[@ethioluv1dalluS]

Alicia Keys is one of the few in the industry that I think actually stays true to herself. She's so real. That is why I loooooovvve her but that is also why I think she is not as popular as other mainstream artists.

[@silork974]

so true ... 😍

[@airparris]

i agree

[@sedrickburton714]

Tsedeye Retta Not as popular ? Now yeah because she hasn't changed for anyone she was popping from 2001-2010 and then music changed but she didnt

[@kellygama921]

​@@silork974 but thats a good thing. Fame and moeny corrupts But she stayed true to the Lord. God bless her and all she touched with her music . Treasures in Earth aint worth noting. Noting at all

[@kellygama921]

​@@airparrislove u alecia stay true to the Lord We know he the truth the way and the life.

[@Meekismwisdom]

I have to come back and visit this. So raw , so many gems 💎

[@emmaaaferr]

I'm speechless. This is so real, soulful, powerful. Alicia always says how much she loves her city, Empire State Of Mind is the anthem of the glowing, majestic side of New York, but this time she's showing us the most hidden side, the reality of Brooklyn and Harlem, not Manhattan anymore. And I think that the reason why this feels so real is that she grew up in there, with a lonely mother, in a one room house, she knows what she's talking about. Songs In A Minor, one of her most acclaimed albums, was the result of this reality, I'm so happy she decided to return to her roots and be her most true, honest self. This album is going to be amazing.

[@emmaaaferr]

Angel San I agree! Music like hers is hard to find (and I'm not talking about her style, I mean music that has something to say, not songs written just to sell), but unfortunately I feel like the medias would rather focus on "shocking" or "impactful" artists, even if their works are so "eye-catching" for the wrong reasons. I feel like now it's easier for artists to become relevant for how they dress and who they cheat on than for the quality of the music they produce. It's sad, but I'm happy there are still honest artists like Alicia that stand out just for their talent.

[@vibin_dee]

Emma Ferraro Agreed

[@Rebel.heartt]

Emma Ferraro 100 per cent agreed

[@klove33]

Very true

[@theafrospacecowboy]

Hats off to you and this marvelous comment. I checked this album on Spotify and my mind is definitely BLOWN AWAY!

[@anigbochic]

forget Lemonade...this Gospel right here? this is the Truth!!! The Gospel is a timeless masterpiece. A.Keys is the definition of an artiste of our generation. God, I love this so much, the visuals & how she captures the essence of hiphop, while letting the world know what it means to be born & raised in New York...I'm not originally from NY, but i live here & i can relate to how this city has impacted her life & her music. i could watch this video all day. Beautiful

I'm touched, to think that I thought my mom was just talking n talking n that it annoys me when she nags all the time and now hearing these ppl saying what they wished someone would have told them and I realised tht I am privileged to have her telling me things that persons weren't told. I love you Alicia keys and I love my mom most of all.

I love how she just holds a mirror up at us all & let's us take a peek at a slice of real life & this reality. It's so raw, honest, soulful & deep. baring her heart, soul, mind & face. This kind of honesty is so rare today & it's a beautiful thing, AK.

[@vtherealone1953]

She Plays the piano, composes, sings, performs and raps. Her physical appearance and her soul must be beautiful. One of the only authentic and complete artists you can find conveying a profound and universal message of love, diversity, tolerance and wisdom. One love Alicia 💗💛💚

alicia honnestly you're new album was the best album you never records real music real soul real hiphop real jazz real alicia i have the cd and i listen it like 50 times in 1weeks thanks for that big and strong album

[@gmg03]

God, i just love this woman. I feel so connected to her, i feel like she knows me and i know her. She feels my sorrows and my most happiest moments of my life. I would like all the people in the world to know their true self and how much they are worth. To love and cherish every moment of this life and everyone around them, because an unexpected day comes and they are no longer with us and so have passed on to the afterlife. Parents, please know that every decision you make is crucial to your children's growth. The way you speak, treat, and teach them, has a major impact on how they will handle the world. Be grateful for this life, for what you have and have not, God created you to be an amazing creature. Believe it and teach it to others. Stay Bless!

[@mikeshark8869]

Sitting here watching this at 4 in the morning, wishing it was longer. Goodness, that was amazing.

[@naenae0514]

She's so raw,real and truly amazing!!

[@shamaraLthomas]

I just LOVE that Alicia has stayed true to herself and sound from beginning to the current place she is now. She isn't caught up in what everyone's doing. She hasn't had some crazy childhood fame drama. And she's amazing at everything she does. I'm so happy she's done this BEAUTIFUL, RAW, REAL look into her hometown. I'm so happy to be from NYC seeing this and I'm even more happy that this wasn't negative. I LOVE when artists use their platform to bring light to important topics. I love how this initiates positive conversations which gives us the opportunity to grow from each other's experiences, offer more of our gifts for the greater good, and appreciate life more.

