Legend confirmed that the album will be out in 2016 and revealed a roll-call of guest stars including Chance The Rapper and Miguel. Also set for the record in unspecified roles are Kamasi Washington, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, and Blake Mills. “The music is really, really, good,” Legend told fans from his home. “I think it’s my best work yet.”

The Oscar-winner also clarified that his pro-Democrat political views won't make it into the music. “It’s not really preachy. I don’t like to preach too much in my songs. I preach on Twitter,” he said.
