(November 18, 2022) Indira Khan, aka I.Khan, began her musical career at an early age. The daughter of legendary singer Chaka Khan, the chanteuse started performing as a child, and was only a teen when she was signed to Motown as part of the act Pretty In Pink.
Indira went on to work with artists ranging from Johnny Gill to Miki Howard while also maintaining her solo career as a singer, songwriter, and actress (she played her mother in the TV One movie Love Under New Management).
For her newest single, “LoveShip” Khan teams with producer Kannon “Caviar” Cross on a song that sports a richly unusual arrangement on top of a steady dance beat. And her voice — certainly reminiscent of her mother’s but with a tasty rasp — sounds great up front, alternating between whispery coos and straight up soul jamming as she warns her man not to let this chance at love pass him by.
Check out “LoveShip” and welcome I.Khan back to SoulTracks.
