Rapper FIRST time REACTION to Chaka Khan - Through the Fire! She is AMAZING...

[@samsonjpedroza]

BEFORE SADE, BEFORE WHITNEY, BEFORE MARIAH ... THERE WAS CHAKA KHAN ! SHE'S FIRE !!!

[@abidababida7096]

I thought Sade started around the same time as her? Sade goes back to the late 70’s no?

[@carmenwise2256]

Absolutely 💯 She is in her own league. Top tier for sure. Love her & Roberta Flack.

[@GalaxyNexus1]

Weird selection of women to compare her to...Chaka and Sade? 🤔

[@darrylmilling2747]

Chaka is a 10x Grammy Award winner and she's in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and has star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame She's a vocal beast and a Legend

[@KimbaLoveAdams]

Chaka Kahn used her own name in a rap as well. It’s called “I Feel For You”. It’s a song by her featuring Rufus who does the rapping. You should check it out.

[@cptight88]

There is no person named Rufus in Rufus. Thats the band name. The rapper in "I Feel For You" is Melle Mel of Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five.

[@whatlolawants2167]

Definitely check this one out!!!

[@laurabailey1054]

I Feel For You came out in 1984 long after she split from Rufus and the ending of Rufus and Chaka Khan.

[@annettebaldwin4605]

Absolutely amazing song

[@jillday2955]

Prince wrote "I Feel For You" and it was on his first album; it was covered by at least three other groups/artists.

[@susanworkman529]

Chaka Kahn and Rufus: "Ain't Nobody". " Tell Me Something Good" Also, from the same time frame, Stephanie Mills...."Home". "Feel the Fire". " Feel Good All Over" (these 3 songs can all be heard separately ( Home ...video from The Apollo or VeVo or from the mini outdoor concert from Singer's Summer Jam). Watching her do these songs live back to back is outstanding ( watch the entire thing as she comes back for an encore). Stephanie can sang! Both Chaka and Stephanie are the epitome of "the little are mighty". Get yourself a stereo sound system for those LP's of your dads. You need the seperate speakers for the optimum sound. Vinyl is the best for capturing the sound. Nothing else compares.

[@traciemack6168]

You do need to get a system to listen to your Dad's albums. I have a standing jigsaw puzzle date with a friend once a week. Sometimes we listen to music, sometimes no. My favorite times are when we listen his parents' albums (we're in our 60s). You can't even buy a needle from music stores, they have to be ordered online. My friend spends a lot of time cleaning the needle. Even in their sleeves the albums get dusty.

[@traciemack6168]

Tell me Something Good, is phenomenal by the way!

[@joeyryse7891]

You’ve DEFINITELY heard her! She did the song for Breakin’ … Ain’t Nobody. Chaka is so good!

[@scottNNJ]

“Ain’t Nobody” and “I Feel For You” are great sounding songs that’ll really get you moving.

[@dinaarmymom9145]

Chaka has hits, hits and more hits. Also, she has hits from the group she began her career with by the name of Rufus ft Chaka Khan. I love them and her as a solo artist. They started in the 70s.

[@wordygirlandco]

❤One of the most amazing voices ever. This is one of her more tame songs.....you gotta get in to her funky side. Tell Me Something Good with Rufus and Aint Nobody are unbelievable. I Feel For You is the song where you never forget her name

[@samsonjpedroza]

SHE ALSO DID "I'M EVERY WOMEN " IN THE 70'S ... WHITNEY COVERED IT IN THE 90'S !!!! FUN FACT !

[@mamaasaiz]

Chaka has had a huge helping of issues, but through it all, no matter how messed up she might have been, that light shined brightly. A genuine treasure.

[@Heartstrings_Skyla]

Yes finally 🙌 Chaka Kahn ❤ my favorite song is sweet thing.

[@pagemeredith4532]

I love this song! It always makes me tear up. She has an amazing voice. Another great song is "I Feel for You"

[@joeevett9007]

Chaka is one of a kind for sure.

[@shanegooding4839]

Rufus & Chaka Khan - Tell Me Something Good!😊

[@kitcatsaunders]

Chaka is the Queen of her craft ,one of my all time fav jams right here .

[@ursulabklyn_mia6148]

You should react to the live version of Chaka Khan and Rufus - Tell me something Good. She was known at the Queen of Funk. In the early 1970s she was the lead vocalist of the funk band Rufus. Try to stop your eyes from popping out and your jaw from dropping when you see her performing at 20 or younger.

[@Mvtobebo]

I can't believe I remember every word! It's great going back to my teens with you! It's surprising when I realize I actually did pay attention to the words of so many songs. Thanks bp!

[@Fox1gal]

She was welcomed especially when she preformed on Okinawa Japan! Grateful too see her live!

