The waiting has finally ended. Alicia Keys has unveiled her new album ‘KEYS’. It is a double album. The first part is known as the Originals and the second part is the Unlocked. It is a one-and-a-half-hour-long album that has twenty-six songs in it.
Alicia Keys is not only a songwriter but a pianist too. In this album, she has showcased her talent here. In her previous songs, she has shown her talent as a pianist but in this album in the Originals part, she has filled it with piano. On the other hand, the Unlocked version has the vibe of drums and upbeat music.
In KEYS there are songs for every mood. If people want to enjoy the effortless and melodious voice of Alicia then the Originals part is appropriate for it, and if they want to enjoy some upbeat music then they can always listen to the Unlocked part of the KEYS.
The Originals has a more laid-back feeling than the Unlocked version, this album has justified the double release.
In the pandemic, Alicia wrote all the songs of KEYS, and maybe this was the best use of the whole pandemic time.
It is her eighth album, effectively it’s the same album twice. But the Unlocked version, describes more piano and vocals.
Two versions of one album is a completely new thing for everyone. Where in the Original side has the classic side Alicia, on the other hand, the Unlocked has the sonic side of her.
