Alicia Keys is very happy because of motherhood

admin — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 22:20:35 +0000

It seems that the singer who just recently gave birth to her first child, a boy by the name of Egypt Daoud Dean, is thrilled about becoming a mother… even more thrilled than her husband Swizz Beats. This is what Alicia Keys tweeted on the matter: “There is no word to properly describe LOVE, to describe BLISS, to express a FEELING like this!!!” She seems terribly excited… it will all pass soon enough and then Alicia Keys can enjoy the true bliss of motherhood: frustration, lack of sleep, lack of peace and so forth. Now that’s something to look forward too!

50 Cent’s On Diva Alica

50 Cent had something to say about Alicia Keys’ comments in Blender Magazine about Gangsta rap being “a ploy to convince black people to kill each other.” Alicia released a statement saying her comments were “misrepresented” and that she isn’t a “conspiracy theorist” or “a racist.”
50 told The Showbuzz:
“I don’t like Alicia Keys no more though … the same reason why I said that I don’t like Oprah Winfrey. I’m prejudice(d). I don’t like people who don’t like me. If you don’t like the content that I write because of my experiences; I am being who I am when I am writing it. I fall into that ‘label’ as far as you considering artists creating ‘Gangsta music,’ we fall into that.
If she don’t like that, (then) I don’t like that classical music shit she be doing. At some point she’s playing some shit that don’t relate to me. We listen to it and try to figure out why people actually enjoy it. I am trying to enjoy it. That statement changes my perception of Alicia Keys totally. But the magazine is standing behind it, which means they probably have a tape of her in conversation saying it. It’s just not really a bright comment anyway.”
Alicia issued a statement saying her comments were “misrepresented” and that she isn’t a “conspiracy theorist” or “a racist.”
I understood Alicia’s comment as praising the genre of gangster rap (she’s a big Notorious BIG fan), but against the government allegedly creating the term and using it to stir up discord in the black community.

I’m still waiting for him to stop performing since Kanye kicked his a** on that last album…’publicity stunt’ !

Alicia Is Taken Over

Diva — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 03:52:31 +0000

Alicia Keys has taken over The Billboard 200 this week with her brand new album “As I Am”. It has debuted at No. 1 after selling 742,000 copies in the United States so far. Billboard has also revealed that this is the best sales in one week for a solo female artist since Norah Jones’ “Feels Like Home” who sold 1 million copies in 2004. I haven’t listened to any of Alicia’s new songs, and it was because I was put off by the cover and the first single No One… I am going to definitely check out this album now!
