Review

Alicia Keys' third studio masterpiece, "As I Am," dropped in 2007 and is an intoxicating cocktail of soul, R&B, and jazz, showing off her evolution as a stellar singer-songwriter. This 14-track journey delves into the rich complexities of love, relationships, and self-empowerment. Kicking off with the introspective "As I Am (Intro)," the album sets a reflective mood with poignant piano strokes.

Highlights like "Superwoman" and "No One" shine bright, showcasing Keys' ability to craft emotive ballads that hit home. "Superwoman" stands out with its uplifting anthem vibes, while "No One" lets Keys' powerful vocal range dance with unmatched emotional intensity. Tackling heartbreak, "Like You’ll Never See Me Again" serves a soulful reminder to live in the moment. A notable curveball comes with John Mayer on "Lesson Learned," blending soft rock flavors with soulful R&B grooves. With polished production from Keys, Kerry Brothers Jr., Jack Splash, and Linda Perry, "As I Am" showcases an artist at her peak, harmonizing personal lyrics and impeccable craftsmanship. This chart-topping gem solidifies Keys' spot as an R&B queen with its enduring appeal. - Lena
