    Angela Bofill was a singer songwriter of Cuban Puerto Rican origins. A New York native, she began her professional career in the mid-1970s and is most known for singles such as “This Time I'll Be Sweeter” Angel Of The Night” and I Try.

    I know her from singing the song Tonight I Give In. It was number 12 on the US R&B chart in 1983. When I heard Angela Bofill sing that song, I thought it was the most beautiful song that I ever heard in my life in the 80s. I remember her performing Tonight I Give In and Too Tough on Soul Train in 1983.

    It made me sad to see the news yesterday on social media that Angela Bofill had passed away. She passed away on June 13, 2024 at the age of 70. People were posting on social media and remembering her. Angela was and is loved.

    Rufus keyboardist David "Hawk" Wolinski wrote the song around a repeating synthesizer loop backed by a Linn LM-1 drum computer; however, John "JR" Robinson, the band's drummer, played real drums for the recording session.

    “Ain't Nobody” is a great dance song. It's a great song to learn to dance to.

    I'm Gail Nobles. What's the title of Chaka Khan's song?
    (Ain't Nobody) is today's topic.
