Sweet soul diva scored 1970s hits backed by Rufus, notched solo classics into the '80s.
Best known in the mainstream for her superb 1984 cover of Prince's "I Feel for You," Grammy-winning R&B singer Chaka Khan enjoyed solo success as well as popularity as a member of the group Rufus. Rufus was among the pre-eminent funk groups of the decade; distinguished by Khan's dynamic vocals, the group earned half-a-dozen gold or platinum albums before she went solo in 1978. Born Yvette Marie Stevens in Great Lakes, Illinois, on March 23, 1953, she was raised on Chicago's South Side. ~ Jason Ankeny
