Alicia Keys: The New Priestess Of Soul
Stevie Chick, MOJO, March 2013
Raised in Hell's Kitchen and classically trained, Alicia Keys was a teenage musical misfit who tried her best "to be a boy". Over a decade later she's collaborated with everyone from Jack White to Stevie Wonder, been name-checked by Bob Dylan, and managed to "eliminate the bullshit" to claim her place as... The New Priestess Of Soul.
