Swizz Beats covers Paper Magazine this month, While he’s reluctant to talk too much about his wife Alicia Keys. He does admit that her superstar status has its perks: “Being married to a public figure made people take a second look at me, the second look isn’t from his fans, but hers. I know who my fans are and I know who her fans are that come up to me,” Swizz says with a laugh. “I’m cool
about it, I’m happy to have some of her fans coming to say what’s up.”
He is about to drop his third album titled "Haute Living" and hopes people hear his growth as a musician.
On the album, Swizz has updated his trademark sound. Where there was only industrial sounding drums and synthesizers, there are also now splashes of live instrumentation and melodies. “I still believe less is more, that’s still my concept, but you have to evolve,” he says.
