Kanye West got a lot of dap for being brave enough to sample Shirley Bassey’s song “Diamonds are Forever” on his new album. . . but not from Shirley. She says she just found out that Kanye sampled her song on his track “Diamonds From Sierra Leone”. . . and she’s thinking about taking LEGAL ACTION. She told the Limey newspaper the “Daily Mail”, quote, “I didn’t know anything about the song before its release. He didn’t ask my permission to have me singing on his song. I didn’t even know it existed until I heard him performing at the Live 8 concert. I didn’t even hear from his record company, which wasn’t very nice.” “[Legally] it’s something I want to look in to, because he was very cheeky, so one way or another he is going to have to pay me a lot of money.”
