(Radio.com) For Prince fans, Minnesota was the place to be on Thursday evening (Oct. 13), as Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan and others delivered a five-hour tribute concert to the late music legend.
Other highlight performers at the Xcel Energy Center event included 3RDEYEGIRL, Tori Kelly, Jessie J and Nicole Scherzinger. Despite a venue change and last-minute cancellations by John Mayer, Christina Aguilera and Anita Baker, reports the BBC.
The concert included performances and speeches by the late singer's friends, family, collaborators and former bandmates. R&B act Mint Condition performed "America," "DMSR," and "When Doves Cry," while pop stars Jessie J sang "Nothing Compares 2 U" and Nicole Scherzinger covered "Nasty Girl" and "Baby I'm a Star."
Chaka Khan and Wonder shared the stage for a duet of "I Feel for You" off Prince's debut album, and Wonder played harmonica. Then they launched into a rousing performance of "1999." Watch a clip of their performance here.
