Egypt Daoud – African/American | Alicia Keys’ Son

Alicia Keys grew up in Hell’s Kitchen, New York. She is a stunning worldwide-famous musician, and one of her secrets to her beauty is her multiracial ancestry. Her mother is a white Irish-Sicilian woman, and her father is an African American. According to Alicia, she spent her formative years navigating a tough neighborhood but was fortunate enough to be among people of different racial ancestry. Much like many mixed-race people in the US, Alicia got exposed to a plethora of cultures. She grew up around Spanish, Italian, and Indian people who helped her feel less out of place regarding her mixed racial background.

Alicia, as we know, would out-grow the tough neighborhoods of New York and go on her prolific music career. Along her journey towards a lucrative degree of success, she would meet her ex-husband, Swizz Beatz, a music producer. Together, they parent their first-born Egypt Daoud and his younger brother, Genesis Ali.
