Few names are as well-known in the music industry as Alicia Keys.
Alicia Keys has made a name for herself in the music business and in the eyes of her fans with a career filled with Grammy Awards, singles that have reached the top of the charts, and a steadfast dedication to charity.
Her music has impacted millions of people worldwide with anything from rousing anthems that advocate for social change to emotional ballads that appeal to a deeper level of feeling. Her success, however, goes well beyond the music industry.
Alicia Keys has been recognized for her humanitarian efforts and dedication to social causes with multiple humanitarian awards and recognitions, including the BET Humanitarian Award and the Amnesty International Ambassador of Conscience Award. She is a devoted philanthropist and a strong advocate for environmental sustainability and educational initiatives.
A successful skincare firm (Keys Soulcare, which encourages holistic wellbeing and self-care) and a short stint as a coach on The Voice are among her other noteworthy accomplishments. Her biography, “More Myself: A Journey,” debuted in 2020 and is a New York Times bestseller.
Egypt Daoud and Genesis Ali Dean are the two children she and record producer/rapper Swizz Beatz (real name Kasseem Daoud Dean) brought into their household in 2010.
Now a true power couple, Alicia Keys and her rapper husband wanted a house to match their celebrity status.And they did, buying a unique home that combines Alicia Keys’ creative sensibilities with the grandeur one would expect from a world-famous musician in the charming seaside community of La Jolla, close to San Diego.
Living at La Jolla, San Diego’s renowned Razor House are Keys and Swizz Beats.
A stunning cliffside property in San Diego’s affluent La Jolla area cost $20.8 million in 2019, when Grammy Award-winning singer Alicia Keys and her husband Swizz Beatz purchased it.
The architecturally unique house gained significant attention after being extensively highlighted on Bravo’s Million Dollar Listings LA program. This renewed interest in the already well-known property had many wondering who would be the fortunate buyer.
Celebrity realtors Josh Altman and Josh Flagg had the mansion listed for an astounding $30 million at the time of its Bravo spotlight moment.
However, since its initial design in 2007 by San Diego-based architect Wallace E. Cunningham, the unique masterpiece known as The Razor House has generated a lot of conversation.
Situated on a cliff with a view of the Pacific Ocean, the massive home made of glass and concrete is rather impressive.
