オージェイズ (The O'Jays) は、アメリカのオハイオ州で1958年に結成されたソウル・トリオ。
日本および世界では、72年ごろに初めて知られるようになるが、それ以前にニュージャージーで録音したり、苦節10年以上の年月があった。
フィラデルフィア・インターナショナルで「裏切り者のテーマ」が初のヒット曲となり、その後も「ラヴ・トレイン」などがクロスオーバー・ヒットとなった。
ソウル・チャートでは80年代後半になってもヒットを出すなど、息の長いトリオである。
リーダーのエディ・レヴァートの息子のジェラルド・レヴァートも「レヴァート」として86年からヒットを出し活躍していたが、2006年、父親よりも先に若くして亡くなってしまった。
