  • The tragedy of this is that when Angie Stone handed her the microphone, Chaka's voice was not properly warmed up. She blew out her vocal chords and will never be able to perform again. We will miss you Chaka. Thanks a lot Angie Stone!

  • Simply Chaka who Grew roots is these Children..........

    She Lives in Many

  • @caliBornbEauty CHAKA KHAN IS THE REALEST, RAWEST, TRUTH!!! CHICAGO MUST BE PROUD :-)

  • @flyymfknnian ERYKAH IS THE TRUTH!!!

  • @njohnsonist Back in the day that's what it took... RAW TALENT, not this auto-tune crap that's all about image and voice makeovers. Chaka comes from the school of RAW TALENT; NO CLEARING THE THROAT OR WARM UPS NEEDED...LOL

  • @Doctorlicum Yep Yep!!!

  • Chaka Khan reppin' that Chi-Town!

  • i think angie did a good job angie can blow she wasnt slackin she wanted chaka to feel apart of it and give respect and honor to her

  • i seen this on tv.. this was poerful.. wow.. I dont think I even blinked.. This is going in my favs, idc if its recorded off tv or not.. lol the best performances are live anyway.imo.

  • yes Fantasia will take it to church in a second! lol

  • Erykah BAdu Is ridiculous!

  • I love Erikah Badu so much but I just get the vibe that she would want to kick my ass because I'm white and call me cracker while she's doing it.

  • Comment removed

  • a lot of singers can reach chaka's high notes but that vocal quality of chaka is just out of this world! she's got a trumpet inside her throat! i love chaka!!!

  • angie stone pissed me off

  • Angie said uh uhn Chaka you're hitting that note yourself! lol

    

  • They should've left Angie Stone out and had Chaka perform in her own tribute since Angie was having problems finishing the song

  • fantasia just kills it and leaves I love it so much!

  • I wish Kelly Price was in this instead of Angie Stone. This is a Chaka Khan tribute & all the other ladies brought it. Hell, even Chaka was telling Angie to sing the song, but she kept trying to give Chaka the mic. Mistake lol. Angie could have done better.

  • Fantasia is a great performer!

  • angie was the best

  • oMG!!! they all killed it i got chills hearing shacka sing also Erykah...

  • Fantasia really does a tribute well...check out her tribute to Patti Labelle

  • Angie is just an Alto...can't compare chakas soprano like that. We like what we hear but difference is expected. Too much talent up on that stage...luv it

  • Why in the world would they end this with Angie ass

  • @TheDippymusic she probably did hella bomb in rehearsal!

  • Fantasia showed out

  • Well Fantasia killed it sorry 

  • All of them were great man love it

  • Erykah came to sing & was not playing.........Fantasia is just a showstopper

  • The notes hit at 6:11 - :6:15 are EPIC!!!!!! Gave me chills! and Fantasia wore it out!!!!

  • tasia!

  • My favorite part is the Chaka schooled Angie.

  • @clacy7 - That was a big mistake to give a Legend the mic! Especially if YOU aren't done singing...that's a No, No! LOL

  • @clacy7 the best part is when chacka was like bitch get back on the stage...lol..."you sing to me bitch, this is my tribute!

  • Fantasia took it to church on 'em lol

  • These ladies DID. IT.!! Unbelievable 

  • Did'nt know erykah could sing like that go girl all them did wonderful.Check out group 7/27 on ktrb90

  • Erykah Badu shocked me didn't know she could sing like that. Ledisi did a good job. Fantasia hype the crowd up. Angie did a good job and then Angie make it better when she gave Chaka Khan the mic.

  • LEDISI IS SO UNDER CREDITED...SHE IS SUCH AN ARTIST....

  • Erykah and Ledisi did the dang thang! Why is Fantasia always screaming? Sit down with all that please! Angie sounds just like Chaka with Ain't Nobody, but yes, how she gonna have someone sing their own tribute? I'm with you there! Over all it was great but they shoulda left Fantasia out in my opinion.

  • @LeaJolan true leave fantasia to do pattie but it was good to hear her sing cause at the end they turned that bitch out

  • Ledisi was excellent!!! Angie had the wrong song.

