This was before she had a actually long convo with him after his mother died and she found out why he used the song….she as ok with it after that l….was his moms favorite song
FINALLY: . Someone with a sensible comment .... And of course this person would find and post THIS clip as apose to explaining what you just did ... 🥴 People always want to comment on things THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT .... THANK YOU 🙏🏾
You don't need to hear that someone's mother died to appreciate how they used your song and flipped it to claim triumph through tragedy. Mouth wired shut, decides on a song called through the wire. She just never listened to the lyrics. Judgement without listening and understanding is a no no to proper musicians
It’s not Bruh, he got permission. So it’s his song now, he didn’t make “Through the fire” he mad “Through the wire” a much bigger and more beloved song than you are giving it credit for. Also, Kanye introduced millions to her music.
@@roxlife8173 Kanye is my favorite artist, he has made some of my favorite music. Chaka Khan can be upset. She has the right to feel whatever emotion she wants. Again, she made that song, so she may feel a bit more attached to it, than any of us could imagine. I guess an understanding and a non existent need to control human emotions or how people should feel, is why I said. I understand. I don’t see how “it’s not” or where that fits in. But I get what you mean regarding Kanye putting people on to music in general and her initial song, but that doesn’t mean she just can’t feel any type of way. She can.
You don't know shit about Chaka Khan though and everything her music represented and how it had an impact. She was 100% right. His abuse of it was an insult.
@@mspinkyteeits actually pretty artistic id say. It captured his situation pretty well. It wasnt really a calm clear sad happy whatever emotion. It was frantic and i think the use of the sample captured that
If I was Chaka Khan and I seen the premise and thought behind the song itself? I would’ve gave him the OK! The man was in a car accident and felt your vocals and sound was perfect for what he was going through.. and the song went platinum!.. Annd he made sure you got a piece of the pie .. Chaka sit down..
I mean if you think from her POV: you make an amazing song but someone samples it to make it sound like a chipmunk Still an amazing sample and song from Kanye
It's a shame she doesn't understand the concept of samples, just because kanye changed the pitch of her voice, she sounds just like a short-minded person to be honest...
Chaka is an old school talent, she's got one of the most powerful soulful voices ever. No need for pitch correction and all that other crap they do now, her voice is perfection just as it is.
I’m sorry girl but get your head out of your ass, he was paying you huge respect by sampling your music. Through the wire is one of Kanye’s best songs of all time.
Honestly, when we all hear that song and her part we know it's her and she sounds amazing period and even in the chipmunk voice which is hard to do. I always thought she was apart of the song and it was fire. He meant no disrespect and Kanye's song was fire 🔥 period. Chaka your voice is so sultry, savory and amazing 💯 Beautiful blessings 🕊️🕊️🕊️
exactly . thats exactly what he did and I love through the wire but I think he mislead her by saying I want to use the chorus but not telling her how he was gonna alter her voice had he told her that she probably wouldve said no.
Lady Khan, you changed that song at Aretha Franklin's funeral service, remember? And it was so memorable that even now I can hear your unique delivery of: "Goin Up Yonder!" I loved it
I mean. I get why she doesn't like it. If you have heard her sing that- wow! She can more than sing. Even though I do like Kanye s song, I get her issue with it.
It's weird how every celebrity is supposed to be some kind of automatic robot who loves everything and speaks well of everyone. She hates the song, that's her opinion, she's entitled to it. I'm glad she's comfortable enough in herself to be honest about it.
Respectfully, once a song is released, it isn't so much the artist's song anymore - it belongs to everyone who internalises it. Music becomes bigger than the artist when listened to. Not to say she isn't allowed to feel this way but equally, are we putting 2 and 2 together to make 5 here?
Chaka a real Diva if you noticed she dont do duets and things like and yeah she gotta right to her opinion...Prince was the same way let someone had altered Prince voice he prob woulda went the fucc off too lol
We wouldnt know her if it wasnt for him this song wouldve ended with her generation if kanyes artistic ability didn't find a way to make it relevant to this day people are bumping this song 2024
Cheques not big enough, if song not written by Khan... And new song went to a bigger market, found new eardrums. Hard to impress new eardrums... The Chipmunks took it aweeeiii

bet she wasnt mad at that check though.
