Egypt Daoud Dean, son of Alicia Keys, is not yet 12 years old, but he seems to have inherited his mother's musical talent.
While giving a concert in the city of Mannheim in Germany, in front of an audience of 17,000 people, the American artist invited her eldest to a musical performance.

What will he play, she wonders.
“A bit of piano”, answers the child soberly.
The Girl on Fire
singer
asks the audience if they approve.
Faced with loud cheers, she finally allows Egypt nicknamed Egy to launch.
And the child not intimidated to demonstrate his talents in a series of linked pieces without any difficulty.
Apparently complex pieces that require a certain dexterity.
For the occasion, the pre-teen pianist is simply dressed in a basketball outfit: shorts, sleeveless T-shirt and red sneakers.
He decided to do his performance standing up, one foot on the ground, the other resting on the platform holding the instrument.
"Young King"
Alicia Keys posted the video on her Instagram account, along with a long text of encouragement for her son.
She seems to be the first impressed with his professionalism.
“Egy we are so proud of you!!!
That's crazy !
He asked me to go on stage at each show and I'm in “mother bear” mode.
I think to myself… “Is this too much?
Too much people ?
Is this the right time?
Does he still need to practice?
And this guy goes on stage like it's not 17,000 people and just a smash hit!
All confident, all smiles, all natural!
wow!
I am blown away !!”, she underlines.
