Free Music Notes for The Diary of Alicia Keys
Free Music Review: I like it
Hit: 4 Stars
The albums starts off very strong. The first 7 tracks are all great, they include the singles Karma, You Dont Know My Name, Diary & If I aint Got You. The album seems to peak after Diary because the album hits a low point with Dragon Days which is the worst song I have heard from her. After Dragon Days the album starts to sound like any old R&B album with songs like Wake Up, So Simple, & When You Really Love Someone. Even though they are good songs they are not as good as the first seven tracks. Slow Down is a great ballad that stands out. Than the album finish off with Samsonite man which is just another song to me. Nobody not really is a good song and a great way to finish off. In conclusion this album has a lot of strong songs and even the songs that are not as strong are still enjoyable (except for dragon days).I would recomend this CD to anyone that like R&B music that has substances.
The Diary of Alicia Keys Poster
Alicia Keys has more than lived up to the promise of her formidable debut Songs in A Minor, pushing beyond her flirtation with old-school soul and venturing into the modern world, even hiring Timbaland to guide her through the shoals of anthemic hip-hop on the breathless and funkified "Heartburn." Sounding like a hyperthyroid cheerleader, Keys unleashes a quirky sense of humor that no one even suspected she possessed. Her effortless singing on the beat-driven "Karma" is a wonder of sonics on this uplifting piece of pop philosophy, giving countless anxious woman hope that everything will work out as it's meant to, or on "Samsonite Man," where it won't. But despite her edgy styling and jazzy vocal posturing, Keys hasn't abandoned her love for old R&B and travels back in time, giving Gladys Knight's "If I Was Your Woman" a face lift it may not have needed, then turns around and recasts the song as the winsome and dramatic "You Don't Know My Name." But at its heart, The Diary of Alicia Keys is a gross misnomer. After listening to the disc, fans will know little more about the elusive diva than they did before, her lyrical style consistently more narrative than confessional. In fact, the title track doesn't delve into the singer's inner life, but instead is about a long-distance love affair, with Keys promising the object of her affection that: "I won't tell your secrets/Your secrets are safe with me/I will keep your secrets/Just think of me as the pages in your diary."--Jaan UhelszkiR&B Music CDs