[@melissagrover9727]

I had the fortune to see her in Concert at the Hollywood racetrack in 84’ she is amazing. Actually one of the best vocals I’ve heard live. She was hair raising sensational in concert. Actually saw her with Wham! (George Michael) Make it Big Tour and also Katrina and the Waves. Set me up to think every concert was going to be better than the radio. Sat two rows back from Vanessa Williams right after she became the first African American Miss America.

[@danrumble74]

"I Feel For You" is 🔥🔥🔥

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

Taylor Dane is another FANTASTIC arist to check out. Tell it To My Heart, Prove Your Love, and Love Willow Lead Back are ALL amazing and worth a listen. You will LOVE her.

[@brigid4815]

Two words…Ain’t Nobody. It’s a must listen

[@myntami]

Hey, I'm married. My husband and I share our thoughts on attractive people all the time! Nothing wrong with appreciating the beauty God has created in our other humans. As long as you remember where your heart lies. No guilt Black P God's art is beautiful in all forms. ❤

[@brucetromblee3145]

Beautiful, talented and a tremendous soul in Chaka

[@fanaticexpert7916]

Her voice is on a different level

[@unkeymoo]

My favorite Chaka song!

[@TheDivayenta]

We ALL are in love with Miss Chaka. This great song was written and produced by musical genius, David Foster. He also wrote After the Love Has Gone for Earth Wind and Fire.

[@dja_]

Another David Foster's incredible production. What a great song, what a great singer!

[@rmlrl1971]

I saw her in concert in 1986 at a small venue in Cohasset Massachusetts. It was a great show, with one minor problem, she was not just high on life. She was taken off the stage for a bit, then came back and continued where she left off.

[@teriwilkinson7816]

I have always loved her.❤❤❤

[@halcyonpoet]

Her voice is so amazing! Definitely need to hear her singing "Ain't Nobody", "Papillion", "I Feel For You" and her cover of "Diamonds Are Forever"!

[@carolcampbell9019]

Great choice 👌 Chaka is one of the greatest Divas. GOAT 😅

[@kimcutts6153]

🇬🇧 Chaka Kahn was everywhere in the 80s. "I Feel For You" ft Rufus.... "Aint Nobody" ❤🎼🎶👌

[@sandyshoenberger2697]

Love Chaka Kahn my favorite is Do You Love Me Still. Great reaction, thank you.

[@Jude_196]

LOVES ME SOME CHAKA KHAN!!! :) THANKS, BP!!! Loved her songs with RUFUS!! SO, SO GOOD!!! Tell Me Something Good, Sweet Think, Once You Get Started...and, solo: I Feel For You, Ain't Nobody, I'm Every Woman.....ALL FIRE!!! :)

[@frannicole74]

She has an amazing catalog that you should really dive into!! Her vocals are crazy! I’m every woman, everlasting love, Hollywood, I feel you I know you, love the one your with , maybe your baby, tell me something good, Sweet Thing …I could go on!

[@The80sCat]

I had a friend that was a jazz vocalist. He turned me on to Chaka. She is a true talent. You picked one of her best vocally, but she has some really funky stuff too.

[@abidababida7096]

She was a big star back in the 80’s. She’s an O.D. (original Diva!)

[@karensamuel1139]

Pegasus dear, there's no need to feel guilty, nothing is wrong with recognizing and admitting that someone is beautiful! Chaka is truly beautiful and she really has an amazing voice! That's my girl 👍 😁

[@Jane-d4w]

Tell Me Something Good and I'm Every Woman ❤. Chaka rules.

[@laneykehel5057]

One of the most fun videos is Chaka Khan - I Feel for You. Prince wrote it but Chaka Khan made it her own. She also sang with Steve Winwood in Higher Love and is in the video.

[@DinoNardelli]

Awesome 80s song...Dave Foster is a frickin genius!

[@monicarichards1473]

Thanks for the reaction. I'm gonna have to lambaster you again😂😂😂. That Steve winwood song with Chaka she was not in the video but dropped a quick background track for the audio part near the end. I believe the story went that she was recording somewhere in the studio where he was recording and was a fan so he asked her if she would add. Something to the song and that's what she added. I'm almost certainly shouldn't was uncredited. But as you know, her voice is recognizable. So people recognize that right away. Same thing with Patty Labelle and the song. "I wanna know what love is". At the end part with the choir, that's her voice in the doing those high notes, but she's not in the video. And I believe she's uncredited as well, but Patti voice is very distintced so people picked it up and like Chaka it was very common back then to do that when you were a small artist back in the 80's. Without getting credit.

[@The80sCat]

She is in the video, Winwood is standing behind her. Reactors mistake her for Tina Turner.

[@Mark-rw9gw]

A beautiful woman, with powerful pipes.

