Anita Baker kicked out some of her fans after concertgoers ignored her request to stop filming her at her show on Friday.

The 65-year-old singer stopped performing one of her songs during her concert tour at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas to ask the people in the front row to stop recording.

In fan-recorded TikTok clips, she could be seen and heard interrupting herself while performing Feel the Need and asking the crowd to put down their phones to the tune of her song.

'Early in the morning. Late in the evening, baby,' she sang before adding a bit of improvisation to her lyrics. 

The R&B icon — who nixed Babyface from her Songstress tour earlier this year 'after enduring cyberbullying, verbal abuse and threats of violence' from his fans — then sang: 'Turn off the camera, baby. I don't know who you are. Move back!'
