John Legend is hitting the road.
The Grammy and Oscar winner is bringing his latest album ‘Darkness and Light’ to audiences across the globe.
Aptly, the trek has been christened the ‘Darkness & Light Tour.’
Released last December, the set yielded moderate hit ‘Love Me Now’ and upcoming single ‘Surefire.’
Since the LP’s roll-out, Legend more omnipresent than ever. Indeed, there’s been the high profile performances, lucrative synch deals for a number of songs from the project, and a sizeable role in box office blockbuster ‘La La Land.’
He also recently teamed with Ariana Grande for a remake of the ‘Beauty & The Beast’ theme song.
In an industry less defined by the charts than before, he continues to prove that success is relative and winning comes in many flavours.

KING OF BORING.
Surefire is an amazing song and great single choice. I’ve added it to my wedding play playlist looool now I just need the ring…and the man.
but his album was nice and his voice is beautiful. I’d defo go
who would pay to see John sit at a piano and sing boring music?
Lol I;ve went to see him and his shows are actually good. He doesn’t just sit at the piano anymore
i wish he would released penthouse floor as a single
It’s no different then seeing Adele stand at a microphone and sing boring music. Her tour was sold out and not one complaint. So what if he’s at a piano.
I’d pay to see him twerk those cheeks on a stage, that’s worth the price of admission
Ugh excuse y’all! Today is Mariah Carey’s Anniversary! Why haven’t you guys made a post about this yet?!
Can you report on No Frauds falling 70 positions on the Hot 100
