Alicia Keys is brand new. The 31-year-old singer just released a new song titled “Brand New Me,” lifted from her upcoming album Girl on Fire, due Nov. 27. On the piano-driven track, Keys sings about personal growth.
“It’s been awhile, I’m not who I was before/ You look surprised, your words don’t burn me anymore,” Keys sings.
Speaking on her new song, Keys tells AOL’s The Boombox:
Brand New Me’ is about the journey it takes to get to a place where you are proud to be a new you. There is nothing wrong with growing! There may be people in your life that knew you for a long time and they think of you only as the person you used to be and not the person you now are!
