Check out the new single “Girl on Fire” from Alicia Keys. The title track from her upcoming 5th studio release features rapper Nicki Minaj. Not sure how I feel about this song, a lot of Alicia’s songs sound the same to me. What do you think of the track?











I don’t like it..but good luck to her new project.
Co-Signing to that… This is UNACCEPTaBLE Licia!!!
I like the song as a demo for someone else. I think Alicia has always been very limited very vocally (she can only carry a tune) but if a better singer sang the song it would be hotter.
i like Nicki’s verses….LOL@”GET THE GOLD LIKE GABBY” AND “X IN THE BOX CAUSE AIN’T NOBODY CHECKING ME”! but the rest of the song ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
I like it….
Cute, Gabby in the video.
yeah the piano chords tend to be the same.. Alicia has a definite sound

Don’t like it. The beat is recycled from her last cd and the lyrics aren’t really saying much.
I loved it. the song is hot!!
Attention everybody this is my new single from my upcoming mixtape “Heat Wave” I would appreciate if you took a second out of your day and had a listen. Comment and share if you like thankyouhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AUI8vcGjVI
That picture of Alicia Keys looks like she’s subliminally saying that she’s ready to come out of the closet as a le$bian and end that charade relationship with Swizz Beatz. The photograph is emitting a lot of masculine energy (which is expected to a degree when a black female is involved, but this is excessive). It would not surprise me if they took her face and super-imposed it over the body of a male.
u r definitely reaching. this is a very fashion forward picture for her. you are entitled to your opinion .. as I am entitled to mine
I hope she does come out. I’d like her again. She’s sexy as a butch. Something I’m sure you’ve never been….sexy.
Lol, you do have a right to your opinion and I also have the right to not give a d@mn what you think. H0m0 chic is always linked to new wave “fashion”. That is how that lifestyle is systematically grafted into mainstream society. It is a trojan horse mechanism. The picture looks like one of those Calvin Klein or Polo ads of a caucasian male model in a magazine and they just photo-shopped Alicia “Keys”s face on top of the original print. That’s not even mentioning the ridiculously blatant “girl on fire: inferno” title lol.
@ GNAT
She’s “sexy as a butch”, but not in any other image lmao? Does her face get better looking to you when she acts manly??? You h0m0sexuals are so confused. It’s almost as funny as it is pathetic….
LMAO!! JUDAH U HAVE SOMETHING NEGATIVE TO SAY ABOUT EVERYTHING BLACK… ARE U caucasian? BECAUSE IT’S PURE ignorance TO SAY “The photograph is emitting a lot of masculine energy (which is expected to a degree when a black female is involved, but this is excessive)”…. LMAO!! REALLY??
Alicia Keys needs to go back to basics, that’s all I have to say about the record.
I really like this cover for the single, it’s different. A totally different Alicia. I am on the fence with this one.
Booo dont like it. It sounds like “No one the remix” lol!! sounds like its gettin close to that time to throw in the towel.
Cosign with that. Alicia Keys has some favorable tracks in music bio, but all I hear is a bunch of yelling, no tone no balance, no skill it worked for tracks like Falling.
I hated NO ONE – she yelled through the entire track and people called it singing
Whispering and talking and yelling on tracks will only get you so far maybe a little farther when you are Alicia, but this song is whack and trust when that album drops it will be a bunch of songs with that high pitched yelling not singing
Sorry for any typos – mobile
Love it!
Me Too!
Love it! I am motivated! And she looks great in the picture… digging that look Alicia!
WFT? Im a HUGE AK fan! But what is this all about.. seriously?
I hear “Empire State of Mind” in the chorus. The vocal arrangement just sounds too familiar. I’m still a fan though.
I like it, I don’t think Nicki’s rap was necessary, and I do agree that all the chords and vocals sound like her other works. I’m sure it will do good.
