About this episode
Chaka Khan has long held the title of "Queen of Funk," but after this appearance, shall also henceforth be known as the "Queen of Candor." Khan, who this year turns 70 and celebrates 50 years in the music business, joins Andrew and gets a few things off her chest. What's the one thing every performer who hopes to be successful must do? Why are men intimidated by her? What's the best way to steal a gun from a cop? Which young diva-in-the-making needs to learn some damned manners? PLUS: The surprising reason Sly went silent. AND: Why she believes whoever edited Rolling Stone's "200 Greatest Singers of All Time" list needs an appointment with an audiologist. Smelling salts should be included with this one.
