Alicia Keys
There was no way we could draw up a list like this and not talk about Alicia Keys. The “Queen of R&B” is best known for her work in R&B and pop, but she actually launched her career in a different genre. Can you believe that she was a classical pianist first? At the age of 12, she began to write music. Three years later, she signed a deal with a record label and released “Songs in A Minor” to great success.
