Beautifully Human got me through some rough patches during that time. Thanks for helping a brotha out. I always connect with music the evokes emotion. Don’t loose that…it sets you apart and makes your music real.

Ari, Santa Barbara, CA// Sep 24, 2007 at 11:53 pm
Jilly from Philly!
I have been waiting for this CD to drop – I keep checking Itunes hoping that it will be available earlier than midnite (lol). I am waiting patiently…had to get a taste of the new stuff on your website – sorry I couldn’t wait! Every single track is ON POINT! You put your heart and soul into this CD and it shows! Keep doing your thing – you are an inspiration to women of all ages and race.
Thank you for your beautiful music and for sharing your intimate thoughts. All of your sistas can relate to each and every word that you sing – I can definently relate, that is for damn sure!
Thank you AGAIN for letting sistas know that it’s okay to go through these emotions and that it is okay to express ourselves and to go deep within ourselves to find our true selves.
I appreciate your voice – continue to use it to touch the hearts and souls of many!
Let’s make you #1
Peace and Love,
Ari

HI, JILL.

YOUR BIGGEST FAN……..

Hey Jill! I’m a huge fan! I was at the 24 hour Walmart at 12:05am waiting for your CD to be put on the stands. I really want you to add Kansas City, MO to your tour calendar. I’m an artist myself and I know what the industry thinks about KC but trust me when I say we are coming up in the world. Please show us some love, I know you will get it back. Holla at your girl when you come I’ll be the chunky one screaming her head off on the 1st row! LOL! LOL! Thanks for keeping it real

Cat – Toronto// Sep 25, 2007 at 12:21 pm
Hi Jill!
How are you? Congratulations on your latest work of art! I have listened to mere fragments on the internet of what I can tell will be one of your most phenomenal works yet. I diarized your album release in my physical and mental calendar, and have told everyone I know (fan or not) that your album is dropping, so watch out!
The big day has now arrived, and as soon as the stores opened this morning, I was there before going into work, searching and searching for your CD, but alas, the search has rendered itself fruitless. Unfortunately, as it turns out, your Toronto fans will not be able to purchase your latest work for days, perhaps even weeks, because the leading music outlet in Canada (HMV) claims to be at a dischord with your label, and will not receive the shipment in as soon as I would like (i.e. now). I would ordinarily pursue the bureaucratic avenues set in place by HMV for their dissatisfied customers, but I thought I might appeal to you first. I thought you might be able to offer me some kind words to will me into being patient until your album arrives in Canada. I also thought I would make your label aware, and kindly plead with them to send a shipment of your latest work, and soon! We miss you up here, Jill, and I suppose, I will have to patiently wait to hear your wonderful “Words”. Thanks for taking time.
Kind regards,
Cat
Chelle Florence, Sc// Sep 25, 2007 at 1:13 pm
Hey Jill it’s your # 1 fan …just wanted to say that I eagerly anticipated purchasing your cd today. I was able to hear samples of the album and after having a taste of it I knew I had to have the Real Thing.
You have been such an inspiration to me and I just wanna say thanks for the new music and you truly deliver on every album you ever made. Your music speaks from the heart and that’s real. Stay sweet and God bless!
Chris P, Nashville, TN// Sep 25, 2007 at 1:27 pm
Hey Jill! All my life I have been searching for a strong artist who made the kind of music like you does. You know there is an old saying in the church. People can understand and feel you when you sole is right and I can feel that from you. You are strong black woman and I love it! its in your walk, your songs, your talk, life everything! I am enjoying your new album to the fullest. I am praying that the Lord keep you strong! If you have time drop me a line!

