Chaka Khan didn’t hold back in her interview with Vlad TV. After reiterating her disdain for Kanye West’s “Through The Wire,” the legendary singer saluted Anderson .Paak yet dismissed Ariana Grande when comedian Luenell questioned the 67-year-old vocalist about working with younger artists.
“Fuck her, she’s alright,” Khan said of Grande. “She’s good on her own. She don’t need– plus, I don’t wanna sing with another woman. I ain’t got nothing to say, OK, with a woman. You say it by yourself. We ain’t gonna talk about no man. We not gonna do none of that stuff. It’s not happening.”
Luenell commented, “This is what an old boss bitch can do. You can say shit like that.”
“Yes, I can,” Khan responded. “And I can do it. I’m not gonna do no song with no heifer.”
