Written by . Published: June 15 2013
Alicia Keys has become the first artist to land atop America's Billboard Adult R&B chart 10 times thanks to her new duet with Maxwell.
The four-time Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter has hit number one on the countdown with Fire We Make.
The hit marks the 80th week she has spent at the top of the
countdown since her first chart-topper in 2001.
Keys also holds the record as the first female R&B artist to
have three consecutive number one albums debuts on the Billboard
200 album chart.