  • I just love how she didn't even get a chance to warm-up or anything, and STILL sang the hell out of that song. Gone girl!!!

  • angie stone should've sat this one out, and where in the world was mary j, blige and whitney houston??? that would've been hot!! jmo

  • Erykah Badu did Chaka Khan's song justice they definitely picked the right one to sing that song!,i don't know what kind of people they choose to sing this years 2011 soul train awards tributes to Gladys Knight and Earth Wind and Fire i was wondering where was the soul singers at...wasn't SOUL TRAIN about SOUL SINGING....WHERE IS THE UMPH IN MUSIC NOWADAYS

  • @Trill549 my thoughts exactly

    

  • What? No "I'm Every Woman" ?? I mean, this is great, but it's almost expected with a Chaka Khan tribute-it was her first major hit outside of her singing with Rufus!

  • Fantasia and Erykah Badu torn it up!! Man no matter what Fantasia sings she gives it a 110%!! The cant touch Fannie!! Lol

  • ONLY Chaka could so efforlessly come in like that! DOPE!

  • when was this

  • That all did a awesome job singing their appreciation of Chaka. Chaka has been an icon a very long time and she is worthy of this tribute:). Thanks for the post of this video. Many blessings...

  • LOL at the hair flip @ 6:05!

  • Comment removed

  • Ms. Badu GSU rocks the house ..Yes queen Yeah Angie Stone could not compeate with Tasis so sge had Chaka sing at he rown tribute what is wrong with Angie she looked so uncomfortable... What was that about and Tasis told chaka she ahd something to knock Chaka pride aside but Tasia is respectful did nto mean any harm ,but Angie is busted

  • Ms. Badu GSU rocks the house ..Yes queen

  • Planning an R&B legend's tribute? I only want to hear one word....... FANTASIA!!!!!!

  • it WAS the Fantasia show!! sorry ladies..

  • @shortyduwhop319 ..u aint never lying! fantasia did it for me!! smh

  • This is the beauty of our people; and women in the black community are the sustinance!!! Thank you for posting

  • Angie made the show. It was about Chaka. She sounded great and let it be known that this isn't about me. Her bringing Chaka into that song was right on point!!! Mad props to Angie and Chaka. Y'all killed it. And Chaka let it be known ( unintentionally ) that can't nobody do it like her. Love it!!! Side note: fantasia lost points with me. It's not about u here dear. Obviously those that worked hard and those on a show travel 2 different paths.

  • LOVE IT!!!!

  • They all was ok but chaka a beast. They all pros and have own range. But chaka has range like no other

  • FANTASIA is a beast!!!!!!

  • Fantasia looks like MONEY and sounds awesome!

  • I wish Tasia part was longer and a bit less grunting, but that's my girl and that's her style. I may also be the only one who didn't think Erykah was jaw-dropping good..now she put her foot in this song on her live album I will admit, but here, eh, it was ok, she hit a good note toward the end. She looked a lil nervous and maybe it was just the audio quality of the video? I love how everyone was on their feet when Tasia entered the building...let me go look at more of her live...

  • Comment removed

  • I totally agree on Erykah...I couldn't have said it better.

  • Chaka OWNED it ;-)

  • Look at Ray J actin like he know wat gud music is 6:15

  • @callrodgers011 second that

  • So Glad Angie passed that MIC

  • I dont know if i liked how Ledisi did that =/

    

  • erykah killed it and fantasia

  • come on through Tasia!!!

  • man fantasia gives me goosebumps when she sings live

  • Ledisi's voice in incredible!!! i love her so much....

  • The first half of the tribute (Erykah and Ledisi) was awesome! The second half, definitely the wrong people to sing Chaka songs, even if I love both of them generally.

  • What!!! Tasia is BACK!!!

  • Cant she tell that Chaka doesnt want to sing.Wtf.Smh

  • Erykah Badu can BLOW SHE reminds me of CHAKA KHAN IN THE 70s with the band Rufus.

