It's April 27th. Welcome to Entertainment and Celebrity News today, powered by AI and packed with headlines. Alicia Keys has spent over two decades in the music game, and she says it's still a straight up boys club, just like day one. She's calling out the old boy network, where execs and lawyers grab their cuts, but don't lift a finger to help women stick around long-term. She's fighting back through she is the music, the non-profit she co-founded that hooks up women with songwriting camps, mentors, and real training. Back in February, they threw their second women sharing the spotlight event, where she shouted out Megan Moroni and her all-female squad. Keys has topped a billboard hot 104 times and the 205 times, but her last drop, Keys, only hit number 41 and 2, 1021. Fans felt that, and as got folks talking about how the industry undervalues vets like her. Now she's deep in the studio on a fresh album, saying the tracks are almost ready and pack with that meaningful songwriting craft that's kept her.

Relevant. Expect big things from Alicia. Her push for change in music could shift the whole scene as her new music drops.
