She actually started off singing covers of Anita Baker. Her first single was supposed to be an Anita Baker song but she turned it down and Babyface gave it to his new artist, Toni Braxton.

As a Contralto singer, I can say that Anita Baker’s arrival on the scene was affirming (Sweeet Love ❤) and prepared people for Toni and others who vibe on the lower register. 😍 So I interpreted this differently than most.

[@Patty-xi6gz]

She was in a group called Chapter 8 before she went on her own

[@CeliniacForLife]

Anita and Toni are both mezzo-sopranos with extensive range, despite false claims that they are contraltos.

[@WuWei7]

​@@CeliniacForLifeThey are absolutely contraltos with 3-4 octave range. They can push themselves as Altos but both of their comfort levels are firmly in the lower registers which gives them their distinctive rich, husky almost masculine voices (hallmarks of contraltos).

Toni Braxton and Anita Backer love them both.

[@WuWei7]

I never thought their voices sounded alike. They both have very distinctive voices where you can recognize them immediately even when you don't know the song. They don't even really sing the same types of music. Anita Baker is traditional R&B and makes a lot more ballads but Toni sings more contemporary R&B with a lot of mid-tempo songs. Also, Anita writes a lot of her own music so it hits a lot different when you're singing your own words. I lived in Vegas and I saw Toni's floor show a few times and I have seen Anita at the Essence Fest and Tom Joyner cruise. They even perform differently, they are apples and oranges, there's no need to pit them against each other.

[@deacon8754]

Yeah they only the same for people who don’t really listen.

[@jojodancer0072]

Plus Anita Baker’s ears are also trained for jazz sing & she does a magnificent job. I know bc I was at one of her concert tours in NYC @the Radio City Music Hall when she dropped her second Album (Caught up in the Rapture) in the mid 80’s. On the other hand, I also saw Toni Braxton’s concert live in NYC @the Beacon Theatre & I don’t remember Toni Braxton singing any type of jazz.
