Alicia Keys recently paid a visit to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon where she talked all about her two children that her and husband Swizz Beatz share. The "Fallin'" singer revealed that their oldest son Egypt produced one of Kendrick Lamar's tracks off his Untitled Unmastered project. The little mastermind was only five-years-old when he helmed "untitled 07 l 2014 - 2016" for the TDE artist. 

Music runs in her offspring's jeans as their youngest child, Genesis, who is only three-years-old has already shown off his beatboxing skills with random words such as "avocado."

"I was thinking we could be the new Jackson 5, just split everybody up," she says in the video below. "Producers, bass players, guitarists, piano players." 

Alicia explains how Harvard wants to do a case study on her and Swizz's life. She admits she doesn't "understand it 1,000 percent," but she's very much with it.

As for upcoming music from the R&B legend, Alicia says it's being worked on and oddly enough she's been inspired by the bathroom. "I know it sounds crazy but I was giving Genesis a bath and [the water] was running," she says. "It gave me this inspiration and I heard it coming out of the water, coming out of the bathroom." 

Watch her full interview below.
