Anita Baker Claps Back at Critics Over Alleged Luther Vandross & Babyface Beefs

Sweet love was the last thing Anita Baker was doling out Tuesday (June 6) when she took to Twitter to set the record straight about her alleged beef with current tourmate Babyface.

The Queen of Quiet Storm caused a royal frenzy among her fans when she responded to critics who called her out about reported primadonna behavior during the ongoing ‘Songstress Tour,’ which allegedly includes blocking the legendary singer-producer from opening for her at the jaunt’s Newark stop at the top of May.

Despite both acts taking to press to clear up the confusion, Baker’s still been on the receiving end of harsh criticism from concertgoers who say she is routinely late to shows and more.

Tired of the hoopla, the 65-year-old hit back at some of the detractors head on. Look inside to see what she said.

Although it wasn’t clear who Anita was talking about in her initial tweet on Monday (June 5) about “people turning on her” (seen above), some viewers took it as subliminal references to some of her headline-grabbing beefs.

One fan incorrectly called out the ‘Just Because‘ singer’s reported bad blood with Babyface and fellow R&B singer-songwriter Maxwell, while others not only agreed but went further to suggest she has a history of beef with male tourmates by referencing the well-reported 80’s feud she had with late R&B legend Luther Vandross.

She wasted no time getting them all together.

The response gained so much traction on the social media platform it led the original commenter to delete his post.

Don’t mess with Auntie!
