Congrats Alicia. That’s what happens when an artist puts out REAL and timeless music.

Good things happening for this beautiful lady. Love you Alicia

stop hatin on ” Jayonce ” . Why are they even on your mind? This is about Alicia – she showed out, so lift her up instead of trying to tear some one else down.

I agree with the blogger who said good things happen to folks who put out real music. Alicia and Kanye are leading the way. Now we just need to get Musiq Soulchild, Life, Maxwell and India Arie on board and we are on our way!!!

@ Jus Another Opinion

AMEN TO THAT!

Go head miss Keys!! do ur thang. I don’t have ur album but from those numbers a whole lotta people do!!

JAO-

and what does Jay-z make?? according to u?

This CD is really good. If gives you that late 70′ early 80′s feel to it. It is just great.

@ wonk wonk

Did you miss the memo? Over exposed and greediness and their stans (stalker/fans is why I can’t stand them. Who said I was hating, I was being real, just like the folks that went and bought that Alicia album. The glitter dresses and fakeness and Tina and Matthew Knowles are what is bad for the music industry. The industry should be about the music so if your GIRL ain’t bringing it don’t say I’m hating!! Now its time for Mary J to come out and I will be supporting her! So hate on that!!

I think he need to go and fix the mess he made at Def Jam…take a back seat!

I’m sure the guy who writes this stuff masturbates to her picture…Guess what she doesn’t even know you are alive punk.

Jus Another Opinion

Since I am bored at work I’ll respond.

EVERYBODY in showbiz is greedy to some extent that’s why they are in the biz.I do have the American Gangster c.d and I can tell you at least my opinion of it, it’ in his top 4, hell maybe even top 3 of his collection. But only people that dislike him and MJ (GREATNESS) will remember their failure’s.

*shrugs*

and as for DEF jam yea he’s the pres. but the pres. has vice presidents and cabinet members, When things don’t go right you can’t just blame him.

@ Bahama Mama

Well since I have a paid holiday off from my job I will respond to your comment. Down play the Jay-Z stuff all you want, others at Def Jam agree with me! Until then I am sticking to what I said!

JAO

That’s nice!

I’ll take the guy in the background with his mouth ajar…….that’s a good look.

Oh and Alicia is the truth, we all know that.

i love a keys and she deserves all this success and more. but as some others have mentioned, why mention jay-z and beyonce at all? we complain that they are overexposed but we talk about them all the time (i’m one of those people so i’m not criticizing, just making a point). american gangster is not a bad album, better than kingdom come (which i also liked), and jay-z will go platinum regardless of this 70% sales drop. can’t we be happy that a black man tied elvis’s record for #1 albums? as far as beyonce…I’M SICK OF HER ASS AND APPARENTLY SHE OWNS BET TOO…THEY’RE SHOWING THE BEYONCE EXPERIENCE DVD CONCERT TONIGHT AND THE REST OF THE WEEK. See, I just have her overexposed ass more attention/advertisement. See how this all works? She doesn’t mind it at all. And honestly, I may even watch it LOL

Happy Thanksgiving!

Congrats to her but just like every other artist, her album will drop 50 -75 percent next week. It’s not a Beyonce or Jay-z thing, it’s a music industry thing.

Happy Thanksgiving

Yo! 6am, they need your wisdom on that Malinda Williams and D-Nice joint on the next page.

Good for her!! That is proof once and for all that sex isnt the only thing that sells these days.

@ Sick and Tired

^^^ Not even funny. I comment on post, and why you even want to take it personally and get so emotional over what I say on a blog is beside me. You honestly don’t understand how that makes me feel of all the ppl that post on her you remember stuff about me, my life and where I stay, cause I don’t remember what everybody else’s says so for you to pick me out… that says alot even if you don’t want to admit it! By the way how do you know I’m on here all the time, unless you are as well, look at you hiding under another screen name you are just pathetic!! Remember this if you don’t remember anything else “Those who take a stand leave a mark. I speak how I feel and I don’t jump on bandwagons so get yourself together and take your own advice and give your keyboard a rest!

Yeah, you right about that. The last thing i think about is sex with that soon to be as fat as Aretha Frankln dyke suspect.

I am so proud of her. she’s killing it. and she has the #1 single on Hot 100. Actually, she’s number 1 on 14 charts right now!!! yall ain’t knowing lol!

Congrats to Alicia she will be around for years to come.

Damn she is looking good !!! Congrats on the album sales.

First off what the HELL does Jay z and Beyonce have to do with Ms. Keys? She is talented in her own right and she probably doesnt give a good damn what they do and that is what makes her who she is. She is no Prince, but shes a modern day legend to the silly music industry as it is today. 742K is a lot of sales its hard to believe she had that many .

