The fact that she has made music for over 5 decades and she can still release new music that sounds fresh without following today's trends at all is incredible.. real legend status

[@davidmcmannis2013]

Federico Ariel Sánchez 70s 80s 90s 00s 10s legendary Queen of Funk!

[@SmartRobot-wc2fb]

Or following today's trends without loosing her own artistic identity...that's what Chaka Khan has always craved for...

[@dimitrisspan276]

ABSOLUTELY YES MY FRIEND!!!! THE LEGENDARY MISS CHAKA KHAN IS A MUSIC GENIOUS AND ALWAYS ON THE FRONT!!! HER VOICE IS A SUMMER BREEZE TO OUR EYES FROM ALL THE MUSIC TRASHES WE HEAR IN THE TODAY RADIO!!!

[@MGillDesign]

The only other artist I knew that could do that was Marvin Gaye. They are chameleons and can adapt to any style or form. Instead of fading out.

[@garfieldharrison510]

She doesn't have too. The trends have to follow her. Talent is real.

[@brendabrenda4741]

Heard this while shopping at a Ross store thought it was a banging song so I Shazamed it. Shocked and delighted to find out it was a Chaka Khan from 2019. Now it's in my 2023 rotation on lock!

Stylish 80's funk is back in music !! I applaud to that great thick 80's synth bass and of course to Chaka's performance. Well done music and Chaka looks gorgeous !!

[@kevgamble]

That "thick 80's synth bass" is the marvelous bass guitarist Sam Wilkes on his Fender Precision bass. He's dynamite. For another terrific sample of his work (and video of him playing), look up the video for "Thnking (Live Sesh)" by Louis Cole.

[@popland1977]

Wow. I've been waiting over a decade for a new Chaka album and this is such a well produced exciting lead single. The video is interesting, original and of high quality. I love the throwback to the 1970s, an era where Chaka ruled the stage, The song is also a great mix of classic Chaka and a fresh modern vibe. Overall this is very impressive

Wow! That producer is a genius, bringing Chaka Khan straight from the 70ies to 2019 without sounding or looking fake or outdated. What a groove (is that Native Instruments/Scarbees sampled Music Man Bass?), what a video. The kids won't probably even remember what a phone booth is ...

[@esotericed8736]

When I heard this on Spotify I thought it was a song from the 80's or something, I was like "how have I not heard this before" then when I Googled 'Chaka Khan' I saw it was released last month I was like "woah, excellent funk music is still being made in 2019?, that's amazing". This song is so much better than all the other pop songs out at the moment. Love Chaka!.

Modern production maybe but not in the same league as the 70s and 80s. This could do with stripping back and letting the song breathe.

Ever notice how Chaka never fails to produce and record songs that physically force you to shift your feet or start grooving? That's a talent. Love Chaka!

[@johnnyatab]

Glad she didn't sell out and continues to make quality music.

[@ravenaider]

She works for the Church of Scientology

[@jdoyll1]

I don't know what is the kind of "sellout" you mean. She just does what she knows and what we know from her. She doesn't write or compose anything. Her previous hits were written by Prince, and nowadays she works with the producer of MIA, Major Lazer, and there were 6 different writers on this particular song, she release nice stuff, but seriously, there is so much money on those productions it would be a shame if it was crap. She always have huge team producing songs for her.

Thanks for bringin' this vibe back, Chaka! Chic dropped a new album; Change dropped a new album; Inner City has a new(ish) killer track, and now, Chaka is giving something hot to those of us who've been missing the great "old school" sounds perfect for the dance floor. Now if only the DJs will consider that even young dancers might be tired of this hazy, anonymous electric dance music I think there might be a much needed revival of sorts in the dance clubs. I do not know what the current trend is called if it even has a name; I only know I've heard it on the dance floor and it lacks excitement, lacks identity, and lacks melody. It don't POP! People just dancin' with their cell phones nowadays. Haven't heard a dance track I instantly fell in love with for too long. I see from these comments a lot of people love the "old school"; just remember, if we want it back we gotta support it by buyin' it and sayin' "Hey Mr. DJ, could you skip The Chain Smokers or whatever and play something that REALLY smokes?"

[@veronicaalleyne]

I think you should go much more early to mid 1980s with your music. But I like this '70s inspired music too so I am telling all the people that I know to listen to it. I just believe that with an early to mid 1980s style your songs would get played on the Radio all over the world. Please we just need good music in the mainstream. P.S. Your voice is so beautiful, there should be more of it and less beat. Like in 'Ain't Nobody'.
