Official cover art for Alicia Keys’ ‘The Element of Freedom’

Alicia Keys’ upcoming fourth studio album “The Element of Freedom” finally gets an official cover art. The picture has a close-up look at the 2010 Favorite R&B Artist nominee of People’s Choice Awards wearing a halter-neck top.

Led by single “Doesn’t Mean Anyhting”, “The Element of Freedom” is going to be released in United States on December 15. The album will include “Empire State of Mind Part 2″ which has her re-uniting with Jay-Z on the hook. It is also rumored that Beyonce Knowles will lend her vocal to the album.

Recently, Alicia filmed a music video for the second single “Try Sleeping With a Broken Heart”. In it, she will be narrated as a woman with healing ability which prevents her to touch anyone because she will involuntarily absorb the physical strength of the person she touches.

Alicia Keys is scheduled to take the stage of NOKIA Theatre on November 22 for a live performance with Jay-Z at the 37th Annual American Music Awards.
