In recent years, it has been drawn a lot of attention to the question of whether logistic kinetics is sufficient to enforce the global existence of classical solutions or to prevent finite-time blow-up in various chemotaxis models. However, for several important chemotaxis models, only in the space two dimensional setting, it has been shown that logistic kinetics is sufficient to enforce the global existence of classical solutions (see [15] and [34]). The current paper is to give a confirmed answer to the above question for the following parabolic-elliptic chemotaxis system with singular sensitivity and logistic source in any space dimensional setting, \begin{equation} \begin{cases} u_t=\Delta u-\chi\nabla\cdot (\frac{u}{v} \nabla v)+u(a(x,t)-b(x,t) u),\quad x\in \Omega\cr 0=\Delta v-\mu v+\nu u,\quad x\in \Omega \quad \cr \frac{\partial u}{\partial n}=\frac{\partial v}{\partial n}=0,\quad x\in\partial\Omega, \end{cases} \end{equation} where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary $\partial\Omega$, $\chi$ is the singular chemotaxis sensitivity coefficient, $a(x,t)$ and $b(x,t)$ are positive smooth functions, and $\mu,\nu$ are positive constants. We prove that, for any given nonnegative initial data $0\not\equiv u_0\in C^0(\bar \Omega)$, (0.1) has a unique globally defined classical solution $(u(t,x;u_0),v(t,x;u_0))$ with $u(0,x;u_0)=u_0(x)$, which shows that, in any space dimensional setting, logistic kinetics is sufficient to enforce the global existence of classical solutions and hence prevents the occurrence of finite-time blow-up even for arbitrarily large $\chi$. In addition, the solutions are shown to be uniformly bounded under the conditions $a_{\inf}>\frac{\mu \chi^2}{4}$ when $\chi \leq 2$ and $a_{\inf}>\mu (\chi-1)$ when $\chi>2$.
