Baker confirmed the previously rumored tour earlier this month and took to Twitter with a quick guessing game to unveil who would join her on the road. The first clue read, “‘Rapture’ released 1986. *Legendary Male, after 1986…” To which one confused fan replied, “This is tough Hmm…Just one more clue please. Is he part of a group?”

The Detroit legend responded, “Originally… YES.”

Before the Girls Night Out crooner‘s breakout as a solo act, he was part of The Deele, alongside L.A. Reid, Carlos “Satin” Greene, Darnell “Dee” Bristol, Stanley “Stick” Burke, and Kevin “Kayo” Roberson. Face co-wrote one of the biggest hits, “Two Occasions.”
