John Legend is taking a trip down memory lane in the best way possible—by going on tour!
The 46-year-old singer-songwriter is marking the 20th anniversary of his debut album Get Lifted with a special tour across North America and the UK. Originally released in 2004, the album was a game-changer, blending R&B, neo-soul, and hip-hop in a way that felt fresh and timeless. It won three Grammy Awards and cemented John Legend’s place as a major force in the music industry.
A press release for the tour reflects on the album’s impact: “The album’s uncanny melodic blend of R&B, neo-soul, hip-hop, cosmopolitan sophistication, and sly street smarts signaled the arrival of a new major artist with deep musical roots, an affinity for pop music, and a plan for the future.”
It also highlights John’s influence as a songwriter and producer: “With all songs written or co-written by John Legend, who also served as co-producer on much of the album, Get Lifted introduced him to the world as a top-tier tunesmith with a lyrical sensibility that captured the full spectrum and emotional reality of human affairs, from the raunchy to the sublime.”
The anniversary tour promises to be a nostalgic and heartfelt experience for fans, as John revisits the songs that first made him a star. Tickets go on sale this Friday (March 21) via Ticketmaster—so mark your calendars!
