It's Alicia Keys birthday, to celebrate here's her top ten songs

Alicia Keys has been a big player in the RnB scene for a long time now, her first big album dropped back in 2001 to be exact.

Also, today is her birthday, so we thought what better way to celebrate her amazing music than through posting her best tracks.

Enjoy the tunes here:

10: In Common (Kaskade Radio Mix) 

This remix of the funky tune is the first time she was put in the world of future house, and it's not bad at all!

9: Blended Family (What You Do For Love) ft. A$AP Rocky

This was the first time Alicia has teamed up with a member of the A$AP Mob, and the resulting track was dope. Flacko's chill flow really works with the whole sound of this one.

8: De Novo Adagio (Intro)

This track doesn't feature Alicia's wonderful vocals, but instead shows off her talent on the keys. There's no question about how beautiful this piece is.

 

7: In Common

Sitting higher in the list than the house remix of this tune, In Common really shows her ability to combine genres through the use of her amazing vocals.

6: My Boo (With Usher)

This was a collaboration that was bound to happen at some point, and definitely delivered, the combination of both their vocal abilities really shines through and makes for a solid tune.

5: Fallin'

Referred to as her signature song, Fallin' yet again shows off her amazing voice in a more gospel styled track.

4: Empire State of Mind, Pt II (Broken Down)

Breaking down her most famous feature really brought a lot of attention Keys' way. Taking Jay Z off the track and getting rid of the hard hitting drums really brings out Alicia's raw talent, and makes for an epic crescendo at the end. 

3: No One 

Capturing the attention of the millennials and cementing her spot on the pop charts was what this track did perfectly when it released in 2007.

2: Girl On Fire

The interesting thing about this song is that the original is a very rare find these days. The album had the Bluelight version on it, as does every streaming service. 

1: If I Ain't Got You

A number of influences were present when Alicia wrote her number one track. The death of Aaliyah, 9.11 and other personal battles were said to have had an influence on this track.
