Social Media Erupts Over Anita Baker N’ Dem Preventing Babyface’s Performance – Coco Jones Killed Nat’l Anthem & More | PicsVideos

Babyface and Anita Baker

*Ayo Webbies, as we wind down this week, one would think things would be simmering down on Cardi B‘s internet, but nah, check out what the streets are saying for Social Heat. Anita Baker is catching it on social media after Babyface posted on his IG grid that he was not permitted to do his set during the New Jersey stop of their tour. Fans went all angry bird over having to wait two hours for Aunty A to perform, and many recalled she used these same tactics when she toured with Luther Vandross and Maxwell, according to Vibe. Anita gave us the soundtrack to our lives, so we’ve been rocking with her for a long time, but stories keep surfacing on how she treats her peers and fans, which hurts us to our hearts. Icons shouldn’t treat other musical heroes in such a manner, as Stephanie Mills said.

We love to see it! Nate Parker, David Oyelowo, Chiké Okonkwo, and tech entrepreneur and film financier Zak Tanjeloff have joined forces to create and launch a streaming service to promote global Black cultural content called Mansa, a clever homage to Mansa Musa. The platform will include on-demand titles, digital linear channels, short-form videos, and user-generated content.

Revolutionary American mezzo-soprano Grace Bumbry passed away at the age of 86. In 1961, she rose to prominence as the first Black singer to sing at the renowned Bayreuth festival. Attendees gave her a 30-minute ovation for her performance of Wagner’s Tannhäuser. She founded the Grace Bumbry Black Musical Heritage Ensemble to ensure the next generation of great singers. “Being given a talent is a great responsibility,” she once said to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. “It’s not just about making beautiful noises, it is also a duty.”

Coco Jones‘ mic was on as she came with the vocals and snapped while singing the National Anthem for the LA Lakers versus the Golden State Warriors game last night. Based on her performance, fans know Coco brings the solution to 4+4 to every event. (Yep, we sure did Deebo that from Essence, thank you!) ⁠
