Decent, but not the best!

Review Score: (6/10)
Alicia Keys has talent, but maybe I expected too much. There are a few good songs on the CD, but after no. 5, 6, I think, the CD gets tired. It was definitely worth the 10.99 that I paid, but there is much to be desired.

Her lyricism does not compare to the undiscovered talent that exists today. Her piano skills are admirable, however, she is just an okay singer with low range. She definitely does not hang with India Arie or Jill Scott, two of the most talented lyricists, singers out today.