  • @Trill549 me too they sound alot alike

  • I would have given anything to see Fantasia do that tribute by herself. . .Erykah killed it, but that was to be expected. . .She ate it up on her live cd!

  • this is what i call music baby naw hello somebody alrrightt chaka some of that N.O luv u momma

  • Erykah MURDERED THAT PAST... SHES ALL TYPES OF AMAZING I LOVE HER.. LEDISI SUCKS.. FANTASIA IS SUCH A GREAT PERFORMER I LOVE HER

  • @TheMoniemoe if you think Ledisi sucks, you may want to hit up a ENT doctor.

  • Erykah Badu Killed it!!!!!!!

  • @gearronvinson you are sooo right

    

  • @gearronvinson That girl went in!! She should have sang the whole damn song!

  • @gearronvinson She did!!!

  • CHAKA HAS AN INCOMPARABLE TALENT!!!

  • Did anyone one notice Chaka tell Angie "You Sing" at 5:48, but Angie kept on pushing.... hahaha... How you make somebody sing at their own tribute... #sad

  • @MRUBOKAY Lmaooo

  • @MRUBOKAY I noticed it tooo and it was because she knew she was messing up and she knew shew couldn't hit those notes!!!

  • @MRUBOKAY and @imagofly9: You OBVIOUSLY don't know Chaka's personality. She LOVED showing those girls that SHE is the real Queen of that stage. She's extremely competitive, which is why she got where she did (well, there's that AWESOME voice, too!!! LoL). She DID show them, too. There's no denying that! :D

    By the way, Badu did "Stay" on one of her early CDs. You should hear what she does when she gets to do the WHOLE song. She GETS IT IN!

  • @MRUBOKAY I'm happy Angie got Chaka to sing! She recognized that ain't nobody can truly sing a Chaka song... Chaka shut it DOWN! #realtalk

  • @MRUBOKAY Angie knew her ass couldnt hit them notes lmaooooo

  • @BriBThizzin that was like bitch lemme show u how to do this...give me the damn mic!

  • 6:20 fake ass jermain dupree, you understand nothing of real music...

  • @HammondB200 i thought that was ray j...

  • <3 FANTASIAAAAAAAAAA !!!!

  • thats what i call REAL TALENT !!!!! when u can sing on the spot ..... fake ass singers today WISH they could do that

  • Erykah is a BEAST!!! And she's so pretty!!!!!!!

  • Fantasia killed it!!!!!!!

  • Fantasia Look amazing

  • can no one sing like chaka

  • perfect

  • love chaka khan ! thats how super voices must be!

  • I had no idea Erykah was so pretty

  • @7Christian RIGHT. The way she dresses sometimes won't let you see her natural beauty

  • ERYKAH DIIIIIIDD THAT!

    Yas god hunty! She slaaayyed them notes! That range *slain on floor*

  • LEDISI ALLLL DAY!!!

  • My cousin fantasia barrino monique she always kill it on the stage when she sing that voice run in our family k.c. And jojo also my cousins i came from a talented family.

  • Who makes someone sing during their OWN tribute?! But, She still got it, i guess.

  • The was F'ing Perfect

  • Fantasia should change her name to FIRE! They were all amazing but Fantasia gave me goosebumps!

  • @princesssaren LOL YASSSSSSSSSSSSSS

  • ERYKAH IS JAMMIN`! I love when she sings this song!

  • It was kinda cute till they gave Chaka the mic...then shit got SHUT DOWN!!!

  • They got the real sangas out for Chaka. Go head!

  • damn erykah sung the shyt outta this song

  • Erykah is so beautiful

  • Erykah and fantasia did it for me!!!! I love them :-)

  • Erykah is sexy as hale .... jeeeez.. hmm

  • i love ledesi here

  • I think if a singer can't hit a certain note thats when they hand the Mic over. I think Angie couldn't reach that note without struggling so thats why she handed her the Mic. We'll never know. Erykah's part was my fav and I wish it was a bit longer.

