Sources say, it’s not a coincidence that Alicia Keys fired her longtime manager Jeff Robinson, and that fiance {hip hop} producer Swizz Beats, played a huge part in killing him off.
Robinson had been charging Keys a 25 percent commission for some time now, when Alicia was undiscovered she paid him even more; a whopping 33 percent.
So after years of people telling Keys that Robinson was ripping her off, Swizz was the one to convince her he actually was….
Wow, so not only is Alicia Keys gaining a baby and a husband, she’s gaining a baby and a smart husband/Manager/Producer all in one.
You go girl!!!!

Alicia has been with this man since jump and she has made a ton of money because of his smarts.
Alicia fired him because he was the main one saying she should have cut Swizz lose when all the drama with Mashonda exploded. He knew the damage it was doing to her rep amongst her urban fanbase who she still needs to create buzz for her music.

Dropping homeboy as a manager at this time was the perfect out: She’s done with this album, about to pop out a baby and get married. Maybe Alicia knew all along that she was getting stiffed, but couldn’t do anything about it. Swizz probably found a loophole for her in the contract, or maybe gave her the courage juice to drop his ass.

She is talented but dysfunctional: first with a long-time boyfriend, many years her senior, since she was “a minor” all the while with a manager taking advantage of her…and now onto a married man and father who has recently divorced for her. The hit single “Unthinkable” has a lot of truth to it. Listen to the lyrics. And they did the “Unthinkable!” Each were in long-term committed relationships but did the unthinkable. It is just a matter of time when karma bite they ass back.

I’m not concerned with Alicia and Swizz’s personal life because to be honest I really could care less. What I do care about is her music and her having Swizz Beatz producing anything for her is a bad idea. Their sounds are extremely different. She has a refined sound and Swizz is pots and pans and he likes to recycle his beats too damn much. If they are going to be together then cool let them experience the good, bad, and the ugly just like every other couple do, but when it comes to her career she needs to take off those rose colored glasses and understand that she has the potential of being a has been at this point, something I never thought could ever happen to her. Don’t mix business with pleasure Alicia or you will get burned.
