Chaka Khan (born Yvette Marie Stevens; March 23, 1953) is an American singer-songwriter who gained fame in the seventies as the front woman and focal point of the funk band Rufus. While still a member of the group in 1978, Khan embarked on a successful solo career.
"C.K." is the eighth studio album by Chaka Khan, released on the Warner Bros. Records label in 1988. "C.K." was Khan's first album not to be recorded with Arif Mardin, instead it had, with the exception of two tracks, Russ Titelman at the helm as producer.
Musically "C.K." combined a variety of genres such as soul, R&B, funk, pop as well as two jazz titles and altogether the set was more laid-back, less hip-hop influenced and production-wise not as complex and synth-driven as her previous albums.
"Baby Me" became another Top 10 hit on the R&B chart for Khan, peaking at #8.
The "C.K." album itself charted at #17 on the R&B Albums chart.
Personnel on "Baby Me":
Chaka Khan (all vocals)
Chris Jasper (keyboards, guitar, drum programming, backing vocals)
Ron Skies (synth programming)
Warren Hill (alto sax)
Carol Steele (congas)
Arranged by Chris Jasper
