I don't really listen to any music that you cant find on the top 40 list, unless you we are talking about my extensive collection of Disney music. I think a lot of people would then assume that I just listen to pop garbage, and to that I beg to differ. One of my favorite artists is Alicia Keys. While she is definitely a popular artist, she is so much different than cookie-cutter band.
Her single
Unbreakable was released in 2005, and it really represents Alicia Keys' music as a whole. Her songs never seem to have a predictable melody, which is different than a lot of other R&B singers. Her voice is also is sort of raspy, which I think makes her songs sound more genuine. You can hear the honesty in her voice, as opposed to using auto-tune.
I really love the music video for this song too, because she is trying to show that she hasn't lost her sense of community. She isn't wearing flashy clothes, and a lot of the video focuses the people that have gathered to watch her. The song is about how she isn't any different from all of these people, and while her wealth say otherwise....I actually believe her.
