John Legend获得过8项格莱美奖提名，并获得其中的三个奖项。这是他最新发行的专辑 "Once Again"， 首波主打单曲“Save Room”感觉比较像摇滚多过R&B风格的歌曲“Heaven”是第二首EP单曲。

美国新灵魂乐歌手John Legend原名John Stephens，“John Legend”这个名字只是儿时朋友们送的绰号。John Legend出生在美国俄亥俄州的Springfield，家庭的音乐氛围对于John Legend日后走向音乐方面产生了重要的作用。John Legend的家里有一台钢琴，John Legend从五岁的时候开始就利用这台钢琴学着练习弹奏歌曲，到了他八九岁的时候就已经开始在当地的一些教堂里为教堂唱诗班弹钢琴伴奏了，通过奶奶教授给他的一些福音音乐歌曲，不久之后John Legend已经开始独立的演奏歌曲了，到了高中的时候，John Legend已经开始录制一些小型唱片了。John Legend后来开始听一些Jodeci，Boyz II Men，LL Cool J的音乐，这些音乐对于他后来的个人音乐风格也产生了一定的影响。16岁以后，John Legend离开了家乡来到了宾夕法尼亚大学主修英文专业，在这里除了学习之外他依然活跃于音乐场合，他经常在学校的一些才艺演出上表演，在费城外的Bethel A.M.E.教堂他已经成为了教堂唱诗班的导演，直到他发片前的几个月，他在这所教堂担任唱诗班导演长达九年。

强将手下无弱兵。美国新灵魂乐歌手兼钢琴演奏家John Legend的这张专辑在金牌制作人Kanye West的锻造下，商业成绩已经明显的高于其他众多的新人灵魂乐歌手，经过了此前在众多明星专辑中的亮相预热，John Legend的这张专辑终于出笼，在发行首周销量达到了11万6千张，成功的名列排行榜的第七位，作为一名新人来讲已经是非常得不错了。

Wake Up Everybody is an album released by Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes on the Philadelphia International record label in November 1975. It was produced by Kenneth Gamble & Leon Huff. This would be the last album to include Teddy Pendergrass before he left the group for a solo career.
The album features the hit singles "Wake Up Everybody" and "Tell the World How I Feel About 'Cha Baby". "Don't Leave Me This Way", which would be reinterpreted two years later by Thelma Houston, was a hit on the UK Singles Chart, peaking at #5. The lead vocal on the closing album track, "Searching for a Love", was performed virtually solo by Sharon Paige, who also performed duet duties with Pendergrass and Melvin on the song "You Know How to Make Me Feel So Good."
The album was remastered and reissued with a bonus track, a Tom Moulton remixed version of "Don't Leave Me This Way", in 2008 by Legacy Recordings.

Compared to their past material, this album lacks the consistent mix of sultry ballads and funky dance numbers. There are really only two Isley Brothers' classics on this project: "Choosey Lover" and the title song "Between the Sheets." The former has a romantic flow and the latter is just shy of mid-tempo but not a bona fide ballad. When one thinks of a quiet thundering storm, this song's bassline comes to mind. As soothing as it is, it also has that trembling affect. It fell short of number one peaking at three on the Billboard R&B charts. "Choosey Lover" has that charismatic appeal.
After scores and scores of recording sessions, Ronald Isley's vocals maintain that zeal. It was becoming obvious that the group continuity was fading. Not so much from dissension within the group, but more so from dwindling interest in the music industry among group members, this was the group's last album as 3 + 3. Marvin and Ernie Isley and their brother in-law Chris Jasper would release an album the following year as Isley Jasper Isley.

Marvin Gaye 把 1971 年专辑《What’s Going On》的标题曲拿给摩城音乐创始人 Berry Gordy 时，据传后者曾表示，那是他听过的最糟糕的东西。音乐太松散，歌词则太政治化。但就连 Elvis Presley 都唱起了抗议歌曲（1969 年的《In the Ghetto》），Marvin Gaye 为什么不可以？<br /><br />
这张专辑的奥妙就在于那份轻盈。歌曲自在呼吸，演绎自然松弛，甚至有些漫不经心，例如标题曲中负责演奏萨克斯的 Eli Fontaine 录音时甚至以为自己不过是在热身。Sly & The Family Stone 在苦涩的放克里倾泻怒火的同时（1971 年的《There’s a Riot Goin’ On》），Gaye 则用华丽的弦乐和拉丁鼓点表达着他的不满，柔和而且显得老练。哪怕是触及毒品（《Flyin’ High [In the Friendly Sky]》）和贫困问题（《Inner City Blues [Make Me Wanna Holler]》）等严肃主题时，他也轻盈得如同御风而行。这张专辑让我们明白，政治音乐不一定要剑拔弩张，也可以温暖怡人。
