:: I've put some webfind
caps and webfind
hq caps from Alicia's performance on "Tonight Show
with Jay Leno" on May 3. If anyone has a video from this
show please contact me.
:: From Teen People: It's hard to believe that a superstar
like Alicia Keys has to deal with boyfriend drama. But according
to the 24-year-old piano princess, her guy (a behind-the-scenes
industry type) gets jealous watching her canoodle with hip-hop
hotties like Method Man and Mos Def in videos. Obviously,
Alicia has her hands full. But fortunately, she channels everything
into love songs we can all relate to - and they've earned
her a truckload of Grammys. Now Alicia's working on a literary
project she hopes fans will be feeling as much as her music:
She's melding pieces of her journals with fiction for an upcoming
book - a natural, considering her current album is called
The Diary of Alicia Keys. "The other day, I was reading
this entry from when I was 11, and it was so funny to look
back," she says. But Alicia won't be holed up somewhere,
writing away. She may be popping up alongside His Royal Badness
(aka Prince) for a few tour dates. And if her main squeeze
has a problem with that, we're sure Alicia will find a way
to work it into a song or a story. Click

:: Police are New York's finest and firemen are New York's
bravest. Now a campaign, created by Agent 16 and directed
by Joel Schumacher, positions teachers as New York's brightest.
The centerpiece of the effort, for the New York City Department
of Education, is a 60-second spot that shows children pasting
up pictures of teachers over posters of celebrities Alicia
Keys, Giants running-back Tiki Barber and DJ Junior Vasquez
throughout Manhattan. As they cover images of Alicia Keys
near Town Hall, a voiceover states, "Some of New York's
most admired figures don't sell out concerts." The narration
continues, "They'll never be a running back for the Giants.
And they probably won't go platinum. But to millions of kids,
their teachers are still the biggest heroes in their world.
Join New York's brightest. Teach NYC." The ad began running
April 14.

:: Thursday night's stop in Phoenix by the "Ladies First
Tour" could have been viewed as a contest, pitting Grammy
queens Beyonce and Alicia Keys, as well as Missy Elliott,
who's won a few Grammys herself. But instead, with each delivering
a strong set with a style of its own, the four-hour jam at
America West Arena ended up a friendly showcase of three of
R&B and rap's strongest female stars. There was something
for any fan of urban music, between Elliott's good-natured
rapping, Keys' neo-soul and Beyonce's dance-crazy R&B
(...) Keys, known for her classy, piano-driven catalog, chose
to lay on the old-school soul influences thick, which was
fine with the audience. After a dramatic intro of simulated
thunder and lightning, Keys appeared in red fedora, red shirt
and skin-tight black slacks to perform a funked-up take on
"Karma". She then kicked her tight band into a take
on the new "Heartburn" that would have made James
Brown proud. All the while, Keys was shaking her body in sexy
dance moves that were part Prince and part Tina Turner. Keys
burned things up further with 2001's "Rock Wit U,"
before letting the crowd catch its breath. Taking off her
hat to show her famous braids, she moved over to her grand
piano to play "A Woman's Worth." That featured Keys
and her own group of talented dancers doing flamenco-style
moves over a horn-and-conga jam. Keys turned the heat up a
few more notches during the new lovemaking theme, "Slow
Down," crawling up on and reclining on her piano to shouts
from the men in attendance. A hypnotic treatment of her early
hit, "Fallin'," set the bar extremely high for Beyonce.

April 15, 2004
:: The review by Maya Boyd from The Black World Today: The
"Ladies First" concert tour was quite a spectacle
Monday evening at Madison Square Garden. Beyonce, Alicia Keys,
Missy Elliott and Tamia put on a show worth the standing ovation
they received. Perhaps the only problem was determining who
gave the best performance. In actuality, there is an artistic
equivalence with these ladies. Of course, the finale or headliner
of the concert was Beyonce, and she definitely earned her
crown. Her voice was as invigorating as her dancing. The visually
stimulating costume changes included everything from a rhinestone
studded bikini top with "Daisy Dukes" to Dorothy
style "Ruby" red slippers with four inch heeled
pumps. The surprise appearances at the event included "Big
Boi" from Outkast, Destiny's Child members Kelli Rowland
and Michelle Williams. But the show stopper was when Jay-Z
came out for the "Crazy in Love" duet. Alicia Keys
played the piano keys with perfection. Her talent reigns as
an original for the new generation of artists and I believe
is comparable to such all-time greats as Stevie Wonder and
Lauryn Hill. Missy Elliott was a breath of fresh air with
her take on hip hop being innovative and exploitative. Tamia
has a grace that is unquestionable and her voice is strong
yet soft. This was one of the best all-women concerts ever!
