In 2009, Alicia Keys and Jay-Z’s “Empire State Of Mind” scored HOV’s first No. 1, which not only had the Billboard charts in a chokehold but also snatched the crown for the highest-selling single.
Fast forward to 2022, the “Girl On Fire” singer recently sat for an interview with E! News, where she was asked if she and Jigga would do another collaboration like their iconic NYC anthem.
Alicia admitted that she and Jay have considered working on new songs together on countless occasions. However, the two immediately grow hesitant after considering how well “Empire State of Mind” did on the charts. “There’s no topping it!” she exclaimed.
Despite the hesitance, she also added that she is open to another collaboration with Jay-Z, who she also referred to as her “brother.”
