Yvette Marie Stevens (born March 23, 1953), better known by her stage name Chaka Khan (/ˈʃɑːkəˈkɑːn/ SHAH-kə KAHN), is an American singer. Known as the "Queen of Funk", her career has spanned more than five decades beginning in the early 1970s as the lead vocalist of the funk band Rufus. With the band she recorded the notable hits "Tell Me Something Good", "Sweet Thing", "Do You Love What You Feel" and the platinum-certified "Ain't Nobody". Her debut solo album featured the number-one R&B hit "I'm Every Woman" (which became a pop hit for Whitney Houston). Khan scored another R&B charts hit with "What Cha' Gonna Do for Me" before becoming the first R&B artist to have a crossover hit featuring a rapper, with her 1984 cover of Prince's "I Feel for You". More of Khan's hits include "Through the Fire" and a 1986 collaboration with Steve Winwood that produced a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100, "Higher Love".

Khan has won ten Grammy Awards. With Rufus, she achieved three gold singles, one platinum single, four gold albums, and two platinum albums. In the course of her solo career, Khan achieved three gold singles, three gold albums, and one platinum album with I Feel for You. She has also worked with Ry Cooder, Robert Palmer, Ray Charles, Quincy Jones, Guru, Chicago, Joni Mitchell, Gladys Knight, De La Soul, Mary J. Blige and Ariana Grande. In December 2016, Billboard magazine ranked her as the 65th most successful dance club artist of all time. She was ranked at No. 17 in VH1's original list of the 100 Greatest Women of Rock & Roll. Khan has been nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame three times as a solo artist and four times as a member of Rufus featuring Chaka Khan,[7] the first time in 2012 as a member of Rufus. In 2023, Khan was picked as an inductee in the Musical Excellence category.

 

Chaka Khan Illinois állam egyik katonai támaszpontján született 1953-ban, Yvette Marie Stevens néven. Chicago külvárosában nőtt fel, tizenegy éves korában már színpadon szerepelt, megalakította a Crystalettes nevű együttesét és klubokban, mulatókban próbálgatta tehetségét. Művésznevét is tizenéves korában vette fel.

Első jelentősebb sikereit a Rufus zenekarral aratta a hetvenes évek elején. Kiemelkedő sikereket is hoztak az együtt töltött évek, kitűnő közös dalaik közül a Once You Get Started, a Do You Lou Love What I Feel, és a Sweet Thing címűek listára is kerültek.

1978-tól szólóban is bebizonyította, hogy kivételes tehetség, de a világhírnevet Prince 1984-es szerzeménye, az I Feel For You hozta meg számára. A szerzemény Angliában első, Amerikában harmadik lett a slágerlistán. Ekkor kapta első Grammy-díját a legjobb rhythm and blues énekesnőként, majd főszerepet kapott Rick Wakeman Orwell művéből, az 1984-ből készült rockoperájában.

A legjobb énekesekkel és zenészekkel dolgozott együtt a továbbiakban is, például Ry Cooderrel, Dizzy Gillespie-vel, David Bowie-val, Stevie Winwooddal, Stevie Wonderral, Frank Zappával és B.B. Kinggel, a blues királyával. Sokat köszönhetett Quincy Jones zeneszerző-producernek is, akivel több éven át együttműködött. Egyik lemezén Miles Davis trombitajátéka is hallható.

Az ő életét is megkeserítette a drog, emellett egy időben torokbántalmai miatt is pihenőre kényszerült. A kilencvenes évek második felében ismét többet hallatott magáról, 1997-ben a legnagyobb énekesek társaságában felléphetett a londoni Wembleyben Elvis Presley halálának huszadik évfordulóján rendezett gálán.
