John Legend Announces New Double Album He Says Is Worthy of His Last Name
John Legend has announced that his new — sorta — self-titled double album Legend will arrive next month.
“Until this point, I’ve never used an aspect of my name as the title of an album,” Legend said of Legend in a statement. “I had to earn that, to live up to it by delivering in the performance and the music. And this is me saying, I’m proud of who I am, I’m confident in the work I’ve done, and I’m just going to declare it.”
