Ask Alicia Keys Anything
What do you want to ask Alicia Keys?
Soul superstar Alicia Keys will be performing an exclusive session for 1Xtra and Radio 1 at Maida Vale on January 20th and you can be part of the audience by entering our competition. See more details here.
As part of the show, Trevor will also be interviewing Alicia and we want you to tell us what he should be asking her! It could be anything from...er, how she likes her toast in the morning to what it was like working with Jay-Z.
*Thank you for your questions. We are no longer taking anymore for Alicia Keys.
You can hear highlights of the session and the interview on Trevor's show at 7pm on January 23rd. Plus, MistaJam will play out the full session on Monday 25th from 7pm :-)

Question for Alicia Keys interview:
I know you have From Tha Ground Up. You have alot of influence on youth and children need to see something other than adults in the club and popping bottles on videos. Have you thought of starting an educational organization like Keep A Child Alive ? Children of color need to be introduced to the worlds of Science,Mathmatics, Politics,Finance and Law Enforcement. If there are more people of color in these areas then our children will be less prone to poverty which keeps them away from crime. It would be great if celebrities could donate money to the education of disadvantaged youth. Also for community centers to be built in each state.

I love Alicia Keys' music! A few years ago to mark the opening of a recording studio at my high school we recorded songs by Alicia Keys.
Would you like to hear our version of Fallin'?

There has been a rivalry between you and Rihanna. The papers are saying that you cannot stand each other. Is this true?

I really enjoy some of your songs, particularly Fallin'. You have the luck of being a contemporary pop artists who composes what they perform. Given your position, do you have ethics when the time comes to compose, or are you compelled to curb your music for the sake of pop; i.e. as it comes? Or what the charts/management dictate?

you have a signature style as far as your music is concerned. When can we expect something completely different that is not typically your iconic style?

To what extent do you think that being a pianist will give you longevity over other artists - in an industry that often submerges talent over commercial values.

Alicia,
Firstly, happy birthday for the the 25th! Hope you have an amazing day!
My questions for you:
1. What has been your favourite album of the year?
2. Would you ever have a 'piano-off' with Lady Gaga? Also, who would win?!?! Think that would be pretty cool to see!
3. Keep a Child Alive has been a massive success and has helped thousands of children in Africa. In the future, would you ever build another organisation to tackle a different world issue, and if so, what would it be?
4. Just for fun: what was the last prank you played on someone?! hehe
Hope you enjoy your stay in the UK and all the best for 2010! :)
much love

P.S. I would have been in the audience if caller 1 didn't get the question right! grr!!

Hello Alicia,
Where do you get ispiration for your songs from? Does it just come into your head or do you think for ages on what the lyrics are? Also if you wasn't a singer what would you want to be?

Heey Alicia!
We all know you are an artist who loves to stay connected to your fans/FAM. Just wondering if you'd ever consider doing a show for your fanclub members? would be one heck of a show and so much laughs! We're not all crazy :oP
