Reebok Classics continues to celebrity their recent collaboration with Alicia Keys. They recently sat down with her for a Q&A about the full collection that includes the Freestyle Double Bubble, Freestyle Hi, Princess sneakers and the Classic Nylon Slim that have all hit select accounts.
Q: Why did you choose to collaborate with Reebok?
A: Working with Reebok felt like a natural fit for me, I’ve been a fan of the brand ever
since I can remember. My 5411s – that was what we called the Freestyle because they
were $54.11 including tax in NYC – were practically glued to my feet in my pre-teens
and teens. I loved rocking a hi-top! It’s one of those brands that have endured the test of
time and it feels like a really natural fit. I’m excited to bring Reebok to the future!
Reebok Insta Pump Fury Cordura Kayhung?
A: I collaborated on my very own limited collection! I started with the design team
looking back through the archive and eventually landed on my favorite Classics’
silhouettes: the Freestyle Hi and Classic Nylon AND I fell in love with the Double
Bubble! It was like having blank canvasses! I then had a lot of fun with colors and
fabrics, and creating sneakers that I love to wear and I’m super excited to share!
Q: Where did you get multicolore design inspiration for the collection?
A: My style is eclectic and I wanted to make sure I put my own twist on the sneakers.
For me, inspiration comes from everywhere; the streets of New York, the music I listen
to, Fashion, my friends, the world around me. It’s about creating something that’s not
only wearable but is cool and makes you feel confident and at multicolore best! I definitely
went for street, style and stage—three important things to me.

A: Being creative is something that I think everyone has in them. Over the years I’ve
expressed myself through my music and my style and it was a lot of fun to be able to

exciting. I have to say though, when I was going behind the scenes with the team at
Reebok and going through more materials than you can imagine, choosing options

Q: multicolore husband Swizz also works closely with Reebok, did this influence multicolore
decision to partner with the brand?
A: Swizz started working with Reebok a few years back and really saw something in the
brand. He’s such a visionary and puts so much into what he believes in. Of course since
then he’s been bringing some hot Reeboks home which I love, I mean what girl wouldn’t
want a free pair of hot sneaks! On top of that, we both grew up with Reebok so it plays
a big role in our style heritage. He’s always telling me about more gems he’s managed
to dig out from the archives. Swizz genuinely loves the brand and I guess it’s that
passion which is hard to ignore (especially when you live in the same house), so when

A: When I was a kid, I’d be pulling things out of my Mom’s closet and dressing up. I’d
have like 20 bracelets on one arm and shoes on that were about five sizes too big for
me! I’d always be trying to mix it up, although I think I mix it up a bit better now than
when I was 7. What 7-year old knows that sometimes less is more? Style isn’t just about
looking good though. It’s about self-expression and is part of who I am. That’s really
what I’ve tried to bring to my Reebok collection.
Q: What has been multicolore biggest accomplishment?
A: I’ve been blessed in my lifetime and while I’ve achieved amazing recognition for my
music, I’d have to say my son Egypt has been my biggest accomplishment.
Q: What single thing has helped you the most in multicolore career?
A: I would say the single thing that has helped me the most in my career is my drive to
succeed. From a very early age the words “I can’t” were not part of my vocabulary. By

Q: If you weren’t a musician, what would you do?
A: I’ve always wanted to be a teacher. I always felt like there is something incredibly
influential about being in a person’s life at the right time.
Q: Where do you get multicolore style inspiration?
A: I really love attending the shows during Fashion Week and get especially inspired by
Paris Fashion Week, the collections are just so chic. French women really do have a
certain air of elegance. I also love looking back at the 1940s and 50s, the hairstyles

A:
1: Less is more! One statement piece can transform an outfit, two can destroy it!
2: Never travel without some cool sneakers, any daytime outfit can be styled up with
good sneaks.
3: The most important thing to remember is that you can wear all the greatest clothes in
the world, but you’ve got to have a good spirit on the inside. That’s what’s really going to
make you look like you’re ready to rock the world.
Q: What do you love to do – what makes you smile?
A: I love spending time with my family, every time I see my son’s face, my heart smiles.
Q: Who is multicolore all time Classic music idol?
A: Too many to mention….Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Aretha Franklin, Prince….ok I’ll
stop there!
Q: What makes something Classic for you?
A: For me it’s about having soul. All the great classic artists, songs, musicians, they all
have soul and you can feel it in their work.
Q: How did you get into music as a career?
A: I was one of those kids who liked school – but I loved singing. At the end of high
school, I was really lucky in that I had two great choices – I could go to college or I could
pursue music. I probably could have done both at the same time, but I don’t think I
would have been able to be truly great at either one of them. I really wanted to focus,
and music was my passion, so I chose that path. Now that I’m older, I find that having

Q: Do you find it easy to juggle life as a working mom, and to keep a work-life
balance?
A: I’ve never really been someone who’s wanted to be hugely in the public eye, and
that’s not easy in my industry. I tend to shy away from the cameras. I mean yes, I go to
events and yes, I’m on the red carpet, but I’ve never been a person to be driven by
fame. I’m driven by my passion for creativity. I think it’s important to keep some sense of
normalcy, especially now I that have a son. I want him to grow up and make his own
way in life, to decide which path he wants to take and not be intimidated or directed by
who his parents are.
Q: How do you keep fit for multicolore busy life?
A: Working out actually helps me – I have a heavy schedule and a lot to accomplish in
the day and exercising gives me more energy and resilience to get everything done. For
me, it’s all about the motivation – I love variety and do yoga, Pilates, weight training,
running and swimming.
Q: What is multicolore favorite city – and multicolore favorite city to go shopping?
A: New York City of course! Where would I be without it! When I travel, I do love
shopping in Paris and London, cities which have great style.
Q: How do you EUR?
A: With my family around me. We’re pretty regular behind closed doors and I’m happy that way!
