Why Detroit’s Anita Baker dropped Babyface as supporting act on tour

A Detroit legend has dropped her supporting act for her tour after a social media feud.

It’s gotten so serious that Anita Baker announced she’s dropping R&B star Babyface from the tour.

Baker and Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds has made timeless songs during their careers.

Now it’s the end of the road of The Songstress Tour with Babyface as the special guest. The tour heads to Detroit on July 2.

“You got people who already paid tickets to see Babyface,” said fan Nikki Evans. “So in the end, work it out and put on a concert out of this world.”

It all began when Babyface expressed disappointment to his fans on social media for not being able to perform at the tour’s New Jersey stop last month.

“Babyface is a legend, so I am sure he was like, I can’t be replaced, so Anita was just like, let me show you,” said Evans.
