Songwriting, = the Legendary Prince Rogers Nelson; rap = celebrated hip-hop pioneer Melle Mel, harmonica = the peerless Stevie Wonder, dancers = an assortment of breakdancing icons, singer= the GREAT Chaka Khan. Magical cover.

Prince’s writing, Chaka on the vocals, Stevie on the harmonica, Melly Mel rapping, and Turbo & Ozone break dancing is pure perfection 🔥🎶💃🏾🕺🏾

R.I.P. Shabba Doo & Poppin' Taco.

Fun fact, this song was originally recorded on Prince’s first album. He wrote the song, and years later Chaka recorded her own version which Prince won a Grammy at the 1985 Grammys for his writing on the project and Chaka won a Grammy for best female vocal performance that year as well

Written by Prince, Stevie on harmonica, performed by Chaka! This song was huge when it came out, you couldn’t escape it. First r&b song to incorporate hip hop!

This was actually the first time I heard an RNB diva have a rapper in her song back when this came out, This was a huge hit back then! It was her comeback!

This is a cover of a Prince song. It's her biggest hit, but not her best song by far! The harmonica is by Stevie Wonder. The rap is by Mel Melle of Grandmaster Flash.

The LEGENDARY Iconic Ms Chaka Khan ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The synth went crazy on this joint. Very intersecting cross generational influences. Killed it

Another important thing about this video was it was also a vehicle to promote Norma Kamali's fashion line. She was known for her baggy look.

I do believe this was the first r&b/hip hop collaboration. Chaka on vocals, Stevie Wonder on harmonica, Grandmaster Melle Mel did the rap. Written by Prince and produced by Arif Mardin in 1984. That was the same year Tina Turner’s Private Dancer was released. Tina pretty much swept the Grammys in all the categories she was nominated in, except Best R&B Female and Best R&B Song, which went to Chaka and I Feel For You.

Chaka is THEE GOAT..! Musically and visually she changed the game and influenced almost every singer that came after her. This song was one of her biggest and most successful. By this point in her career, she had been the most consistent and successful black female urban singer. According to billboard, during the span of ten years ( 1974-1984) she sold the most records and was consistently placing songs at the top of the charts. THis song is considered to be the first to marry R&B and rap…it went number 1 on r&b and dance and #3 pop… and won 2 Grammys in 1985.

My favorite Chaka Khan song! 🔥🔥🔥 Love the harmonica solo from Stevie Wonder. Such an iconic song💚. Great request.

STEVIE WONDER ON THE HARMONICA 🔥🔥🔥

The Genius of the LEGENDARY Iconic musical Genius Mr Prince Rogers Nelson 💙💙💙💙

Chaka one of the greatest most powerful voices in the business.

STEVIE WONDER... on that harmonic jawn!!

All the dancers from the movie “Breakin” are in this video.

I used to hear this often as a kid. The drum programming still goes hard

Chaka Stevie AND Prince!

I had to put my earbuds in and pump the volume on this one! This song is perfect. 🕺🏿

One of my favorites ❤

This song was originally on Prince's second self titled album from 1979. Stevie Wonder plays the Harmonica on Chaka's version. Melle Mel from Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five is on Chaka's version. Chaka's version came out in 1984

One of the best covers of a Prince tune. A great collab of 4 top artists and Shabba doo dancing!

Thank you Demetria for the request!!!

Much love from ny. Chaka khan i want is a feel good song and usher good kisser is a feel good song as well you will enjoy both especially the usher good kisser video

Yes this takes me back! This was a jammer 👍🏼🤩

Great request, Demetria. I love this song, this beat❤

Stevie is on the song twice... playing harmonica and his "Fingertips Part 2" was sampled at 4:19 and 4:24

Prince wrote it, and Stevie Wonder plays harmonica

Danced to this song many times while clubbing!

Chaka, Stevie, Melle Mel: nuff respect due

Prince cover, Stevie wonder on harmonica, Chaka khan. What more could one ask for?

99.99% chance if you hear harmonica on a pop song, it’s Stevie Wonder.

"Grandmaster" Melle Mel on intro, and production by Arif Mardin, with keyboards by Phillip Saisse and David Franck (from The System - who also did the main arrangements for Phil Collins' Sussudio, the following year)… ☺

A jam. 100%. Takes me back to my bros and I trying to lock.😎

Second fave Chaka song!! I'm still hoping, wishing, and praying you'll get to my request sometime soon Jack 🤞🏾🤞🏾

1984

Stevie Wonder rocking the monica’

I love this version but the original written and performed by Prince is def worth a listen/reaction too. It was a huuuuuuuge compliment/badge of honor if Prince allowed you to perform or sample one of his songs💜💜💜💜 💜

Legendary producer Arif Mardin produced this record. He accidentally hit a button which resulted in the rapid chaka-chaka-chaka-chaka, etc at the beginning of the song. So it was a happy mistake and they kept it. Prince of course wrote it as others have mentioned. If you want to hear a fire recording, look up Prince's Acoustic Demo of "I Feel For You" here on YT. Its amazing and he absolutely kills it on the acoustic guitar.

Thanks brother. I forgot about this song.

This is actually covered song and the original is by prince from his second album prince (1979)

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🔥🔥🔥

requests lately are amazing 💖💖💖💖

Yay❤❤🎉🎉thx jack

great 80s!!!!

💗

🔥🔥🔥

If you love uptempo funk 80's, then check out Mai Tai's Body & Soul, very similar to this song.

......Prince wrote this song and he re-arranged it for Chaka Khan !!!!!!!!! AND Stevie Wonder played the harmonica on this song Icons made this song !!!!

if your parents were born before the 80s, they would prob Chaka Khan's fans too. At least you have good taste listening to a classic which has won 2 Grammys And produced before whatever Apple software editing

Prince right that song

turbo and ozone from breakin the movie comb with chacka khan , lovit

💙💙💙💙👍😉

react to "higher" or "masterpiece" by SAULT, which cleo sol's band

👍👍👍👍👍👍

Welcome to the ONLY version of a Prince-written/sung song that was done better by someone else.

1984 was the height of break dancing

Written and produced by prince that's him in the intro

Chaka was never in the same room w/the dancers in her video. The dancers was a clothes commercial. It had nothing to do w/the music video.

She said she did not like this song.

Fun fact: Chaka Khan doesn't like the rap intro because, according to her, she doesn't like the reference to see. So anytime she does the song, she never includes the rap

React to Foxy Brown -“Bk Anthem”.

This Guy is fake so how can u hit like and boost him

1984
