He truly is a remarkable artist. Stevie Wonder live is a bucket list type of concert. And now the iconic artist is reviving one of his most successful master pieces. And bringing in a little politics to boot. Stevie Wonder has always blended his musical genius with social activism, and as he launched his new tour, he stayed true to form, advocating gun control, pleading for an end to racism and advocating equality for those with disabilities. "I challenge America, I challenge the world, to let hatred go, to let racism go," Wonder told the sold-out audience at Madison Square Garden on Thursday night. "That is the only way we will win as a nation and the world." Wonder's "Songs in the Key of Life" tour was dedicated to the music from that groundbreaking double album, which included classic hits like "Sir Duke," ''I Wish," ''As" and "Isn't She Lovely." A legendary album celebrated as much for its musicality as its message, the 1976 project won multiple Grammy Awards and further cemented Wonder's brilliance. http://nr.news-republic.com/Web/ArticleWeb.aspx?regionid=1&articleid=31512871
