Who is Jill Scott?
Hello to the Lovely and Sophisticated Ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha. Whenever I come across something that is new and refreshing, I like to share it with others. Well I've found something that's both new and refreshing.
Who is Jill Scott? Some of you must be asking that very same question right now. Well who is she? She's a sista with a vibe so strong, it's overpowering. You might not know her, but you know her work. She is responsible for the hook for the Roots "You Got Me". Although Erykah Badu sang it and was in the video, Jill Scott was responsible for the hook. If you pick of Common's "Like Water for Chocolate", she's on a cut called "Funky For You". Now she's stepping out on her own. She's apart of a huge team of artists called the Soulquarians. This group includes Erykah Badu, The Roots, D'Angelo, and Common just to name a few. This CD is a must have. She only has one single out that I know of right now. "Getting In the Way". They are showing the video on BET. If you saw the video and liked the single, they are far better grooves on the CD. In the spirit of Erykah, Lauren and Amel, Jill is a refreshing anticdote to todays trite R&B scene. She envokes the soul of Marvin and Tammy, Minnie Ripperton, etc. So if you're in the mood for something different, try Jill Scott. I hope I'm not the only one up in here who's heard of this sista. So dare to be different. Once you here the CD, you'll have no doubt who Jill Scott is.
