In celebration of her book, today TIDAL is releasing A Preview of More Myself: A Journey. The preview includes a chapter from Alicia Keys’ audiobook and visuals highlighting her collab with Oprah.
The book tracks her upbringing in the Big Apple’s Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood all the way to becoming a world famous musician.
According to Amazon, “In More Myself, Alicia Keys shares her quest for truth?about herself, her past, and her shift from sacrificing her spirit to celebrating her worth. With the raw honesty that epitomizes Alicia’s artistry, More Myself is at once a riveting account and a clarion call to readers: to define themselves in a world that rarely encourages a true and unique identity.”
In Chapter 11: “Empire,” Alicia remembers Barack Obama’s inauguration, discusses her relationship with husband, Swizz Beats, breaks down how “Empire State of Mind” became a global success and more.
In the chapter, Jay Z and Alicia both narrate the making of their hit, Empire State of Mind, and how it almost didn’t happen-
In addition to the chapter itself, TIDAL is also sharing three visuals which show Alicia’s journey creating this book under Oprah’s publishing. The visuals include a lunch date with Oprah, selecting the official book cover, and Alicia’s delight upon reading a sweet text message from Ms. Winfrey.
