Alicia Keys - "28 Thousand Days"
Alicia Keys has been laying low for the past few years, with her last official single coming in the form of the heartfelt and poignant ballad "We Gotta Pray." But the darling of modern soul and r&b is back today with the fresh and fun new cut "28 Thousand Days." The new number is a lighthearted contemplation of how, where and with whom to spend the track title's allotment, a breakneck, feel-good hip-hop tune disguised as a poppy hybrid, utilizing Fab Four-ish melodics and a driving break that should capture the ears of the radio-ready and true-schoolers alike. And truth be told, if music's watershed year needs anything to ramp up what has already been a massive year of releases, it's a Keys offering or twelve.
