John Legend “Very Disappointed” With Kanye For Meeting With Trump [WATCH]

john-legend-donald-trump

A lot of heads were shaking yesterday when pictures of Kanye West meeting with Donald Trump at the Trump Tower in NYC surfaced. After being hit with backlash from his Trump-supporting comments West dug an even deeper hole amongst fans and peers by meeting with Trump.

West tried to clean up the meeting by saying it was for “change” and to discuss “multicultural issues” like bullying, violence in Chicago, supporting teachers, etc.

John Legend, one of Ye’s good friends and G.O.O.D. Music signees sat down with French media company Clique to discuss the meeting. Legend wasn’t buying the reasoning behind the meeting and viewed it as more of a publicity stunt for Trump.

Legend has been very vocal in his disapproval of Trump since the early primaries and was “very disappointed” Ye met with the President-elect.

“I think the things he’s promised to do have been very concerning for a lot of people, and for Kanye to support that message is very disappointing,” Legend told Clique.

John Legend’s “Darkness and Light” Is Here

John Legend spreads love around with his new album “Darkness and Light,’ which is considered to be one of his most personal and intimate projects. The 12-track album features artists such as Chance The Rapper and Miguel.
Eight months ago, the artist and his wife were blessed with their daughter, Luna, and the singer dedicated the 8th song of “Darkness and Light” to her. The track is entitled “Right by You (for Luna)” and the lyrics sound like a conversation filled with questions for his daughter and metaphorical ideas.
There is no doubt that John Legend’s album has depth and is intended to add value to the world. “If you follow me on Twitter, you know I have a point of view. I want to do the same with my art. I want to contribute to the conversation,” explained the singer in an interview.

John Legend Shows The Power Of Love In New Video

While we’re all waiting for the release of his next album “Darkness and Light” that will drop next month, John Legend surprises us with the “Love Me Now” video, which depicts the power of true love.
The video of the song was directed by Nabil Elderkin and pictures different happy couples around the world, in places like Domiz Refugee Camp in Iraq, Pulse Nighclub in Orlando, Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic and Standing Rock Reservation in North Dakota.
John Legend stars together with his wife, Chrissy Tiegen, and their beautiful daughter, Luna.
“This video shows how love can be shared in some of the most difficult situations on earth in which the human spirit and connection with each other prevails. From one of the longest standing refugee camps in northern Iraq just 45 miles outside of Mosul, to Standing Rock Reservation where they are fighting against the Dakota Access Pipeline that threatens their sacred lands and all of our water, it is a glimpse into these couples’ lives and the lives of those in their communities,” said director Nabil Elderkin.
Thank you, John Legend, for showing us that in a mad world, love can overcome anything.

Video: Rick Ross – “Free Enterprise” Feat. John Legend [WATCH]

Rick Ross drops the visuals for “Free Enterprise” featuring John Legend off last year’s ‘Black Market’ album.

The video comes a day after Donald Trump was elected President of the United States and Republicans won the house, senate, and the Supreme Court. It is projected that minorities will be heavily targeted and prosecuted by the court system given Trump and the Republican Party’s bigotry and racism.

Towards the end of the video an African-American is stopped by law enforcement officers, who drive up on the side walk and exit the car with guns drawn in front the man’s son. Ross adds to the powerful video by displaying prison statistics of black men at the end.