I know right… she’s a whole mess and she knows that Ye got permission from her… he even give her big ups at the end of the song…
@@inspiredwithin365 not only that she performed the song with him. That check wasn’t an insult.
@@DJ-pl4cxI mean she probably got paid so that's why she did it.
@@inspiredwithin365 he messed it up period point blank
Yh she hates the song but when she performed the song with ye she messed that completely up so she can't talk really
Despite her opinion I think Kanye put his heart and soul into it.
Realmente ficou muito bom 😊
Especially the song's backstory, Kanye truly dedicated it.
Yea. She's from that old generation before sampling existed
His soul is demonic
@@tinasnow_How is it demonic?
Dear Chaka, he didn't freak it up. It brought me back to your music. Take the blessings how they come, not how you think they should come.
ooohhhh you actually made a great point! I gotta agree with you. 💯
Money is not all.
I'd sayyy...
@@linettejenkins8600 true so she didn’t have to approve the song
Facts ‼️
This was before she had a actually long convo with him after his mother died and she found out why he used the song….she as ok with it after that l….was his moms favorite song
FINALLY: . Someone with a sensible comment .... And of course this person would find and post THIS clip as apose to explaining what you just did ... 🥴
People always want to comment on things THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ....
THANK YOU 🙏🏾

She just never listened to the lyrics.
Judgement without listening and understanding is a no no to proper musicians
Because his mother loves Chaka Khan
I understand. Not everyone likes the chipmunkification that some samples do.
I’m over that sound. Its ollllldddddd. Overdone. Washed. Drained. Depleted.
@@Infoskucard bro we’re talking about a song from like 2004
That chipmunk thing is what makes the song so nostalgic to me@@tylerolson3261
She's allowed to have her opinion.
Nope
well she performed the track with kanye at the 2004 VMA's and they seemed all good back then (when the track was making money)
@@Alexshmalexxit’s her vocals so yeah
As fans, so are we
💯💯💯💯
I feel why she’d be upset, she’s an artist and she’s sensitive about her shit. That’s her creation, can’t be mad at it.
It’s not Bruh, he got permission. So it’s his song now, he didn’t make “Through the fire” he mad “Through the wire” a much bigger and more beloved song than you are giving it credit for.

@@jneilgibson6764 You you’re right, I still personally feel like this is a bit unnecessary but I get your point.
@@roxlife8173the thing is Kanye would be the type of person to not like someone doing something to his song after he gave them permission too lol
@@117Awesome Kanye nowdays is a very different Kanye to the old one.
It’s her song, she’s allowed to not like it
Exactly! Is that a crime these days?!
It’s not, it’s Kanye’s song. He just sampled her.
@@roxlife8173yes so he’s using her voice from her song 🤦🏽♂️
@@Matty_Ice12 My dude do you not know how samples work?
If I make a 5 min song with a 30 second sample from you, it’s still my songs.
@@roxlife8173 that’s why he asked her to use it and she gets paid for him using her voice
she was offended he altered her voice. is that not valid?
She sounded like chimpmunk I’d be mad too
exactly . I completely understand that. he shouldve at least told her how he was gonna use the chorus instead of just saying I want to use the chorus.
@@jgibson8092 she literally said preformed with Kanye in 2004 and said the song was good and that Kanye was sweet but now she’s fake and switching up
I love Chaka’s HONESTY
Old people don't play😆😆😆
Facts, gotta let him cook tho
She is one of the great divas of the latter 20th century. She is wholly entitled to loathe what was done with her art.
Bro that song is amazing he definitely did not mess that up
She didn't say he messed it up. She said he freaked it up.
@@kobiecamp1134 what’s the difference exactly?
@@JbFrm253 I'm being sarcastic.
@@kobiecamp1134 oh I’m sorry
You don't know shit about Chaka Khan though and everything her music represented and how it had an impact. She was 100% right. His abuse of it was an insult.
Trust me mamas he did something so artistic and unique you can’t even believe it
I think she knows what she's talking about.
No he did not. Not if you love real music. He speed it up how artistic is that.
