Even though it's clear that this photoshopped, she looks GOREGOUS!

Official single hasn't dropped, but it is a cover of Tyrese's song, "Lately." Anita and Tyrese recently did a duet performance of the song live....

Doesn't sound too bad, but this is what we've been waiting for???

Say it isn't so: Anita is covering Tyrese? Underwhelming announcement.

''Lately," will be released on or about August 7.

wow - Anita Baker! Have not heard anything from her in a while.

Just thinking about her....Sweet Love is now somehow already stuck in my head....

Not excited about it was hoping for something better.

That pic is WAAAAYYYYY photoshopped. This is what she really looks like today:

Her new album, Only Forever, will feature 10 tracks, according to EMI.

I don't care about her appearance, I just want her to deliver something worth the long wait.

Oh I don't care about her appearance either, shit happens...but I just wanted to point out that the original picture that started the thread is misleading. That's all, no biggie. All home girl needs is a personal trainer and a nutritionist and I'm sure she'll shed the pounds in no time.

Quit it. She does not look like that now. I go to college with her son and he posts new pictures of her looking pretty much like she always has lol.

It is recent. The site where I found it posts pics of celebs that were taken within the past 7 days.

I'll take that versus having a rapper appear on her album

It doesn't really matter how she looks, but how she sounds. She's a singer, not a model. At least, that's the way it should be looked at in regards to singers, I'd say.

There might be a rapper on her album. Anita held a recording session in 2010 with Snoop.

oh gawd no

that's still gonna happen?

Let's hope EMI shelves their collaborative effort and it never ever leaks.

yeah,Anita spoke about a collaboration with Snoop Dogg,on a remake of Curtis Mayfield's "Give Me Your Love".This was a few years ago,though.Maybe she came to her senses and cancelled it

Anita ought to fall down on her knees and thank God for Photoshop!

Anita's long-awaited album, Only Forever, will finally be released on Oct 23.

Praying that the track with Snoop got jettisoned.

Here it is. Thoughts? It's nice. Predictable. I must say I like it more than the first single from her last album.

it's not bad...sounds like what you would expect from Anita,so I guess that's good? Her hardcore fans should like it.
