THE LEGEND IS "NOW"

Columbia's John Legend has returned to the upper reaches of the iTunes chart with new single "Love Me Now," which puts an upbeat, syncopated spin on his impeccably romantic sensibility. The velvety track is currently #8. Take a listen below.

Legend and his wife, Chrissy Teigen, joined Columbia's Jim Burruss and AMP NYC PD Rick Thomas for the above photo op. Later, Thomas said Teigen's new cookbook had inspired him to compile an anthology of radio-station recipes, including "Pizza From the Fridge," "Nachos Somebody Didn't Finish" and a"Promotional Power Bar Salad."

Legend, it should be noted, shared a Grammy and an Oscar for the Selma song he recorded with Common, "Glory," and previously had a smash with "All of Me" from album Love in the Future.
