True, but Prince did write Chaka Khan's hit "I Feel for You," although he did not write the song for her specifically. Prince allegedly penned "I Feel For You" as a valentine to one of his crushes, jazz-funk queen Patrice Rushen, and included it on his 1979 self-titled album. Prince was too busy with "Purple Rain" to appear on Chaka Khan's recording of his song. "Prince [had] schedule problems, couldn't do it," producer Arif Mardin said. Interestingly, Stevie Wonder performed the harmonica solo on Chaka Khan's recording of "I Feel For You" which also samples Wonder’s 1963 song “Fingertips.” He also wrote the Rufus hit song "Tell Me Something Good" with Chaka Khan on lead vocals. Stevie Wonder said that he loved Chaka Khan’s voice and always wanted to write a song that would suit her vocals. During a 1999 interview with Larry King, Prince opened up about Stevie Wonder, calling him a "role model." That sentiment was reciprocated by Stevie Wonder. "I feel honored, but he influenced me too," Wonder said. Lots of musical connections among those three.
