Alicia Keys, the renowned singer-songwriter, has achieved a significant milestone in her career by landing her first hit on Billboard's Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart with the track 'Finally,' a collaboration with Swedish House Mafia. The song has debuted at an impressive No. 26 on the chart, marking a new achievement for Keys in the realm of dance and electronic music.
While Keys may be a newcomer to the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart, Swedish House Mafia has already enjoyed considerable success on the ranking, with 16 hits to their name, including four top 10 hits. 'Finally' has garnered the second-highest debut on the chart this week, trailing behind a remixed version of Sage the Gemini's 'Gas Pedal.'
The collaboration between Keys and Swedish House Mafia on 'Finally' is actually a cover of a track originally released by house group Kings of Tomorrow in 2001. Despite being a cover, the song has resonated with audiences and made its mark on the charts, showcasing the enduring appeal of the music.
Keys' recent foray into the world of Broadway with her musical 'Hell’s Kitchen' garnered critical acclaim and multiple Tony Award nominations. Although the show did not secure a win for Keys personally, it further showcased her versatility as an artist. Following the conclusion of the Tony Awards, Keys has returned to creating music, with 'Finally' being a standout collaboration that has propelled her onto the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart.
As Keys continues to explore new musical horizons and collaborate with diverse artists, her presence in the dance and electronic music scene is sure to captivate audiences and further solidify her status as a multifaceted artist.
