  John Legend, who is set to return on the 19th season of “The Voice,” has spoken about what he has been during the quarantine, October 13, Tuesday.

  Legend has shared that he didn’t wait any longer to release his newest album amid the COVID-19 pandemic. “Times are tough, people are stressed and uncertain and worried, and I feel like music can help us get through moments like this, so I wanted people to have it,” he explained.

  “Bigger Love” album was released on June 19. It is Legend’s seventh studio album.

  “Bigger Love was such a labor of love for me. I couldn’t imagine waiting until the pandemic was over to put it out because we don’t even know when it’s going to be over, we don’t know when we can all get back together and physically enjoy the music together. So, I just wanted to give it to the people when it was ready,” he said.
