Can I just point out that Aretha Franklin's funeral is the best description of a black funeral on this planet we don't mourn the dead we celebrate they life
That's why I'm watching this morning. This performance by Chaka Khan at Aretha Franklin's funeral inspires spiritual joy. After sheltering-in-place and missing Thanksgiving, Christmas and New year's Eve celebrations, I was feeling depressed. Not anymore. Now I know that I was afflicted with self-pity. Aretha is still giving me happiness and strength, God bless her.
Here are the receipts that CHAKA KHAN can sing ANYTHING! Marques, this Home Going celebration was just spectacular yet sad that Ms. Franklin was not alive to see herself be honored. It would be nice if we honored our Kings and Queens while they are still with us. I mean a real good hour or two just for them not knocking the BET Honors or BET Music Awards but a show just for that one artist or group/band. Ms. Franklin will be sorely missed🌹
Not only your eyebrows, Minister Louis Farrakhan, Michael Eric Dyson and Reverend Jesse Jackson (although, he needed assistance). The whole congregation rose to their feet.
pure genius when she let it go chills everyday great job thank you Chaka look at Judge Mathis Farrakhan and Jesse and the 3 ladies behind her she even started to scat brillant
She said that she was going to be nervous....that's probably why...she knew Aretha' s standards were high and was nervous about messing up. However, she is always amazing and did a fabulous job!!!
She may not have known the words and read it from the back of a fan, but she still ate that song up, especially the end.😂😂🙌🏽 That choir killed it the entire funeral.
Chaka has lost so many of her good friends thru out the years. She once stated that they were icons to many but they were her friends. Aretha, Prince, Whitney Houston, Natalie Cole, Donna Summer. It's heartbreaking to think what she's gone thru. Chaka is a survivor!
Yup! So many of the very best artist (of various genres) love her, she's good or great friends with. So, you can only imagine how she feels when they die, and she's asked to sing one more.
My sentiments exactly, Jeff. Life is no cake walk for Chaka Khan, but she never gives up. I don't remember a single year that she ever stopped performing. As a Chaka Khan fan, she has always been there for me!
She knows what she’s doing. She begins slow then goes high then low and then blasts it out! She teases the audience as they beg for more of this unusual pitch, range and abstraction of her voice. Genius!
Thalia T. Chaka grew up as a Catholic !!! However I agree Chaka did Know this song !!! I saw her sing it at Mama Mcclarys Funeral (matriarch of the Mc Clary gospel family) & she tore it up!! In fact she sang without a mic I believe and sung the angels down from heaven!!! Idk why they took it off CZcams!!!
Don't let the fact that she's reading the lyrics off her fan deflect the fact that she can sing it better on the spot than your favs who had a week rehearsal!
Happy Birthday Queen Ladies and gents meatloaf made Put feets toes toenails All up in there Miss Chaka Khan Thank you Maaam Just Amazing. That Skat Ending
Ok, this is for the folks that don't know that is "CHAKA". You have to understand that! She took this song to another level along with the director "Kurt Carr". Also, Chaka had just arrived from the airport and given the lyrics to this song! Give this ICON a break! Raised Catholic and brought the House down like she was "Old School Southern Baptist" with Jazzy twist! Again, THIS IS CHAKA BABY! Sang mama! Over 65 and blowing better than 20 year olds. Autotune my foot!
I am a Muslim and in the same time I appreciates how people express saying goodbye to a dead person in celebrated way. Someday, All of us will go down there to the Lord. May God bless you all. Love from Kuwait 🇰🇼❤
