John Legend Praises Estelle's Success

John Legend says he is really happy that Estelle has had so much success, after the R&B star signed the singer to his own Homeschool label.

"There has been a lot of talk about who is coming over from the UK. I am very, very proud of Estelle. American Boy is the song of the summer." Legend is quoted as saying.

"I think this album is more sophisticated than her first. The writing, production and her confidence has grown too. Overall she is a better artist."

Estelle was picked-up by John after her former label V2 Records dropped her, because debut single '1980' failed to enter the UK top ten singles chart back in 2004.
