Anita Baker may be celebrating her 64th birthday today (January 26), but it appears she’s the one handing out the gifts.
Details inside:
After previous reports of an intent to retire from the music industry all together, the R&B legend – dubbed the “Queen of Quiet Storm” – sent her faithful fans into a royal frenzy last December when she confirmed she’d ended a dispute with her label over the ownership of her iconic catalog. That legal victory was apparently just the reinvigoration needed to send the diva back into the studio as she also announced she was working on new music.
As if that wasn’t enough, she also revealed she was plotting a return to Vegas after selling out a brief residency at the Sin City’s Venetian Resort in 2019.
Making good on the promise, Anita took to Twitter early Wednesday morning (as seen above) to tell her 626,000 followers that she’d be bringing her brigade of hits like ‘Sweet Love,’ ‘Caught Up in the Rapture,’ and ‘I Apologize’ to a Las Vegas stage in the spring.
As of time reported, the specific date(s) and venue have not been reported.
The update comes amid excitement for a number of Baker projects including a forthcoming memoir and biopic as well as new music.
And I bet this legendary queen won’t cancel or postpone 😘
I can’t wait to purchase my ticket !
Who? The new generation dunno this old h**. Bet even Monica stan’s great great grandson dunno a thang bout her. lol
You’re a f****** LIE. Theeeee Anita Baker is a multi platinum selling 8x Grammy award winner who’s VERY much relevant today although she hasn’t dropped an album in 18 years. Her music is STILL in rotation and she’s HIGHLY respected. She just had a sold out retirement tour that lasted for 2 years. Lmaoooooo Monica could NEVER 💯 stfu
I bet they know the new generation know your momma though.
Don’t let you disdain for Monica cloud your judgment hun. Anita Baker is a bonafide legend in the R&B and jazz world. She has one of the greatest discographies in the business.
As if Anita needs this generation to know her. Jokes on you😂😂😂 Anita is already a millionaire with dozens of awards and platinum plaques. This generation better stick with Olivia Rodrigo and Harry Styles 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not as big a flop as Monica
Anita Baker isn’t a f****** flop at all you turd!!! The closest Monica could EVER get to Anita is covering her legendary single “Angel”. You gay bottoms on here are stupid as f***!

It doesn’t matter when it was. 5 platinum albums, 1 gold and 8 Grammy Awards. Anita is legendary. You’re a pathetic blog troll with no accolades. Remain in misery.😘
Will Monica be working the concession stand?
