Many happy more Jill and thanks for the tunes!

HBD to Jill. Wow I would have never thought her to be 40. She looks damned good. Black don't crack!

I thought she was younger as well. Today is also Kelly Price's bday

Happy Birthday!!!

hmm.. I have the album "Experience: Jill Scott 826+" sitting on my CD shelf, unopened.. maybe I'll give it a listen today. I've never heard any of her music before, but I found this CD for $1, so I bought it.

40? I could've sworn she was like 37 or 38 at least. Wow.

I love Jill Scott. Her music does similar things for me to what Badu does.

40? happens to the best of us.

How have you never heard Jill's music before?

That's a good album despite my dislike of live albums, and for $1 it's a steal, however I would recommend any of the 3 Words & Sounds albums as a better starting point.

HAPPY b-dAY jILL & CONGRATS ON ACCOMPLISHING UR FIRST NUMBER#1 ALBUM ON BILLBOARD..U LOOK JUST AS BEAUTIFUL IN PERSON......

We lost her....

lol just kidding, I love her.

Gettin' In The Way is still my fav JS jam.

I'm listening to it now. Only on track 2, but I like it so far.. though I think I'd rather hear a studio album. According to the sticker on the case, disc 2 is studio tracks, so maybe I'll like them better. I don't usually like hearing songs live if I've never heard the original studio version.

I'm sure you'll love it. "Lyzel in E-Flat" is a masterpiece. You'll see what I mean when you hear it.

Happy Birthday to J.I.L.L. S.C.O. - T.T.......

Jill has some pipes on her!

Why does everyone think her music is boring?

I can't speak for everyone, but her debut was the only album that still sounds fresh & exciting to me.

Remember her scene from "Why Did I Get Married?" while she's driving when she said something to the effect that "I don't wanna listen to something that makes me drive off a bridge"? Well thats how I feel about her music.

Great voice, coma inducing material though.

Harle, you don't like hate on me or Golden?

becouse it is!!

her first album was so so good,so fresh,so organic ,so artistic

just an utter masterpiece.

a long walk? lyzel in E??

buying her man strawberries and croissants??? i LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!

and her second was .......good.i loved it.nowhere near as good as who is? but still really good

AND THEN

her 3rd sounded of an artist believing the hype...incredibly dissapointing and the rest i have heard snippets.

i now lump her in with angie stone...dull crowd pleasing soul with lots and lots of "positivity" blah blah

scriptgirl said:

SCUSE ME whilse i but in

i LOVED golden..remember it being on prince's website..excited for the album and then the cd dropped and it was so fucking dull dull dull dull

but yeah golden is great

hate on me?? nah

i actually saw her live touring who is? in edinburgh and it was amazing

saw her again two years later in glasgow and that was also amazing but i had noticed that she came across as slightly full of herself....

as to me her 3rd cd onwards soes

call it self belief,confidence etc

No. I still cringe at the times when I hear "Hate On" me getting played somewhere, which are far and few between.

Ya know that song was about okayplayer, right? Here this woman got everybody singing her praise, and what she do? Decides to sing about a message board because a bunch of posters weren't impressed with her music. That showed me how full of shit this woman is.

never knew it was about okayplayer!

she once wrote this sublime review of "parade" for a british music mag...i framed it it was so on point.

but i totally hear your point about being full of shit.

but sayig that i could wax lyrical about who is? all day!

Jill is one of the few true artists popular in mainstream music today. She sings like a angel and doesn’t need autotune. Her charisma as a performer is very intimate. If you ever get a chance to see Jill play a small club drop everything and do it. You will never forget that show.
