In Spring 2022, Alicia Keys will release her graphic novel, Girl on Fire, and when she wasn't working on its development, she was mapping out her skincare brand, Keys Soulcare. The Grammy winner has managed to balance those two projects with her live shows and home life, but she also found the time to squeeze in her eighth studio album, a double-disc feature titled Keys.
The release follows her 2020 album Alicia and in a recent interview with Marie Claire, the singer spoke about her current approach to music, her life, and her overall career. “I’m reaching a place where I’m much more confidently clear about the power I possess,” said Keys. “I’ve always been strong and determined. I haven’t not known my power, but now I’m clearly aware of all of it, as opposed to just pieces of it.”
Features on the project include Lil Wayne, Pusha T, Swae Lee, Khalid, Lucky Daye, and Brandi Carlile. Stream Keys and let us know what you think.
