In reply to Clarkson.

Not true. Krucial was a big collaborator on Alicia's best work and even he lost his edge on the Element of Freedom album. Every artist peaks and falls. It doesn't mean Alicia's career is over. Look at Janet after the Superbowl and one setback after another. She may not be where she was pre-Superbowl, but she's certainly in a VERY good place! Alicia will get there too!
