"I'll Be There" is a song by the band CHIC featuring Nile Rodgers. It was produced by Rodgers and Bernard Edwards. It is the lead single for the band's upcoming album "It's About Time," scheduled for a 2017 release. Since Rodgers is the act's founder and only original member, he received billing credit on the song.

The single pays tribute to the disco era and makes references to Chic-related songs and artists produced by the group. Among the referenced tracks (and acts) mentioned and sampled:

The song reached number one on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Songs chart in its June 20, 2015 issue, and was the act's fourth number one overall, and their first number-one single in nearly 23 years when "Chic Mystique" peaked at number one, in 1992.
