A quick check for all parties involved. Below, you can enjoy the most talked about single from the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man 2 soundtrack (which drops April 22nd). The actual film follows May 2nd (and I bet the video for this song will come much sooner than that).
BEHIND THE SCENES: Alicia Keys, Pharrell Williams & Kendrick Lamar – It’s On Again (PICS)
Alicia Keys, Pharrell Williams and Kendrick Lamar were recently spotted in Los Angeles shooting the music video for their new song ‘It’s On Again’, which is taken from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 soundtrack.

PREVIEW: Kendrick Lamar & Alicia Keys – It’s On Again (Prod. Pharrell)
Judging from the preview, I’m not going to agree with Kendrick’s part in this. We’ll see when the single — taken from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 soundtrack — drops on April 1st. The full-length compilation will follow two weeks later.
Sicilian Nun Singing Alicia Keys Bring A Rapper To Tears
Washington Post reports:
As if to conclusively prove that the international spin-offs of American shows are, in fact, better than the originals, a Catholic nun appeared on Italy’s version of “The Voice” in full habit this week, singing Alicia Keys’s “No One.”
Per “The Voice IT,” the nun is 25-year-old Sicilian Cristina Scuccia, a member of the Ursuline Sisters of the Holy Family in Milan. She’s also quickly becoming an Italian pop culture fixture: The audition went so well that she joined the show on the team of goateed rapper J-Ax, and a video of her performance has been viewed more than 3 million times.
This is all in good fun, obviously — and it is fun, really fun, like pre-Lenten-chocolate-binging fun. But it also touches on some broader cultural changes in Italy and the Catholic church. Italy is home to the Vatican and a large share of the world’s Catholics, but only one in five people there attends mass. Meanwhile, Pope Francis has gone to unusual lengths to bring the institution more in line with the times and project an image of a kinder, gentler, hipper church. A church where it’s apparently all good fun if nuns turn their God-given gifts to the entertainment of the reality TV-watching public.
Speaking of the pope, Sister Cristina remarks at one point in her performance, “I hope that Pope Francis will call me now.”
If he doesn’t, it’s his loss.

From MTV:
Alicia Keys and Kendrick Lamar have teamed up for the lead track from the upcoming “Spider-Man 2” soundtrack. The song, “It’s On Again,” was written by Pharrell Williams, Keys, K-Dot and film scorer Hans Zimmer.
“I’m very excited to be a part of such a powerful collaboration with Kendrick Lamar, Pharrell Williams and Hans Zimmer,” Keys said in a statement about the album, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, due out on April 22. “This is the next chapter in the ‘Spider-Man’ legacy and we really feel ‘It’s On Again’ captures the experience, the story — and most importantly — the meaning behind the film, which is that we all have the potential to be extraordinary. There’s a little bit of a super hero in all of us.”
Director Marc Webb said he was looking for the perfect song to close the film, one that would be “upbeat and exciting,” but with just a hint of foreboding. “Alicia’s song, ‘It’s On Again,’ is the perfect end note,” he said.
Webb also praised the score created by Zimmer and the Magnificent Six, which includes Pharrell, Incubus’ Mike Einzinger, ex-Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr, Junkie XL, Andrew Kawczynski and Steve Mazzaro. “Every director wants his movie to have a unique sound, but this is beyond unique,” he said of the score. “It’s completely unlike any movie score that’s come before.”
The album will also feature new music from the Neighbourhood, Pharrell, Alvin Risk and LIZ, as well as Phosphorescent’s previously released “Song for Zula.”

This song is for a film (explained below) that Alicia Keys is also executive producing.
“Better You, Better Me” by Alicia Keys is original music from the film THE INEVITABLE DEFEAT OF MISTER & PETE, a beautifully observed and tremendously moving film about salvation through friendship and the way transformation sometimes can happen just by holding on long enough.
