Chaka Khan (born March 23, 1953) is a multiple Grammy Award-winning American singer known for hit songs such as "I'm Every Woman", "I Feel For You" and "Through the Fire". She also sung the theme song for the hit children's TV show, Reading Rainbow.
She was first featured as a member of the funk band Rufus before beginning her solo career.
Though regarded as an R&B singer, she has performed numerous musical genres including funk, disco, jazz, ballads, hip hop, adult contemporary, pop and blues standards.
Her contributions to funk and soul music in her early career earned her the title of the "Queen of Funk Soul"
Kahn is known for her perfectly pitched contralto vocals.
Chaka Khan was born Yvette Marie Stevens. She adopted the African name "Chaka" while working as a volunteer on the Black Panthers' Free Breakfast for Children program in Chicago.
At the age of 11 she formed her first group, the Crystalettes.
Chaka's fortunes changed when she teamed with ex-American Breed member Kevin Murphy and Andre Fischer to form Rufus. In the meantime, she married bass guitarist Hassan Khan.
By decade's (70s) end, Rufus was among the most successful funk groups, rivaling the popularity of Earth Wind & Fire & The Commodores, among others.
With the help of Stevie Wonder, Rufus broke into both the pop music and R&B charts in 1974 with the gold-selling hit "Tell Me Something Good".
Rufus earned eight platinum albums and three gold singles before Khan went solo full time in 1980.
On December 3, 2004, Chaka Khan received an honorary doctorate degree from Berklee College of Music. She is also active in the autism community, as she has family members who have been diagnosed with this condition.

Ray Charles Robinson (September 23, 1930 – June 10, 2004), known by his stage name Ray Charles, was an American pianist and singer who shaped the sound of rhythm and blues. He brought a soulful sound to country music, pop standards, and a rendition of "America the Beautiful" that Ed Bradley of 60 Minutes called the "definitive version of the song, an American anthem — a classic, just as the man who sung it."
Frank Sinatra called him "the only true genius in the business" and in 2004, Rolling Stone Magazine ranked Charles #10 on their list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.
