#NewMusic John Legend – Penthouse Floor (Feat. Chance The Rapper)

John legend gives us another crooner tune with Chance The Rapper, “Penthouse Floor” is an example of the music we need; music with a lesson.

“All this trouble in this here town/ All this shit going down/ When will they focus, on this/ Streets ride up with the TV crews/ Look ma, we on the news/ But they didn’t notice/ Before this” 

With Legend never being shy about speaking on social injustices, those lyrics portray how the rich that can live this wealthy lifestyle tend to forget about those that can’t. That they are not paying attention to the needs of their communities being so blinded by what they once didn’t have. “Penthouse Floor” is the latest offering from Legend’s upcoming album “Darkness & Light”, due out on Dec. 2, which will feature Miguel, Alabama Shakes, and more.
