Say for just a tad of aging she still look the same. Still petite, cute and fine. She usually does the musical arrangements for the Grammys and other award shows.
She's a true shorty. Prince had a crush on her and wrote the song "I Feel For You" for her. Her record company had conflicts with Prince's co. Warner Bros., so Chaka Khan remade the song and the rest is history. Just some trivia for the hardcore fans
He has always liked taller women LMAO I'm wrong for that one....She is so cute though. I'm man about that dude jumping out of now where during 00:39 lol
Man, this music is real quality and she is so beautiful!!!! I like the thing at 3:44 where she starts first in the line of dancers and is the last one too. Cool.
This was one of those songs I could listen to over and over. Patrice is very talented. Another song from this album though I couldn't find it on you tube.."Anything Can Happen" and I'm certain you will love that one too if you can get a chance to hear it.
I remember first seeing this song on BET back in 87. I used to have my VCR on standby when I wanted to record videos I like. I never heard the song, but I liked Patrice Rushen so I recorded it. I still love this song. She is so cute in this video!
Interesting thing some might not know is Patrice's mother, Ruth Rushen (who is just as small as Patrice) was the former Director of The California Dept of Corrections. Lil Mamma was the head woman in charge of all of the prisons in California back in 80s.
It didnt even break the top 75 in the UK. But people like Tony Blackburn on his show on the then Radio London gave it pretty good airplay and thats where I heard it. I bought the 12 inch with three different versions of this song and I couldnt stop playing it :o)
Top Ten R&B hits, including "Haven't You Heard," "Forget Me Nots," "Feels So Real," "Watch Out," "You Remind Me," and "Never Gonna Give You Up" from her first five albums (Patrice, Pizzazz, Posh, Straight From the Heart, and Now). Rushen also performed her single I Need Your Love on the hit show Soul Train in 1981. She also penned the opening theme for The Steve Harvey Show
omg this brings back memories! everyone was sporting this style. I lotta people didn't know this was all her real hair. she was the first alicia keys.
No the first Alicia Keys was Irene Cara. Patrice had a much more overall music talent then Alicia and Irene. But the vocal style and sentiment for Ms. Keys more closely resembles Irene.
This is a very good album. Every cut on it is wonderfully mixed and mastered. She used top notch musicians on the live tracks; she obviously know her craft and the profession.
She is so cute in this! I started listening to Patrice when Now! came out, but Watch Out! is just so happy that I've listened to it more than any of her more well-known earlier albums. I've always thought that it was so cool that she could take a break from being a jazz piano virtuoso to cut loose like this and have some fun. She has been composing classical music lately, but it would be great to get a new album out of her.
This has been posted before and removed because of "alleged" infringement. So I hope you all enjoy it while it lasts. Patrice was ONE of the bests. She had a GREAT voice and she was just purely talented. I truly wish that her song "WHEN I FOUND YOU" would be posted up here. That was the Love Song of all love songs. GO PATRICE

This was when dark-skinned women have their chance in the music industry. Now, it changed. I'm glad that I grew up in the late 70s to the mid 90s.

Actually, she has always been very cute, just not in a loud, striking way. She looks rather short, though :)
Is this really 20 years old?! Sounds so fresh, the music a bit like Angela Winbush, the singing a bit like Janet Jackson.

Patrice had a very nice sound and fitted her.
Interesting thing some might not know is Patrice's mother, Ruth Rushen (who is just as small as Patrice) was the former Director of The California Dept of Corrections. Lil Mamma was the head woman in charge of all of the prisons in California back in 80s.
