Black History Month: Alicia Keys

Alicia Keys is one of those singers that I would classify as having an extremely high music IQ. What I mean by that is that when it comes to music, she performs with an almost technical clarity. Messy is the last adjective that comes to mind when I think about an Alicia Keys song. That being said, Keys is also one of the most soulful singers around today. She's not afraid to bring emotion to a song, and that's one of the qualities that makes her great. Her song "No One" is the perfect mix of soul and emotion. Not to mention the vocals she displays on the song are amazing.