Nicki Minaj confessed a lot in both versus. Nicki in the first verse saying that “her,” is attempting to get in bed with her, gun with her and even talk her to the edge to jump with her? Who is “her?” We clearly know that the devil can take more than one shape, sex etc. Alicia Keys verse bridges the fact that this woman is crossing over leaving her ‘sol’ behind. Sol in reference to the sun. The video might have some serious sun-worship in it – and fire obvsly. Alicia Key’s mentioned that she’s a lonely girl in a lonely world that has fire in her eyes. Nicki Minaj immediately comes in mentioning GOD. “If you hear god, make the fire disappear god!” – It’s almost as if she mocked him but then says, “Do you fear god?” Nicki Minaj fears god but its hard to say if she believe she’s a god status yet. I do know Alicia Keys is and has become a larger than life entity in her own right.
- Also, the buzz cut. Alicia Key’s cut off her luscious locks to have a buzz cut and the cover kind of reminds of something Grace Jones would’ve done. Alicia Keys is playing with androgynous appeal. It wouldn’t shock me if in one shoot she has on a suit black, white or red and plays with masculine energy. Because, that’s exactly what she’s going to do with this project. Alicia Keys in a way covered all of her bases. She got married, had a baby and now she’s playing with her public experimentation. The conversations about her sexuality have always been called in question. But, now that she’s deemed a home wrecker, married, and with child people won’t think much about the buzz cut or the possible agenda she’s packaging.
Brotha look at how thick her neck and traps are in this photo. I honestly do not believe that is her body. I believe they super-imposed her face over a photo of a white male model. They do it in entertainment all the time to convey a subliminal message. Nicki Minaj recently got busted for a photo in which her face was super-imposed over a previous photo of Beyonce.
Not crazy about it. Too bad you wasted your money doing this song with Nicki M. I think she’s kind of played out and your better than this Alicia.
Nice song I like Nicki but she really didn’t have to be on this song Alicia sounds good by herself
The fact that she had to enlist Nicki Minaj (for the buzz-single, or maybe even, official single), shows me she’s not progressing as an artist. She’s carried her on for years, and now she recruit’s Nicki Minaj for a single? Pathetic, in my opinion.
I like it all
This song is fire! If you’re not feeling it…thats cool too. I’m not sure what you’re looking for and I’m sure that I’m tired of people wanting the same old shit. An artist is just that. An artist….so in order to be a artist…allow them to change it up, make new sounds, give new looks, have features on their records…all that shit. The fresh look and sound Alicia is rocking makes perfect sense to me. It shows growth. An a female like alicia and her mixed race…her hair will be back at length if she wanted it to be before the album drops. Get it!
Yup, it will be back at length — store bought and sewn in like the rest of these R&B chicks. Wake up call, not all mixed girls have long hair and AK’s was shoulder length at most anyway as she wore weaves like the rest of the R&B chicks.
OMG! How is the freaking song; no one ask for commentary on her lifestyle. LOL. Anyway; the song is boring that is all.
LOVE THIS!!!!
I was already disapointed with the featuring, first because Alicia Keys doeesn’t a featuring, second, because of who she picked. Nicki Minaj helped ruining the song. The beat is too much like “new day” : loud, monotonous, it sounds like Swizz Beats signature.
On another note, I absolutely love the single cover.
Ok so i’m a huge ak fan and i will admit i had to play back the song several times b4 i could get a feel for the song now i can’t stop singing it lol. In my opinion i think the song will be a hit and is just a small piece of what is yet to come from #girlonfire
I’M NOT BUYING THIS STANKIN HOME WRECKER MUSIC!
but will you by Swizz’s stuff???? It takes two to tango and trust I am not an advocate for cheating but where you there though???? Stop judging, I am quite sure you have been less than perfect since you are human…right?
More yelling from A. Keys but whatever.
I HATE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!HATE IT!!!!!!!!!
I agree!! That chorus is painful and makes your ears bleed. It actually sounds like she was on fire when she was recording it, or should I say screaming it!! Terrible!!
I love this song. It is finding your inner strength and fly to achieve your dreams.
One thing I admire about Alicia is that she is always growing as an artist.
