Fifteen-time Grammy Award winner Alicia Keys just announced she’ll be releasing a Christmas album just in time for the holiday season.

Alicia Keys recorded the album while on her European tour this summer. The 11-track “Santa Baby” album will feature four original songs and seven holiday classics.

“I know it’s not even Halloween yet….. but I had to let y’all know first!! Santa Baby NOV 4th,” she penned in the caption. “Just in time for good vibes!!” said Keys on Twitter.

Keys just released her eighth studio album, “Keys II,” a deluxe album in which she pays homage to her time and style. The first half of the album “Originals,” features low-key, piano-driven tracks, while the second half, “Unlocked,” features more upbeat, danceable versions of the tracks.

“The goal was to own my greatness, to own the shoulders that I stand on,” Keys told Apple Music.

The mother of two has also stepped into the beauty field with her Keys Soul Care makeup line that’s inspired by natural tones and fresh ingredients.

Between family and various business ventures, Keys still managed to tour and create a brand new album. Some fans and music gurus are wondering if the album will make Keys as the new “Queen of Christmas.”

“I picked each song based on my all-time favorites and I wrote the new ones based on real holiday emotions and stories,” said Keys on her Instagram story.
