“Lost files @meekmill produced by @aliciakeys ! Can’t lie AK produce like any heavy producer 😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨 Female @drdre to be exact !!!!!!” Swizz captioned the post. “Let’s get back to the pain and passion ….. should this song drop? The finished version is crazy.”

Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys’s interests have branched out beyond music in recent years.

Last November, Alicia Keys filed a trademark to launch a new tea brand, “Alicia Teas,” which was inspired by a gift from her husband.
According to TMZ, the “No One” singer’s Alicia Worldwide company has filed a trademark for Alicia Teas to launch her tea line in the near future looking to shake up the beverage industry.
Swizz may have been the one to put the battery in Keys’ back to go forward with the line, as he gifted his wife her own brand of tea bags in 2020 for her birthday and manifested that the brand would one day be sold in Starbucks locations across the globe.
“Happy birthday we got endless amount of teas and everybody in Starbucks around the world you’re gonna see Alicia Teas,” Swizz said at the time. “Blessings, happy birthday, baby. Love you!”

The pair also recently released a massive coffee table book titled Giants: Art from the Dean Collection of Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys on the Phaidon Books imprint in June of this year.
The book also features an interview with the longtime married couple by Kimberli Gant, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Brooklyn Museum. It served as an accompaniment to an exhibition featuring Swizz and Alicia’s extensive artwork collection at the museum, which ran from February 10 to July 7.
“Our strategy is collecting from the heart,” the couple said in a statement. “You know, a lot of people call us Black collectors. We’re art collectors, and we happen to be Black. We collect artists from all over the world. The reason why we double down on artists of color is because our own community wasn’t collecting these giants.”
