Alicia Keys Sends DMs To Fans, Reveals Tracklist Of New Album 'HERE'
Alicia Keys' sixth studio album HERE is, as promised, now out.
The album, Keys' has explained as an homage to her hometown of New York City, and it totally worth the listen. A few days back Keys released a beautifully charged short film, shot in black and white, named after the track "The Gospel" via TIDAL. The visuals touched on issues such as police brutality and life growing up in New York City. Also in the lead up to the release of HERE, Alicia Keys' dropped the singles “Holy War” and “Blended Family” featuring A$AP Rocky.
"In Common" and "Hallelujah" are featured on the deluxe edition of the album. Keys also performed in New York City's Times Square and brought out Jay Z, John Mayer and Nas to entertain the masses. Speaking of Nas, the same sample used for "One Love," The Heath Brothers' "Smilin' Billy Suite Pt. II" is used on the track, "She Don’t Really Care_1 Luv." The familiar melody becomes especially apparent towards the end of the track. The song even features a clip at the end with what sounds like Nas speaking. To round things out, last week Keys' slid through the DMs of fans on twitter, revealing the track list for the album.
HERE is executively produced by Keys' husband Swizz Beatz. Her last album was 2012’s Girl on Fire. Stream Alicia Keys' sixth studio album HERE via Apple Music below.
