ALICIA KEYS  NEXT> Nine-time Grammy Award winner Alicia Keys returns with her long-awaited third studio album, As I Am, set for a worldwide release on November 13 on J Records. Within 10 hours of being serviced to radio, Alicia first single, No One, became one of the fastest moving and highest charting single on Billboards Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. This also marks the highest first single debut for a female artist in 2007 on the R&B Monitors Urban Mainstream chart! No One was written and produced by Keys, longtime collaborator Kerry Krucial Brothers and Dirty Harry. The Justin Francis/The Saline Project-directed video for No One was recently shot in LA and will premiere on national video outlets on September 17. Her first studio album since the critically-acclaimed 2003s The Diary of Alicia Keys, Alicia showcases her songwriting and producing talents on all 13 songs on As I Am, but also joins forces on several tracks with her longtime collaborator Kerry Krucial Brothers, award-winning songwriters Linda Perry, John Mayer, Harold Lilly, Sean Garrett and producers Mark Batson, Dirty Harry, Swizz Beatz and Jack Splash. One of the few artists who can capture an old-school vibe and make if feel refreshingly new, Alicia tackles this feat once again with an album she describes as Janis Joplin meets Aretha Franklin. Punctuated with rich powerful vocals, Alicias vocal muses can be felt on songs ranging from the anthemic Superwoman and power-charged Go Ahead to the misty-eyed ballad Like You Never See Me Again and the soulful Sure Looks Good To Me. Tonight on CBSs Fashion Rocks, Alicia mesmerizes the audience with a soul-stirring performance of The Thing About Love from As I Am and joins the incredible Carlos Santana in an amazing duet of Black Magic Woman. Keys will also rock the MTV Video Music Awards on September 9 with a national televised debut performance of her new hit single No One. Since the 2001 debut of Songs In A Minor, the New York native has built an unparalleled repertoire of hits and accomplishments with over 20 million albums sold worldwide! Songs In A Minor, which spawned her signature hit Fallin, sold more than 10 million copies worldwide and garnered five Grammy Awards including Best New Artist and Best R&B Album. Alicias follow-up disc, 2004s The Diary of Alicia Keys, which is currently 7 times platinum, captured four Grammy Awards and featured the hits If I Ain’t Got You, You Don’t Know My Name, and Karma. With the 2005 release of Unplugged, which has sold 2 million copies, Keys became the first female R&B artist to have three consecutive #1 debuts on the Billboard 200 album chart in as many releases. |
