Chaka Khan is to release an album she had previously recorded with Prince in 1998.
The album, titled, 'Come 2 My House', was recorded 15 years after the pair had collaborated on that 1984 hit, 'I Feel For You'. The track went on to feature on Khan's album from that same year, having featured on Prince's self-titled record in 1979.
“We worked on a lot of songs, and they’re all going to be on a CD I’m soon to release – there’s a lot of red tape that’s been in the way, but we’ve cleared it. It’s him and me and (bassist) Larry Graham, together", Khan revealed to The Guardian.
On working with Prince, Chaka Khan added: “It was like working with myself, more than anyone else I’ve worked with. Sia’s bringing up a close third, behind Prince and Miles Davis. Quincy Jones, too: he oozed inspiration and shared it. Prince just grabbed ideas out of the air and left you wondering: ‘Where did you get that?’ He was a really deep and beautiful thinker".
Elsewhere, Ezra Edelman, director of the cancelled Netflix Prince documentary, broke his silence on the decision to pull the plug on the film back in March. More on this from Nova here.
