* AscendedFanon: Two songs that SampledUp Chic originals have ended up being incorporated back into the Chic tracks when played live:
** "Good Times" started being played as a medley with "Rappers Delight" almost as soon as the latter was released, and has been played that way ever since.
** A similar thing happened with Modjo's "Lady (Hear Me Tonight)" being put into a medley with Chic's original "Soup For One" - the latter being Rescued From The Scrappy Heap as a result.
* AuthorExistenceFailure: Bernard Edwards passed away from complications of pneumonia shortly after their reunion concert in Japan. Nile has carried on the band ever since.
* BreakawayPopHit: They wrote and produced Carly Simon's hit "Why" for the film ''Soup For One''. The film and even the soundtrack album have long since slipped into obscurity, but the song remains familiar and has attracted quite a few cover versions.
* CareerResurrection: After the duo broke up, Nile's work did not sell as well and it wasn't until David Bowie heard his solo album that he commissioned Nile to write him a hit, resulting in "Let's Dance". The song renewed both their careers and Nile has remained an in-demand producer since, as well as reforming Chic and carrying on the band as a popular live act after Bernard's death.
