Forgotten Chaka Khan Jam: "Tearin' It Up" One of my favorite Chaka Khan jams is one that most people seem to have forgotten...."Tearin' It Up". This jam was hot! Give it up. Andy is a four letter word. | |

This album contained a funky duet with Rick James "Slow Dancin".This track got alot of airplay on R&B stations but shockingly,it was never released as a single.Apparently,Motown (Rick's label) wouldn't allow it to be released as a single. | |

I don't have Chaka's album, I just have the two 45s from it. I do remember a Rick James duet with her back in the day back I can't remember how it sounds. Andy is a four letter word. | |
