I love her.. I love her.. she is "THE REAL THING".. This woman tells my emotions, my moods, my strengths.. She is powerful to my soul and empowering to me as another woman! Thank you Jill !!
what's so amazing is that because of the power & realness in her lyrical content..no matter what age, we are able to understand it & appreciate it w/o doing something stupid w/ it. It's not about the sex with the lyrics. It's the power of the lyrics.
wow I really wish everybody thought like her.... man I love Jill Scott I wish knew her personally she would be a great mentor for young woman like me.. I wish they kick artist that make our black race look bad out the game and place only artist like Jill in in maybe would like my generation cause they need serious work..... :)
I love Jill Scott and hate that I am so late. I just learned about how amazing she was when I heard The Real Thing. What I really appreciate is that she makes it okay to feel life and so many people run away from it. I love the passion. She reminds me that it is okay to have that passion when life tells you you shouldnt. Real stuff..just love it and hope to continue to learn, grow, and listen. Do ya thang girl..do it up for all those who need guidance..we're watching and listening.
LMAO She Is Right About That Part " All The Things I See When Your inside Of Me" I Am 15 NOW Lol And I Heard That song When I Was 13 And Still Love It. I Knew What She Was Talking About But I Was Mature To Hear It And Still Am And Jill Scott Is One Of The reason's I Am A 15 Year Old Poet!!!! I LOVE YOU JILL SCOTT!!! JUST GO ON MY YOUTUBE PAGE AND SEE LOL!!!
this is why i love jill scott. shes not only intelligent but articulate and bold enough to say what she has to say..and she doesnt knock other people for doing the same. shes a great example.
It was meant to be; the 'haters' didnt know it, but they helped her write a FANTASTIC album.
I love Jill for putting complicated and complex feelings into words. I appreciate what she is doing for us - we are not just the smiling-all-the-time, non-sexual, non-feeling, only-there-for-your-satisfaction black woman, particularly we who arent a size 6.
Youre my Shero! Girl, Im right there with you. Do your thang! Say what you want to say. Kids, go play outside somewhere - grown folks is talkin.
I love this lady! I feel her story about her mom! and that part about not wanting to do anything on demand! ...my mom exposed me to so much and it has really help me grow! I always ask her "how did you know" - how did she know that I would need all those experiences and where I was going. She says she didn't know ....she just knew that the most successful people she knew had a wealth of experiences that shaped them! Thank you! Mom! ...and if you want me to do nothing ...tell me I HAVE to!
I dont get it ,how can anyone hate on this woman?!She's simply unique and amazing beyond words!Hearing her sing...and hearing her speak...l'm honestly amazed!!! EVERYBODY just listen ,we all might learn something here!True beauty<3<3<3
I'm really not into human worshiping but I can not explain how much I adore this woman. I simply have no words...She's just so real, so fearless, so honest with others and herself. I wish there were more people like her. Not just artists but people in general.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The funny part is that there is this ad. underneath this big girl, Jill Scott that reads: "Papa John's. Get a medium-sized cheese pizza for 25 cents." LOL!
My brother likes big women. He proably loves this heavyweight here.
Jill, Erykah and Angie are the realest female artists out there. They are talented beyond their years. All a hybrid of jazz/RnB, Funk/Hip-hop and Neo.
Big respect goes out to Jill, love everything you do. Keep inspiring!!
i feel you DollyMat....i respect those queens so much. Put these overrhyped artists to shame. Can anyone imagine Alicia Keys or Beyonce having an interview like this? Mmm...right.
As she says in Reel #1, in this album there has been a great marriage between lyrics&music (though my favourite one is Beautifully Human), it gives you some new fresh air and fills your soul with both painful and sweet memories. Ty Jill!
my god this woman is phenomenal in my most humble opinion by me being strong believer in reincarnation I truly without a doubt in my mind believe jill scott is the reincarnation of billie holiday they look alike and they sound alike the similiarities are uncanny this is a miracle life never ends it only goes into another body just my opinion jill is a force to br reckoned with
Jill Scott is amazing, she's an artist, a poet and a storyteller. This album is captivating and it strokes every emotion good or bad...It's just a lovely piece of art...
