Nile Rodgers is a musical icon — a composer, producer, arranger, and guitarist whose unmistakable groove has shaped generations. Inducted into both the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and honored with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, he also serves as Apple Music’s Producer-in-Residence and Chairman of the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
As co-founder of CHIC, Rodgers redefined the sound of pop, disco, and dance with era-defining anthems like “Le Freak,” the biggest-selling single in the history of Atlantic Records, and “Good Times,” the track that helped launch the hip-hop revolution. His influence extended through the CHIC Organization’s iconic productions including “We Are Family” by Sister Sledge and “I’m Coming Out” by Diana Ross.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Rodgers’ production work for global superstars such as David Bowie (“Let’s Dance”), Madonna (“Like a Virgin”), and Duran Duran (“The Reflex”) helped sell over 500 million albums and 100 million singles worldwide, solidifying his status as one of the most prolific hitmakers in music history.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
In recent years, Rodgers has continued to expand his creative reach with boundary-breaking collaborations that bridge generations and genres. He co-wrote and performed on “Unforgiven” by global K-pop phenomenon LE SSERAFIM, appeared on “Honey Boy” by Purple Disco Machine and Benjamin Ingrosso (featuring Shenseea), “Just a Dance” with Alfie Templeman, “For Life” with Kygo and Zack Abel, and “Talk to Me” with Damiano David and Tyla.

From CHIC’s dance-floor classics to Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky,” Beyoncé’s “Cuff It” and “Lévi’s Jeans,” and his latest global hits, Nile Rodgers remains the pulse of modern music — a bridge between the timeless and the cutting edge.
