Ahead of her double album KEYS, Alicia Keys presents her newest single “Best of Me.”
The slow-burning groove was written by Alicia and Raphael Saadiq and samples Sade’s “Cherish the Day.” She has released two versions, the “Original” and the “Unlocked” produced by Mike WiLL Made-It.
“Every time I hear this song I lose my mind!!” said Alicia. “Get ready to be addicted.”
Alicia has also shared a preview of the romantic video, which co-stars her husband Swizz Beatz.
“Best of Me” follows “LALA (Unlocked)” with Swae Lee off Alicia’s first album in a little over a year, KEYS, due Dec. 10. The project will feature two sides: “Originals” with “laidback piano vibes” and “Unlocked” with “upbeat, drums, level up vibes.”
