John Legend - Evolver Review
Boy has John Legend come a long way since his debut album "Get Lifted" . Two platinum albums later aswell as Grammy awards and he now moves onto the next chapter in his career. his Current single "Green Light" with Andre 3000 has been making it's way slowy up the charts peaking to #44 on the Billboard Hot 100. As for the album John wanted to take the album in a diffrent direction and that is exactly what he delivered. He hasn't completely left the sound that his fans have all grown to love but brings a more morden dance feel to many of the tracks. Being a big fan of his last two albums I can definitely appreciate the changeThe album starts out with "good morning" a slow synth heavy intro that kinda sets the tone for the direction of the album. then we jump into "green light" which personally was very suspect until 3k hopped on the verse mediocre song ,ridiculous verse from 3000. next in typical G.O.O.D fashion we have "its over" a track from the lv don himself kanye reminiscent of "number 1" off "get Lifted" . the song as a whole is a great track but ONCE again kanyes autotune killed it for me. Next we have a string of three tracks "Everybody knows" ."Quickly" and "Cross the Line" which Are the highest points of the album JL pulls no punches as he croons with epic I I I I Is on cross the line. jl then takes us through a slew of filler tracks excuse the harshness but YES filler tracks with the exception of "satisfaction" until He Blows our eradrums off with "If Your Out there" a powerful track thats brings the love i had for Legend on Get Lifted back...... all in all its still a good album . The man can do no wrong in my book so deff check out and BUY YOUR COPY OCTOBER 28TH!!
