NEW MUSIC: ALICIA KEYS

Here is a snipped of a new Alicia Keys song entitled "Dreaming" which will more than likely be included on her new album "The Element of Freedom" set for a December 14th release.

This song is dope. It has a laidback, 70's cosmic feel that makes me think of the work of Norman Conners and Roberta Flack during that period. Why didn't Alicia put this out! Her first and second singles are kind of whack just because the instrumentals seem discombobulated, and off with the vocal part. Yet "Dreaming" is jazzy and very much a movement. I hope the rest of "The Element of Freedom" follows this motif, and the single choices thus far released are not indicative of the the main feel of the album.