hunny blush I idolize her😫💓.. did you see the Queen and signature color hair and fan looking like the Queen of Upper and Lower Egypt.. giving us Ma'at realness.. she most certainly took up yonder👆😇💯
Chaka doesn’t remember the lyrics to some of her own stuff & the fact she read from the back of that fan and didn’t miss a beat is a testament to her professionalism and musicianship!!!
Of note to those who choose to be critics- her presence, although physically small engulfed the whole church. Look at the faces of those behind her, enthralled by the sheer magnitude of her delivery. As to the use of the fan, she may have been unfamiliar with the song as she was not raised Baptist but rather Catholic. As a fellow recovering Catholic, I wish we had this kind of service as part of our liturgy. Off key or not, Chaka rocked the house, what a great tribute from one Queen to another.
All the haters bashing her performance and she was THE ONLY ONE THEY WANTED AN ENCORE FROM (Take notes ya'll she's and ICON)! So ya'll take a seat. This woman is in her 60's and even her worse you can come close to her gift from God! She was not raised in baptist church! She was raised Catholic and she's more funk, jazz, r&b, and gospel is last! I still think this was this was one of best tributes.
Chaka sang her behind off🥰!!!, took US ALL THE WAY TO CHURCH💒 WHILE WE WERE @ CHURCH🙏🏾.... Then just when you thought 💭 she was thru she BLESSED US AGAIN WITH HER BEAUTIFUL VOICE🎤🎼!!!....Now this is SANGIN’🙌🏾......THE LORD & ARETHA ARE MORE THAN PLEASED W/THIS AWESOME TRIBUTE FROM CHAKA KHAN!
It's sad, but also joyous. Sister Chaka, sings and swings, shuffles and sways her way across that big stage like a magnificent, powerful force of nature.
Wowie wow wow wow! Aretha was surely crying and smiling. Chaka, please forgive me, I know it was a spiritual event, but holy freaking crap!! Unforgettable.
Chaka been singing since the 70's n still can sang no auto tune here just God given talent. Chaka can't even hold the mic to close when let go. Who young or old can do that no one without God's hand on her life...keep singing Chaka luv u❤️
Aretha has been in all our lives for generations, her passing has touch us all, but its Chaka that moved us all with Grace and a voice that touched our souls....
Was there at my Aunty Aretha Franklin's Fune, and have been rewatching this ever since. So many of those celebrities were balling their eyes out. It was mentioned that they had to help Aunty Chaka Khan in the church, she wasn't ready to come inside. Just couldn't get herself to walk inside. She was grieving hard. So for Queen Mother Chaka Khan to even attempt to sing is a blessing in itself. Plus, she's still a legend, a great! #MissChristineChronicles
Only Chaka can do an encore at a funeral. I love it. One of my favorite singers. Queen of funk had everybody on their feet. Chaka did Going Up To Yonder her way. She still can sing. Her voice hasn't change and she is in her 60's. Chaka Khan is an American treasure. Aretha's family were on their feet.
@@tonytate391 He has Parkinson. I have a nerve disease myself which makes it difficult to walk even with a walking stick. But do not believe that it keeps me from working, getting up when something great happens or I want to dance (all with help at times. But you know, if you are kind you always find people to help). Mr Jackson did what is his right, to do whatever he wishes, even someone like you finds it embarrassing. This man walked a lot more than you Sir, which are historical important miles. Your comment is an embarrassment just to yourself, which is a pity because I like to believe that you are not a bad person.

