We thought Anita Baker laid all the drama surrounding her tour with Babyface to rest but looks like things have taken a turn for the worse.
Chile twitter is on fire and Anita got the gas can because she refuses to take any more disrespect from “Kenny’s Crazies”.
According to TMZ Anita Baker wants the R&B king to tell his fans he’s not the most royal member on The Songstress Tour!
On Monday, Anita ripped into Babyface and a random smattering of his followers on Twitter, continuing her tirade from the day before.
According to Anita, Babyface has been breaching his contract as an opening act by staying onstage past his set time, which cuts into her headlining performance.
Dearest one. You are Not, privy to *The Contracts*. Yes, Babyface is Special Guest❤️/Support Act, on My Tour. This False Narrative, of A Co-headliner is creating Unrealistic Expectations & Aggression, from his fans towards me. He should tell you guys, the Truth https://t.co/avBuMPO60b pic.twitter.com/oOeSVfg7DZ

Fans lashed out at Anita for not acknowledging Babyface as her equal — to which she informed him the “Whip Appeal” singer is certainly NOT … at least as where The Songstress Tour is concerned.
The multi-city event is supposed to be celebrating the 40th anniversary of Anita’s debut album … but things have mostly been boiling in beef.
It was 9:30pm.
*Contractually?…
It was WAAAY Past time 4 the Headline Performer, to be On Stage/Anita Baker

Back in May, Babyface assured TMZ that he and Anita were cool after his set was cut during the New Jersey show … and this was after a 2-hour delay.
Now she is telling him to call off his fans!
Kenny's Crazies are online Bullies. @Babyface Please call off, your fans. I have been Only Kind and Supportive, of You, as the Special Guest/Support, on My Tour

After schooling her followers about Babyface and his contract, she seemingly suggested that Babyface ‘hates’ Beyonce, which has us all sorts of confused.
He hates, Beyonce, as well

I never indulged myself by people who make it their full time job stirring the pot cooking up stuff without the recipe and the ingredients. Always with Ms. Baker!!! Been there and done that with my own family. Music is a challenging business.????

I came to protect the queen. Until I realized I was blocked! What did I do??? I literally went to three shows. Took my dad, mom, and went with my partner. I went to tag you, and couldn’t! This is my backup account, but wow, my feelings hurt.

That way Anita Baker's team is mishandling her social media, by the end of the day, she might lose the few fans she still has left.

Anita Baker is a Legend, who I will always respect and admire for her unparalleled contribution to music. HOWEVER, I do not feel sorry for the press she's getting now. Rude is an understatement. Signed, a lifelong fan now blocked on Twitter by AB. pic.twitter.com/WEPR3nTA0H
