John Legend & The Roots Ready For Sept 21st.....
John Legend and hip-hop band The Roots have teamed up to record a jazzy, eclectic use of live instruments for their new album Titled "Wake Up". The album which contains mainly remakes of Donny Hathaway, covers of Marvin Gaye and one original song, takes on social and political issues surrounding our world. When asked about the album John Legend tells 'People':
"It says it all in the title," John Legend says. "It's saying we can't depend on the older generation to fix everything for us; we gotta educate ourselves, empower ourselves and use the power that we have to make the world better." Check them out performing "Wake Up Everybody" Which features Common and Melanie Fiona on the album...
