Baker tweeted a string of tweets and accused Babyface’s fans of threatening her. She also asked the singer to call off his fans. She tweeted, “Kenny’s Crazies are online Bullies.
@Babyface Please call off, your fans. I have been Only Kind and Supportive, of You, as the Special Guest/Support, on My Tour ABXO🎼”
Baker also claimed that Babyface has been violating his contract as the opening act by exceeding his allotted time on stage, thus encroaching upon her scheduled headlining performance.
Many fans slammed Anita for not acknowledging Babyface as her equal — to which she informed him the “Whip Appeal” singer is certainly NOT … at least as where The Songstress Tour is concerned.

One user tweeted, “Anita jailhouse baker pleaseeee. Your ego dims your light & diminishes your message every time. Put some respect on peoples name. That man holds more Grammys than you. I’ve heard you are a nasty piece of work and no one wants to work w/ you. Do better “songstress” twitter.com/iamanitabaker/…”
Babyface emphasized that his remark about not being present on that specific night was not meant to be disrespectful to Baker. Instead, he merely wanted to explain his absence and explain why he wouldn’t be playing that night.
Though, several fans severely criticized her tweets many extended support to the singer. One user tweeted, “Girl, Haters Gonna Hate! Don’t sweat it! To quote a famous rap song, “… and if they hate, then let ’em hate and watch the money pile up” ! Just do your thing, queen. We’ve got your back.”
“Those so-called fans just want unnecessary nonsensical beef between you and Babyface. Don’t let them steal your joy, Ms. Baker. Hopefully Babyface realize what’s happening and will address it. Love and admire you both. 🙏🏾♥️”, another user wrote.
