If the slew of singles John Legend‘s released this year is any indication of what’s to come on his new album, it’s clear he’s getting by with a little help from his friends.

First dropping ‘Dope’ which featured JID (as we reported here), Legend followed by drafting fellow singer-songwriter Muni Long for that song’s successor, ‘Honey.’

Now, just a month later he’s already moving on to the tasty tune’s follow-up:  the Saweetie-assisted ‘All She Wanna Do.’

“All she wanna do is dance / All I wanna do is get up on her / Got me in the palm of her hands / All I wanna touch is her nirvana / Feels like I’vе been waitin’ for,” he sings on the Disco-tinged groove.

Four police officers have been federally charged for their roles in the death of Breonna Taylor. 

In a case that shocked the world and was crucial to re-amplifying the pulse of the Black Lives Matter movement, Taylor was shot to death in her home in Louisville, Kentucky.

Plainclothes officers executed a “no-knock” search warrant and opened fire on the unarmed Black woman as she lay in bed.
