Nine-time Grammy Award winner Alicia Keys returns with her long-awaited third studio album, As I Am. Within 10 hours of being serviced to radio, Alicia first single, "No One," became one of the fastest moving and highest charting single on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. This also marks the highest first single debut for a female artist in 2007 on the R&B Monitor's Urban Mainstream chart!
One of the few artists who can capture an old-school vibe and make if feel refreshingly new, Alicia tackles this feat once again with an album she describes as "Janis Joplin meets Aretha Franklin." Punctuated with rich powerful vocals, Alicia's vocal muses can be felt on songs ranging from the anthemic "Superwoman" and power-charged "Go Ahead" to the misty-eyed ballad "Like You Never See Me Again" and the soulful "Sure Looks Good To Me."
Since the 2001 debut of Songs In A Minor, the New York native has built an unparalleled repertoire of hits and accomplishments with over 20 million albums sold worldwide! Songs In A Minor, which spawned her signature hit "Fallin," sold more than 10 million copies worldwide and garnered five Grammy Awards including Best New Artist and Best R&B Album. Alicia's follow-up disc, 2004's The Diary of Alicia Keys, which is currently 7 times platinum, captured four Grammy Awards and featured the hits "If I Ain't Got You," "You Don't Know My Name," and "Karma." With the 2005 release of Unplugged, which has sold 2 million copies, Keys became the first female R&B artist to have three consecutive #1 debuts on the Billboard 200 album chart in as many releases.
