"Tearin' It Up" by Chaka Khan

She's definately living up to the title on this jam. One of my favorites by her. Give it up.

You guys wanna hear something funny? Back in 1982 or 83 when this song came out,I had no idea what the phrase "tearin it up" meant.So I hear this song and assumed she was singing about a no-good boyfriend....informing him that she is "tearing up" all the love letters that he sent her...lol...

She's talking about getting her cat torn up. And from the way she's screaming on this song, it sounds like it's happening in progress. lol

Somebody from her board showed this old pic of her and him sitting on a sofa high as a Georgia Pine lol naturally.

Loved the story about the party she attended in Rick James' house after the recording. Supposedly she let this big Mafioso dude have it for getting too fimiliar with her(esp when he saw how loose Rick & Chaka acted in front of each other), according to Rick, she burbed a "shut the fuck up" and the guy kept his mouth shut untill she got outta there lol Now THATS the Chaka I know, goddammit evillol
