EXHILARATING, TRIBAL, LOUIE ARMSTRONG INSPIRED SCATTING BY JILL SCOTT!THE ROOTS.. NEED I SAY MORE! HIP HOP AT IT'S BEST! !!" THE CROWD IS ONE! MY SOUL' 'S THIRST. 4 THE REAL JUST GOT QUENCHED
I wanna see her go up against any of these singers nowadays and blow they ass out the damn water!!!! that aint auto tuned, that aint no studio adjudted lyrics and vocals.THAT ISH IS LIVE AND POPPIN
WOOOOO! 68 people need a 69! this performance alone could make you cum and they did not feel that? Seriously? Jill & the Roots put a new kind of stank on this one.
@drogheda1966 Loved that show! Was really disappointed, when it ended. yeah, Jill S. is awesome. I'm embarrassed to say, I didn't even know she was a singer until now.
The absolute GREATEST remix of a hit song in concert-form, that I EVER have heard....I remember seeing this on the humble many years ago, and: decided to look it up again, just because it moved me, SO.
@joeeregulah this was not a remix...Jill was the original person to sing this song with the Roots. She had gotten her record deal and was touring when they wanted to record it so they got Erykah Badu to sing it for the radio version.
@mycsmom I appreciate the knowledge, love; and, I know the history of the track, and what happened when it came to time to show and prove.
The reason that I call it a "remix" isn't necessarily because Jill is on it, and Erykah isn't; it's because of the arrangement and the excess lyrics, which aren't present in the first arrangement or the Erykah-mix either, you feel me...??
But, either way: DOPE footage, to be exact. Philly Jilly did her thing, no question...
would kill to be at this concert live....a ridiculous collaboration here! this is real music! ....check the group "INRG - TAKE A PICTURE" for some more classy vibes!
Jill Scott wrote this song but they passed her up for the (then) more famous Erykah Badu. The fact that she starts the song off so grandiosely is just like saying, "Now, this is MY time!"
super tight!...and ?uestlove holding the beat on the skinz back there....intensity is electric whole vid....THIS is what a live performance should be!!!
This is one of the best live performances I've ever seen. Jill keeps this song moving and the Roots as always are off the chart. My only regret is that I wasn't there to experience this phenomenon live!
how the fuck do 63 people dont like this the fuck do yall not know talent when yall see it they killed this from start to finish get em JILLY FROM PHILLY
Oh I would have loved to be at that concert. I think it would have been cool if Michael Jackson did a song together. I know it was random but it was just a thought :)
obviously ur user name speaks for itself! lol to tlk about someones appearance is clearly wrong when you dont even have a picture of urself on here but of the Jordan symbol. ha! true humor sykes me out seriously! get a life!
I so much wish the qualitiy would be better. But aside from that way better than the original version, even though in general I like Erkah Badu. Great!!
@kareem31b i think it was in the vibe or something.she was supposed to perform the song but the roots and their label decided to go with badu coz she was well known.it would have created a good buzz for her but instead she came into the game out of the blue without featuring in many artists songs.thats why she named her album "who is jill scott"
I felt bad for Jill Scott years later when l found out The Roots stole her shine on this ORIGINAL joint. Good for her tho coz she became more famous than The Roots anyway.go figure
@EdiBlazE Huh? I know she wrote the lyrics for Erykah Badu on the original song, I have never heard the Roots tried to do her wrong. Where did you see or read that at? I dont believe that for one minute the Roots stole her shine!
