Performs like The King producing Jazz Singer (6)
I believe the answer is:
reigns
'performs' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with social activities as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'the king producing jazz singer' is the wordplay.
'singer' can be anagrammed to 'REIGNS'.
But, I am not clear how this is indicated.
'like' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for reigns that I've seen before include "Periods of sovereign rule" , "Rules over, occupies throne" , "Rules as monarch" , "Rules as sovereign" , "Rules over like singer" .)
