John Legend’s upcoming collaborative release with The Roots is not your average covers album. Aptly titled ‘Wake Up!,’ the album includes Bill Withers track ‘I Can’t Write Left-Handed,’ Ernie Hines’ 1970 classic ‘Our Generation’ and, as you’ll see below, Donny Hathaway’s ‘Little Ghetto Boy.’

We have the exclusive in-studio clip of the men joining forces. Enjoy it below!
