Chaka who?

Am not a music or show biz person, but reason and respect would argue that Chaka Kahn’s view that the Davis pre-Grammy party was in poor taste.  Should have been cancelled.  -CollegeMoneyConsulting@gmail.com

Chaka Khan, otherwise known as the Queen of Funk, who has won a ton of Grammies in her 50 year career.

As for Whitney, she dug her own grave.

Great interview with Chaka….only in the slimey world of music would a Clive Davis refuse to cancel a party at the same venue as his “friend’s” dead body. Shows what a phony Clive Davis is.
Thanks Chaka for saying what many others were thinking….

Chaka Con is a dullard and they are now giving Grammys to women abusers.

BTW, Con has won 10 Grammys over 50 years; Adele won 6 in one year.

Chaka looks good, she looks like she lost some weight and has gotten herself together.  Great for her. 

I didn’t realize we were having a competition between bands that either of us have any affiliation to.

She does look good, relatively speaking.  She was kind of frumpy a few years back.

 Funny you say that since you were the one who brought up winning Grammys.

… and, it continues ….

You have to be an ignorant tool if you don’t know who the legendary Chaka Khan is. Houston remade one of her all time greatest tracks. Khan even appeared in the music video.

P.S. Whitney Houston’s family gave the Clive party a thumbs up to go ahead. Khan is wrong in this regard but right on the disgusting move by Sony to hike the album prices.

Of course it should have been canceled.  But Clive couldn’t do that to all of his no talent rap stars – Chris Brown had to party  – he was nominated!   They will all regret partying while her body was lying upstairs later on.  The absolute crassness is what the grammys have become. They have sold out completely.

 They have not seen a true star since Whitney for 30 years,

Somebody had to say it…finally.  Good for Chaka!

I totally agree with Chaka.  The fact is that these moguls are onlyin it for the money…period.  They can care less about any of these singers….period.  The problem is the singers, in many cases, are so young and never realize who these people are.  I wouldn’t blame anyone for Whitney’s drug addiction but Whitney, but I will say Davis and others are no more than barkers trying to sell a product.  Parents should be aware and educate their children before entering this and other entertaiment fields.

I watched Clive Davis speak on the night she died…..it told the story….greedy mogul!

yet you were the one who didn’t know who Chaka Khan was.  That’s why he brought it up.

Alicia Keys fans might disagree with you about a true star……..but without a Whitney there might not be a market for Alicia….

To accommodate everyone’s sensibilities, however, Clive said he would absolutely, positively not put the ice and beer in that particular tub!

Ted26- You are a complete IDIOT and a pitiful TROLL…Chaka Khan is a MULTI-PLATINUM Artist who has won 10 Grammys and 23 Grammy nominations. She has received Soul Train awards, United Negro College Fund award of excellence, Nominee for the American Music Awards, and a nominee for the Rock and Roll hall of fame! She has been making HITS for over 35years now how long did you say ADELE has been around? Don’t you ever insult Chaka again with your idiotic comments!

And, she absolutely keeps it real!- She has been in this industry for a very long time and she knows exactly what she is talking about. If she is suspicious of Clive Davis motives then she has good reason to be suspicious. WHO is the heck gives a party in the same hotel where their closest friend lie dead? talking about a tribute. Tribute my arse! Nobody, and I mean nobody should have went to that party. NONE of them in attendance cared about Whitney! As Chaka said, she couldn’t even put on make-up. That’s how devastated she was… I didn’t see any of them so distraught that they couldn’t give their interviews…They are all fake as $3.00 bills!!

TELL IT CHAKA!!- TELL IT ALL……

Says the man who is  devoid of any vices and holier than the Lord himself…Gimme a break!  Stop judging as you know nothing about this woman’s personal struggles and life experiences except for what the media showed you.   

She’s simply saying that “show biz” plays a major role in how these celebrities behave.  There is a lot of pressure put on the people to produce and be perfect.  Have you ever known Michael, Whitney, Beyonce, Gaga or any of these ppl to even have the sniffles?  They better not!  Because someone at that record label, publishing house, or a concert promoter, etc will loose out on some money.  It’s not this glamorous experience. It’s quite grueling and stressful. So yes, drugs and booze and whatever else is pushed onto these stars to keep them going like robots.  So you see, there’s so much more going on than the public thinks.

So, maybe they shouldn’t have shown the Grammy’s on TV because Whitney died? You think there were NO pre/post Grammy parties AFTER Whitney’s death? Come on, now.  Sad and tragic, Whitney died. But, the show, and the world, must go on. Greed among those in the music industry is nothing new. I watched/heard Bobby Brown on the night WH (his ex-wife and Baby Mama) died…. now, THAT told the story on greed.

Maybe Whitney should have chosen to attend Clive’s party,and not offed herself, holding the party and the Emmys hostage to her own screwed up world!

@ Da fool who said adelle won 6 grammies in one night to chaka khan’s 10,thats only because they giving grammies away nowadays.What so impotant about a grammy award anyway,its just a couple of people who dont know nothing about music and who are they to say who wins or lose,u cant judge for da people.da industry full of shit.

the music industry has a lot of dark secrets that no one knows about. I would never sell my soul to any of those devils. They make your image to be something you are not. They tell you how to sang and what to sang, once you sighn that contract your soul belongs to them. To Houston family stay strong and trust in God and not money. To all those that like to judge and have said mean and unkind words out of hatred what God are you serving the God of love Or satan the god of hatred.
