Alicia Keys releases her single Back to Life for the Disney film starring starring Lupita Nyong’o and David Oyelowo. It’s got the same dance vibe coupled with incredible vocals as her last single Common.
When you are so inspired by a movie that you write a song about it 😃💜 #QueenOfKatwe #BackToLife pic.twitter.com/TLwEeWBR19

The film Queen of Katwe is about Phiona Mutesi – the Ugandan chess prodigy. In the song which accompanies the film, Alicia sings: ‘I want to be somebody. And I want to go somewhere, go somewhere’. In Phiona’s case, she just wants to go to the World Chess Olympiads.
