John Legend is something however. I imply, it’s been readily obvious for a while. All one must do is hear his ballad All of Me and the lyrics – “Playing cards on the desk, we’re each exhibiting hearts” – to know he’s not precisely a deep, lyrically complicated artist.
What he is, nonetheless, is at all times keen to faucet dance for the left and their newest ‘woke’ initiatives. As such, McSweeny’s editor Lucy Huber just lately reminded us of that with Legend’s ‘up to date’ model of the traditional Christmas music Child, It’s Chilly Exterior.
Huber posted the lyrics to the X social media platform and gave her ideas: “The up to date lyrics to John Legend and Kelly Clarkson’s Child It’s Chilly Exterior are actually so humorous.”
It will depend on the way you have a look at it actually. The cringe makes it humorous, positive. However it additionally makes it unhappy that any person with the final identify of Legend could possibly be such a disappointment.

Legend ought to make individuals who need to hearken to this crap signal consent varieties.
The music has gone from a person flirting with a girl within the hopes that she’ll stick with him to a man who can’t wait to do away with the poor woman.
There are a minimum of half a dozen references to John Legend telling Kelly Clarkson that he’s received a journey on the best way for her and to get the hell out. To not point out repeated references to an Uber driver named Murray.
I’ve received $100 that claims Murray is making out with Kelly inside 5 minutes after she was so relieved to get away from the ‘it’s your physique and selection’ beta she simply left behind.
