John Legend "gets lifted" by André 3000 on "Green Light," his most upbeat single yet and the first from the new album "Evolver." At first listen, it sounds like an OutKast song featuring Legend, because of the catchy, futuristic production and rhythms—but don't be fooled. The R&B crooner carries the song as his own while André Benjamin lends vocal charm as the party smash begins to monopolize multiple formats. The song is now climbing to the top half of the Billboard Hot 100, while also scoring on Hot Dance Club Play and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. It's refreshing to see the 2006 Grammy Award best new artist winner shift his sound around. "Green Light" is headed into a traffic jam of fall hits, but Legend has a hot top 10 contender on his hands.—Michael Minachem
