Mess around with the settings on the amp. If he is singing through a guitar amp turn everything down and then you can proboably mess around with the reverb as much as you want. Try turning the mic in a different direction too. Maybe pull it farther away from the mic.

Use a low gain in the mic channel input and raise the master volume to the highest setting you can before it feeds back. Using gain to increase volume will also increase feedback, as it widens the mics dynamics range.

It's about positioning. And remember to not cup your hand over it.
