Prince has worked with Chaka Khan several times over the course of their careers. However, up until the release of "Pain" on the Living Single soundtrack, "Sticky Wicked" was the first Prince track, performed by Chaka, to ever be officially released. The styles of the two artists are quite comparable as Chaka does a terrific job with "Sticky Wicked." The track is flavored with Prince's penchant for writing intriguing harmonies. His funky guitar work is also a highlight of the mid-tempo jam. Also present on CK is a cover of the Prince-penned "Eternity," which was performed earlier by Sheena Easton on her album No Sound But A Heart.
