John Legend

Of course the soundtrack to a movie where Will Smith plays a romantic advisor would be filled with love songs. But this is the perfect blend of old-school jams from masters like the O'Jays, the Temptations, and Earth, Wind & Fire, along with tracks by newer artists like Kevin Lyttle, John Legend and Amerie. Let the swooning begin.

The towering highlight of this soundtrack is Amerie's "1 Thing," which features an inspired
use of the Meters' drum-heavy rendition of "Oh, Calcutta" -- it's possibly the best sample in
mainstream R&B since the Chi-Lites helped BeyoncE get horn-y on "Crazy in Love."
Elsewhere, sweet new tracks from Earth, Wind and Fire and John Legend mix with soul
classics.
