I love the performance very much. I watched the awards just to see her perform and of course I was blown away by the performance. I recorded it just so that I can watch it over and over. See you this weekend at the Hampton Jazz Festival this weekend. Love you JILL!!
Jill sang my favorite Al Green Song & she did a wonderful job!
I did not waych the show, but i am confident that Jil did a great jobv luv Ya!!!! Oh don’t get married yet Jill please!!!
Jill did a fabulous job at the BET Awards–She was the highlight of the show. I will say that I would love to see Jill ‘bring it” to TV as she brings it to all her concerts. Her eclectic sound is her signature. Sometimes I feel she holds back a pinch when she is perfoming at the Award shows. Bascially bring the full Jill Scott Experience to the award show/TV.
Love ya Jill
Congratulations on the Engagement
I could NOT wait until it was Jill’s turn to sing! Every single time she sings, my heart is open wide, so that I can feel her spirit…whether it’s happy or sad! I love to see her perform because she has so much grace and poise…..she’s very deep and I totally understand her words. Thank you Jill for bringing the real thing!!!
Good job boo!!! Very well done, but ain’t nothing like seeing her in concert.
Jill you did your thing!!! You were the highlight of the night for me. You got a sexy swagger that no one can touch!!! Congrats on the engagement you deserve to be LOVED. I can’t wait to hear the songs that will come out of this relationship. I look forward to seeing you in Hampton this weekend and at Firday’s at Sunset in August.
Much love
I love every moment of it she was the best to me. And I saw that lovely ring of hers. Im so Happy for you Jill!!!!!!
Hello,
Jill you did you thing last night with Al Green. You know eveyone can’t sing live and that what I love about you. You are the best always
I was so happy to see Jill Scott deliver yet another beautiful and heartfelt performance. She did a wonderful job and can’t wait to hear and see what’s next for this “Beautifully Human” artist.
As always, Ms. Jill was sheer perfection. She looked amazing and her performance was one of sheer………………….perfection. Her voice is sent from the heavens and her beauty astounds me. I have never had any gripe with any performance that I’ve evr seen of hers and I’m not starting now. Wonderful!
keep up the good work Jill love the hair
Jilly did a fantastic job!!! Her voice is as beautiful as she is, keep doing the thang.
Love Ya!!!
J. from the L.V.
Is there any other way for Jill to be but EXCELLENT! Can’t wait for you to come to Cleveland girl.
Jill did an AWESOME job at tha BET awards last night….. Jill performance was bout tha best performance of tha night, to be honest…… Her vocals was off tha chain as usual and Al Green was very interesting during her performance……
James M. I feel you brotha… Jill was the only reason I watched tha awards also…..
I don’t have cable/dish/etc. so I could not watch and so far no one has answered my request to record the performance…boo hoo. But I hear tell that Jilly was the bomb! I read an article about the show and Jill’s performance at http://www.eurweb.com/story/eur44703.cfm
Jill’s performance on the BET Awards was simply OUTSTANDING. I love the sultriness of her voice. They picked the right one to sing that song! Keep it up Jill! Congrats on the engagement too!
I loved the performance. It was the best performance of the night. I LOVED the dress. Who designed the dress? Where can I get it in a 22 or one similiar?
yES i ABSOLUTELy LOVED THEE PERFORMANCE! SHE’S MY FAV0RiTE SiNGER 0F ALL TiME; i AM HER biGGEST FAN ! TRUST !.. i L0VE y0U jiLL AND i LOOK FOWARD T00 MEETiNG y0U S00N !
Jilly! I was excited to see and hear you perform at the BET Awards. You kilt it! And, you looked gorgeous as usual. The BET Awards were whack but you DEFINITELY did your thing. *Can’t wait to see you 7/30 here in Atlanta.
Loved the BET tribute to the Rev. Al Green.
It was the usual Jill Scott GENIUS!
BLESSINGS!
You were AWESOME!!!!!!!! I missed it live, but it doens’t mean I didn’t missed it. I recorded the whole thing, except for the after party, I forgot. But, I loved it a WHOLE LOT!!! You did so well that “good” or “great” OR “so well” can’t describe it. Love it!
Girl you know u are so bad….. You just don’t know! Take care and be safe on the road : )
gill has great legs!
i think the only artist that did justice to the al tribute was maxwell. even al had trouble and sounded off key to his own songs.
i still like jill as an artist, but her Al Green tribute was a bit mediocre compared to other JS performances

Ever since seeing Jill live during The Real Thing tour, I have anticipated every performance she gives. I actually didn’t even know she was going to be featured, but what a pleasant surprise it was for me and all others.
Jill’s ensemble and the newly styled hairdo looked wonderful, especially with the coordinating background scenery. And Jill…”I’m Still In Love You”
Lady Jill,
Thank you very much for your butterfly collection.
Can I please, please,please ask you to make bigger sizes. There are alot if us that are bigger than a 44 DDD, some of us are, 48,50 DD, DDD,some of us are E’s and FF. We need the bra too. Thank you for caring.
I love that dress. Can anyone tell me the designer or where I can get a knock off?
Jill can make any song her own. Nobody does it better. It was phenomenal as Jill always is.
She was absolutely amasing, I really dont know how she does it as she makes it look so easy on stage. I have been a fan from her first album. I am seeing her tomorrow in Brixton London, she is the best that has done it in her Genre.;
Just saw the re run today and caught her on the tube.. BLOWN away.. she looked breath taking rockin’ the stage and (even though this is redundant) sounded amazing.. Her rendition of Al’s song was on point. Expect nothin’ lesser.
Not suprised how good this was. She’s always been bad like I said; I swear I’ve been in every story and situation she is singing about on every cut. I FEEL her for real. Badder then anything I hear out here today, and the beats… true to the real funk, hip-hop & soul of our time & past generation. The girl is bad!! Need I say more?
I’ll c you @ Chastain, & would’ve paid WHATEVER 2 c u girl!!! Don’t stop what u do~!~!~!~One!
WHAT WAS THE SONG THAT SHE SANG?
I just saw you at Merriweather Post Pavillion and I must say, you were born with a gift of music in your heart. I loved the show and did not want to go home. love you Jill, stay true to yourself, and the music you love, and your fans will stay true to you.
show them girl how to really sing-

Sista’s got taste. Where does she get the clothes? And the hair, to die for! Got me going all natural, so refreshing!!!! Pleeeeeeease come to South Africa.
I loved the performace. I wish I could find a recording for it. I thought it was sweet and smooth and all Jill’s music is.