Good for A. Keys on her success! But, I gotta mention that her feet do look horrible!! And I agree w/ 6am Alicia has 40 yr old woman arms- yuck!

Yeah conciderin she aint no selene deeon or that yungun holly montana, but you niggras can chalk up her talent to the white side of her haratage, lord nos the black side of her would probaly have her doin that damn niggra rap.

UK SHADDDUP LOL!!!! Soul does not come from “Caucasianism”….

good job alicia you have sold more than rihanna has all year. jay z and def jam are buying awards for rihanna and spending money on videos and alicia has made more money for her record label than rihanna so im glad true talent is rising to the top in record sales.

@ kai

I beg ta’ diffa’, elvis, pat boone and berry manilow

I don’t understand why Jay-z should retire. Why is it that singers can continue until they die (James Brown) but rappers need to retire before middle age? He’s making money and a great success. Why should he settle for where he is when he can go even higher?

Wow! That number mean something…

@ EFFYOU

britney spears did jus put out an album and it went WOOD LOLOL

this is honestly alicia’s best album to date. every song here truly has meaning and you can listen to the entire cd from beginning to end which is very rare now a days. i am sooooo happy for her and can only say that it’s about time she came back and showed em what she was made of! she is gonna do big things this year. on that note…did anyone see her on the AMA’s?!?!??! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED her performance!!!

young, who the hell is Holly Montana?? lmao!!

Congrats to Alicia!!!

Jay will be alright. I read on Wikipedia that he’s worth over $500 million dollars! More than Russell Simmons. He’ll be alright. LOL!!

Alicia is very talented and her cd rocks!!!

Good job A.K!!!

She is so gorgeous. I have seen her photo on a celebrity and millionaire dating site named searchingmillionaire.com. Many men winked at her there.

yeeeeeeeah aaaaaah a 70% drop in sales is the norm with all music. AK has hella style and can play the piano but she can’t sing…seriously folks…she’s got the emotion game on lock but all that damn screaming…aaaaaaayeee

get off his dick……………….

why should jay-z retire?cos he didnt do alicia numbers?he has never done alicia nmbers .she has always sold more records per album.but guess who has sold more records total and still doing it 11 yrs later?thats right hova.so what he dropped to number eight .thats what happend to every hov album and he still sells platnum.mark my words he would outsell alicia keys overall.

why should a rapper have to retire but singers can stay till they eighty .jay-z is the only rapper of relevance left(kanye is not a real rapper so he does not count and even he needs jays association to sell records)

p.s alicia keys is NOT talented .yes she plays the piano but then again so do i.its nuthing.she does not write her songs (krucial keys ,kerry brothers does)she does not produce her music (krucial does ) and this album was written for her by other people so why is she any more talented than say rihanna or ameria or any of those other lightskinned female?her singles suck ,her albums all suck (yes i said it i bought her last two and they were weed plates)so i dont even know why she sells records .oh yes i remeber .she is a lighgtskinned girl with a piano.

Alicia is intelligent and talented and an asset to the music industry. What would we do without her? She always displays depth and class with her public image and doesn’t pander to the lowest common denominator. Yes, she has thick ankles but if you want to look at thin ankles or any other body parts go to another girl act tryin’ get noticed.

I don’t know what you all are talking about? Jay Z’s American Gangster is off the hook. That’s a bad album. As for Beyonce, she is doing her own thing in her own way. She had a great year and a fabulous tour. Bee got paid and I am sure she is happy for Alicia.

THANK YOU BRENDA!!!!

Why must we constantl compare Alicia and Beyonce, they are TWO DIFFERENT ARTISTS!!!!! Anywayz,in my opinion, Alicia has def. been sexing up her style more than she used to, I don’t care what no one says, she has, just look at the pics. She is still talented, I agree with most…..So Congrats to her!

Making It Rain on Them Hoes indeed lol

I HATE the song No One…but my opinion ain’t never stopped no show…..

Yaaawn Good morning ladies & gentlemen

We love Alicia over in the kingdom- she is a true star with real talent and can be appreciated on several levels- Alicia you bring the words “class”, “talent” and “individuality” back into this industry. You have come out just in time and spared my sanity. Thank you

She is awesome! A few days ago, I saw her ablum released on her personal blog at the celeb and millionaire club millionairecupid.com. I love it very much.

Somebody had too much turkey and turned grouchy and Full!!

jay-z does not have 10 #1 albums. he has 10 albums, but only 4 of them hit #1.

as far as alicia keys goes, it is clearly obvious that she is a real star, with real talent. why do people always wanna throw freakin’ beyonce’s name around like she’s the biggest star on the planet? alicia has more #1 albums, more hits, more grammys, and WAY bigger record sales. why isn’t she getting the same ass-kissing treatment that beyonce does?

and who said doing anything that compares to elvis is a big achievement?

there’s one every generation.

