"Fireworks" is a song by Canadian rapper Drake featuring American singer Alicia Keys from his debut album Thank Me Later (2010).
It was originally thought that Kings of Leon was on the chorus, however, due to lack of sample clearance, it was announced at a concert that Alicia Keys would sing the chorus.
[2] Before his show at Slippery Rock University in Pennsylvania on Monday night April 5, 2010, Drizzy explained to MTV News why he was letting the crowd sample the song.
From there, Drizzy begins talking about his life, joking that his 15 minutes of fame started about an hour ago.
The song was performed in a medley along with "Over" and the remix of Young Jeezy's "Lose My Mind".
