First Listen: Is MAJOR. the new John Legend?

Share this article

    So, who is this MAJOR. guy? And why does he put a period after his ALL CAPPED name? Well, MAJOR. is known mostly as a songwriter, having written for the soundtrack of Think Like A Man Too and also for pop songstress, Ariana Grande.

    And the singer/songwriter's debut goes well into John Legend-land, with a ballad that is climbing the urban charts now. It’s a decent piano-led love song, and may portend things to come from the artist. The gentle song certainly is an anomaly on urban radio. And the accompanying video is also unusual, with a first person look by the singer at the woman he loves throughout the day.

    Check out MAJOR. (good, we remembered the period) below and tell us what you think!
