Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

By the time this long-awaited album saw its release date, most fans had probably read at least a couple of interviews with Alicia Keys in which she explained that first single, "No One"--a firestorm of a song clearly born of a sore heart and steeped in serious soul-searching, was about her decision to retreat from the obligations of stardom when she found out a loved one was in need of her care. The anecdote sticks not just because it explained the song so well--you can actually hear the pain, commitment, and determination in her sultry voice--but because it gets at what makes the woman behind the music so appealing. There's only one way R&B artists grow to become legends, and it's by drenching the words they sing with feeling (think Gladys Knight, Roberta Flack). The skeptical listener might have had her doubts before As I Am, but there's no mistaking it now: Alicia Keys is well on her way to sharing a category with them. This record radiates not just old-soul maturity, the kind Alicia fans say makes her modern rarity, but real soul. Vintage-leaning hooks and horns grab hold on "Where Do We Go from Here" and an assortment of other songs, but Keys can also get by just fine without them, as she proves on more pop-flavored numbers like "Lesson Learned," with John Mayer, and "Superwoman." The genres may be smearing, she seems to say, but bring them on: she won't shrink back. Her commitment is not to a single style but to what's stirring her soul. Because of it, she's moving R&B, or something like it, from the hips back to the heart. --Tammy La Gorce

5.0 out of 5 stars As She Is.., 19 Nov 2007
This review is from: As I Am + DVD (Audio CD)
Personally i thought her previous albums out-shun this one (only slightly), but as an avid fan i still rate it a 5*. As always her introduction shows off her flawless talent on the keys and the following track 'Go Ahead' does justice to the whole album in general and gets you ready for what's to come. Listen out for her debut single 'No One' and also the tracks 'Wreckless Love', 'Lesson Learned', 'Superwoman' ...I could go on to analyse all the tracks but i think it's safe to assume that you will not be dissapointed...She's done it again!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this album, 9 Nov 2007
By R. Fernandez (Barcelona, Catalonia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: As I Am + DVD (Audio CD)
I am not going to compare with her previous albums, but this is a GREAT album itself.

I really love it! (though don't love that much Alicia's new look).

1.0 out of 5 stars I enjoyed her past music, This new Album was not that good., 25 May 2008
This review is from: As I Am (Audio CD)

Fans will always give her songs a 5 star rating and will not take any negative feedback about the new Album "As I Am".

I've enjoyed her past music and even bought a DVD-Audio 24bit 192khz version which still today sounds clear,

beautiful, soul like with a touch of blues & R&B. GREAT! 5/5+


I bought her new Album "As I Am", & played it for the first time but just did not feel the music.

I gave the Album a few months to try again to feel the music but still the album had no feel to it.

It lacked in true R&B soul like which the past Album had a lot of. No true black music feel,

I did not think she offered anything Deep Blue Soul like feel to the new Album. Shame!

Sorry, for the fans, but this is how I feel about the Album in my view.

My view she needs to go back to true black roots and bring back the R&B feel.


e.g. Soul R&B blues to me is like Aretha Franklin song from

"SO AMAZING AN ALL-STAR TRIBUTE TO LUTHER VANDROSS" TRACK NUMBER 5 "A House Is Not A Home" PERFECT!

Even Alicia Keys song from this Album was GREAT 5/5+. Track 7 "If This World Were Mine" PERFECT! 5/5+
