Publisher's Summary
Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award 2020
This audiobook is read by Alicia Keys, with special guest appearances by family and friends, including Oprah Winfrey, Jay-Z and Michelle Obama.
As one of the most celebrated musicians of our time, Alicia Keys has enraptured the nation with her heartfelt lyrics, extraordinary vocal range and soul-stirring piano compositions. Yet away from the spotlight, Alicia has grappled with private heartache over the challenging and complex relationship with her father, the people-pleasing nature that characterised her early career, the loss of privacy surrounding her romantic relationships and the oppressive expectations of female perfection.
Since her rise to fame, Alicia’s public persona has belied a deep personal truth: she has spent years not fully recognising or honouring her own worth. After withholding parts of herself for so long, she is at last exploring the questions that live at the heart of her story: Who am I, really? And once I discover that truth, how can I become brave enough to embrace it?
More Myself is part autobiography, part narrative documentary. Alicia’s journey is revealed not only through her own candid recounting, but also through vivid recollections from those who have walked alongside her. The result is a 360-degree perspective on Alicia’s path: from her girlhood in Hell’s Kitchen and Harlem, to the process of self-discovery she’s still navigating.
In More Myself, Alicia shares her quest for truth: about herself, her past and her shift from sacrificing her spirit to celebrating her worth. With the raw honesty that epitomises Alicia’s artistry, More Myself is at once a riveting account and a clarion call to listeners: to define themselves in a world that rarely encourages a true and unique identity.

Beautiful!
The references from American music industry did not ring a bell as I am culturally distant from it, but there is something mysterious and same time soothing about Alicia's voice that never let me loose grip on her story. Love to see her living her full potential. The state I am inching towards, and hence this book is very special.

Great Surprise
Aside from a few major hits, I didn't know who Alicia Keys really was. I wanted to start listening to audiobooks and read a few good about this one, so I gave it a try. Gorgeous surprise. Alicia has a very strong and powerful life and the audio is superbly produced. One of the best things in life is to meet new and interesting people. Listening to Alicia I did meet a great woman and became a fan.

Magic
Autobiography by Alicia Keys spoken in her own voice and includes intros by other people who inspired her such as Oprah Winfrey, Michelle Obama, Bono, her mother, Swizz Beats her husband and more. Told in such perfect poetry and power! This book will inspire you to walk to in own path and live your own destiny, to find your own voice, to stop playing small and let your light shine, to self-discovery, to deeper purpose, spirituality, it talks of race and the experience of black people and being bi-racial, feminism, being androgynous, identity and more. It feels like Alicia is sitting right there with you. Highly recommend this! Powerful!!

Excessive self promotion
Undoubtedly Alicia Keys is a remarkably talented artist who works hard. But I found the way she emphasises how hard she has worked and how incredibly amazing everything she is involved in a little annoying after a while. She makes an interesting argument against modesty towards the end of the book, but it isnt an argument that resonates with me personally. Ultimately she now has a huge team behind everything she does and some of those people could easily be working harder than her but not seeing anywhere near her wealth and luxury. Her description of numerous over the top birthday parties and gifts also clashes with her talk about charities etc.

Alicia more powerful, More herself.
Some of the best hours I have spent were listening these words of an evolving woman .She honestly has passed the baton to us challenging us as we go on the journey through her life .It is not just her music that important to us it is as women and human beings that is important to us .Her outer and inner world view is important to us all. This is a unique opportunity to look within and express who we really are and it comes through so loud and so clear. Be all sides of yourself. It's alright.i am more motivated than ever because of this book to be all that I am . Thank you Alicia. Looking forward to your next Chapters and your next books . Love and peace.

This book resonates with anyone who feels they have lost their identity and are made to feel like they need to conform to fit in. I loved the description of every moment - it makes you feel present in the moment.

Perfect voice to listen to
Loved the way Alicia tells her story, Her voice is perfect for audible. Also liked the surprise features. It was inspirational but some parts felt like filler and a bit surface level.

More Alicia, yes please!
Alicia’s music has always moved me in various ways & to hear her story narrated in her own glorious spoken voice, listening to her at the centre of my head (thanks AirPods), taking walks & cleaning the house with her stories I couldn’t get enough of. I connected with her daily till the last word.
I found this book through hearing Alicia speak on Instagram with another brilliant author, Glennon Doyle. Glennon’s book, Untamed, and Alicia’s book are two relevant masterpieces that have kept me on a glorious path of uncovering my stuff and opening my heart, during CoVid-19.
This book plus Untamed, for me, are catalysts, shining examples of what’s possible with focus, hard work & a steely perseverance for being your true self. Perfect companions for quality time spent in solitude, to step into a different future, reborn.
