RCA Music has partnered with Involver, the leading social media technology firm, to allow Keys' 1.2 million Facebook fans to stream the tracks from her new album directly from her Facebook Page. Visitors can listen to tracks for free and place pre-orders in advance of the December 15th release of "The Element of Freedom."

"Alicia's incredible reach and passionate fan base inspired us to take an innovative approach and become the first music label to launch her album exclusively on the world's largest social media platform," said Tom Corson, EVP/General Manager, RCA Music Group. "After learning about Involver's powerful social media marketing capabilities and successes with brands such as US Weekly and Puma we knew we'd found the right partner to make this creative online launch a reality."

The Facebook debut of "The Element of Freedom" marks the fifth album release from the soulful 12-time Grammy Award winner. The album was executive produced by Alicia Keys, Jeff Robinson, Peter Edge and Kerry "Krucial" Brothers and includes the singles "Doesn't Mean Anything," "Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart," "Empire State of Mind (Part II) Broken Down," as well as a beat-driven duet with Beyonc� called "Put It In A Love Song."
