Anita Baker is getting support from her fellow A-lister Taylor Swift during her ongoing fight to gain control of her masters.
More details below…
Taking to Twitter, Baker wrote:
“Her creations bought & sold Again & Again, wouldnt even let her do *A Buy Out*…Taylor Swift *re-recording, her Catalog/Taylor’s Version. The GoodFight Go… Gurrrrl.”
The support from the music legend, then led the ‘Cardigan’ singer to respond, saying:
“I’m cheering you on in your fight to get back your work, and appreciate your support so much!! Thank you.”
I’m cheering you on in your fight to get back your work, and appreciate your support so much!! Thank you 🙏 💗

Neither artist is a stranger to fighting for control of their masters. Swift had her own highly publicized battle over hers after Scooter Braun bought the rights to them for $300 million, which led her to re-record her old material.
As previously mentioned, Baker is now in the fight for her masters too. She appeared to launch her campaign over the concept of copyright reversion, a provision of U.S. copyright law that allows musicians and songwriters to regain control over works that were held by labels and/or publishers after a 35-year period. This would apply to her albums ‘Songstress’ and ‘Rapture.’
As the dispute continues, the ‘Sweet Love’ singer has asked fans to stop streaming her music (as we reported here).
In the meantime, we love to see the continued support behind Baker and support Swift for standing up for her.

She is everything that you can’t be, a real black woman. While you stay mad because you can’t afford the 𝐬𝐞𝐱 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐲 to be a real woman.
THIS! 💯🤣
Shayla Morgan, go take care of your homely ass baby 🤣 Your house is too ugly to play Anita Baker’s music anyways 😂🤳🏽💋 And Danzou’s mama sells flat ass and meth mouth sloppy top 🤣
Taylor is QUEEN! Anita could never 💯
Taylor can’t sing. Anita can sang.
Taylor is a multi-talented, Grammy award-winning singer, songwriter and producer. And one of the BEST-SELLING ARTISTS OF ALL TIME.
Shayla looks at her baby in a daze like……this can’t be life 🤣

Let me tell you something Taylor couldn’t do yesterday. Take Prince Bieber out the No. 1 spot where he had his largest Peaches streaming day yet in the US and worldwide. Bigger than last Friday. ❤️
Talk of the charts
@justinbieber
Peaches is the most stable song first week on Spotify this decade. It hits a new daily high in streams of 7,167,120 on today’s global Spotify chart.
But I love real competition, proves you are truly slaying. ❤️
Can y’all ban this Gayla Q**** Imbecile?
Please.
Thank you lol 🙏🏽
Taylor is doing too much…. mind yo own damn business.
Rapture forever. ❤️ We love Anita. ❤️
Anita is an 8x Grammy winner. Love her voice and she deserves to own her work!!
Own it for what? She won’t be around much longer. She want it buried with her dead ass?
OMG 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you went there 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 so true 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shayla and Danzou are so ugly lmaooooo 😂
And what gives you the right to call judgement on how long somebody is going to live For? With your energy, don’t be surprised if Anita outlives you.
The only thing that looks ugly is your mom’s stretched out ass hole.
That comment about is for Ashy CLOWN.
