Published by jdwayne on Wednesday, January 25, 2012 at 11:13 am.

It’s been just over a decade since Alicia Keys released her multi-platinum debut album, Songs In A Minor, and her popularity and influence has yet to dissipate. In the years since that project climbed the charts, and her first single “Fallin’,” dominated radio waves; the New York native has managed to release three more platinum albums, sell over sold 35 million albums—making her one of the biggest selling female artists of all time—and win a jaw-dropping 14 Grammy Awards.

Today, January 25, marks her birthday, and in celebration Centric’s The Hot 10 has compiled a playlist of some our most beloved hits from the star. Happy Birthday Alicia!
