It's been nearly 20 years since John Legend first burst onto the scene with his soulful debut R&B album, Get Lifted. Back then the young star was a bachelor crooning about quintessentially bachelor things on hits like "Used to Love U" and "She Don't Have to Know." But what a difference a couple of decades, a happy marriage and four beautiful children can make on a man. "It's truly nonstop," the EGOT-winning entertainer, 45, says of life with his wife of 11 years, Chrissy Teigen, 38, and their kids Luna, 8, Miles, 6, Esti, 20 months, and Wren, 15 months. "They're so cute, and it's interesting to see their personalities develop," he adds of his little ones, "but it's all hands on deck."
Balancing a busy career with the full-time demands of family life is no small feat, but Legend recently merged his two worlds to create his latest musical baby: My Favorite Dream, a family album released in partnership with Fisher-Price. With the record, Legend has officially gone from baby-making music, to making music for babies. And the project has been a family affair: Lead single "Love" features Teigen, Luna and Miles on the hook. "It's four voices singing over top of each other," he says. "We recorded a video of me trying to wrangle them and show them how to navigate the studio." But as much as he loves teaching his kids new things, Legend has been the one learning life's greatest lessons since he became a dad. Here he shares some of the wisdom he's gleaned while rearing his brood.
