popmag000723-biggerlove

EGOT-winner John Legend has released his sixth studio album, entitled “Bigger Love”. According to Legend, the 16-track record is a reminder that love wins and that the human spirit is capable of great joy, hope, and resilience, even in these difficult times. “Bigger Love” showcases Legend’s signature vocals, piano-filled arrangements, and heart-driven love ballads. His impressive range is on full display and listeners are treated to swelling falsettos and soft, sincere melodies. The album-opener, “Ooh Laa” is wonderfully charismatic and an easy rocker. Memorable too are the mesmerizing vocals of featured artist Jhene Aiko on the soulful “U Move, I Move”, the Afro-Caribbean rhythms of “Don’t Walk Away” featuring rising reggae star Koffee, and the nostalgic rap verses by Rapsody on “Remember Us”. The album-closer, “Never Break”, is an emphatic hymn of strength to fuel any triumph, which demonstrates why John Legend is simply legendary. For more info go to johnlegend.com
