John Legend is not here for Donald Trump.

The singer made that abundantly clear during his insightful sit-down on The Breakfast Club this morning.

Chopping it up with Charlamagne, DJ Envy, and Angela Yee, the ‘All Of Me’ belter offered a damning take on the controversial presidential candidate. Conversely, he showered praise aplenty on Hillary Clinton.

Beyond the political sphere, the 37-year-old spilled on new music (which he says is coming before the year’s end), life as a father, whether he’ll stay signed to Kanye West’s G.O.O.D Music, his growing TV portfolio, and much more.
