Cheryl Lynn vs Anita Baker

Man, social media is really a gift and a curse. While it satisfies many peoples’ natural appetite for being nosy and getting the gossip – do we really want to see two veterans have a shade war on Twitter? Not particularly!

Last night, singer Cheryl Lynn – who’s best known for her 1978 hit “Got To Be Real” – was quite taken aback when she found out that Anita Baker had blocked her on Twitter, so she decided to let off a series of tweets on the matter.

“Really girl, I thought we were cool. I guess I should’ve known something was up when you ignored me. What did I ever do to you? Oh, I get it probably cuz I will sing you down on the stage is that it? I’ve been nothing but sweet to you, and I get blocked. I thought we were good. Its crazy how your truly colors came out. We’re too OLD to be petty, just call me and we can settle this like adults. Ppl look up to us. We’re OG’S in this biz.”

Anita has since replied…kind of. Not feeding into the back-and-forth, the legendary singer issued a response with one tweet:

“They love 2 call ur name/stand in ur light…& its not even ur light. Call HIS name…the light is HIS & there’s enough for ALL #Namaste”

This whole thing was too funny. Check out the full exchange in the gallery.
