I'm from Detroit and Ms. Baker hasn't toured or performed in over 10+ years, so her voice should be on point. However, I'm sorry to disappoint you but her voice has changed and it's not on point, at least here on this performance. However, she doesn't sound bad at all. I have heard better from her. This is more of a B performance and not a 5 Star 🌟 performance from Ms. Baker. As you no, with age and a lack of utilizing your voice overtime can work just the same way as over utilizing your voice. With that being said she still past the test of time.
Still even now she can sing like she did on the track. Her voice is eternal, 40+ years and it still sounds the same. Such an amazing artist and singer. I’m glad I was introduced to her along with the other greats when I was younger. Her, Teena, Sade, Switch, Aretha, Janet, Gap band, Ralfi Pagan, Debarge, Bobby B., Luther, Babyface, Teddy, Kenny, Keith, and the list goes on.
What burns my biscuits with folks like you is...JUST BECAUSE YOU AGE DOES NOT MEAN YOU LOOSE YOURE TALENT IF ITS PRESERVED WELL...BEING OVER 40 IS NOT OLD...ITS PEOPLE OVER 40 WITH MORE YOUTH THAT PEOPLE UNDER 40
@@miystiqueskillz2233 Folks like me tend to think that because it has happened with lots of people who’ve gotten up in age, sure, it does last if you maintain it. But if you’re a top of the top performer who’s constantly performing cuz you’re locked into a contract and have to, it’s not the same case. Also, naturally your voice gets weaker with age,her voice is still as strong as then, maybe a little weaker, but now she can’t really go for as long. And it’s not really to put her down, she’s human, idve expected more to happen but no, it’s still great, at 64 years old. Not 40, not 50, 64 years old. She’s been singing for over 4 decades, that’s incredible.
So love Anita Baker! From her rich voice to her locked hair! Anita was the inspiration to wear my hair in a pixie hair cut. Before there was Halle Berry, there was Anita Baker!
AB-SO-LUTE-LY!!! I was there to witness that back in the day WITH CLASSY SINGERS!!! Shoulder pads, knee length skirts, short cuts with fade, pixy dangly jewelry bracelets...simple and elegant!!! Gone Ms. Baker!!!!
She was getting that band in order - I’m very familiar with that kind of gesturing between the lead and the band… watch throughout - her gesturing is quite directive and guiding. There may have been some newer members that were nervous or unfamiliar, so she was helping them to get it right. She is the consummate professional and talent!!! Love you, Lady Anita!!!!!
@@bdean7190 She has to direct these band members to give and provide the top performance! Lady is such a Masterpiece of Platinum Status, A Real Rock ⭐!
Was blessed to see her LIVE on 5/25/2022 in Vegas @ her Venetian residency and YES she STILL GOT IT!!!!! She sounds EVERY bit like she did when I heard her live 30 + years ago! Truly authentic & on 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!!! She IS incredibly AMAZING!!!!!!! Much ❤️ & respect for Queen Anita Baker!
This woman has been my favorite artist all my life I know every single song she’s written I know every single song she’s performed I know every single song she’s performed in the studio I just want to be your girl chapter 8 was one of my favorite records growing up when I was a kid I have always had a passion to see her live and I’m so mad that I won’t get to see her and I pray to God that she comes back next year and I get a chance to see her Anita Baker has gotten me through so much in my life I am Anita Baker is the greatest song stress of all time they would never ever ever ever ever be another
She's not though and she knows it too, that's why she sounds so damn good because she takes it easy on herself. She'll be singing for the rest of her days probably 🤣
A true Wonder woman, her talent surpasses time and space 🌌, How our Lord has blessed us to enjoy the Richness and Quality of an amazing Angel. And she is so petite, but such POWERFUL command of her voice!🎉😂❤
Ageless, timeless, amazing... I would love to see her perform. I'm crying tears of joy. So happy for her. I love her so much. She is my big sister in my head.
Man, I remember being 12-years old in late 1986, and I used to love Anita Baker! There’s a bittersweet nostalgia when I listen to this…I can’t believe it’s been 36 years.
God bless Ms Anita Baker. She is rare songtress. Happy that she has residency in Vegas.She went through a tough time. But God has bless her on a come back..🌸🌺💐💖🙂
My father loved him some Anita Baker. It's so great to see her comeback and master her songwriting music after all her successful years of winning. She still standing giving us the best that she got. Love you Anita Baker!
I think there is an album, but it was shelved. Remember when she did Tyrese song, that was supposed to be on her new album, but only that song came out.
She looks and sounds beautiful!!!! I feel like I am at the concert while sitting in my room watching this on my desktop. CRYING AND SINGING all at the same time!!!!! #YOUROCKANITABAKER ♥♥♥♥♥ THAT BLACK IS ON POINT MAMA!!!!
I used to drive limos for celebrities in NY back in the late 90's, and having met Ms. Baker was an absolute pleasure. We had the most heartfelt and revealing conversation ever. She shared with me some early things in her career that were very twisted in the public eye. Great to see you again Anita!
My mom would go to work and I would go thru her records…she had the rapture album and I would put the needle down and just vibe out to it…to this day Anita baker is one of my favorite singers of all time…she has made some great music that will last forever…peace ✅
My girl still got IT!!! Yes indeed!! Sang Anita!! She gotta do some more shows here in Detroit. They sold OUT in less than 45 minutes!! Gone, notta, NOTHING, NATHAN!!!

This song easily brings me to tears.
This woman is just a national treasure a legend in her own league.
Few deserve the title of artist. Anita Baker is one of the few.
She's still a force of nature
SHE Still Got That Same Ole' Voice🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🤣🤣🤣 It's true.
I'm just sitting here thinking the exact same thing
Original key, no? Someone correct me if that's wrong.
😆🌹

The Songstress is back! We love You Anita Baker. She sounds so amazing. Welcome back Miss Baker. 😀😍😘😃🌼💗😃
How long will Anita Baker in Las Vegas?
I love Anita Baker hands down my No.#1 performer.
Another legend I grew up listening to. Lisa Fisher, Anita Baker, Stephanie Mills, Karyn White, and etc. we're a group of very talented female artists.
Karen White Still Has It! She And Adina Howard Were The Only Two Who I Saw Who Killed It Sitting Down!
Really? Wow!
Patti LaBelle...
And Oleta Adams
Only 1 legend in the list. The others very talented. We use legend loosely

I hope she does a new album. Her voice is still good ❤❤
I think there is an album, but it was shelved. Remember when she did Tyrese song, that was supposed to be on her new album, but only that song came out.
I think so. Got her masters ownership back and signed a deal with Rhino Records so remasters or...?
Anita said new hair who dis! Yes ma'am!!!
Wow! She sounds as good as ever.
So glad I grew up on this music. R and B and love songs.
Bless you for posting this for all of us 😫😫😫😫😫😫