@@mspinkyteeits actually pretty artistic id say. It captured his situation pretty well. It wasnt really a calm clear sad happy whatever emotion. It was frantic and i think the use of the sample captured that
She hated the Melle Mel rap on "I feel for you" too. She needs to be involved in more things she hates.
He probably befriended her son just to maneuver to get the rights to f*ck up that chorus! It is horrible.
The song was a classic and won a Grammy ❤ ppl can never be satisfied 🤦🏾♀️
Her voice has won grammies. Her voice is enough. He did not have to speed it up and distort, her voice.
@@mspinkyteethe voice wouldnt fit the tempo at nirmal speed
@@mspinkyteeif you actually listen to the song her voice hits hard sped up
@@mspinkytee It's to focus on the message of the rap.
Damn Chaka.....the man spit the verses with his mouth wired....thru the fire....a genius remake "thru the wire"
But it did introduce another generation to _Through the wire_
Thru the fire****
I didn't like it either baby these folks are slaughtering the greatest music ever
That song is one of my motivation go to song. I think he brought the young generation to the original song
I love it! How he did that he rocked it🎉🎉🎉
The Woman is Fabulous!!
Period.
Come on CHAKA. You are a icon , ain't nothing fucking up your legacy,
And that massive check you recieved ain't going to hurt either 🤔
😂😂😂
If I was Chaka Khan and I seen the premise and thought behind the song itself? I would’ve gave him the OK! The man was in a car accident and felt your vocals and sound was perfect for what he was going through.. and the song went platinum!.. Annd he made sure you got a piece of the pie .. Chaka sit down..
His version is only one I listen to low key 😂
I still don't know if she has made up her mind or what, she was shown saying something different every time she was asked about it
Maybe she was just getting bored with these interviewers asking her about Kanye and decided to fuck w all of us lol
Honestly before Katt she keeps it all the way ❤
Please forgive him Chaka. He flipped that chorus so well that he deserves some commendation especially from you.
She did.
I mean if you think from her POV: you make an amazing song but someone samples it to make it sound like a chipmunk
Still an amazing sample and song from Kanye
This is an old interview because she changed her view on that song later on and I saw it.
I respect her opinion but that song is a classic😂😂😂
She sooooo worried about her voice that she ain't even realize that he recorded the song with his mouth wired shut
Love the original and Kanye's version ❤
It's a shame she doesn't understand the concept of samples, just because kanye changed the pitch of her voice, she sounds just like a short-minded person to be honest...
Chaka is an old school talent, she's got one of the most powerful soulful voices ever. No need for pitch correction and all that other crap they do now, her voice is perfection just as it is.
That's because she is 🙄
@@lavenderbee3611lies. she screams how is that singing
@@kennettabradford6566she's not yoko ono idiot 🙄
I've always heard that Chaka khan never likes anyone doing her music
She trippin Kanye did his thang
I’m sorry girl but get your head out of your ass, he was paying you huge respect by sampling your music. Through the wire is one of Kanye’s best songs of all time.
But it sounded good. That’s futuristic music
She still managed to perform the song with him at the VMA some how 😅
Lol Chaka Khan never holds back from saying how she feels about something!!!
This breaks my heart.
Honestly, when we all hear that song and her part we know it's her and she sounds amazing period and even in the chipmunk voice which is hard to do. I always thought she was apart of the song and it was fire. He meant no disrespect and Kanye's song was fire 🔥 period. Chaka your voice is so sultry, savory and amazing 💯 Beautiful blessings 🕊️🕊️🕊️
It’s her song so if she thinks Kanye f’ed it up so be it respect the Legends people
A whole couple of generations love this song Chaka Chaka khan
That song is a classic. Chaka you should be honored
Crazy how she switched up
That was one of his best songs ever!! Everyone loves that song
Idk why he didn’t use the choir version sounds way better
It doesnt fit the song
I love that song! Kanye did a Great Job on that remix! Surprised Chaka Khan doesn’t see that! She’s also a Great talent! Beautiful voice !
