More quotes by John Legend
I've felt like my last name put pressure on me as an artist. If you're going to call yourself Legend, you'd better make some good-ass music.
John Legend
Now that I'm coming out with my own record people can see I'm a solo artist.
John Legend
I don't get to listen to music for fun very often a lot of what I'm hearing is for work and isn't released yet.
John Legend
Sometimes there's that perfect moment when the crowd, the music, the energy of the room come together in a way that brings me to tears.
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.

I think it's a bit of a myth that black Americans need one leader. We're not a monolith. And now that legal segregation and discrimination has been pretty much abolished there isn't the sort of universal mandate that a black leader would have. Black folks live in a wide variety of social situations right now.
John Legend
Experience is a great teacher.

John Legend
I don't like going to football games. I like watching them on television. When you go to a game, it's hard to focus. There's so much going on, and it's cold. I'd rather sit and watch it and get replays and commentary.
John Legend
Soul is about authenticity. Soul is about finding the things in your life that are real and pure.
John Legend
I keep learning, listening, growing and experimenting.
John Legend
As a young black boy, it made me proud to see black leaders that did something amazing and made the world change.
John Legend
I guess a lot of times pressure is put on something after it becomes big.
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
Critics like to describe and categorize things, and categories often have a way of limiting people.
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
I don't really marinate in anybody's album because I don't really want to sound like anybody else when I put my album out. So I'd rather not even be tempted to listen to a bunch of other stuff with any degree of emersion in it, cause I just don't want to sound like anything else, so I kinda focus on my own music.
