Alicia Keys debuted "Brand New Me" at iTunes Festival on Sep 28, a ''personal record'' that she co-wrote with Scottish singer Emeli Sandé.

she and Paula Patton could also easily pass as siblings.

If u listen 2 this objectively.............she sounds like an very unaccomplished performer.

He's just being himself. GS is dismissive of every artist you can think of except Mint Condition and a few struggling acts.

Ouch.

In all seriousness i like her but i'm just not impressed with much she's done

since Diary. Teenage Love Affair and I'm Ready are the only tunes post Diary

that are easy on the ears. No hate for those who like her new song but to me

this is worst than No One and No One was horrible.

OMG, I hated NO ONE! This song is horrible...

Nobody is bashing Alicia.......... the song just isnt good.

One thing I will give her respect for is the fact that she didnt have to strip or show skin unlike her peers to be successful.

AK only has 2 songs that I like. She's usually loud and wrong......caterwauling.

Her background singers smoke her anyway

Not seen it yet. Like I said earlier I don't like all her stuff, but I do like As I Am CD and some of her other singles. Her last effort was shit. I do own all her stuff and can't say I like them as a whole, but there are some good songs. I have seen her live twice and thought she was good and not bad to look at either. I've seen her husband live and he's good. I wonder why he's not more famous?
