Chaka Khan – Rufus, born in 1953
If Chaka Khan isn’t mentioned, a list of the major players in the industry is incomplete. Known by some as the “Queen of Funk,” she owns multiple awards, with over 70 million copies of her albums sold worldwide. Although she has struggled with drug issues in the past and acknowledged needing rehabilitation, it was a better choice than possibly facing jail time for drug abuse, which would have been extremely costly in legal fees. In February 2019, her fans were thrilled when she released a new album called “Hello Happiness.”
