Alicia Keys

Girl on Fire is the fifth studio album by American recording artist Alicia Keys. The album, which was released on November 22, 2012, is Keys' first release with RCA Records following Sony Music Entertainment's decision to close J Records during a company reshuffle. Girl on Fire was conceived shortly after Keys' marriage to record producer and rapper Swizz Beatz as well as the birth of her first child, Egypt.

The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart with first-week sales of 159,000 copies, becoming her fifth number-one album in the United States. It was promoted with two singles, including the title track, which charted at 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Girl on Fire is classic Keys at her most commercial. The beautiful and sensual new single, "Fire We Make", a duet with Maxwell, is all muted horns and synth bass. The more you hear this track, the deeper you will fall in love with it.
