The only album I don't have from her though is the one with the "PMS" expresssion, the purse and the video where she walks her ass off for the whole 4 minutes 
I'm trying to see what everybody's raving about but,,,,, is that the one with the lyrics that read like a series of boring twitter updates? Woke up this morning with a smile on my face Jumped out of bed took a shower dressed cleaned up my place Made me some breakfast toast 2 scrambled eggs  grits
Grabbed my keys grabbed my purse grabbed my jacket Off to work | |

How long has Jill been out, just nine years? They always say you're a legend due to both great performances and a long career. She has a long way to go YEARS-wise to be considered "one of the greats". I don't mean it in terms of talent, which she got lots of. | |

I definitely think we need to distance ourselves timewise to gain a perspective sometimes. I wouldn't mind naming some folks from the 1990s as "greats". | |

Ya'll leave Harle alone, or she'll pull out her emory board one you. 
misfee right Jill's live performances, OMG! One of the dozen or so artist for me.. their album/digital recordings don't capture their true essence. Love this women... love her videos. Most music videos put me in a coma. ===== [Edited 11/22/09 11:25am] | |

If we're gonna call somebody "great",,,lets start with Lalah Hathaway. Now there's a diva that hasn't had her dues, and she has been in this business for what? 20 years. | |

Never knew she's been out 20 some years though, just started hearing her stuff a few years ago. I mean thats cool if ya'll think she's more deserving of the title, but Jill definitely gets the title in my book. As I've been saying a lot on the org lately, we can all agree to disagree.  I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |
