I would love this! B2B is one of my favourite albums

I see her flopping.

Unless she comes with a mainstream lead single.

Beyonce did good with 4 in the USA. But thats it. So i don't consider Alicia Keys being more successful than Beyonce. Could be a tie between these two, or just weaker sales for Ms. Keys.

Worldwide? I don't know. She was really strong in the UK last era. She could do well there with some little promo.

But we had Unplugged in between those two eras which means we at least had some activity from her...

At this point, if she sells as much as 4 without a hit single, i would call the album success. I really hope that the success and popularity she gained in UK with TEOF will continue this era.

The Element of Freedom did great, this will do well!

I want more songs like Dreaming, Streets of New York & Typewriter

Relaxing music, hip-hop influences & killer lyrics... yes please

by **Plym** » Sun Jun 17, 2012 5:09 pm

^ YAS! I would love that, some hip hop influences. I can see a bit of 70's soul maybe in the next album.

You haven't even heard anything, what a ridiculous thing to say.

by **HBIC** » Sun Jun 17, 2012 5:15 pm

I want some sensual songs on the next album too, her last two didn't have any..

Feeling U, Feeling Me is only an interlude but it's one of my fave Alicia songs. It's hot!

by **Plym** » Sun Jun 17, 2012 5:16 pm

Hold up, what is Dreaming?

by **flowers** » Sun Jun 17, 2012 5:18 pm

WHAT!! It was the b-side to Doesn't Mean Anything & it's one of Alicia's best songs

Enjoy!

lol 'See her flopping' based on what?

Alicia is known for having a solid fanbase and consistent album sales. Even without a major hit on BB100 last album she still sold 1.5 Mill in the US

So far we know she has definitely worked with Emeli Sande & Miguel (not sure if it was for her or his album) and possibly Maxwell, Bon Iver and Adele

Alicia's sound engineer confirmed that she didn't work with Mariah they were just in the same studio

If she did work with Bon Iver, I hope he just helped with the production, because her voice with his atmosphere would be incredible..

Yeah, it'd be the only collaboration I'd be interested in hearing. Her sound hasn't changed much since Songs In A Minor, and her last 3 albums have all been very similar, so I'm hoping for something fresh with this album.

I mean I get what you're saying but I wouldn't say that her sound hasn't changed much...

She's been moving away from hip hop soul with each album. That's part of the reason why Element of Freedom was so popular in the UK: it was lighter and it sounded more like an easy-listening adult contemporary album...
