Alicia Keys has revealed new details about her forthcoming album. Her albums have often been released in November and December, but a she has a different time of due date this time around: her second baby.
"December album? Well, I know one thing. I'm having a December baby," the singer told Billboard.
She and husband, producer-rapper Swizz Beatz, know the sex of the baby, but aren't making the information public. The newborn will join the couple's musically included son, Egypt, who turns 4 next month.
"He's a little music fanatic. He has all this rhythm. He loves to dance. He can play drums. He can beatbox," Keys told them. "I think that you do see how just the influence of music and perhaps it is in the DNA, and perhaps it is a part of the magic of what's inside of the parents that it's coming through him."
Keys' upcoming effort will follow-up 2012's Girl on Fire, which won a Grammy this year for Best R&B album. Although she hasn't revealed the release date for the upcoming record, she says it will include production from Pharrell and that fans can expect some of her best material.
"What I know for a fact is it's the best music I've ever done in my life yet and it's really exciting to be able to have this kind of growth, this type of opportunity," she said. "The music's actually pretty much done already and so you'll be hearing some of it soon."
