Alicia Keys Collaborates With Emeli Sande for Fifth Album, Recording Was a 'Natural Process'

Gino DePinto, AOL

Scottish singer Emeli Sande is one of the few people who have heard songs comprising Alicia Keys' forthcoming fifth album. Keys, who collaborated with the 25-year-old on "Hope," a track featured on her debut LP, Our Version of Events, chose to work with Sande on the highly-anticipated opus after meeting her in London during her Piano & I tour last year.

"We've been working together on her next album... [Alicia Keys is] fantastic," Sande tells The BoomBox. "I love writing and I love working with her. It was awesome."

Keys has released scarce details surrounding her "musical cake" of a new album, which is currently untitled. "Not Even a King," a song the 31-year-old New York native debuted earlier this year, could possibly show up on the effort.

Sande has been privy to listening to the final product and has even shared her own songwriting talents with Alicia Keys to craft songs for her fifth soundscape.

"It sounds amazing," Sande says of Keys' upcoming LP. "I think everyone's going to really, really enjoy it. It was just such a natural process for us to work and nothing felt forced. I think the songs are testament to that, in that the songs really sound... I don't know how to put it. You'll just have to see. I mean it sounds great."

In 2011, Alica Keys re-released her seminal album, Songs in A Minor. Her fifth LP will serve as a follow-up to 2009's The Element of Freedom.

Emeli Sande is awesome. I'm glad that her and a long-time artist like Alicia Keys have collaborated. I have also been getting into Paloma Faith. She's another great female vocalist and R&B singer. What do you guys like better Emeli's song, "Next To Me" or Paloma Faith's "Picking Up The Pieces" ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ijel4Vcqd9g&feature=player_embedded

This is absolutely free, very easy all you need is an internet facility.

I have been using this system for some time now; I will be showing you how to make unlimited cash with your liberty reserve account and a perfect money account. I will try to make it as short as possible. But clear, just like every other business your interest and seriousness counts

"The reward for hard work is success"

THIS IS HOW IT WORKS

1. open a liberty reserve account at www.libertyreserve.com ( this is free)

2. Open a perfect money account at www.perfectmoney.com (this is free)

3. Fund your liberty reserve account with a minimum of 11 USD, because of transaction charges, actually you needed a minimum of 10 USD.

(Note: To fund or sell your liberty reserve, go to www.google.com to search for an exchanger close to you.)

4. Go to www.softxchanger.page.tl , and exchange 10 USD from your liberty reserve account to your perfect money account.

1 LR------>1.28 PM, so 10 LR----> 12.80 PM.

5. Go to www.superchange.ru or www.swapgold.com , exchange 12.80 Perfect money to 11.01liberty reserve.

1 PM ----> 0.86 LR, so 12.80 PM--->11.01 LR. You have gain 1.01 USD

6. Repeat the exchange process from LR---->PM--->LR .



You can always increase your capital, because the more money you exchange the faster u make your cash. I can make up to 257 USD per day. Doing up to 25 exchanges per hour. But there is also no harm in starting small.

The only place where success comes before work is the Dictionary."

Disclaimer

How much money you make depends on your capital and the amount of time you put into this venture.



GOOD LUCK TO YOU.

Text 3060402 to 69937 for Night Time by Tyler Shemwell...G-ESTEEM.

/I'm I doing too much/Or losing my touch/...a brilliantly written song about "can't wait until night time to party," with lines like,/Riding through the slum/Where I'm from/A place where crack fiends and fat girls love me the most/Some never made it home to take their work clothes off/Afraid they going to miss something/.This negro can rhyme.

-"Real and A Good Time".

STAY BOW-LEGGED & THICK. G-ESTEEM (Presidential Election Nov 6, 2012).
