Jada Kingdom will be featured on John Legend’s upcoming double album, “Legend,” which will be released on September 9.
In making the announcement, Kingdom shared an excerpt from a Rolling Stone article where Legend talks about the eponymous project. “Until now, I’ve never used any aspect of my name as the title of an album,” Legend said in his statement announcing the project. “I had to win this, live up to it by delivering the performance and the music. And that’s me saying, I’m proud of who I am, I’m confident in the work that I’ve done, and I’m just going to declare that,” he said.
Jada Kingdom shared her gratitude to Legend for being on the trail and thanked her ex-boyfriend Verse Simmonds, among others, for helping her out. “@johnlegend you are so true!” she wrote on her Instagram account.
“@versesimmonds & @iamworldwidefresh & @digenius1 You never fail when it comes to me! Thank you all for making this possible,” she added.