Through the wire is one of the greatest songs of all time, he didn’t mess anything up
Nicki Minaj looks so much like her
And they're both bitchy😂
He didn't "Freak It Up" He Made A Hit Bigger Than Her Own Song, That Song Is Heart Felt💯
😂 lol i felt the same when my son played it for me for the first tyme by golly 😮
SHE WRONG
One of a legendary artist and producers greatest cuts and she thinks its trash lol
He deceived her to steal her intellectual property. That’s messed up. Everything’s not about a check.
exactly . thats exactly what he did and I love through the wire but I think he mislead her by saying I want to use the chorus but not telling her how he was gonna alter her voice had he told her that she probably wouldve said no.
I love both versions
I hate any versions, but hers❤ RIP
i know 15 kids in my high school who learn who u was and now are fan because him
Lady Khan, you changed that song at Aretha Franklin's funeral service, remember? And it was so memorable that even now I can hear your unique delivery of: "Goin Up Yonder!" I loved it
I here Chaka used to hang out with George Lopez
Its actually amazing
he made the song even BETTER both songs are amazing
Man she trippin that track lifts me up more then the original
I personally loved ❤it
I love that song.
Oh no Chaka K. Well keep Blessed y’all.🎉🎶🎙🎵🔊🔊🔊👏🤙🎉
I'm almost and I love Kanye..he put you back on the map...
She doesnt hate the song she just dont like the smaple that was used
She doesn't like the chipmunk style voice ... She said that ..
@@clarkclarke that's also exactly what I said
I mean. I get why she doesn't like it. If you have heard her sing that- wow! She can more than sing.
Even though I do like Kanye s song, I get her issue with it.
She is allowed, as is Kanye, me & you, to an opinion. We don't have to agree. Let's show each other kindness, respect & empathy. 🙏🏾
That's my favorite song... Kanye did a good job.
It’s crazy how she saying all
This without mentioning that he did that song with his jaw wired shut
The only reason I went to search for her was cause of Ye 😊 I didn't know about her . Ye brought me to her .😊
That is one of kanye’s best songs
It's weird how every celebrity is supposed to be some kind of automatic robot who loves everything and speaks well of everyone. She hates the song, that's her opinion, she's entitled to it. I'm glad she's comfortable enough in herself to be honest about it.
She was the only one who thought that,if anything it was very creative.
Shes an artist and a legend...she didnt like it but im sure she appreciated the checks
She trippin. That’s one of the greatest songs ever bar for bar
As much as I love her... Ye did his thang on that song!
Chipmunked by Kanye 😂
Respectfully, once a song is released, it isn't so much the artist's song anymore - it belongs to everyone who internalises it. Music becomes bigger than the artist when listened to.
Not to say she isn't allowed to feel this way but equally, are we putting 2 and 2 together to make 5 here?
don’t mean she don’t fuck w the artist she just didn’t like what he did WITH HER voice it’s understandable artist are sensitive about they shit
It’s great ❤
Retitle this. The song is called Through the Fire. And yes. He found a way to f it up.
no he didn’t
Through the Wire > Through the Fire
through the wire makes more sense
No foh
I liked that song
She is an icon genius 👏
She likes it now
After that she said that she loved it
It was an insult. He distorted her voice, and Chaka is one of the great American singers…
Chaka a real Diva if you noticed she dont do duets and things like and yeah she gotta right to her opinion...Prince was the same way let someone had altered Prince voice he prob woulda went the fucc off too lol
She killed me 😂😂😂❤
Chipmunk autotune can be a little cringe sometimes I understand. But on Kanye’s song, it’s perfect with that sped up sample
We wouldnt know her if it wasnt for him this song wouldve ended with her generation if kanyes artistic ability didn't find a way to make it relevant to this day people are bumping this song 2024
Lol this is so untrue 😂😂 dont typecast us all just because u maybe didnt know it
It's actually one of his best classics it was like more like paying respect to her if you ask me❤
What I didn't like about that song is that he mentioned that he looked like Emmitt Till. The way Emmitt was murdered, no Kanye disrespected Emmitt.
Lil Wayne said beat that Puss up like Emmitt Till
Chipmunk soul
Cheques not big enough, if song not written by Khan... And new song went to a bigger market, found new eardrums.
Hard to impress new eardrums... The Chipmunks took it aweeeiii
Chaka is only relevant to the younger generations because of Kanye
