Gone are the days of Alicia Keys‘ earth-mother angle, if the scorching cover of her new album, ‘Girl On Fire’, is anything to go by.
Unveiled moments ago, the shot brings with it a sassier image of Mrs Swizz Beatz. Here’s hoping the material is equally as hot when the album arrives on November 27th. It needs to be with a title and smouldering cover like that.
Look out for Alicia at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards on September 6th, where she’ll be taking to the stage to debut her new single.

I am so freaking excited about this album and getting back to some real R&B. The cover is fierce. 11/27 is now marked on my calendar. You are ALWAYS guaranteed at least 6 or 7 solid hits from and AK album.

I can´t wait. I loved “New day”. Exactly what I want from Alicia at this point. She needed to change some things and I think she´s doing it. Go Alicia, Mariah and Gaga. Interesting next few months. Not like the cover much though, but I don´t care about that

I hope Alicia hasn’t shot herself in the foot with this. Looking “fierce” on an album cover is good, but then the rest has to follow otherwise it won’t work. If alicia is going to have more songs like new day she’ll have to learn to dance so she can portray this new image on videos.

Beyond the smoke and mirrors
August 23, 2012 at 5:26 pm
This is the problem with music as late.
The new generation…specifically speaking “gays” focus way too much on image,rather than the actual product.
Alicia keys was fine the way she was.
Now I’m all for the evolution of the artist.
I however have come to question the authenticity of this whole image change.
She is not going to gain any new audience she already has one. I wonder has she even considered the thought that she might be alienating them just for promo buzz?
Give me a ganky white soultress with voice or a 250 lbs fat black woman who can wail into the heavens hit your soul and your ancestor’s over an artist driven by the way someone perceives them by looks.
Sad days we live in when most of hot 100 can’t sing a note anymore.
Nonetheless I’ll be watching Alicia always has at least one gem every album.

Why do some people care about covers? It’s what’s inside that counts. We’ll see. ‘New Day’ is ok in my opinion. Haven’t really been into her last couple of albums like I was with the older ones.
