The whole song is constructed around a single baseline (sampled from Fatback’s 1975 hit ‘Do The Bus Stop’) and each verse is just a lyrical repeat of the last.

Produced by Switch of Major Lazer fame, ‘Like Sugar’ is a deceptively simple track, essentially only consisting of two parts- verse and chorus. Khan, however, has dropped an absolute bomb and undisputedly hit the metaphorical nail on the head. As consistently demonstrated, veteran artists don’t always get things right when trying to bring their music into the present, Sting and Shaggy’s 2018 collaboration 44/876 being a hilarious example of this. So, after such a dry spell, it’s come as a bit of shock and potentially a worry when Khan announces a new single seemingly out of nowhere. Switch’s incredibly inventive production work on this record keeps listeners on their toes as each second brings something beautifully fresh Classics such as ‘Ain’t Nobody’, ‘I’m Every Woman’ and ‘I Feel For You’, iconic in their own right, are mega hits that have come to define Khan as ‘The Queen of Funk’ and are rightfully staple pieces of the 80s decade. Titles: Ain't Nobody * At Midnight (My Love Will Lift You Up) * Dance Wit Me * I Feel for You * I Know You, I Live You * I'm Every Woman * Love Me Still * Once You Get Started * Papillon (Hot Butterfly) * Stay * Sweet Thing * Tell Me Something Good * Through the Fire * What Cha' Gonna Do for Me? * You Got the Love.It’s been over a decade since Chaka Khan’s last solo release and, for the most part, her name is one that’s synonymous with the past.
