aged 27 and 24, along with a 25-year-old woman, were arrested near the scene on suspicion of murder. However, the 24-year-old man and the woman have since been released with no further action, while the 27-year-old suspect has been released on bail pending further investigations.

Homicide detectives from the Specialist Crime Command have launched a full investigation into the circumstances surrounding the attack and have appealed for witnesses who may have been in the area at the time to come forward.

Talay Riley was known in the music industry for his songwriting contributions, having worked with several international stars including Dua Lipa, Usher, Craig David, Chris Brown, Nick Jonas, and Britney Spears.

Tributes have continued to pour in from family, friends, and colleagues.

In a statement, his family described him as “a beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend” who brought “love, light, and joy” to those around him.

His brother, songwriter Scribz Riley (Michael Orabiyi Riley), paid an emotional tribute, describing him as a mentor and inspiration, and expressing shock at his sudden death.

Industry figures including Stormzy, Craig David, Kehlani, Khalid, and Chip also shared condolences, celebrating his talent, kindness, and legacy in music.
