Free Download: Chaka Khan - I Feel For You (80's Child Legend Edit)
Chaka Khan covering Prince in 1984 was and still is a stroke of pure genius. She took I Feel For You, a funky album cut from his 1979 self-titled debut LP, strapped it onto a rocket and sent it into the stratosphere with a huge funk bang. Her version features some serious 80's swag and friends Stevie Wonder on harmonica, Melle Mel on that iconic rap part and instrumentation by The System's David Frank. PLUS it samples this + this one, absolute badass beauties. The end result brought the house down for years to come and gave Chaka a million seller that won a Grammy for Best R&B Song. Also it set the bar real high for the rest of the funk gang, haha. This edit by UK producer Danny Worrall a.k.a 80's Child plays like a sweet & classic 12" loops, extended breaks and all. We cannot even type this properly as we're busy cranking the volume up and stuff, haha. Play this loud and enjoooy getting down!
