Chanel - My Life (Audio only)

- Rich as the legendary name Coco Chanel implies, this talented female vocalist,
Chanel has slowly and delicately designed a fortune in her voice.
After many years of investment in her talent, this songwriter, performer and vocal arranger has quite an impressive history for one not to be signed to a major label. Chanel attended Dillard School of the Performing Arts, and she went on to receive a B.A. Degree in Mass Communications from Bethune-Cookman College where she performed in the Concert Choir, Vesper Chorus and the Gospel Choir.
The result is the luxurious, soothing voice, which can be heard atop melodic and rhythmic sounds on her latest project, produced by Alex "Godson" Richbourg (Janet Jackson, etc.), Anthony "TC" Cunningham (Derrick Dixon, Kelly Price, Chandra, etc.) and Adam Blackstone (Vivienne Green, John Legend, etc.), and co-written by Kiesha Miles (Ciara, Xscape, etc.).
Her debut single, "My Life," which is backed by the instantly recognizable Crusaders sample from their classic hit 'Street Life', over which Chanel has layered a self-penned soul track that has already become a cult hit in the U.K.
The original MAPP promo found its way to the offices of Smooth FM where the unsigned, unknown track was soon causing the switchboard to jam every time it was played and has now become the most requested track on their play list. Chanel's single, "My Life," reached 1 on Music Week's Upfront Club Top 40. "My Life" is currently on the in-flight play list to Hong Kong.
Chanel has been influenced by the rich, soulful sounds of Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight, and Jill Scott. Knowing her voice is a God given blessing, she uses this mantra as food for thought, "If you equip yourself with the strength to survive all that tries to fail you, rejection will only be a temporary condition.

I remember hearing this song play on loop on jazz fm back in 2002
😍
Nearly 20 years ago! 😳
And me .... heavy rotation on Jazz FM in the day
2024 ont et la
A much better sample/mix than it was ever given credit for. This deserved WAAAAAY more commercial successful than it actually achieved
How do people only know about the remix of this song, and they don't even know who sings it...this original is cold, priceless and rare. This is why it hasn't got so many views a lot of the younger generation don't know about Chanel, but this is real music! My mother used to play this to me when I was younger
Always love it
So share the original
Where the heck was I all this time?? I only heard it today on Jazz FM and I was blown away!!
The old tunes are the best. Always makes me want to dance
I just found this song whilst going through old CD compilations I burned years ago. OMG! NOSTALGIA! THIS IS SWEET TREASURE!
Such a tune, back in the old days, i have it on vinyl.xx
Can't get enough of this, truly a classic - in all its forms
TUUUUUUUNEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love, love, love this so much ♥ ♥ ♥
Very nice tune.
Soulful R&B

@tsangari I'ts the 'Street Life' sample at the beginning that caused the problem, there is a version without the sample on.

why has this tune gotten so rare> even iTunes and google play have pulled it from their stores, its really annoying
It got pulled because it sampled Street life, there is a legal version, but it's not as good!
Too hot for the platform
