I don’t know what it is about Alicia Keys presence, but she manages to inspire me every time she speaks. Needless to say, that her 73 Questions interview with Vogue — that was filmed in February — it is really a motivational video as the 39-year-old singer describes a handful of songs in their huge house, including feminism and the importance of representation in music.
He stressed that his organization, She Is the Musicwhich unites, supports and promotes women working in all facets of the music industry. “I would love to see more women at the table and that is what we are talking about and what we are creating, and, you know, there are more women engineers and more women producers and more women in the board rooms, you know, more women actually creating the world we want,” he said. Then she talked about what feminism means to her, saying: “Feminism to me just means that the power of a woman, and honor, and cherish, and really lift it up and worship him.”
If that is not enough to encourage you, then perhaps your sincere response about the conquest of one of the main obstacles is. “The most difficult challenge I had to overcome was probably really recognizing that the power I was looking for or the answers I was looking for within me, as opposed to outside of me,” he said. Preach.
The singer also talked about hosting this year’s Grammys, as well as his next album, Aliciaand your book of memories More To Myselfwhich hit the shelves in the month of March. On the opening of the book, Alicia said, “More To Myself it is definitely a theme and a place where I feel really understand more about how to become my authentic self, and I wanted to share some of those trips with you because I believe that we are all searching for the truth and a reality in our lives.” See the full interview above, which includes an adorable cameo from Alicia of 9-year-old son, egypt!
