Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

With the summer season comes a boatload of anniversaries to celebrate, and we’re happy to see some of our favorite celebrity couples still hitting those love milestones. Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz are celebrating 10 years of marriage. Like the cool kids they are, the two artists found a dope (and undisclosed) location to get away and enjoy their anniversary.

We couldn’t get enough of them vibing out to reggae music under a blazing sunset in the desert. I’m not sure about you, but this is what I call living life!
