Chaka Khan records tribute song,, Trayvon Martin’s untimely death has brought together an outpouring of support from the celebrity community, including R&B stars who gathered for a tribute song to the slain teenager.

Chaka Khan, Eric Benet, Terry Crews, Angela Bassett, “X Factor"’s Stacey Francis and others collaborated to re-record Khan’s “Super Life” in memory of the 17-year-old who was shot to death in February. In the video for “Super Life,” the singers all dress in hoodies like the one Martin was wearing when he was killed.

Khan premiered the video Monday night on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight. During the interview with Morgan, Khan explained why she felt it was necessary to collaborate with other artists on the song saying, “This is not anything to make money. It is simply to cause and to bring about awareness.”

Khan also told Morgan she is fed up with the way the black community has been victimized in America. “We are sick and tired in America of seeing little children lost and children gone missing and they never make the nine o’clock or five o’clock news," she said.

Celebrities have also joined the thousands-strong protests and "million hoodie" marches taking place across the nation, especially in New York and Los Angeles. Janelle Monae, Lebron James and Chaka Khan have all voiced their support for Trayvon’s family and called for justice to be served.