[@SharonMwangi1612]

When I shared Holy War with a friend, they told me something I agreed with totally. Alicia Keys is no longer trying to get fans. Her music now is not so that people can love her,she is writing music and connecting with people on a different dimension. For her,it's about the talent not money anymore.

[@tyasstewart509]

Yes, I agree too. That's one of the reasons why I love Alicia Keys. #AKistheTruth

[@franciscrivelari]

Sharn Mwangi I'm loving this era of artists really putting themselves into their music, it's beautiful! Lemonade, Joanne, HERE, all masterpieces!

[@Tomer4love]

Sharn Mwangi she never was that commercial as I said. 90% of her music was all pure art without thinking about charts and stuff like this.

[@SharonMwangi1612]

tomer barel very true. She's been authentic with her feelings and how she writes her music. She releases a song and I'm like,she has outdone herself,then another and another until you realise she is exceptionally outstanding. You realise,it's not about her, it's about me. How is she talking to me in that one breath, millions across the globe. I am in awe of her. #AKistheTruth

[@AntonioNeto-if7fl]

Mate, I need to say that I am so happy with this new phase of Alicia. Damn, this woman plays with my feelings in such kind of way that I can't explain it at all. My compliments from Brazil!

[@Raine4Lo23]

I grew up in Harlem and she capture the true essence of our city. It's griddy, rough, depressing but it also has its beauty and history too it's hard to capture that in 20 mins and she did great... 👍👍👍

[@MUVAMILK]

I love Alicia so much. I can't remember a time I didn't listen to her. My mom listened to her so naturally I grew up on her music.

[@tapwaterthirstoflife7605]

*NOW THIS DESERVES ALBUM OF THE YEAR.* This was better than a whole bunch of overrated albums this year. This was so real, comprehensible, philosophical and brilliantly beautiful. I believe a broader range of people can CONNECT to this. Reminds me of The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. It was so authentic - like AKeys herself who is so talented and smart, she doesn't rely on sex, drugs, liquor, hoeing or any other gimmick to be cool and make money. Other artists (you know who!) are brainwashing the youth. There are themes and a discourse in this that is greater than gender, race, sexuality, culture etc. This moved me!!

[@emmacoralimoundodjeumeni4253]

This woman is incredible an emotional and so pure human being so trong and true...good example..

[@claytongriffith8323]

She is a truly amazing artist the way she communicates with people is so inspiring.

[@AdamJMusic23]

This album shows Alicia entering a new chapter in her life & this album is so heartfelt; Honest? Brave, True, Real & Raw. She is unafraid to live her truth & speaks about what she cares about, world issues & all the injustices we endure... I really love so much of this album & all the ones b4 but l really wish 'we are here' was also included here, even as a bonus album track as that song is just Sooo Amazing !!!

[@zotshomarketing769]

This was so incredibly put togather, each chapter had a clear positive discription of day to day life in the the hood Alicia Keys made sure that the positive values are shown in each chapter and that the hood is not only just drugs,sex and crime.

[@petertownsend2255]

It's been a long time since I ACTUALLY BOUGHT A CD.. but I diffidently needed the CD this is a classic..so i just had to have a physically copy I can touch read the album "sleeve" and just be a part of it..so soulful I get a a nice 90's vibes, all the tunes well written, peace a love looking forward to your UK tour

I'm SO ready for the album to drop now! AK is going in and deeper than ever with this one!

[@KatKiddEnt]

Alicia Keys!! You are like my younger sister from another mother, I SWEAR!!! The similarities are crazy! When you talk about being solicited and how it made you hide & start dressing down, not wanting to wear dresses & skirts! That is SO ME!!

[@mattitrimble2539]

Alicia is one of my biggest inspirations. this is why.

[@JazSimone]

Even though I don't relate to this, nor do I agree whatsoever with how these people think... I really commend Alicia 100% on CREATION. It seems like this concept of "creativity" just died in like 2009/2010ish with all these new artists and stayed stagnant the whole time. I just want to see people producing things that are DIFFERENT. That express themselves... And that aren't so cookie cutter all the time. Good for her and let's keep it up.

[@NYCITY3]

Sorry what do you mean by your comment "nor do i agree with how these people think" do you mean Black People?

[@deealexandra6928]

NYCITY3 I believe she was referring to today's artists, since she does go on to talk about how creativity has died with these new artists . Not always about race my friend

[@NYCITY3]

Thanks Dee:)

[@AdamJMusic23]

With all due respect U don't hav2 agree with these views or ppl...Just know they are real & come from a place of honesty & integrity. (We can't learn without being open & we can't fix what we precieve 2b whole.)

[@praiseandworshipsongs6800]

I have been transported to God's Holy Presence. Oh Sweet Jesus tis so good to worship you with this blessed hymns. I mean I am feeling all "floaty" (if that is even a word) but in my heart there is this warm fuzzy feeling like it is about to burst and I am smiling so much. It is really heaven on earth. Bless the soul who took the time to compile these hymns May God embarrass you with favor all round. You are mightily blessed Emmanuel and Shalom to you.