Mrs. Chaka Kahn sung this version her way Indeed. I really enjoy her singing. Who cares what some people. Said about her in their comments. She was honoring the Queen Of Soul. She was singing unto THE LORD. ❤️🙌🏿🙏🏿
That fact that folks like Chaka & Patti even still have access to those upper chest belts so many decades later is crazy. Aretha still had access to toward her later years. These women have always, & will always be THOSE GIRLS on the mic! The best of the best.

That should be the case, but you know that is not true. I avoid funerals. Everyone is always there to look depressed and everything.

What is the name of this song ?
@@juniordacosta885 going up the yonder.
This funeral was better than any awards show I've seen in at least 20 years.
Because the wrong people are in charge of the award shows.
Yes!!!!😀
It was the queen of soul's funeral. It had to be majestic and full of talent.
Unbelievable and so fitting!
I know right!
When she finally broke into that high note! My eyebrows shot up! Stayed that way. Those singers from the 70's are the gods.
Not only your eyebrows, Minister Louis Farrakhan, Michael Eric Dyson and Reverend Jesse Jackson (although, he needed assistance). The whole congregation rose to their feet.
Yep....!
Exactly

great job
thank you Chaka look at Judge Mathis Farrakhan and Jesse and the 3 ladies behind her
she even started to scat
brillant
I'm weak 😂😂😂😂 auntie better sing them lyrics off that fan
Lol yes auntie sho did 😂😂 like a G too.
She said that she was going to be nervous....that's probably why...she knew Aretha' s standards were high and was nervous about messing up. However, she is always amazing and did a fabulous job!!!
🤣🤣🤣
😁😁😁
Bianca Johnson Gladys is cracking up!
Chaka Khan has aged so gracefully.. That's a joyful song, and I am sure Aretha Franklin was singing along and clapping her hands.
Chaka sang that!!! Don't care what people say about her. She every sober. She a legend and will always be a legend.
The Queen of Funk paying homage to the Queen of Soul!
God bless Chaka, even when she off she goes.......right?
@@superdougie10 what?
@@superdougie10 Really! You could have kept that shit!
Perfect description. She took us somewhere at the end. Church and then the after party.
Who would "dislike" THIS? Chaka Khan is the only other female singer who could share a stage with Aretha.
She hit that note so good they had to help Jesse Jackson get up😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Lol 😂😂😂
😅😅😅😅😅😂
He had to get up he felt that high note 🤭🤭
She may not have known the words and read it from the back of a fan, but she still ate that song up, especially the end.😂😂🙌🏽 That choir killed it the entire funeral.

@Justin C wonder who introduced us to that regardless were the more powerful for it deal.
They probably gave her that song last minute. She really wasn't prepared but she pulled it off like an veteran
She said she was nervous about singing.... Fan or no fan, she worked it out!
She’s sung this before at someone else’s funeral with a whole lot more energy. I think she was nervous if anything.
lady o lyrics on back of fan like what? such a Queen👑😉
Everyone knows that song wow!!!!!
Correct
This … I still can't get over. No teleprompter -- just a FAN
lol
Words were on the fan.
It's a long song . I don't blame her .
She’s old school. Put it paper and glue it to the fan... don’t need no dang teleprompter. True legend.
😂😂😂
The funk queen honoring the queen of the soul. I love. From Brazil

Totally agree. I love her! God gave her a gift and she uses it!
She is great.I admire her.I dont care if she reads off a fan.She rocks your soul
@@josephfleetjr4230 You know it
She learned that from the Queen. Areths rarely ever started a sound full throttle. She learned to build the sing and draw you in.
That choir director is PHENOMENAL!

Love that her pipes haven't deteriorated after so many decades of hitting those crazy notes. What a blessing!
only chaka khan can read lyrics from a fan and slay the shit out of a song
Wow! She put it Down
And they all stood, every one.
Thalia T. Chaka grew up as a Catholic !!! However I agree Chaka did Know this song !!!
I saw her sing it at Mama Mcclarys Funeral (matriarch of the Mc Clary gospel family) & she tore it up!! In fact she sang without a mic I believe and sung the angels down from heaven!!! Idk why they took it off CZcams!!!
Thalia T. It isn’t a lie, she came with the fan and the lyrics were taped on the back. And she looks at the fan repeatedly through the whole songs.
Exactly! LOL
Don't let the fact that she's reading the lyrics off her fan deflect the fact that she can sing it better on the spot than your favs who had a week rehearsal!
Happy Birthday Queen

That's correct, she slayed it! Lyrics on a fan or whatever! Great job Chaka Khan
PERIOD
Chaka was Aretha’s favorite female singer!!! End of story!!!
The end was moving... especially when she came back out. That choir/background singers slayed too!
Two spot on finales which just fitted so perfectly, that is what is possible with the love of people 😍
Everyone in the congregation was part of the choir too.

Nicki Minaj could play Chaka in a movie!
Charmaine Mcleo she always reminds me at Nicky minaj
Charmaine Mcleo right
was just think that..not a day older..best I ever seen her
No joke, I want this to play at my funeral.
Chaka's Voice sends chills everytime. Power, Control and showmenship all while reading off a fan
Trust me my girl has not aged, love it
Not as good as she had back in the 1970s, but it's still one from a higher shelf.

You are right she was off ....
Or tipsy one !! At first I was like "What the hell "