Princess Donte- I’m not the only one to big up Alicia on how gorgeous and talented she is on this blog, so that really doesn’t hold no weight in this particular example. Chose a less liked celeb. (A comment on one follows below) to generalise black people on their hating of one another.

day715- Because she isn’t flicking her hair around in a made trance and rolling on the floor like she is pocessed and liking her fingers at the camera and cocking her batty out! sex sells!

Alicia leona are the ones from this generation

Not surprised. She’s a real musician and her CD is great.

JAO – I would define hating as going to a post about Alicia Keys and talking about how much Beyonce sucks.

As for attacking you because you’re a woman – how the hell would I know you were a woman? All I know is you’re a spaz and I find you hilarious.

What Binary star you are on here just as much as I am probably not lately(cause you are not new) but you be on hear and everybody knows my story hence (Danielle Steel). Like I said before you attacked me for a joke/seriousiness but you have ppl like 6am and other men who say far worse than I do but I don’t see you attacking them. You and others like you are a eff coward. You will always be seen as something less in my eyes cause you let the nicca on here run this site and say whatever they want too! I will say whatever I want on this site so get used to it. Speaking of hating I gave ms Keys her props so what are you talking about as far as bringing up Beyonce you brung her up more than I have obviously you are a stan, cause I didn’t hear you say anything about them dissing Alicia ankles, like you and the others who are too eff scared to talk that shyt to these nicca that be on here…crawl in the corner!

Go Alicia Keys…that album is fire!…I’m so happy for her.

JAO – Please don’t have a stroke at the keyboard before I’m done getting my LOL’s off you.

As far a beyonce goes, The one time I brought her up was when I was quoting you. I’ve never owned a beyonce album so I’d make a terrible stan.

What’s the opposite of a stan, anyway? Oh yeah – that’s just a plain old stalker. That’s what you are. You probably hang out at her house with a copy of “Catcher in the Rye” in your back pocket.

Obviously I come to this site but I don’t come here to know about your life so no – I don’t know you or your story – but best believe I will stay tuned from now on because you crack me up.

And let’s be clear – i never ‘attacked’ you. I only said your comment sounded crazy as hell.

ps. Alicia Keys doesn’t need me to defend the honor of her cankles. LOL. You are wild and i don’t hate you – I LOVE YOU!!!!

AG was the shyt! 10 times better that Kingdom Come… but i thats just me i guess lol

Dam, I’m a trip. Tell me WHY Beyonce, Alicia Keys, Halle B, and Lauren London are considered good looking? I’m no ‘hater’ so retire the word and upgrade your vocab. Beauty is subjective but these people I’ve mentioned are average at best, especially Alicia and Halle. I feel like rantin’ so let it be. I think some of y’all are color stuck, as if being ‘bright’ is right. I have no problems w/ light skinned, in fact Vanessa Williams, Cassie, K.D. Aubert all kill the mentioned above any day. Wake up not all brights are right. Beauty is in all shades.*waiting for some1 to say hater*…

Alicia Keys-GOOD JOB!!!

Your right, my bad. My response was pointing out that there was no comparison, but true say it’s about this younge lady. Everyone i know is going to BUY the album- which is very unusual – we actually want her to get our money and our credit.

600pounds

I don’t think ur a hater. but u do seem to have a color complex. if you think the only reason anyone thinks they are attractive is because they “bright” Thats kinda sad actually. Sanna Lathan, Gabrielle Union Kelly Rowland all beautiful. beauty comes in all different colors. I guess i was just raised to look beyond what society tries to deem the standard.

i am a fan of alicia keys, and i will say that she’s pretty sometimes and sometimes she’s not. when she’s made up nicely, she’s beautiful, but she has a lazy eye and a wierd grin she flaunts around.

out of all the girls mentioned, i think gabby union is the most gorgeous one.

halle berry is nothing special, sorry.

AK’s hips game is official

Wow my girl doin it big real big! Alicia is really getting better with time. This CD is her largest debut for that to happen during this time when music isn’t selling is huge! She deserves these sales cause it’s not just a gimmick the CD is really great 1-14 with no skipping! If you don’t have it you are truly missing out on some good music.

Alica Keys is pure talent! Her album is the work of a genius. This album has helped me through a tough time already. Alicia is the best true artist out right now.

I wish the ignorant people on this site would go take a nap.

Now now ladies and gents – be civil to one another.

YOU GO GIRL!! MAKE IT RAIN ON THESE HOES!!CAN’T NOBODY STOP A KEYS!!!!

oh please come on Now, i luv her but she’s a lesbian
