Trivia: Which disco singer’s real name is Yvette Marie Stevens?
Chaka Khan
Donna Summer
Patti LaBelle
Gloria Gaynor
The correct answer is Chaka Khan
So why is this answer correct? : Chaka Khan adopted her new name in 1969 after being inspired by the Black Panther political movement. Khan had many hits with the funk band Rufus, including the hit “Ain’t Nobody” in 1983, and she continued to record with them over the years. Khan released her first solo record in 1978, which included the disco and R&B fusion song “I’m Every Woman,” which was famously re-recorded by Whitney Houston in 1992.