Jill you were BORN to do This.There is definitely a message in your music.The newly single you still speaks to my married 12years self.Continue to DO YOU .Because You are so like the rest of us,u jus have background music to your Pain and your love.Keep'em coming.
I love your new album jill scott. Especially the track "Imagination" on the Deluxe Edition, I urge everyone to get this album. True artistic quality music!
nice username i like song that too by jill scott. but she is just getting a little sexual too much. especially after she did the movie "why did i get married"
sexuality is a fact of life and when you embrace it and understand you are a created being able to feel these emotions is beautiful if your married an intimate you can reach heights of sensuality with music as a conduit.......and it's not evil to be sensual or sexual as long as it's not abused
I believe what she is singing is not so much sexual, but more sensual. It's all about a making love expression. The closeness with your lover. I Think it was beautiful. Something you read in like a Eric Jerome Dickey Book. Compared to the crap rappers like lil wayne put out. That's just nasty.
Gurrl you are an amazing individual and it's his loss...I wish I knew you personally, your spirit is just so...we say MashaAllah...but I'd say to you...it's divine decree.
Jill, Your honesty that comes forth in your lyrics is what help women like me connect. In some way shape or form I'm sure we have all been there. Thank you for giving all of yourself and for giving REAL GOOD MUSIC!
man jill is just so, beutiful, soulful and deep and smooth wit her lyrics and songs, her music makes you want to fall in love, and it also shows you how love can really work between two people and a relationship, she lets u know its ok to show your emotions, and I love that ya dig
the store ran out fo the double edition. but i got the original. thats what matters. still dissapointed i didnt get the limited but the songs are great!
I didn't know about the double edition. Can you tell me more about what is on it. I have the original. But I'll go out and by the other set too, she is worth it.
it has offcourse the average tracks. plus 2 extra ones (not the GOLDEN live) and a dvd with some videos like MY LOVE and A LONG WALK n HATE ON ME. so its a cd with 2 extra tracks n a dvd of videos. i would love to hear the extra 2 ones. 1 of em is called CROWN ROYAL SUITE and the other 1 i dont know. yea you should get it, if you can. she IS the REAL THING.
YES!! i was REALLY surprised too. but there will be surprises. but as long as its real, deep. ima love it. ever since i got it, i been rockin it! love it. genius, very daring, but we gotta take risks sometimes.
"There are no differences in our needs. I know when my cat wants to be loved. It's the same with all of us: artists, doctors, scientists, cab drivers." Principals, too! (I am a school principal.) Principals! "Just one somebody is good enough for most people." I thank God that I have that one somebody.
Two things that Jill said really sold me on this CD. One was "I listened - to y'all and to myself." The other was "I was definitely trying to channel Sarah Vaughan." I had to pinch myself when I heard THAT!
See, now she and Chaka will have me at somebody's counter with my penny jar ... and it will be worth every penny. Thank you!
Jill Scott I hope you drop by here to see what your fans are saying! WE LOVE YOU! God, I cannot wait to get your album this coming Tues Sept 25! Thank You Jill X
She is such a beautiful woman inside and out. She should be an inspiration to all women. She just always has so much to say and it's always so poignant. I love this woman and can't wait for the album to come out.
This is a great concept. I love how Jill shares her soul and passion with the audience on and off stage. Her admiration for her mother is palpable. I aspire to be the type of mother who is willing to share new experiences with my children so that they will think of me the way Jill thinks of her mother.
Great Interview...I am raising a son and two daughters. This is a beautiful reminder and living testament to making sure I give them the opportunity to see the world and try new things. Look at the results of having an open mind....
i am such a @missjillscott FANatic I hope to see her in cleveland Aug 3
