Legendary singer Smokey Robinson works with JC Chasez and Aloe Blacc to update Motown classics on his hot new album 'Smokey and Friends. Below, the musical trio talks about the new project on ABC's GOOD MORNING AMERICA. 

Among the artists who will team up with Robinson are Elton John, Aerosmith's Steven Tyler, James Taylor, John Legend and Mary J. Blige.

Explains Smokey, "Let me tell you something. As a songwriter, my fondest dream is that someone records my songs ... And most of the people who have recorded my songs have been songwriters themselves, so for them to pick one of my songs and do it is a real joy. So I love any version, any way they do 'em."

The new album 'Smokey & Friend's' was released August 19th.
