Hits are what sell albums, and she has an album packed full of them here. It'll be fine and recover.

 

Hopefully, but there are tons of acts historically who have produced strings of hit singles yet failed to ignite much interest in their albums and vice versa.

Not sure if you saw my post, but please reduce the size of your sig as it is too big. Thanks.

 

Is it still too big. :unsure:

4 :up: (from 5) Alicia Keys - Empire State Of Mind (Part II) [D]

Chart Run: 52-48-xx-35-23-15-7-5-4 [8 wks]

 

Format: download only track

 

Precocious R&B vocalist/pianist Alicia Keys was hand-picked by Clive Davis as one of the flagship artists for his post-Arista label, J Records. No doubt he was as impressed by her multitude of skills (Keys took a large role in the writing, arranging, and production of her debut album) as by her music, which mates contemporary hip-hop accoutrements to an old-school soul sensibility a la Jill Scott or D'Angelo. Only 20 years old at the time of the album's release, Keys already seemed poised for a major career built upon her soulful voice and classically trained piano chops. While hip-hop played a much bigger role on her second effort, 2003's THE DIARY OF ALICIA KEYS, it was a smash nonetheless, and subsequent recordings have further pushed the boundaries of R&B - HMV

Afraid so! Sorry - one of the pics you have would be ok though :D

Like Jay Sean.. he does well with the singles but no one seems to be interested in his album :( which is actually really good

 

and :lol: at in your face JLS.. how random

This keeps on growing on me, at first I thought it was just 'okay' but it's such a good song to chill out to. Love it.
Great to see Allicia climbing, with the album staying number 1 again this week it be hamper the chance of the isngle going top 3, but its great to see alicia having such strong success with this whole era,long may it last.
I would really much rather this was 'Try Sleeping...'

Agreed.. I love that song :wub:

& kind of bored of Empire State of Mind.. version with Jay Z & without

If We Ever Meet Again :wub:

 

Hopefully a future number 1? Or maybe not because of the Haiti Relief song :(