[@freddyhill8632]

Check out her POWER Ballad with Peter Cetera, " Feels Like Heaven"

[@cynthiawilliams2632]

I grew up in the 60's and 70's best music ever was made then

[@lynnborkowski417]

In my top 2 top songs ever. I love her so much

[@lydmarl.475]

Omg just love your facial expressions, priceless!!!

[@redrum482]

I was 15 when this came out. Best High School slow dance song ever.

[@introvert_7742]

This one is in my playlist for a long long time. Greetings from Malaysia 🇲🇾

[@HoneyBee03272]

One of my favorite songs ❤️

[@tomfurci3701]

No guilt here, BP! It's Chaka Khan! David Foster co wrote this track with her in mind, and then produced it for her. I know others have covered it, but this is the version that still gives me goosebumps. And adds tears to my eyes.

[@JimSteele-ck5vu]

Love me some Chaka Khan

[@jonnajois]

"I FEEL FOR YOU" is fantastic!

[@aresee2003]

Chaka appears in the video because she sings backup on the track for "Higher Love"........u can hear her in the background

[@helgar791]

The amazing Ms. Lips and Hips, Chaka Khan. Try her doing her big collaborative hit "I Feel For You", the seminal "I'm Every Woman", and her hits with Rufus "Any Love" and "Ain't Nobody".

[@mariaportengen2959]

Shaka is great. That voice. I can also recommend her song with the band Rufus. It's called : "Once you get started". Such a great rhythm. 🎶🎶🎶🙋‍♀️👍

[@WineSippingCowboy]

Produced by David Foster. Written by him, the late Cynthia Weil and Tom Keane. This is the original release. 40 years 🎂. Great 👍 1980s song 🎵. This was released in the same year as I Feel for You, which is from the album of the same name. Covers in The Philippines 🇵🇭. David Foster performed this song 🎵 with Morissette Amon in March 2023. Gigi de Lana sang this also. 5:52. Production. David Foster was also producing Chicago and the late Kenny Rogers in the same year. Suggested videos 📹: 1 Chaka Khan sings Ain't Nobody live. 2 Robert Palmer and Chaka Khan sing Addicted to Love. 3 Chicago performs You're the Inspiration. 4 The Tubes perform She's a Beauty. 5 Kenny Rogers sings Crazy.

[@SamaraS1970]

OMG you need to check out Peter Cetera and Chaka Khan Feels Like Heaven!!! Peter Cetera was with the group Chicago in case you didn't know and I love this song that you just reacted! to

[@miyukij5040]

Yes one of my favorite

[@SamaraS1970]

@miyukij5040 mine too 😁

[@JDKDetroit]

Chaka khan i feel for you was a prince song off of his 70s album she re recorded it later her and prince were friends Chaka Khan is also a icon original band was Rufus and Chaka Khan started in the 70s

[@donnamcmanus7360]

My favorite "diva"❤

[@carriemichelle322]

Old school...❤ You should definitely react to****Lisa Fischer Live In Japan singing How Can I Ease the Pain. Lisa sang back up for The Rolling Stones. Her voice will BLOW YOUR MIND!!!!

[@user-oh6jv5px7r]

...and she sang back up for Luther Vandross too - love Lisa Fischer!

[@jessicacoleman4673]

I love this song so 💜

[@billkeithchannel]

_I Feel For You_ was the song I got hooked on in the fall of 1984. Charting high it saved their recording contract with Arista Records who was going to drop them if they didn't come up with a hit song and sell some albums. Up until then they had a niche following.

[@brucetromblee3145]

The Voice to crush on

[@reidawilliams9375]

Rufus is the band that she started in. Chaka is so amazing. Go down that rabbit hole, you won’t be sorry

[@theadviser123]

Don't worry about admiring women and speaking it out loud. It's human nature to be attracted to many others, not just the one we're with. I just think it's refreshing that you're not afraid to speak it even though you are married. Even though it could get you in trouble. You just speak your thoughts. Which I like. I would have to say this is her best song. But she's very talented and has an incredible voice.

[@DarlingNikki65]

Chaka has many hits with Rufus and as a solo artist. She is a force to be reckoned with! Here are just a few you should check out... Tell Me Something Good, I'm Every Woman, (the Prince Penned song) I Feel For You and Ain't Nobody, just to name a few.

[@YachtMaestro]

Even tho she came nearly a decade later, this song always reminds me of Brenda Russell's "Piano in the Dark"

[@phill1537]

Must listen to is ‘Do You Love Me Still’ which is lesser known, but an old favorite is ‘Please Pardon Me’.

