Mary J. Blige, Jill Scott and Alicia Keys all get their own Essence Magazine cover for the month of June.  The magazine is featuring the 3 ladies in their annual “Black Music Month” June issue and all three are doin the dayum thang!  You can check out a sneak peak of the interviews over at Essence.com.

If you [like me] go to bed before 10 on weekdays then this is for you! Check out Alicia Keys’ performance on David Letterman the other day. She was workin it! I wish I could comment more on the interview, but somethings wrong with my dayum speakers so I can’t hear ish and I do not have the patience to watch 7 minutes of video with no sound! Y’all let me know what she said…k?

Alicia Keys appeared on the TODAY show yesterday and performed during their Summer concert series in New York.  Ms. Keys kicked off her performance with “Teenaged Love Affair” and ended with “No One.”  You can check out both performances after the cut…

Rumor has it that Alicia Keys is planning to marry her music producer boyfriend Kerry ‘Krucial’ Brothers in New York on the 4th of July.  Getting married on independance day…isn’t that an oxymoron?

Bosses at the 32-bedroom French-style chateau have confirmed a wedding will take place that weekend, but have refused to reveal the identity of the bride and groom.

Keys and Brothers have never spoken openly about their relationship. They have been songwriting partners for years, co-owning the KrucialKeys production company and New York’s Oven Recording Studios. (Source)
