Anita Baker "Rapture" Live

[@michaelparker525]

This has to be one of her best renditions of this songs! ❤️ 2:00 - 2:10 just gives me chills each time I hear it.

[@Atund]

She walks out on stage, BOWS GRACIOUSLY to her audience, thanks the audience, and proceeds to perform the hell out of her song while keeping the audience captivated on her every action. God, they just don't make them like that anymore. A true diva. I love the ad lib at the end of the song, "We've got joy now, all the pain is gone." You can just tell she's in a happier place in her life now after the saddening death of both her adoptive parents a few years earlier and her divorce. Love Anita

[@clearanceonlygagurlbella]

[@chancebrown106]

This whole video is magical. The ease she conveys singing, the way she floats across the stage- completely effortless! I’d love to see her live before she retires.

[@deke123]

anita looks so healthy and her voice is forever a piece of treasure!

[@joshuabellamy2488]

When a gift was a gift and auto-tuned microphones didn't exist. You can't fake what's real. This is beautiful, her voice is amazing! even when she told them not to sit down she sounded good saying it lol.

Joshua Bellamy that's my favorite part
