Alicia Keys Celebrates Her Career [Video]

In honor of the 10th anniversary of her Grammy-winning debut album, 'Songs in A Minor,' Keys brought down the house in an exclusive acoustic concert for AOL Music, called 'Piano & I.'

Performing alone, she sang her own music and a medley of covers included "big inspiration" Mary J. Blige's 'Real Love' and Marvin Gaye's 1972 hit 'Trouble Man'.

Keys performed on a candlelit stage at the Beacon Theatre in New York City, saying

"The city really wrote a lot of that first album."

As Keys recounted endless hours spent riding the NYC subway, her show became a heartfelt tribute to her hometown.
