	NewBeats.com: John Legend
		One other thing of note: John Legend's name is almost like saying 'John Lennon.' And it is not that surprising since one was a great singer/songwriter with an amazing history; the other is a promising newcomer establishing his future and living up to his moniker.
		Against convention, Legend puts the music and the words before the beat and the rhymes, and the results sound like vintage '70s Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder.
		Legend's lyrics are mainly meditations on romance whether it's playful ("Alright," the sly, l'et's-keep-it-on-the-down-low' "She Don't Have to Know") or complicated and serious ("Ordinary Love," "Number One").

	John Legend - Get Lifted - Review - Stylus Magazine
		As John Legend begins his album with this preface, it begs the question: “What is it that’s new about him?” The Stevie Wonder crooning he uses to give this message certainly isn’t.

		While John Legend doesn’t quite live up to the hype of being the next D’Angelo (oh, the needle and the damage done), he has crafted a solid debut.

	The Legend of John Wilkes Booth
		He traces the legend’s development in the weeks following the assassination to the appearance of the “Booth Mummy,” the remains of an Oklahoma drifter embalmed in 1903 and displayed in carnival sideshows throughout the West.
		Weaving a “vernacular intellectual history,” Evans shows how the legend emerged from a tangle of cultural and historical events including white Americans’ quest for a suitable racial pre-history, collective memories of the Civil War, and even incipient suspicions of conspiracy, since belief in Booth’s escape automatically implied a government cover-up of Booth’s capture and death.
		The Legend of John Wilkes Booth is a compelling story of how collective memories and popular histories collide with, clash, and sometimes overcome mainstream accounts of the past.
