next spring and I would love for that to happen”. When the project is released, Baker says it will include several live performances including two shows at New York’s Radio City Music Hall, recorded in February. “What you’ll probably end up seeing is something that’s packaged live from Radio City, with elements of the Caymans and Detroit added into that,” she told Billboard last week. But the lady of soul says this project will essentially remain “an Anita Baker record,” insisting that there will be no departure from her signature sound. However, the project will have some surprising elements on it, one of which could be a collaboration with Snoop Dogg. According to Baker, Snoop Dogg is working on an adaptation of Curtis Mayfield’s “Give Me Your Love (Love Song)”. “It’s lovely — who knew that Snoop is madly in love with his wife, you know ? We’ve got a chance to see that in the way his music has grown, so when he comes in to do dialogue over that love theme, it becomes very grown up and contemporary at the same time.”
