In 2004, I fell completely in love with the sultry sound of John Legend's voice. After seeing him in concert several times in Washington, DC, Maryland, and Boston I was more than sure that he would be the Stevie Wonder of my day. Okay, I might be pushing it, but the brotha comes closer than most post Stevie. It is inevitable that my boy JL is overflowing with talent. Its so hard to keep your eyes off the redbone brotha, with the little curly fro, tight leather jacket, and piano.
It really saddens me to admit to having a musical affair, which lead me to fall in love with Ryan Leslie. All it took was me watching him finesse the "I get money" track on YouTube and he stole both ears with my huge dangling gold earrings on.
Now, do you see why I had to cheat on JL?
I never thought another man outside of the hip-hop world had the ability to steal my attention and become so infatuated with his sound. I think Mr. Leslie is giving John Legend a run for his artistry, but thank God there is room for more than one hip-hop/soul artist.
Check out his new video "How it was supposed to be"! I love this track!!!
Ryan Leslie's album has been pushed back several times and I know you are probably addicted to him already, but you have to wait until his February 10, 2009 debut album release.
[Sidebar] Has anyone peeped John Legend's fine brother/back up singer Vaughn Anthony?
Isn't he just yummy? Back off, that's my man!
