John Legend Covers Ray Charles’ ‘Georgia On My Mind’ As Georgia Continues To Count Votes
Legend’s video came after reports that Joe Biden had taken the lead over Donald Trump in Georgia. …
This morning, multiple topics related to Georgia, Ray Charles, the song “Georgia On My Mind,” and John Legend were trending on Twitter. That’s because as election votes continue to be counted in Georgia, a lot of people are thinking about the Charles classic, including Legend, who shared a video of himself singing the song. The song was written by Hoagy Carmichael and Stuart Gorrell but most famously recorded by Ray Charles, whose version of the track is Georgia’s official state song.
Legend took on the song a capella, and at the end of the two-minute clip, Legend said with a smile, “I love you, Georgia!” Legend’s video came after reports that Joe Biden had taken the lead in Georgia as well as Pennsylvania.

The musician has of course been a vocal supporter of Biden and critic of Donald Trump. He performed at Biden’s pre-election rally and discussed Trump’s “Platinum Plan,” saying, “But Trump’s Platinum Plan for Black folks is nothing but fool’s gold, because you can’t bank on a word he says. Ask the students of Trump University. Ask all of the contractors he stiffed. Ask the people his charity was supposed to help before it was shut down for being a fraud. Ask all the Black and brown Americans who are dying from this virus and losing their jobs under his watch. The president isn’t strong: He’s a coward, and his career in business and in government has been failure after failure after failure.”
Watch Legend sing “Georgia On My Mind” above.

Josh Garnett makes reflection ring true on new release “Show You How”
“Show You How” is a deeply reflective song that values emotional honesty over empty spectacle, and Josh Garnett continues to define modern hip-hop. Kentucky native Garnett’s record is immersive from the start, with atmospheric production and conscious storytelling.
“Show You How” stands out for its purpose. Instead of chasing trends or using surface hooks, Josh Garnett embraces openness and writes like personal journal entries set to cinematic soundscapes. Hazy textures create a dreamlike Midwest hip-hop setting, and his delivery balances sharp lyricism and subtle melodic emotion.
Garnett explores ambition, mindset, isolation, and transformation without preaching or overproducing. Instead, he lets his audience reflect on their own lives. Life, growth, setbacks, and self-knowledge permeate every line.
Garnett builds atmosphere, perspective, and connection as an artist, not just songs. “Show You How” shows that introspective hip-hop can be cinematic and personal. The release lingers after the music stops, reminding us that growth and reflection can be an artist’s loudest statements.

Chandra deliver a cinematic tribute to hope and victory with “Nessun Dorma (We’ll Win!)”
With the FIFA World Cup 2026 looming, UK pop-rock band Chandra have released a bold and emotive rework of one of classical music’s most celebrated works. “Nessun Dorma (We’ll Win!)” is a fresh take on the timeless aria by Giacomo Puccini, turning it into a contemporary pop-rock anthem about hope, heartbreak, resilience, and the emotional chaos of believing in victory.
Chandra reinterprets the spirit of the original into a cinematic contemporary form. The song is in three acts, a perfect representation of the emotional rollercoaster every football fan understands. It captures the emotional rhythm of sport and human determination with surprising depth, from the nervous anticipation of waiting for the impossible to the crushing feeling of defeat, and finally the triumphant return of belief.
“Nessun Dorma (We’ll Win!)” is a mashup of soaring melodies and anthemic rock energy, with a polished production from Elliot Vaughan. Chandra Nair’s vocals are urgent and passionate throughout, and Chris Wong’s bass work and Mike Paul’s lead guitar lines add pressure and release at all the right moments. “Nessun Dorma (We’ll Win!)” sounds like it was born to be sung in full stadiums, in late-night revelry, and in moments when faith refuses to die. It’s surprising, uplifting, and emotionally sincere, a brave release that shows Chandra isn’t afraid to push beyond boundaries.
