Funk legend Chaka Khan unveiled an exuberant video for “Like Sugar,” the singer’s first song in over a decade. The Kim Gehrig-directed video features an array of dancers grooving to the track, with Parisian duo I Could Never Be a Dancer providing the choreography. The dancers’ already mesmerizing moves are looped, duplicated and layered, allowing them to move with the song in unexpected ways, and giving the clip an engrossing GIF-like quality. Chaka Khan released “Like Sugar” earlier this month. Former Major Lazer producer Switch produced the song, which was the first to be released on his new label, Diary Records. Diary Records will also release Chaka Khan’s next album, which will mark her first since 2007’s Funk This. A release date and title are expected to be announced soon.
