R&B songstress Alicia Keys was recently interviewed by BET where the diva discussed several aspects of her upcoming album ‘The Element of Freedom’. In particular, she conversed about her highly anticipated collaboration with fellow entertainer Beyonce. Keys’ new album hits stores on December 15th.
This is shaping up to be one of the biggest unions of the decade! It is definitely the closest thing to the iconic Whitney Houston/Mariah Carey ‘When You Believe’ record that floored critics in 1998. However, I am trying to keep my excitement in check because as we’ve witnessed by many of today’s collaborations, such as Beyonce and Lady GaGa’s ‘Video Phone’ remix, artists don’t always deliver as promised.

Over exaggerate much? lol Alicia nor Beyonce are anywhere NEAR Mariah or Whitney in their primes.
Alicia needs to pull out all the stops b/c her album has damn near zero buzz. Seems like she’s relying on Beyonce to drum up some interest. Good luck with that.
This is gonna be EPIC….
alicia and beyonce are no where near mariah and whitney…that’s a little extreme bud.
it’s going to be boring watch.
oh wow wow wow i CANNOT WAIT WAIT WAIT im stan for bee but luv a.keys aswell!!
Ya’ll don’t understand Alicia Keys!!! This is not going to be like Video phone where Beyonce upstaged GAGA!! This going to be and real R&B track, Put it in a Love song sound Throw back!!!
Kill’em AK47!!!!
Alicia doesn’t need Beyonce to sell her album, generate buzz , or rely on her for anything music wise. Her opening sales have been solid all by herself and she is multi-platinum all by herself as well. I won’t speculate on how it will sound, I just hope its a true R&B track, that is actually both their strengths.
Honestly, If it weren’t for ESOM she’d have no Billboard presence at all. I’m a fan of Alicia, but come on, she is not currently getting the attention she normally does. I don’t know if it’s J records or her single choices, but her buzz is usually deafening this close to release time.
I just think it’s interesting a few weeks before her album which has delivered 2 under performing singles she’s talking about a Beyonce collabo.
WELP…WE GET ANOTHER GOOD SONG..AND THE RICH GET RICHER..lol..but WE GET ANOTHER GOOD SONG!…will be listening to it on MYSPACE AND YOUTUBE!!!
Im soooo freakin ready 2 hear that song they did 2getha!!!OMG!!This song is gonna be HUUUGGGEEE!!!!
I CANT WAIT IM SUPER EXCITED I GUESS LIKE THEY SAY ALICIA IF U CANT BEAT EM JOIN EM LOL BUT NAW I WANA HEAR THE SONG NOWWW DIS IS GONNA BE EPIC
I’m glad I’ve been waiting for them to make a song together.
Yeaa that comparison was a lilttle extreme ( seriously) buh I’m looking foward to hearing what they put out.
I know you stan for Beyonce and all..but the Mariah/Whitney comparison was extreme…this song they did (I listened to it) is nowhere near “When You Believe”…
