Biography
Alicia Keys (real name Alicia Augello Cook) was born on January, 25 in 1980 in the New York City block of Harlem. Her mother, an actress of Irish-Italian descent, and Jamaican father divorced when Alicia was a small girl. She was grown up by mother in the other part of Manhattan, called Hell's Kitchen. Alicia's musical gift became obvious when she was about five, at seven she started playing the piano, opening for herself such classical composers as Mozart, Beethoven and Chopin, who became her favorite. At 16 she already graduated from the prestigious musical facility of the Professional Performing Arts School and immediately entered the Columbian University at scholarship. But the girl gave up the University to devote herself entirely to music. By 2001 she was already featured on several soundtracks, including the 1997's blockbuster Men In Black and the comedy Dr. Dolittle 2.
