This Is The New Chaka Khan's Album "Classikhan" Cover?



From this site:

http://www.cduniverse.com...=205199448

I don't know, man! it looks kinda "computer-worked". Why do OLD artists(1st Anita now Chaka) put all these low-budget album covers? neutral

Then again, it doesn't matter. At this point I can't wait for some new Chaka-Chaka-Chaka Khan music yaaaaay woot!

Shit lol you suckas always ignore my posts. I already posted the press release but here you go again Stymie babe:



A jazz album, just like she & some of us(including me) wanted. Its from the Mathew Knowles's(Beyonce's father) record label. The album release is on the same day as EW&F's album release.

Not only that, but she said that she's going to release ANOTHER new album this year which is the Funk/Soul & RnB one which will include her collapoartions with Mary J, Jill Scott, Angie Stone, Ray Saadiq, Clef, Sting, Norah Jones, Donnie & Arif Mardin(I think).

paligap-Chile, I will settle with it just the same even tho my niece could design a betta cover. Its been 6 years now since "Come 2 My House", that oughta make me(and other Chakaholics) feel desparate for NEW Yevette Stevens music nod

Those letters are sleek and sexy R&B font, even if its a bit 1997 SWVish. Black and white pics, can't go wrong.

biggrin That's true! At this point, I'd take it in a plain brown wrapper...or even no cover at all!

Did the tracks from the WB album she did with Me'Shell ever surface. Never Miss The Water is the only official track that was released. But, there is an entire album the two of them did together. Chaka said something to the effect that Warner thought the album was a little too funky...That kills me how they can just shelve a great project like that. I know it happens endlessly to all acts, but it's just a shame.

Her rendition of "Little Wing" is incredible from the Jimi Hendrix "Power of Soul" cd.

Speaking of bad album covers from divas, that cover from Gladys Knight on her solo record (this was years ago) was absolutely horrible. I am sure you know what I am talking about eek

Yep, the album is called "Dare You To Love Me",,,the bootleg is floating around us Chakaholics.

What they wanted was another "Mary J-esque or Faith-esque album" according to her book, they wanted her to go back and record more tracks but she gave them the finger instead. "Nobody's more hard and more critical on Chaka but Chaka Khan" to hear her say it.

I don't think the cover is that bad but the lettering of her name is a bit 80s. I look forward to this one.
