Alicia Keys Aims For Full And Cohesive New Album
. According to Women's Wear Daily, the "Girl on Fire" is ready to open up about herself on this go round, choosing to focus on lyrical content as opposed to melody. "This time it's more about what we're going through as human beings," she said to WWD. "We all experience similar things. I find that the world puts us in these boxes where we're only allowed to be one way - like, 'to succeed as a career woman, you need to do it this way,' or 'to be a gay man, you have to be this way.'" One particular song Keys is excited about is "Killing Your Mother." She says not to take the title literally, since the song is about emotions and the album will be about exploring strong points of view. Keys wants this album to be full and cohesive and not just a singles churner, which she says the music industry has been reduced to since the rise of iTunes. "Obviously record companies need to go where the business is, so we started making singles," she said. "Which is cool, but there's something so amazing about an entire body of work, a collective view, that sense that all of this music came from one artist." more on this story Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
