#Alicia keys diary of alicia keys album cover series
Thus opening an impressive series of one of a kind reworks. The first traces we can find of him bring us back to 2003 and his seminal remix of Donnie‘s ‘Cloud 9’. And, by that, riskin’ to feel under the threat of being emprisoned. Meanwhile comin’ up with an instantly identifiable even though he’s never been into willin’ to establish a formula. The unique gift he has as a DJ is something one definitely can find in the music he’s been producing or remixing. Thus quoting luminaries like Prince, Parliament/ Funkadelic, James Brown as definitive references. With this being for much in his obsession for the groove. Enough to tickle my curiosity and try to get to know more about him.Ī native of Detroit, MI, Quentin Harris unsurprisingly first got into R&B and Hip-Hop. The floor was packed and then, behind the decks, a DJ was litteraly magnetising the crowd with the music he was playing. I think it was Slaag Records doin’ it in association with some other label. – The first time I came to cross the path of Quentin Harris was at some Underground party in Miami, FL during the Winter Music Conference. With the success story continuing back in 2016 with the release of ‘HERE’ which became her seventh R&B/Hip-Hop chart topping album. And the success to keep on the year after with the release of her second live album, ‘VH1 Storytellers’. Featuring on the latter’s ‘The Blueprint 3’ album, it won the Best Rap/Sung Collaboration in 2010.Īnother 2 years on, and ‘Girl On Fire’ get her back into the national charts, with thanks to its title track. And if it wasn’t enough that same year saw her collaborating with producer Jay Z on ‘Empire State Of Mind’. Meanwhile its follow up – ‘The Element Of Freedom’ – got her for the very first time at #1 position in the U.K. Thus earning an extra three Grammy Awards. Including the Hot 100 #1 single “No One”, it sold 5 million copies worldwide. Her third album, ‘As I Am’ saw the light in 2007. Eventually becoming the first female artist to come with an ‘MTV Unplugged’ album debuting at number one. She would soon after deliver a live set (‘Unplugged). A package which featured other goodies such as ‘Feelin Me Feelin You’, ‘You Don’t Know My Name’ and ‘Troubles’. Then Quentin Harris would most likely give it an awesome rework too. Taken from her second album – ‘The Diary Of Alicia Keys’, ‘The Diary’ which featured Tony! Toni! Toné gave her first and so far only-chart-topper on the Hot Dance Club Play in late 2004, as remixed by Hani.

Getting her to earn 5 Grammy Awards the year after… An album which sold over 12 millions copies worldwide. With Keys debut-album, ‘Songs In A Minor’ providing her with her first #1 in the Billboard Hot 100 by the likes of ‘Fallin” back in 2001. Unsurprisingly, the success from this association happened to be instantaneous. She would get to fame along with Clive Davis who signed her on his newly formed J Records label. Eventually signing a record deal with Columbia Records which she broke because of unceasing changes in the label at the time. – Born in Manhattan, NYC, Alicia Keys heavily studied music from an early age. It’s contagious!” The lady states on her Twitter page, most likely sayin’ it all…

“Passionate about my work, in love with my family and dedicated to spreading light. From Alix Alvarez‘s to DJ Spen & Karizma. The whole comin’ from an unofficial EP featuring extra remixes equally worth the listen. All in all enhancing the emotion of the singer’s sultry vocal performance. In other words, some lush keys over a bouncing syncopated beat. This while adding the basic elements that contributed establishing his own signature along with time. Typical order times are located within the product description.Detroit native Quentin Harris givin’ a nice classy House feel to Alicia Keys‘ R&B/Soul classic ‘The Diary’ featuring Tony! Toni!
