[JeremySpears]

The album title was confirmed in her interview with Billboard.

The Element Of Freedom was her last body of work that was overall very strong.

After that her albums were kind of a mixed bag. I am hoping for a grand comeback.

[JeremySpears]

If the rest of the album sounds like "Time Machine" my wig is going to explode.

If the rest of the album sounds like "Time Machine" my wig is going to explode.

I’d totally welcome that direction.

She’s done quite a few piano ballads so far.

[Goldmoney]

That ratchet ass title.

[stevyy]

she really stood the test of time. I adore her.

[BeeBoy]

The title is a mess, but I look forward to the album

[croatiaxtina]

I used to love The Diary Of Alicia Keys, As I Am was great and The Element Of Freedom.
After that, I can't even remember anything, just Girl On Fire song and amazing In Common.
The rest was boring AF

[Goldmoney]

Fallin’ is still the second best R&B song of all time and she was pretty consistent for awhile, but I haven’t been invested in Screechlicia since 2010.

[Tansike]

"Time Machine" is a fantastic single. Her best in years, so I'm definitely hoping for a similar direction for the whole album.

[luckyONE]

Judging from the album title, this will be another 'HERE' kind of mess record.

But she delivered one of the best tunes (on the European deluxe edition): 'Hallelujah'.
So there is hope.

[ArmyOfMe]

That title... my god

[theMathematician]

I would like her to release something in the urban contemporary direction, like Beyoncé's 'Beyoncé' or Janelle Monae's 'Electric Lady'. I think she's capable of pulling that off, she only needs to accept to take a risk.

[Tansike]

Have you heard her current single? It kinda is something new for her

[theMathematician]

@Tansike: Thanks for your hint! I gave the song a try and it's definitely something I'd have yet to hear from her. It sounds very current, like something HER or SZA would release. Not necessarily the type of music I listen to, but maybe she could extend her target audience with this...

[Marchum]

Excited!!

[shinydiscopaul]

Songs, and Diary are absolutely perfect. Girl On Fire is a good album, and HERE was alright too. As I Am and Freedom were only okay - quite a bit of dreary filler on both.

I hope she can return to the really high standard of her first two albums.

[bm08]

I have very low expectations tbh. But I’m looking forward to hearing it

[spiritboy]

I love both Show Me Love and Time Machine and i hope the album will have more TM like songs.

[oasisbobo]

Really looking forward to this!

[ThaInfo1]

The Element Of Freedom was her last body of work that was overall very strong.

After that her albums were kind of a mixed bag. I am hoping for a grand comeback.

Agreed and agreed!

I've actually like what she's put out so far so we shall see.

[JeremySpears]

A new song called "Underdog" comes out tomorrow.

[Goldmoney]

More motivational BS.

[Preyoncé]

More motivational BS.

[spiritboy]

Title gives me MDNA vibes

[JeremySpears]

[JeremySpears]

"Underdog" is the latest single off ALICIA, following "Time Machine" and "Show Me Love" featuring Miguel. Keys has yet to announce the project's official release date, but it is slated to drop this spring. Of the track's relationship to the album, she told us, "I’m at a place in my life where I’m loving and accepting all the different facets of who I am. In the past I’ve only known certain sides of myself but now I realize that I’m ready to be more in touch with all the sides within. With my album ALICIA, I’m unfiltered. I’m sharing all of who I am and how I feel. I never could’ve titled an album Alicia before. I’m closer to myself then I’ve ever been."

[Leo]

Show Me Love was smooth and good, Time Machine was another step in the right direction. Underdog is ok but a step backwards.

Anyway, I am feeling this project more than the previous and that's great! TBH Alicia is always a good place to go.

[oasisbobo]

Love this

[Loose]

Underdog is great! I like it a lot better than Time Machine.
