Alicia Keys has contributed to the rebirth of R&B since she has hit the scene, but now it looks like she wants to make her mark on the rock genre.
The concept came about when Keys did a duet with Keith Urban at the Live Earth concert in 2007, and from there she set her mind on another collaboration with other rockers, such as Queens of the Stone Age, Linkin Park, Coldplay and The White Stripes.
The White Stripes is at the top of Alicia Keys list of rock collabos.
Stating her admiration over the band, she said “They’re very raw very cut and dry. It’s like drums and guitar. It’s that simple, and I love that.”
She has been talks with The White Stripes and believes that the collaboration could really happen.
“We’ve had some conversations. When the time works out, and it definitely will, it will happen, she said.”
