Anita Baker's Rapture: 40 Years of Auntie Music (Remix)

FREE & PAID MEMBERS: DJ Sir Daniel and Jay Ray revisit Anita Baker's 1986 classic Rapture on its 40th anniversary, tracing the album from its troubled genesis—including Baker’s Chapter 8 exit, a lawsuit with Beverly Glen Records, and a pivotal Elektra deal—to its enduring presence on Black radio and the visual era that defined Baker. The remix spotlights the album’s retro-nuevo sound, its track-by-track journey, Quiet Storm radio’s role in turning cuts like Been So Long into staples without a formal single, and ends with a tribute to Detroit on Same Ole Love (365 Days of the Year). It features two sample tracks from Rapture: Been So Long and Same Ole Love (365 Days of the Year).
