  • Джон Ледженд (John Legend) — псевдоним американского автора-исполнителя Джона Стивенса (John Stephens), который считается одним из основных представителей нео-соула — ретроспективного направления в современном ритм-н-блюзе. Выпуск дебютного альбома Ледженда, «Get Lifted» (2004), сопровождался исключительно тёплыми отзывами музыкальных критиков, которые принесли ему пять премий «Грэмми». Несмотря на отмечаемую в записях Ледженда преемственность с мастерами ритм-энд-блюза предыдущих поколений, исполнитель не чуждается хип-хоповых влияний. Так, в «Get Lifted» звучит вокал ведущих рэперов Снуп Догга и Канье Уэста.
