Alicia Keys has resurrected "MTV Unplugged."
"I've always been a very big fan of the show and when they stopped doing it I was like, what happened to 'MTV Unplugged?' I specifically went in there and said we have to do an 'Unplugged,'" Keys told AP Radio.
Keys' appearance on the show — a 1990s favorite that featured artists performing acoustic, bare-boned sets — will be a group effort. Mos Def, Common and Damian Marley will be her guests, as well as Maroon 5's Adam Levine.
"Adam Levine and I remade the Rolling Stones' classic 'Wild Horses' and it is right up my alley, that whole style" Keys said. "It has a style of its own but still stays very true to the classic arrangement and I love it."
Keys' version of "Wild Horses" is piano-driven instead of guitar-driven, a fact that didn't keep her from almost snagging another special guest.
"Keith Richards said he wished he could be there to play guitar," she said.
Keys' "MTV Unplugged" episode airs Sept. 23 and will be released as a DVD in October.

Soldatti. Our good man. Keys isn't a rapper Soldatti. She is a R&B/Soul mix.

Yuh, she's no rapper. Falling is a classic R&B song. I like it; yes, I do! |
