@@Dar.Nicole But they are not. They don't get musicals or movies after them like carole king or elton john! I think more and more people should know who they are and what they have contributed to our music world! So many number ones! RIP to Nick Ashford.
They are an amazing aongwriting/singer duo who just also happen to be husband and wife. But underrated and underappreciated, they are not. They have written some of the Motown era's classics that are the most celebrated of even the most celebrated catalogue of songs in popular music.
That song is a total masterpiece!.. when I first heard it in 1979 I became obsessed! The arrangement were fire!... That string section! And acourse... CHAKA!!
@@darnell49 actually she didn't. Whitney is not listed on the album credits for that song or album and Chaka stated via Facebook that she sung on her second solo album which would have been 'Naughty' on songs such as Clouds. m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10154225483491751&id=61619346750&sfnsn=mo&extid=oYDTH1UFdzIpWlXs
Liquid Light Chaka might have forgotten, but both Whitney and Cissy have said Whitney sung backup on this, which is what inspired Whitney to cover it. Whitney did session vocals for several artists as a teen without getting formal credit for it. Basically, Cissy’s name was there because she was the one getting paid.
Bro. You said you like disco? We need some Earth Wind and Fire reactions. Some of my personal favs are September, Sing a Song, Let's Groove, That's the Way of the World, Got to Get You Into My Life, Can't Hide Love, and Reasons. Just to name a few. Check em out if you haven't heard these already, because I would love to see your reaction to these. Much love bro.
46 years chaka been popping in industry still performing and recording. Yes this her most mainstream iconic song but you haven't began to scratch the surface of her library she can do it all funk jazz pop r&b soul alternative soft rock. She started with the band Rufus & chaka khan before doing her solo.
This reaction was definitely worth the wait! I'm convinced that the Fountain of Youth is sitting in Chaka's backyard because she's in her 60s now and still looks just as good as she did in this video 🔥
before Whitney, before Beyonce, before Fantasia, Mariah, all the diva's of today... there was CHAKA!!! she was IT all the fellas had the poster, pin up album insert of her on their wall. The guys know which picture I'm talkin' bout!
My mom and I jammed out to this when I was a kid. That was the first song I ever heard the electronic guitar vocals used that Roger, and Peter Frampton used.
Chaka's soulful voice and range is mind blowing. Please react to : I know you, I love you, Ain't nobody, What Cha gonna do for me , Stronger than before.
Chaka Khan is in my top two favorite female voices/ singers of all time. She definitely my favorite ole skool Diva for sure. Her voice is INSANE so it’s no surprise to me that you love the original even more. Check out her work with Rufus: “Sweet Thing”, “Tell Me Something Good”, “Hollywood”...this was a pleasant surprise glad you did this one. 🙂
JACK I LOVE YOUR REACTION TO CHAKA KHAN " IM EVERY WOMAN "!!! I 'M A 65 YR OLD MAN & MY 23 YR OLD GRANDSON REACTS TO THE DISCO ERA MUSIC AS ENTHUSIASTICALLY AS YOU DO HE EVEN ASKS ME TO TEACH HIM HOW TO DANCE DISCO SINCE I HAD WON CONTESTS IN THE LATE 1970S IN EL PASO TX. IT WAS AN ERA WHERE I WAS IN MY EARLY 20S & HAD TREASURE THAT PART OF MY LIFE...is DEFINITELY IN THE TRUNK OF MEMORIES...
So Chaka Khan's Through the Fire was sampled by Kanye for his song Through the Wire. It's a great song. Also Rufus featuring Chaka Khan Tell Me Something Good, Sweet Thing are great too. She has vocals.
Ayeeee Jack! I know this reaction is gonna be lit! Chaka is a legend for this song! You should definitely react to Through the fire by Chaka Khan. She's a vocal giant and queen!
Thank God for the disco sound !!! Makes one just wanna dance, sing and fell in love! More LOVE is what the wordl needs now 💖 thank you so much for this Jack! Peace love and stay safe 💖
Straight major Chaka hits: "Tell me something good" by Chaka and her group Rufus, "Ain't Nobody" used in the movie soundtrack for "Breakin'", "I feel for you" Prince's remake rearranged by Prince ft. Stevie Wonder on harmonica....which I believe this was added to the same movie soundtrack. They may have had this song playing in the background during a club dialogue scene....can't remember, but the two male leads from the movie are in the music video. "Through the Fire" of which Kenye West sampled to score his first major hit from. The song supposedly inspired by him surviving the accident that he had to get his jaw realigned for.
Watching your videos bring back such great memories of songs that I forgotten about songs I haven't heard in a long time just wonderful another great vid Jack,❤️
I saw Chaka in concert last year. Still great! React to “Through The Fire” and “Ain’t Nobody”. My favorite song by Chaka Khan is “I Know You, I Live You”
I loved this! I never heard the original recording, only watching Chaka on award shows perform it live in modern days. Whitney really did remake the song as it was originally. I wasn't her "rendition". I appreciate her shouting out Chaka Khan even more now and having her in the video. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Great choice and reaction.
Whitney is 15 yrs of age singing background vocals. CORRECTION, there was a story of Whitney on IEW backgrounds but the journalist has retracted story. Whitney's mother Cissy on IEW sung background w/2 other people.
Jack, I totally dig watching your reactions, watching you get your groove on. The 79's was the best era of music. I grew up with this music, Detroit, motown.
Chaka has some hits!!!!! I love and grew up listening to her. Please react to her songs "Sweet Thang", "Tell Me Something Good", and What Cha Gonna Do For Me". You won't be disappointed 😊
Lol Jack outta breath like he was the one sangin' 🤭 only Chaka Kahn done that so far...shot Jack, great review. Sing and dance like we ain't lookin' 🤣✊ PEACE
Great Reaction ! Chaka is the Original Sanger!! My favorite are the slow groves of ' Through the Fire' and MJ cover of ' Got to Be There' Please react to both!

