♫ THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW ♫
Check out the Midi Mafia-produced new track “Quickly” from John Legend and Brandy. I’m already a fan of Brandy’s vocals, and I’m really digging John Legend’s new material from his upcoming third studio album, Evolver, which is due out October 28th. Their tones match really well together. I definitely think that this should be a single from Legend’s new set. This record really is amazing.

JOHN LEGEND AND T.I. DOES A MUSICAL TIC FOR TAC…
T.I. and John Legend decided to swap it out — Legend appears on Tip’s “Slide Show” from Paper Trail, and the King of the South recently completed a remix of the crooner’s current big single. “T.I. did a remix for me for ‘Green Light,’ with Swizz Beatz on the production,” Legend told MTV News. “That was fresh. That’ll be coming up soon. I switched up my lyrics a little bit to ride the beat in a different way. The beat is slower, a little more R&am
So what you’re saying is…..
Let me get this out of the way. I like John Legend and his music. I might be one of the few who doesn’t think that he is gay (or ghey, as the ex puts it, hee hee), nor do I care. But for some strange reason, John Legend “sort of” dodges the question and puts the bloggers on blast.
AHHA: Regarding the blogs – they definitely are hard on you when it comes to the gay rumors. Do you care to address it? Does it bother you?
John Legend: [laughs] No. Blogs, their job is too talk sh*t everyday

I actually just wanted justification to post the wifey’s performance on Oprah. Any Superwomen still out there? I heard they went on the Endangered Species list (I’m sure no woman will attest to that though, they’re allll special lol). Consider this the Superwoman Roll Call.. hit the jump for your present because we might have to Pop Champagne.. lets hope the comments don’t dictate their level of extinction. I’m giving you guys the benefit of the doubt!

You can visit his new spot, www.thinkcommon.com. Now it’s only a matter of time before he starts dropping off daily verses. If rappers are starting to blog now, where does that leave bloggers? I can’t rap for shit, so I’ll be hot damned if I let a rapper take my spot.

This Evolver bonus track track starts out with the word “Legend.” When it’s all said and done, I wonder which of these artists will go down with that title.
