they backed Jay-Z up on his unplugged album, probably one of the best rap performances in history.

Time to give them the hook. (Must be a generation thing.)

I'm at a loss to explain the love they're getting here. Just awful.

19. Got to meet him during the 2008 elections. |
|
One of the perks of working my ass off for the campaign.
And, yes, he's just as dreamy in person. There was much swooning.

15. OK someone who knows John Legend |
|
please inform me. I have heard a few things from him over the last few years and it was not anything I would be remotely interested in. OK, today I hear what is going on onstage and I can't tear myself away. Is this more the typical Legend? If it is I am headed over to ITunes. :-)
Funky, sounds like the good funk we used to listen to. I have missed it and yes....I am geezing here with the music and it is not a pretty sight but it sure is fun!

They also play on the Jimmy Fallon show.
They're legendary.

18. They are an amazing band. |
|
I almost feel 18 again ;).
Outstanding, tight band. James Brown always had the tightest band I ever heard, these guys are just as tight. Excellent entertainment.
