Product Description
FUNK THIS embodies the essence of Chaka's fiery approach to music, bringing together a selection of her own compositions and collaborations with fresh readings of classic tunes originated by longtime musical pal Prince (Sign O The Times), one of Chaka's musical heroines Joni Mitchell ("Ladies' Man") and Jimi Hendrix ("Castles Made Of Sand") There's a brilliant revisit of two Rufus classics – "Pack'd My Bags," and "You Got The Love"– fused into an unforgettable medley and for good measure, "Disrespectful," a hardcore duet with superstar Mary J. Blige.
"The album's called FUNK THIS because it's funky!" Chaka grins, when asked how she came up with the title and concept for the CD, her first for Burgundy Records. As David Nathan of Soul Music.com says, "With the masterful production of Jam & Lewis, FUNK THIS gives the dynamic singer an opportunity to do what she does best: whether revealing her own recent journey through the words of "Super Life" or adding her stamp to the turgid 1969 soul classic "Foolish Fool" (originally recorded by Dee Dee Warwick), the album presents the diversity of Chaka Khan, from the poetic ("Angel") to the revelatory ("Will You Love Me?")."
