Chaka reminds me of Pam Grier.

They both got it, but not just quite.

Two great things that go great together!

Note: som eof the comments about Chaka's style make me wonder what some of y'all are listening to instead of her that you deem good.

When eye go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all heart up in the house but when eye log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming!

She also sang Prince's Eternity & Sticky Wicked. As far as Eternity goes I like Prince's, then Chaka's & not Sheena's @ all. As far as I Feel For You, depends on my mood. Sign O' The Times, Prince's version. Don't Talk 2 Strangers, depends on the mood. I like Come On but that's about it as far her NPG releases. Chaka is the SHIT!!!!

Jimi Hendrix was a great guitar player but he couldn't sing for shit. Chaka is hands down the greatest female singer of all time.

Chaka & Rufus

Chaka & Stevie

Chaka & Quincy

Chaka & Arif

Chaka & Prince

Chaka & whoever

The music will be great because Chaka is great and she works with nothing but the best. The same with Prince. They are a winning team. cool

Stevie Wonder = EARTH
Prince = WIND
Chaka Khan = FIRE
Sade = WATER

Chaka Khan is a legend with a voice that can put most artist to shame except Prince lol From "Tell Me Something Good" to "Come On"-the woman is beautiful inside and out. Take a listen to "Through the Fire" and "Angel" both are great songs.

nod

Plus anybody that doesn't like Chaka's screaming. Prince has screamed just as much.

I want to correct any impression I gave that I am not a Chaka fan! I have been a huge Chaka fan since she was with Rufus in the 70s. I went to see her last year and she wasn't "screaming" any songs--she sang them the way they were meant to be sung--jazzy type to funk. The lady still delivers with class and style and hits all the notes how they should be hit! wink

I consider Come 2 My House superior to Newpower Soul. Wish he would have kept some of that stuff to himself.

"Come 2 My House" wasn't bad and it had it's moments. I liked it WAY better than "GCS2000".

But when I want to listen to Chaka I go back to the 1970's.

Out of the thousands of concerts that I've seen, Chaka was the best. She opened for P and Larry and blew them both off the stage. She played hit after hit and had EVERYONE in the arena dancing. Even the security, police, ticket takers and the vendors at the food stands were doing the

2 step.

I thought it was cool that he brought her out and worked with her. I hope they're still on good terms.

Co-Sign I saw the same at those show. Chaka is a great live performer and those that think she is screaming on every song do not know her whole catalogue and I would not be surprised if they think all black females scream. It is called singing with some emotion and feeling instead of being a stone on stage.

Funny how back in the 80s no one had a problem with bunch of heavy metal guys screaming their heads off and if loud noise bothers you how the hell do you listen to popular music.

Go try listening to some elavator music if you ears are that sensitive.