Later on, Martha sued.) ua-cam.com/video/IKgVzWeZ4qw/v-deo.html ( Original Studio Version) Martha has one of the best voices but she is not noticed because she didn't have sex appeal.

Can you please review the studio version before reviewing the live version?
Jack if you want to see some of the greatest vocals and range that can't be touched, check out Chaka's "Got to be there, Night in tunisia, I know you I live you." There's not many women who would dare touch these songs after Chaka.
Jo Buck87 I’ve yet to see anyone recommend her. He reacts to recommendations. Great one though. Thanks for sharing. Hopefully more will suggest her. I’ll make sure to do the same! ♥️♥️♥️
Bro you got the swag. You just born in the wrong era. We tore it up at clubs when this song came on. You probably would love the disco. Why a lot of us were a lot thinner back in the day.
Chaka Khan- through the fire and ain't nobody
Omg yesssss
Chaka Khan is the ONE! One of the best to ever do it!
Chaka’s voice is the embodiment of life Her voice invokes pure joy 🎤🎼🎶❤️🙌🏾
Chaka Kahn- Keep your head up
Ain’t nobody
Sweet thing
Through the fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I requested Sweet Thing weeks ago but the Mary J Blige Version, would like to see him do both since he’s just reacted to Chaka now.
Chaka khan is my Queen!
This song is written by the legendary ASHFORD AND SIMPSON! A very underrated writing duo!
Ashford and Simpson are hardly underrated in the music world.
Yes. Please react to Solid by Ashford & Simpson.
@@Dar.Nicole But they are not. They don't get musicals or movies after them like carole king or elton john! I think more and more people should know who they are and what they have contributed to our music world! So many number ones! RIP to Nick Ashford.

Chaka khan has the pipes. She and Prince both did the song "I Feel For You". A real treat is to see these two perform together "Sweet Thang"...WOW!
That song is a total masterpiece!.. when I first heard it in 1979 I became obsessed! The arrangement were fire!... That string section!
And acourse... CHAKA!!
Whitney Houston's mother Cissy Houston is singing background vocals on this. Whitney would later sing background on Chaka's follow up album.
@Cynthia Gross she did
@@darnell49 actually she didn't.

@@deshaunx776 that's fine. But if the artist who recorded it says otherwise I'm going to stick with her version of events. 🤷🏿♂️
