Spin (1/97, p.89) - "...the last Aretha, her huskiness a touchstone as black pop skips by the church..."
Entertainment Weekly (12/20/96, p.76) - "EPIPHANY should solidify Khan's standing as one of the very best soul singers of the '70s and '80s..."
- Rating: A-
Muzik (2/97, p.114) - 9 out of 10 - "...this greatest hits and more package should go straight to Number One....Who said perfection isn't perfect? Take note: acquire this immediately."
An icon of R&B, vibrant singer Chaka Khan first came to attention as the vocalist for 1970s funk band Rufus, for whom she sang such enduring hits as "Tell Me Something Good" and "Sweet Thing." After Khan ventured into the inevitable solo career, the hits kept coming well into the '80s. In fact, the hip-hop-inflected smash "I Feel For You" brought her music to a whole new generation of listeners. Subsequently, Khan has proved herself more versatile than some ever might have guessed, even releasing an album of jazz standards in 2004.
