Chaka Khan Recalls Kanye Asking Sample Permission

Chaka Khan Recalls Kanye Asking Sample Permission

Before Kanye West sampled a well-known Chaka Khan song for one of his biggest singles, “Through The Wire,” West personally asked the singer if he could do so. Speaking to BET.com, Chaka Khan revealed that she wasn't exactly ecstatic about it in the beginning.

“I’m not a big fan of sampling, I have to say” Khan admitted. “I come from that school where we did our own stuff.”

However, Khan did express her delight when Kanye told her why he wanted to sample her 1985 single, “Through The Fire.”

“I was honored when Kanye did call because he told me that he had an [automobile] accident and that he was listening to ‘Through The Fire’ everyday and that that song had assisted his recovery," Khan recalled. "But he had changed the words to ‘Through the Wire’ because his mouth was wired. Little did I know that he was going to speed it up 35 thousand times, but still I was honored to. It was nice that he asked.”

In related news, Chaka Khan will be honored at the 2009 Soul Train Awards, set to air on Sunday, November 29th at 9PM/8c. The ceremony will air on both BET and its brand new network Centric.
