"Ain't Nobody" is a song by American funk band Rufus and American singer Chaka Khan. It was released on November 4, 1983, as one of four studio tracks included on their live album Stompin' at the Savoy (1983). "Ain't Nobody" quickly gathered popularity, and reached number one on the US Billboard R&B chart and number 22 on the US Billboard Hot 100.[1] It has become one of Khan's signature songs.
Rufus keyboardist David "Hawk" Wolinski wrote the song around a repeating synthesizer loop backed by a Linn LM-1 drum computer; however, John "JR" Robinson, the band's drummer, played real drums for the recording session. The band did a democratic vote and they decided to include the song in their album repertoire. Once the song was recorded, Warner executives wanted to issue another song as the album's first single.[citation needed] Wolinski threatened to give the song to American singer Michael Jackson and American producer Quincy Jones for Jackson's album Thriller if the song was not the lead-off single. The label relented and "Ain't Nobody" was issued and hit number one on the R&B chart for the week ending October 15, 1983.[2]
The song was included on the soundtrack album to the 1984 film Breakin'.[3] In 2021, "Ain't Nobody" was ranked number 403 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.[4] The song was adopted in the United Kingdom by fans of some of the country's football clubs, with the words: Ain't nobody loves (player), makes me happy, makes me feel this way

She's won ten Grammys. She is an absolute legend.

[@EmpressReacts]

🔥🔥

[@kylecompton3305]

One of the most perfect R&B/Pop songs ever recorded. She is an artist of the century. Stevie Wonder would come and listen to her recording in the studio because he admired her voice.

[@EmpressReacts]

Oh wow‼️

[@markr.devereux3385]

This song has a great vibe . Gotta love the 80s. Made it into BREAKIN the movie. always associate it with better times in my life.

[@angelajacoba]

My favorite soul song ever..

[@DanCrowleyNYC]

This song NEVER goes out of style. Every time I play this at my bar, even almost 40 years after the song came out, everyone is grooving and moving. Even the younger generation seems to love it. That groove, her voice and the hook are timeless!

[@EmpressReacts]

🔥🔥

[@suemarie6676]

Yea baby!!!!! My fave Chaka song!!!

[@Marc-zi5cq]

Timeless fire bop! People danced to it in the 80s, people dance to it today, people will dance to it in 20 years. They did that!

[@reginald9788]

One of R&Bs Funkiest Tunes Ever!!!

[@bronsted123]

One of the great R&B bands of all time bridging sounds from the sixties and seventies and paving the way for the 80s. Tight, tight instrumentals lay the foundation for Chaka to riff like no one else can.

[@christopherpaxon4422]

Born in 83... I'll argue that it was the best music ever made

[@EmpressReacts]

🔥🔥💯

[@soakedbearrd]

For sure. I was born in 1978 so I was about 5 but I always remember the early 80's, rich memories.

[@timgrady4630]

Complete masterpiece . Funk all timer ...blesses us .

[@j.c6204]

Chaka Khan. Yes 🙌

[@winslow551]

Ain't nobody can sing like Chaka Khan, try as they do. Magic!

[@justinevans481]

Two words , Talented, Beautiful xx

[@tevenson79]

that pronunciation and inflection is why shes one of my favs like anita baker, she uses her voice like an instrument and makes amazing sounds

[@WineSippingCowboy]

Chaka Khan is a soul legend! 👩‍🎤 She is a friend of the late Aretha Franklin and Patti Labelle. CK influenced the late Whitney Houston. The improv, the belts! 🤯 Strongly suggested videos 💪 1 I Feel for You. Written by Prince. Harmonica sample of Stevie Wonder. Rap by Melle Mel. 2. Steve Winwood sings Higher Love. Cover: Jessie J. She won The Singer in China! This is 1 of the covers Jessie J sang.🏆

[@dominic6283]

They used to play this on the radio all the time when I was a kid growing up in Brooklyn

[@yaya7594]

Iconic song My teenager years dancing breakdance 😍😅

[@darrenkane2109]

This song and "I Feel For You" are my absolute Chaka faves 🔥 You're right, her inflection and enunciation are a big part of what makes her so iconic, especially on this song

[@michaelasay8587]

How bout.,Through the fire?!! That's my fav!

[@Hollingsworth2781]

one of my all time favorite pop r and b guns. the arrangement is outrageous and chaka's delivery is amazing. she was such a great singer.

[@darnell49]

CLASSIC ‼️Mixes r&b, hip hop & rock. Queen Chaka, one of a kind. This always reminds me of the scene in Breakin. Think that Chaka had already departed Rufus but due to a contract she had to do another song with them.

[@markr.devereux3385]

My reaction exactly. Wow cheers

[@futuregenerationz]

I just saw a youtube of her with Rufus last night live on 'midnight special soul' something like that. Damn that band was tight.

[@Kaia6485]

Finally!! I know you love 70s and 80s music and have been waiting for the patreons to request Chaka Khan/Rufus. Their music is up there with the best, especially this song.

[@diannabennett1769]

Been on my playlist along with Tell Me Something Good & I'm Every Woman❤❤❤

Amazing Chaka Khan & Rufus and this song "Ain't Nobody" all are brilliant, no more words needed. I would like you to check out this video Lillie McCloud "Ain't Nobody" from The X Factor USA 2013, just brilliant kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnrbhJt8idaCldk

[@Docmananoff]

If you aren’t doing it already…you need to look into doing voiceover work. You can get paid just for talking. 💯

[@EmpressReacts]

Thanks!

[@devyhnwiggins5589]

Whos is playing that guitar riff ..... the hearing of it sounded like jimi hendrix playing even though jimmi was long dead when this came out

[@EmpressReacts]
