In 2019, Chaka Khan, music icon and grande dame of the 70s and 80s, released her first album in over ten years. For the superfunky pre-album single Like Sugar, Kim Gehrig created a video in which dancers’ movements are looped to the rhythm of the music. A simple idea, energetic and masterfully executed. Stylish, energetic and utterly infectious. – Jessica Manstetten