  • I watched this part because of FANTASIA,but the other ones nice too

  • i love how chaka puts all the singers from today to shame lol

  • EPIC

  • I always mute Ledisi's part. Lmao *shrugs*

  • Thats what happens when you give Chaka the mic !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • There's no problem with Angie getting Chaka to sing at her tribute. When you're a singer and you see other people singing your own songs, you get the itch to come up on stage and perform too. Chaka's a singer at heart, I'm sure she wasn't content with just sitting and watching all those other girls, as good as they were. Chaka was just being polite when she said "you sing it". I'm sure she wanted to go up on stage and wreck it .

  • angie wrapped up so tight she COULDNT BREATHE .....FAIL

  • Chaka told Angie to sing it at 5:49. She said "you sing it." Man, Angie is whack.

  • Angie made me feel weird. She handin Chaka the mic. She got Chaka singing her own tribute lmao WTH

  • Chaka. Is. Baaaaad.

  • I think all these Ladies represent a different aspect of Chaka. She is every woman!

    Eclectic, Jazz, Gospel, & R&B.

  • "Ain't nobody, SANG like Chaka, ain't nobody sound that way! ain't nobody,,,,!!!" Now, there's a re-mix for yo' head, folks! LOL - J

  • the weakest performance was Angie's but it was good, lol. Chaka was like, why don't you sing it, you're doing the tribute, then she figured out Angie couldn't hit some of the notes lol...

  • @ songbird111677 Fantasia dosent sceam its just the way her voice is dont hate!

  • Why is Fantasia always killing the tributes! If I was Aretha Franklin, I would have gladly let Fantasia do a tribute to me! The gal can sang!

  • Wow Angie knew she couldn't hit those notes so she passed the mic to the Queen, Chaka Khan! LOL

  • WOW! I wouldnt have sang after Fantasia...lol. I would just come out bow and leave the stage!

  • @technicolor87 LOLOL!!!

  • @rolling6700 Hahaha poor Angie, bless her heart!

  • CHAKKA SONGS IS HARD TO SING, BUT THE LADIES DID A GOOD JOB!!!!

  • ERYKAH LAWD HAVE MERCY!! I LOVE THIS WOMAN!

  • You go Erykah! and Fanatasia and Ledisi. Chaka Khan, still one of the best

  • kELLY PRICE SHOULD'VE REPLACED ANGIE!

  • Everyone was good except ANGIE STONE! Y was she there!

  • FANTASIAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! 

  • this is the most singing ive heard erykah badu do her whole career wow she better get it

  • @wickedwatwat1 LOL Erykah lets you have it every now and then.

  • Everybody sounded nice on this clip but,Angie & E. Badu were the only ones who really paid respect to the actual melody of the original song.Nothing wrong with adding your flavor but stay with the melody whenever possible.It's a tribute to a legend,not a place to show how you can go off.Of course Chaka goes off from time to time but,it's her song! haha! Still a cool performance though.

  • @5:55 time...They better watch out...lol! giving Chaka the mic she's gonna blow the roof off!...lol!

  •  Ledisi is just AMAZING!!!!!=)))))

  • fantasias piece actually annoyed me to the max. Erykah killed it, and I love when Chaka showed em' how it's done.

  • fantasia kills it everytime

  • only true fans of erykah knows she can sing like that

  • love all the talent with this tribute , chaka voice increDIble!!!!

  • GO OFF ERYKAH! I rewind her part over and over !

  • ERYKAA was WOOOW

    then CHAKA FRIGGIN HELL JHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZE

  • Erykah's outfit was too fresh! I'm surprised some of you all didn't know she had pipes like that. Erykah is not a joke. All the ladies put on prime performances, but they weren't ready for Fantasia. She took it to another level haha I like how Angie let Chaka bring it on home at the end.

  • OMG... Chaka Kahn KILLED IT!!! Miss Lady still has it!!!!!!!

  • Ps..I think the show hit its peek when Angie did her tribute and Chaka joined

  • LOVE FANTASIA..!

  • The tribute was good but when CHAKA started singing!!!!!! OOOOWEEEE!!! Nobody can touch her!!! Chaka's voice is devine!!

  • Angie Stone...terrible. Simple and plain....

  • I love Fantasia!!! I don't care how much she screams...it just fits her...