[@videovoryer]

CHAKA KHAN was in band called RUFUS before she went solo

[@zanohoriamazo1]

She sweet sticky thick & pretty! You should see a pic of her that was also a poster, she’s in a brown leather native Indian regalia, sitting on a couch that’s a replica of lips, & in all her 20’s glory. Her rhythmic style & placement of phrasing, in addition to her vocal power, has earned her the nickname of ‘Queen Of Funk’. I Feel Fo You featured rap o.g. Melle Mel of Grandmaster Flash & Furious 5 fame. It is Melle Mel that Whitney is quoting when she repeats Chaka’s name towards the end of the I’m Every Woman cover track, which Chaka had done over 10 yrs before Whitney’s version. She even had a video of herself superimposed several times to invoke the theme. This was of course some years before the video craze really took off with t.v. channels totally dedicated to them. Other Chaka Ain’t Nobody; Watcha Gonna Do For Me; I Know You, I Live You. Further back to the ‘70’s with the band Rufus: Tell Me Something Good (written by Stevie); Once You Get Started; Yu’ve Got the Love (funk jam). She also did a cover of Michael Jackson’s Got to be There. 👍🏾🎶

[@1313Mockingbirdlaen]

More Chaka!!!! Pleeeease!

[@williambellew767]

I had a crush on her when I was a young teenager. She was a beautiful woman.

[@alejandrobojorquez6181]

There are Underrated 80s & 90's artists with Millions & Millions of views that Nobody seems to want to react to, how's that possible? You should react to those artist too they're FANTASTIC and AMAZING!

[@Anna-h3t2h]

I saw her several years ago in prospect park in Brooklyn ny..her voice was the same at 60.

[@caveman7490]

Masterpiece 🔥

[@kims.schinkel8212]

Don't feel bad, dear: I didn't know until you said so about her being in Steve Winwood's video. Now I'm just GONNA have to check it out!

[@angelajakem366]

You need to listen to "Feels Like Heaven" Its a duet featuring Chaka Kahn & Peter Cetera. Its an amazing song and their voices fit perfecty together. You will love it like the rest of us.

[@JonMiller-lg3yi]

Chaka and Peter cetera duet will blow you away bro

[@jamesrobbison]

LOL I used to work with a brutha back in the late 70's that actually snuck back stage at one of her concerts and walked into her dressing room and kissed her! Brutha Danny if you still out there you da man! 🤣Hey check out her song "Fool's Paradise" You won't be disappointed. Thanks for doin' the reaction bruh!

[@MyGuy18]

Would love to see you react to "All for One Rap-Daddyphatsnaps(DPS)". I think you'll truly appreciate the boogeyman of the nerdcore community.

[@BlackPegasusRaps]

thank you so much for the extra support! No promises but this is definitely a possibility. Much love and I appreciate you 🙏🏽

[@MyGuy18]

@BlackPegasusRaps no problem. Find the channel and reactions last year. Been loving the content. So just wanted to finally support more and maybe get a reaction i think yall love. Keep up the great work man.

[@bboeghus4475]

About time! :)

[@LaPinturaBella]

Oh Pegasus, there is no need to feel guilty about recognizing beauty when you see it. You're married, not blind. She IS fine. It's just a fact. 😊

[@karensamuel1139]

I like that 👍 😊

[@marilynk30]

Ain't nobody is my favorite by her! ❤

Ditto 💯💯💜

[@barbaramorant6673]

Listen to " Tell Me Something Good ",the video. ❤❤❤

[@michaelasay8587]

Well get goin with Chaka!!😢😢😢😢

[@mikepiccione886]

You didn't get off subject you're right on subject let's have you listen to those records ❤😊

[@catiekins]

I have no idea why, but this made me think you should check out Garbage and Screaming Females covering Because the Night. I mean, it makes no sense...but it happened 😂

[@mimigina7439]

Wish I could hear you sing some R & B. Your voice is perfect for it. Waiting on it 😊❤

[@jkmarshall3553]

Chaka Khan = Solid! Amazing! You should check out her with Rufus "ain't nobody".

[@TerriChaffin-m4l]

One of my high school jams to that puppy love 💕 😂

[@antiatrevino1130]

I Feel For You is a must!!

[@VaqueroVulcan]

Kanye asked permission from Chaka Khan to use this song and she said yes cause she thought there’s no way he can mess it up cause she would be singing and her own words but he found a way lol , I believe Kanye just loved the song and Chaka khans music and it meant a lot to him that’s why he sampled it like he did

[@benbutters7315]

Foster, Keane, Weill (sorely missed) magic writers

[@lisamorris3440]

You've gotta do "Ain't Nobody" if you want to get a real Chaka Khan vibe. That song never gets old!

[@laurasutherland8928]

No one like Chaka Khan!!!❤❤

[@susanpoyant9954]

You should look into the 70's band TAVARES, especially their hit song "Heaven Must be Missing an Angel". They also did an excellent cover of the BeeGee's "More than a Woman".

[@Billy83G]

Look up her song ain’t nobody, absolute classic

[@marsanchez2500]

You wanna hear a woman with Soul and Power in her voice , you need to listen to Taylor Dayne Love Will Lead You Back, I’ll Always Love You, and Tell It To My Heart are must listens
