Alicia Keys, as a mother, is navigating the challenges of balancing her roles at home.

In a captivating cover story for Allure magazine, the singer candidly discussed her experience raising her two children with husband Swizz Beatz.

Describing her sons, Egypt and Genesis, Keys remarked, “I have two Capricorns, my sons, and both of them are the most emotional people I’ve ever met.”

In the featured photoshoot, Alicia flaunted her toned midriff, wearing a vibrant rainbow-colored Versace shirt left unbuttoned over a yellow brаlette and black skirt. Completing the look were eye-catching bright orange Versace strappy heels, showcasing her perfectly pedicured toes, and Tiffany & Co. earrings, with her curly locks styled into an elegant updo.

Discussing her daily routine in the April cover story, Keys revealed her early morning rituals, aiming to wake up at 5:30 AM to indulge in meditation followed by a workout. She then faces the challenge of rousing her children for school, a process she humorously describes as taking “a hundred years.”

In addition to her parenting insights, the feature showcased Alicia’s natural beauty through close-up shots emphasizing her striking facial features and luscious curls. While adorned in a Balenciaga top and sparkling Tiffany & Co. jewelry, Keys also promoted her beauty line, Keys Soulcare, aligning her approach with the ethos of self-care rather than product-focused beauty.

Echoing her philosophy on self-care, Keys emphasized the importance of nurturing one’s soul over superficial concerns, stating, “Make sure your oxygen is good — that is the theme of this year for me.” She emphasized that once the soul is tended to, one can radiate positivity and fulfillment.

Reflecting on her journey to prioritizing self-care, Alicia credited her sons for reshaping her perspective, considering the experience of caring for them both humbling and empowering. Her marriage to music producer Swizz Beatz in 2010 preceded the arrival of Egypt, with Genesis joining the family in December 2014.
