Alicia is the new queen of RnB I was wrong. I thought piano belongs to classical music, not to modern R'n'B. This CD is something new and original and Alicia is a true talent. The best songs are the 4 singles, but the others are also worth listening, my favorite non-single tracks are Jane Doe, Butterflyz and Rock Wit U. I'm glad I bought the special edition 'cause this remix of "A Woman's Worth" is so COOL. (A hint: don't turn off your CD player after listening it. . . wait a few minutes. :)
The Cd also contains a weblink to a page where you can find videos and some Alicia stuff.
When's the next CD???
Fast beats like "Jane Doe" and "Girlfriend" coupled with slow tracks like "Fallin'" and "Woman's Worth" makes for a CD great to listen to in any mood. A great CD! The incredible voice of A Keys shines through in every track and her talent as a piano player is quite evident. My favourite tracks include "Mr. Man" and "Why Do I Feel So Sad".
Soulful Sister Beyond Her Years
In this industry where everyone seems to just be a product of their record company with no presence or minds of their own, Alicia Keys is a very refreshing change. First, let me commend Alicia Keys for having the ability to write her own material and the talent to sing and play the piano better than most others in the music industry. Her amazing soul comes through every track on her album and anyone can tell that this woman is wise beyond her years. Even now, after her cd has been out for awhile, I love to sit back after a day of work and listen to it because it is very soothing. Those who seem to think her cd is "over-hyped" do not understand the deeper soul behind singers such as Alicia Keys, India Arie, Floetry, and Jill Scott. Being a singer and piano player myself, Alicia Keys is truly an inspiration to me. I look forward to the future of Miss Keys, one of the best things out there.
WOW!
i first heard her over in the states when i was in holiday and foned home to c if her album was out in scotland. . i got told no so i knew wot i was shoppin 4 next day. . . i have had her album for over 2 years now. . and still enjoy sittin listenin to it. I went to c her in concert. AMAZING!! i dont normally listen to rnb, but this i had 2. her songs have so much feelin put into them and as a fellow piano player i no how much time and effort has gone into writtin this song. she has acheived soo much for a 22 year old, and hope i am not the only one that thinks so. i think alicia keys will be sum1 we will be hearin for awhile.
A-licia's Worth
With diminutive artists, it's impossible for this sensational genre to leap to its pinnacle, a spot R&B held several years ago. Undeniably, R&B music is not what it once was. And while R&B's current roster certainly is minuscule, you can expect to have its remaining talent excel, and give R&B an outstanding repute.
What comes to mind when thinking of R&B? Usher, Beyonce' perhaps, or maybe the newer talent; Rihanna, Chris Brown? One name is never forgotten; however, Alicia Keys. What exactly can you expect from this smashing-artists' debut album? An album so esteemed, many refer as it the "revival" of R&B. Today, we have established the highly controversial "Queen of Pop", the "King of Pop", and after a few more albumbs, we can certainly have the crown fixed for our "Queen of R&B"; Alicia Keys.
