Tracy Chapman (Cleveland, Ohio - 30 de marzo de 1964) es una cantautora estadounidense ganadora de varios premios Grammy y conocida por el éxito de canciones como "Fast Car", "Talkin' Bout a Revolution", "Baby Can I Hold You" y "Give Me One Reason".
Desde muy pequeña aprendió a tocar la guitarra, y ya de niña empezó a crear sus primeras canciones. Es a partir de 1980, durante su etapa en la universidad de Tufts, en Massachusetts, donde se graduó en antropología y estudios africanos, cuando comienza a componer en serio.
