Wow!! You actually hit a major nerve! That was among Chaka Khan's greatest accomplishments, with Arif Mardin, her producer! They had so much fun creating great and memorable music! It's hard to believe they created the great songs, I'm Every Woman, I Feel For You and Be Bop Medley, together. Chaka Khan has balls and is fearless as a singer. Few American singers combine the broad musicality of Chaka Khan, with such verve and sass! Be Bop Medley is a masterpiece!...To experience another corner of Chaka's vocal ability in the area of jazz, try a selection from her Echoes Of An Era (1982), like I Love You Porgy, Take The A Train or Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most. If you want more recent jazzy tunes, try a selection from ClassiKhan (2004), like Hey Big Spender, Goldfinger, Round Midnight or The Best Is Yet To Come. All great selections! It's fun to hear these songs and see your reactions! Enjoy the process of discovering the great Chaka Khan!
Bebop is the genre, Originally inspired by Dizzie Gillespie circa late 1940's thru early 1960's. I'm a big fan of Chaka's. Here are some jazz recommendations. 1. A Night In Tunisia (And The Melody Still Lingers On) - th-cam.com/video/buak93rw3nU/w-d-xo.html 2 .I Mean You - th-cam.com/video/OqZMl07d68g/w-d-xo.html 3. High Wire - th-cam.com/video/mlA-qmmC8ic/w-d-xo.html 4. My Funny Valentine - th-cam.com/video/9MGIvfQuxU4/w-d-xo.html 5. Hazel Hips - th-cam.com/video/S7eaCGnvCsE/w-d-xo.html 6. Don't Go To Strangers - th-cam.com/video/BegAY6mVnO8/w-d-xo.html
You may find Jimi Hendrix remake castles in the sand from her funk this album. This is be bop. That old dizzy Gillespie Bird sound. I believe it's what she was aiming for

That’s what you call “jazz fusion”
