we always talk about artists who we believe are inspired by prince, but less so on who originally inspired his purpleness. prince has pretty much created a recognisable sound of his own but there are elements of many artists of the 60s and 70s. we don't need an excuse to post about prince here at dirtymartini: a post of prince duets , featuring beyonce, angie stone, madonna to name a few a post of [...]

This one if for ma laday... Oooh yeah... you know what we're missin' around here? Some slow jamz... and I brought in a guest DJ to help me out... "Welcome to We-Love Radio, this is Mister Senor Love Daddy comin' to you from around the block, around the clock. Yes, children, this is the cool-out corner. We're slowing it down for all the lovers in the house. I'll be giving you all the help you need. [...]

There is no song more fitting on a rainy MLK day than this tune by Chaka Khan. Clouds was written by the R&B and soul team Ashford & Simpson. Chaka Khan's vocal power intense delivery mated with the slick production work of Arif Mardin this track is a flood of pure soul emotion. Turn it up! mp3: Chaka Khan - Clouds

The Love Train rumbles on... Chaka Khan - I Know You, I Live You (Tony Humphries 73 Edit)
After lecturing us on the glory days of transistor radios, wilderness man tried his best smooth voice for size. "Chaka Khan, let me rock you, let me rock you, Chaka Khan," channeling Melle Mel surprisingly well. I suddenly felt this out-of-body urge to shriek the words "Baby, baby, when I look at youuuuuu!" in response. A failed sing-along followed. In spite of everyone's bewildered looks,
Chaka Khan is set to release a new album next Tuesday. Funk This is a collection of new songs and covers, all produced by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. Where 2004's Classikhan was a set of songbook standards backed up by the London Symphony Orchestra, this set is a return to the r'n'b and funk of her 30 year past. Who better than Jam & Lewis to make it all sound good. And sound good it does. The vibe
I've been a bit negligent around here lately, so here's a funky playlist of the hotness to brighten your weekend. Here's the line-up; Kanye cops Steely Dan's Kid Charlemagne. A US bonus track from SMD shows the spirit of the early '80s Human League living on. A remix from the Midnight Juggernauts bonus disc strips it down to the gnarly bass riff. Chaka and Mary J. battle it out over a rhythm
A theme post? Sure why not. Recently I've noticed I've been listening to a mess of really heavy songs (as least according to what my iTunes is telling me). I'm not sure what the connection is to my listening habits as of late, but it seemed like a good reason to showcase some new and old cuts I've been giving play. Round 1 - Chaka Khan w/ Mary J. Blidge . You read right. This is some hard shit here. I really have no idea where this is from, or what the [...]

(This post originally appeared on Loudersoft on July 2, 2006) I know I've been bad about updating. Okay, well... life is happening . But I can't just abandon the one thing that keeps it all together, can I? Summertime in Memphis is so hot, your feet can't touch the pavement and nobody wants to move. It's 103 in the shade, and it's that swampy, nasty heat that makes you take three showers a day and still feel funky. So, in honor of the funky, nasty heat of summertime, I dug [...]

<img src=" http://img132.imageshack.us/im g132/8088/captureqa5.jpg" alt="Pase Rock" The latest mix from Pase Rock (he of the Linsey Lohan track from last year) has been on regular rotation of late, taking in a touch of soul, early hiphop, disco, Bmore Club, electro and other bits too - genres aside, it's a great listen. All the DJ Eli remixes on here are spectacular - especially his M.I.A. and 3 the Hard Way reworks. Give it a listen: Pase Rock - Live in Miami (Zshare Link) Tracklist: [...]

one of the great things about living in new york is access. access to all kinds of cool stuff at anytime. while we don't always take advantage of what the city has to offer, just knowing we can if we choose to feels like a victory over predictability. one of our favorite places to go on weekends is the museum of natural history . i've always had mixed feelings about that place: its enormous collection of stuffed specimens from the animal kingdom is, umm, more accessible than their living relatives in the bronx zoo. but the [...]

It's another Wisconsin winter day and I'm about to bug out. Every morning, the gray sky makes my brain feel more and more like mashed potatoes, and I can't stop eating cheetos. And whenever I've got a head full of starches, I try to think of a time when I felt bliss. So today, I'm thinking about the most breathtaking concert I've ever seen. About 10 years ago, Chaka Khan opened up for (a pre-churchy) Prince at the Gorge Ampitheatre in central Washington. If you've ever been to the Gorge, you know it is one of [...]
