Chaka Khan

In my thirties, I felt I had hold of one of the reins some of the time.

Well. I'm probably not loving myself like I should, but I'm really trying.

To me, this degree was an acknowledgment of my work in music.

Well, I actually wrote her a letter a couple of days ago congratulating her. The tone I tried to convey in the letter is, look, you are a part of a great American historical process.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

There's nothing more fun than sitting in a circle playing with people who are really into it.
