The Tragic UNTOLD story of CHAKA KHAN
Ойын-сауық
This is the story of the Queen of Funk Chaka Khan who’s career has spanned more than five decades beginning in the early 1970s as the lead vocalist of the funk band Rufus as well as her personal struggles. She would become the first R&B artist to have a crossover hit featuring a rapper, with her 1984 song written by Prince "I Feel for You.
She has been ranked as the 65th most successful dance club artist of all Times by Billboard Music. She’s also ranked at No. 17 on VH1's original list of the 100 Greatest Women of Rock & Roll amongst other great accolades.

This always happens with groups. When one member gets more attention, other band mates get angry. Their personal and natural set of talents doesn’t make a star, Chaka’s did.

Yes she did and still doing her thang today
I love Chaka ! But, Prince did not write "i feel for you" for her… The song is from his second album released in 1979 (and was written for his "musical crush" of the time, Patrice Rushen - she rejected the song so Prince ended up releasing it himself). And Prince was not involved in Chaka Khan's 1984 version. David Frank (from The System) and Reggie Griffin both worked on the production of Chaka Khan's version, but, curiously enough, another "re-arranged" (but closer to the original) version was released the same year and the same month (!) on Rebbie Jackson's (Michael Jackson's oldest sister) 1984 "Centipede" album… 🤷🏻♂

GREAT little documentary! I had no idea Stevie wrote “Tell me something good”. Now I want to hear HIM sing it too! Chaka will always be one of my absolute favorites. “Ain’t Nobody” still gives me chills every single time. Such a unique and magnificent voice! Happy New Year! 🍻

Exactly 50 years ago, Stevie raced to copyright a song he only contributed 30 percent to. .CHAKA - THEN A TEENAGER, wrote a majority of the classic Tell Me Something Good. Stevie didn't split publishing

@@URBANTVOndemand in fact Chaka wrote Rufus’s first 5 BIG hits…. She don’t get enough credit for being a prolific songwriter.
Jealousy, envy, and narcissisms is the 3-headed dragon that has devoured and destroyed oh so many successful unions both business and personal.
Loved this video especially the early Chicago footage. Ms. Chaka was the godchild of my aunt and uncle. My uncle told funny tales of the antics of Chaka’s father. The only song I like of her’s is Everlasting Love which is a Rufus collaboration. It is always a pure joy to visit black Chicago of the past decades. Thanks for this video.

Chaka's 1985 hit Can't Stop The Street should've gotten mentioned on here
So greatful for my Dads extensive 11:32 alblum collection! He would always tell me about all the different Chaka Khan concerts he would attend! He’d try his hardest to be front row at her concerts bcuz he claimed she didn’t wear underwear during her performances 😂 In the 90s when I would be vibing to what I thought was a new song, he would pull an album and say They sampled Chaka!
