Hip-hop

In 2001, the name Alicia Keys became synonymous with excellence. And she delivers an album of master class with her third original release, As I Am. The album opens with Alicia’s trademark solo instrumental accompanied by Krucial Keys’ synth drums. But this is where the similarities between As I Am and her previous albums end. Alicia returns with an alternative spin on her original sound, replacing mellow R&B grooves with guitar-fused melodies. Each song builds on Alicia’s ever-building confidence in her art.
