John Legend is sharing the real reason behind his falling out with former friend Kanye West.
Legend says that,"I don't know what will happen in the future" regarding his relationship with West, which stems all the way back to working together on West's albums in the early 2000s."He was very upset with me that I didn't support him and I supported Joe Biden," Legend says."It's up to him whether he can get past that."
He also addresses West's decision to make public private text messages that they had exchanged at the time of their disagreement in 2020. "Everyone saw how I talked to him about it. I talked to him with love and with empathy, and tried to help him see another way of looking at things. And obviously he went the way he went with it," Legend recalls. "The most frustrating thing about his run for the presidency for me was how much it was an operation run by the Trump campaign.
with Kanye. He started calling me the Legend, because I reminded him of some of the artists we grew up listening to, and he heard the ancestors in my voice. That morphed into John Legend, and he and Kanye and a bunch of the other people around us were, like, 'Man, that’s a stage name, John. You should go with that!'" he says.
Legend continues,"When they started calling me that nickname, it was more our inner circle. But then Kanye started referring to me as that when he was introducing me to people: 'Check out this artist I’ve signed! His name is John Legend.' I was, like, 'F**k, how am I going to tell people to call me John Legend? I don’t even have a record deal yet! What if I’m a flop? I’m just going to bet on myself and spend all my energy trying to live up to this lofty stage name.
