mm mm mmm!


people, alicia keys can SANG. i love her albums, but i love even more to watch her live, because (did i already mention?) she can sing her face off! beyonce may get all the press, but alicia has just as much of a gift. there is something mesmorizing in her voice - maybe it's passion, maybe it's just raw skill - either way, i could sit and soak it up like a sponge.

guess what i'll be listening to at the gym this afternoon?

Yeah, she can sing... and her butt is not undelicious.

yes, she can SANG. beyonce is a step behind alicia when it comes to the vocals.

and whoa, shakira should not have sang at all last night. her "tone" (if you want to call it that) was painful, like she was trying too hard.

then again, if i was standing in line with mariah, alicia, beyonce, faith, and mary j, i would probably sound like doo doo too! hahaha.

man, i loved that line-up. they all "taught" me how to try to sing, since i never had a formal teacher.

but alicia...so SO good!

Her song "Ghetto Story" is the ringtone that plays when my brother calls me. Oh yeah;)

It is difficult for me to compare her gift to Beyonce's without a photo of Beyonce.
