More quotes by John Legend
I keep learning, listening, growing and experimenting.
John Legend
I was in an a cappella group in school, so it particularly helped me keep my piano chops up.
John Legend
I played classical as a kid.
John Legend
Music, to me, if it's good, it's good. That's all that matters.
John Legend
Some people, you know, should just go to college and do what they do and have a great job and not worry about trying to be famous as a singer. It's not for everyone.
John Legend
I always saw myself as a singer-songwriter, a solo-artist, that's why working with other artists was never satisfying for me.
John Legend
I hear melodies and hooks all day. I've always been that way, since I was a kid.
John Legend
But in my mind I've always been a solo artist- I've just been working with a lot of great people like Kanye and Alicia Keys and Jay-Z.
John Legend
If you want the film [La La Land ] to represent all things jazz, it does not. You'll be disappointed by that. But, if you just see it as one guy's point of view, one filmmaker's point of view, and one story among many stories that can be told about jazz, then it's not as much of an issue.
John Legend
The weirdest thing about Hillary Clinton's email 'scandal' is finding out some of our senators still don't use email.
John Legend
As a nation - and as a world - we need more truth.
John Legend
The main focus for me is not trying to find duet partners. It's about just making great songs. I want most of my album to be in my voice, because it's my point of view.
John Legend
The issue I focus on the most is extreme poverty. I think it's kind of out of sight out of mind. I wish there would be more stories about that to connect people to what's happening. To personalize it, to make it real to people, to inspire them to action.
John Legend
The fun part about collaborating is that you naturally just bounce off each other's energy and learn off each other.
John Legend
Kind of the critical acclaim of this movie [La La Land] is that it's striking a chord with the public in a way that has been really beautiful and powerful.
John Legend
You learn so much from taking chances, whether they work out or not. Either way, you can grow from the experience and become stronger and smarter.
John Legend
In terms of the technology I use the most, it's probably a tie between my Blackberry and my MacBook Pro laptop. That's how I communicate with the rest of the world and how I handle all the business I have to handle.
John Legend
Why wouldn't I help? What good reason do I have as a human being with power and a sense of empathy and morality, why wouldn't I do something?
John Legend
I don't feel like that many musicians are competitive with each other.
John Legend
I do believe that part of us ending racism is us seeing each other's humanity and learning to love each other, even if we look different or worship differently or live differently.
John Legend
