Can I just point out that Aretha Franklin's funeral is the best description of a black funeral on this planet we don't mourn the dead we celebrate they life

That's why I'm watching this morning. This performance by Chaka Khan at Aretha Franklin's funeral inspires spiritual joy. After sheltering-in-place and missing Thanksgiving, Christmas and New year's Eve celebrations, I was feeling depressed. Not anymore. Now I know that I was afflicted with self-pity. Aretha is still giving me happiness and strength, God bless her.

Here are the receipts that CHAKA KHAN can sing ANYTHING! Marques, this Home Going celebration was just spectacular yet sad that Ms. Franklin was not alive to see herself be honored. It would be nice if we honored our Kings and Queens while they are still with us. I mean a real good hour or two just for them not knocking the BET Honors or BET Music Awards but a show just for that one artist or group/band. Ms. Franklin will be sorely missed🌹

Ok, this is for the folks that don't know that is "CHAKA". You have to understand that! She took this song to another level along with the director "Kurt Carr". Also, Chaka had just arrived from the airport and given the lyrics to this song! Give this ICON a break! Raised Catholic and brought the House down like she was "Old School Southern Baptist" with Jazzy twist! Again, THIS IS CHAKA BABY! Sang mama! Over 65 and blowing better than 20 year olds. Autotune my foot!

Beautiful what what home going for the queen of soul.

Of note to those who choose to be critics- her presence, although physically small engulfed the whole church. Look at the faces of those behind her, enthralled by the sheer magnitude of her delivery. As to the use of the fan, she may have been unfamiliar with the song as she was not raised Baptist but rather Catholic. As a fellow recovering Catholic, I wish we had this kind of service as part of our liturgy. Off key or not, Chaka rocked the house, what a great tribute from one Queen to another.

Chaka sang her behind off🥰!!!, took US ALL THE WAY TO CHURCH💒 WHILE WE WERE @ CHURCH🙏🏾.... Then just when you thought 💭 she was thru she BLESSED US AGAIN WITH HER BEAUTIFUL VOICE🎤🎼!!!....Now this is SANGIN’🙌🏾......THE LORD & ARETHA ARE MORE THAN PLEASED W/THIS AWESOME TRIBUTE FROM CHAKA KHAN!

Was there at my Aunty Aretha Franklin's Fune, and have been rewatching this ever since. So many of those celebrities were balling their eyes out. It was mentioned that they had to help Aunty Chaka Khan in the church, she wasn't ready to come inside. Just couldn't get herself to walk inside. She was grieving hard. So for Queen Mother Chaka Khan to even attempt to sing is a blessing in itself. Plus, she's still a legend, a great! #MissChristineChronicles

That fact that folks like Chaka & Patti even still have access to those upper chest belts so many decades later is crazy. Aretha still had access to toward her later years. These women have always, & will always be THOSE GIRLS on the mic! The best of the best.

It's not only that voice of hers, but herself as well. The way everyone was smiling was due to her wonderful beautiful smile. She just excudes charm and warmth. That's why everyone was so happy. She Lifted everyone's spirit to The Lord's.

Please tell me that I am not the only that watches this everyday. I don't care what anybody says. This was jamming! Chaka was raised Catholic so give her a break. Love you Chaka!

Wowie wow wow wow! Aretha was surely crying and smiling. Chaka, please forgive me, I know it was a spiritual event, but holy freaking crap!! Unforgettable.

The incomparable and without a shadow of a doubt Ms Chaka Khan!

Regardless of her reading the lyrics!!!! Chaka Khan DID THAT!! Take us to church Chaka and the spontaneous thing at the end I enjoyed that 👏🏾

I love this lady and she can get her lyrics from her shoe for all l care. She is a naturally great singer. She has never been anyone but herself. Respect

Aretha has been in all our lives for generations, her passing has touch us all, but its Chaka that moved us all with Grace and a voice that touched our souls....

3:28 this my favorite part “faceeee to faceeeeeeeeee” 🔥

She's so strong and sort of shy at the same time. Loved this uplifting performance for Ms. Aretha.

Yup! Well said about her and this performance!

I'm so glad Chaka still got it. I don't know what she did, but she still sounds like it was the 70s.

Wow!!! She put it Down! Instant Classic

If i could like this 1000x, on repeat.

Look at how far she puts the mic away from her mouth but still the volume of her voice doesnt change. I remember when Peter Cetera said in an interview how Chaka destroyed a microphone because of her power 😂 Chaka and Patti are the loudest of them all 😊

I'm a Filipino but I must say that American Black Music is one of the most beautiful thing that men created .It has this heavenly feelings that makes it stand out from other kinds of music and one of the reason why many races always look up to black musicians and singersss including Filipino singers and composers. Aretha will be missed! Guide us from heaven Queen of Soul ❤
