Super producer, Swizz Beats got a little aggitated when addressing rumors about Alicia Keys breaking up his marriage during an interview with MTV. "Everybody can have their fun right now talking that dumb sh*t about my divorce and all that," he said. "I'mma give them something to talk about. People get divorced every f*ckin' day. They need to worry about more serious things."
The rumors began when variouis media outlets began reporting that Swizz's love affair with R&B powerhouse Alicia Keys was the reason behind his divorce from estranged wife, R&B singer Mashonda. According to Swizz, the rumors were completely false and even the news of his divorce was late. "My divorce, it ain't nothing bad. It's just us moving on," Swizz said. "Me and Shonda are super good. It is what it is. [The press] are nine months late on the situation. It's a headache to me. We been seperated nine or 10 months already."
Pointing the finger at popular urban websites MediaTakeout.com and Hip Hop Weekly, Swizz said that the reports are just "drama." "They got another big name involved. No, I'm not doing [any] f*cking interviews. Only thing I'm commenting on is music-related. I don't comment on my personal life. Why start now? You start commenting on that sh*t, then they start twisting it out. I'm not gonna speak about nothing. They [gave Mashonda] two pages in Hip Hop Weekly. She didn't even say nothing about Alicia. They blew it up on MediaTakeout.com. They flipped that into some other sh*t."
Although he adimently denied any personal relationship with Keys, Swizz did say that the two hooked up for the remix of "Teenage Love Affair." "The Alicia Keys remix is with LL Cool J," he clarified. "I used the Slick Rick "Teenage Love' on it. Then I had your man LL do the old-school "When I'm alone in my room, sometimes I stare at the wall.'.He used that flow."
Swizz then switch gears to talk about his upcoming project with Michael Jackson. "I'm working on some new Michael Jackson sh*t," Swizz said. "I'm probably gonna be producing his tour and everything."
Swizz also has tracks on T.I.'s upcoming album and is working on Cassidy's new LP.
His new album "Life After The Party" is scheduled to hit stores on an undetermined date in October.
