Chaka Khan's new album "Funk This" is out and it is fabulous! It covers tunes by the likes of Prince, Joni Mitchell and Jimi Hendrix. Chaka teamed up with producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis to make "Funk This," which is being released by the Sony-distributed Burgundy Records imprint.
The album mixes originals and covers Prince's "Sign O' the Times," Mitchell's "Ladies Man," Hendrix's "Castles Made of Sand," a Rufus medley of "Pack'd My Bags" and "You Got the Love," and a duet with Michael McDonald on "You Belong to Me," which he co-wrote with Carly Simon.
Chaka also duets with Mary J. Blige on the track "Disrespectful," and she hopes "Funk This" fills what she feels has been a void since her last album, the 1998 Reprise release "Come 2 My House."
