Like Erykah Badu and other retro-soul artists that have followed her, Alicia Keys is trying to redefine modern R&B by injecting it with jazz and blues. In Songs in A Minor, Keys accomplishes her goal with poise and skill. The highlight of the album is "Fallin'," the debut single that features a haunting piano and strings arrangement reminiscent of James Brown's classic "It's a Man's Man's Man's World." Keys' piano work on "Butterflies" and "Goodbye" is equally impressive, as is her flare for up-tempo numbers such as "Jane Doe." [The Australian edition features a bonus disc with seven remixes, six acoustic numbers and a duet with Eve.] Jon Azpiri, All Music Guide
