John Legend Dips Into His G-Funk Roots On ‘Actions’

It's built around that funky sample...

John Legend has shared his new single 'Actions'.

The singer recently topped the Stateside charts with his single 'Conversations In The Dark', and a full album is incoming.

Responding to the coronavirus pandemic with some Instagram concerts, he's now decided to share something new.

Out now, 'Actions' is a piece of liquid funk, borrowing a hefty sample from David McCallum's 'The Edge' – which you might recognise as the fulcrum of Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s 'The Next Episode'.
