Recently in a show, the singer Anita Baker said that she wants her audience to be present in her show. She had a show in Houston, Texas on 15th December. And during the performance, many people recorded the show on their phones. In the middle of the show, these kinds of gestures were disturbing her to perform. And that time, Anita asked them to stop the recording and be more present on the show. This video of her went viral on TikTok.
While singing the song ‘Feel the Need’, the artist sang ‘Early in the morning! Late in the evening, baby’ and later that even sang ‘Turn off the camera, baby, I don’t know who you are, move back!’. She also said ‘Get on back, I don’t know who that is’. She asked the fans to do so because it was disturbing her performance.
After that, Anita asked the security to remove some fans from the front row who were recording her during the performance. Whenever an artist performs, they try to look at their audience, build a connection, and do the performance. But if the artist is only looking at phone cameras, then it becomes quite difficult for them to perform. For that reason, she asked people to stop recording and enjoy the live performance by putting all their concentration.
Previously in June, Anita made a post on social media platforms and said ‘After Silently, Enduring Cyber Bulling/Verbal Abuse & Threats of Violence from the Fan Base, of Our Special Guest/Support Act. In the Interest of Personal Safety. I will continue, The Songstress Tour, alone. Appropriate refunds will be made. Blessings’. She shared this message regarding the tour on social media platform but didn’t mention the name of her former opener, which was quite shocking for all.
Babyface used to do the opening for her show and when Anita removed his name, it ‘saddened’ him immensely. And on that topic, he later said ‘It’s unfortunate and disheartening to see how things have played out via social media…While I was looking forward to the rest of the dates, I have nothing but love and respect for Anita and I wish her the best for the remainder of her tour’.
