Change feat. Luther Vandross "Searching"
You’ve heard his voice sampled by Kendrick Lamar and SZA in “Luther,” but do you know his story? This week on One Song,
Diallo and LUXXURY unpack the track that helped launch Luther Vandross
into the spotlight – Change’s “Searching.” They dig into his early days
singing with David Bowie and Chic, explore the lore behind the
Italo-disco group Change, and bask in the glow of Luther’s isolated
vocals.
