Baller Alert Exclusive - Alicia Keys Parting Ways From Her Manager


What in the world? Seems like Alicia Keys and her manager Jeff Robinson has parted ways after 15 years. They split was described as "an amicable split"

I'm trying to find out what happened. Stay tuned!

Updated 9:45pm - Official statement:



Jeff Robinson, CEO of MBK Entertainment Inc., and 12 time Grammy Award winner Alicia Keys have decided to change the structure of their business relationship. Robinson and Keys will continue to collaborate and produce future albums together through MBK/J Records while Alicia will now oversee all aspects of her own personal career.
MBK Entertainment Inc. has been the management firm for Alicia Keys since she was a teenager-guiding every facet of her career, including the international success of her Grammy Award winning, multi-platinum albums, films and branding opportunities. Keys and Robinson have been partners for over a decade and would like opportunities to pursue other endeavors. Their decision is mutually agreed upon and amicable.

This decision will allow Alicia more control over all aspects of her career from singing and songwriting, to leading many business ventures and social causes. Keys' company, AK Worldwide, will now have responsibility and oversight for Alicia's touring, endorsements, sponsorships, licensing, new business development, television and film ventures.

MBK, a multifaceted entertainment company with a film, television, publishing and independent marketing divisions, will have the opportunity to focus on developing the careers of new, young talented artists like Elle Varner and Gabi Wilson. The company will also delve deeper into the gospel music format with their newly formed Glory to Glory Records.
