Alicia
Augello Cook, known as Alicia Keys, was born on January 25, 1981 in a
neighborhood of lower-class Manhattan, New York. At age 7, his parents decided
to enroll her in piano lessons, to her keep away from drugs and prostitution
lurking in her neighborhood.
She is very single-minded, because from the first
moment she began piano lessons she showed to have similarities with artists
like D'Angelo or Prince talent. She was a self-sufficient
girl, because at the age of 14 with her talent, developed composition,
production and recording of her first album, she wrote her first song called
Butterflyz, from her album Songs in A Minor.
Alicia is
very thick-skinned, because of her
personality, back when she was in high school she was very criticized by her
teammates, she never felt intimidated to continue and she succeeded the pressure,
gossip and the hard times.
With
excellent grades she managed to graduate high school before the rest of the students.
She immediately enrolled at Columbia University, but quickly withdrew her
college career, because her real passion was music.
She is very career-oriented, strength to achieve
what inspires is the music, which undoubtedly led her to become a big star.
After chasing her dreams Alicia Keys, at age 31, is a
14-time Grammy Award winner, an actress, an accomplished singer, songwriter and
music producer, she has sold worldwide over 20 million records and has won
eleven Billboard Awards and three American Music Awards.
After succeeding in a great career, Alicia is a very kind-hearted person, is Co-Founder and
Global Ambassador of “Keep a Child Alive (KCA)” to people's movement that
provides treatment to HIV / AIDS in Africa and India.
The things I like about her are her voice and her songs. But what I really like about her is her perseverance, passion and good
heart. For that and more, Alicia Keys is
my favorite character.
