By the time this long-awaited album saw its
release date, most fans had probably read at least a couple of
interviews with Alicia Keys in which she explained that first single,
"No One"--a firestorm of a song clearly born of a sore heart and
steeped in serious soul-searching, was about her decision to retreat
from the obligations of stardom when she found out a loved one was in
need of her care. The anecdote sticks not just because it explained the
song so well--you can actually hear the pain, commitment, and
determination in her sultry voice--but because it gets at what makes
the woman behind the music so appealing. There's only one way R&B
artists grow to become legends, and it's by drenching the words they
sing with feeling (think Gladys Knight, Roberta Flack). The skeptical
listener might have had her doubts before As I Am,
but there's no mistaking it now: Alicia Keys is well on her way to
sharing a category with them. This record radiates not just old-soul
maturity, the kind Alicia fans say makes her modern rarity, but real
soul. Vintage-leaning hooks and horns grab hold on "Where Do We Go from
Here" and an assortment of other songs, but Keys can also get by just
fine without them, as she proves on more pop-flavored numbers like
"Lesson Learned," with John Mayer, and "Superwoman." The genres may be
smearing, she seems to say, but bring them on: she won't shrink back.
Her commitment is not to a single style but to what's stirring her
soul. Because of it, she's moving R&B, or something like it, from
the hips back to the heart. --Tammy La Gorce
