    Artist History
    We’ve all heard the howls late at night. It’s Chaka Khan’s Pitbull coming to get you. Like the werewolf or Jesus, this mythical creature only comes out on the darkest of nights and devours the purest of souls. It all started in the basement of a certain R&B singer--we won’t mention any names--late one September night. With a penchant for genetic experiments, this evil-minded singer spliced the DNA of a pitbull terrier and one of those mini corndog things from Wienerschnitzel. She thought it would make a good snack. Anyway, the result was absolutely terrifying, because out of the twisted, burning wreckage arose Chaka Khan’s Pitbull (consequently named after its creator, who shall remain nameless).But after much prodding by his good friends in the band Pseudo Echo, Chaka Khan’s Pitbull has come out of hiding to record his music. It looks like it may have been a bad career move.