The new album is absolutely phenomenal! Jill Scott continues to inspire me and I wish her much more success. Go on sista!
Margarite of Tennessee// Sep 26, 2007 at 7:13 am
Jill, you are smoothest sister i ever heard. I like your style and I truly feel what you say. I hope to one day see you in concert. You really break it down!
Shakuanda, Miami// Sep 26, 2007 at 8:12 am
I could not wait to get my hands on my copy of The Real Thing. I love it! I love Jill and how she expresses how we all feel inside. Keep doing your thing! Your positive words and wisdom is much needed and appreciated. Thank you for being you!
Shaunta Eason, Houston, Texas// Sep 26, 2007 at 10:17 am
Jill,
I love you! I have all of your music and will continue enhande my collection with all that you grace with your spirit. I heard you on the Tom Joyner morning show as I drove in to work today and thought to check out this site. Glad I did, I want to ask if you’ve ever had a desire to launch a clothing line? You have a tasteful and trendy flava about yourself and I’d love to go to a shop that caters to sizes 14 & 16. Wow to imagine building my wardrobe with some cute, sexy and business attire with tasteful flava! The clothing and fashion industry makes “us” ample girls feel that we’re out of sync only offering the non-cute clothing options that forces us to dress OLD, or in flowers or fish! Just a thought, I wished there were a Jill Scott Line or a Jill Scott clothing store that I could go to and by my clothes from.
May God continue to bless and show his favor on you! We’re holding it down in Houston for you.
P.S.
I left my husband this year in February after being with him 17 years. I’d like to tell you to hold you head up and I hope that you live in the peace of a free spirit since ending your marriage. You’d think I lived under a rock, I only heard about it this morning on my drive in………Go head girl!
Best regards,
Shaunta McConnell-Eason
Veve, Jacksonville, FL// Sep 26, 2007 at 4:18 pm
I love u Jill.Ur spirit is so sweet and unique. I love ur rhymes, ur poetry, ur high self esteem in the midst of this crazy expectation society. I love how u show us women it’s okay to express ourselves in the skin that God blessed us with. I also write poetry when I am inspired. I have a poem that I wrote to my husband before we were married called Music to My Love and I know that u would make a beautiful song out of it. Ur voice and style is so unique and special. I pray that God continues to lift u higher and higher and also continues to give u the beautiful poetry and music that u bless us with.
Thank you so much Jill u r truly an inspiration to many. Congrats on the new movie and please come closer to Jacksonville, Fl. Until u do I will catch ur show in either MIami or Atlanta:):):)

Christopher M. Young, Atlanta// Sep 27, 2007 at 7:41 pm
Many don’t know the pain
How the heart can strain
Losing the so-called love of your life
And inside… only a emptiness remains
Let me tell you this,
You are loved by GOD and once again will experience bliss…
And there will be sunshine after the rain.
But this is your time to get to know you
You are not stuck in your situation, Baby…
You are only going through.
So, that heartache that you feel…
It will go away and the pain will heal
Because GOD still loves you and on to you HE’s holdin’.
There was a reason for that season…
For you to know you are never alone,
You’re cherished,
Your golden.
K.I.N.G Young

Oh boi, Jill I have always loved your albums. When you came out with real thing i took my broke a** straight to the store and spent my last. I am beyond happy that I did. This album sums up my life in the last year and a half. I mean seriously were you spying on me or reading my poems on myspace, or even better sneaking in my house and reading my upcoming books. I’ve met you a couple of times and I am always like a star struck kid you just amaze me with your talent and humbleness. I feel like I grew with you and inpart because of you. You make music that Ican relate to. My best friend got her album a few hours before me and called me to tell me, my life was all in and around your songs, Keep on writing because your work makes me work harder. THANK YOU JILL SCOTT for simply being you.

Christine, Philadelphia// Oct 2, 2007 at 11:43 pm
Lovin’ the vibe of the new album. I just ordered it and can’t wait to get it. I have to admit that you’re my favorite artist. I’ve not ever really had a favorite artist, but you are definitely it. Girl, I’ve seen you in Phila, Va, and CA. If I have the opportunity, I’ll be in DC when the date is confirmed. God bless you as you travel over seas in the coming months. Sorry to hear of you love loss, but glad that you’re ok too. God knows it takes more than life to break a woman God plans to use for a productive purpose. Keep doing your thing. Be blessed. Oh yeah that collab album was genius, too. Great songs, great artist, great time had by all of your fans. Are you involved in any projects in Philly helping young women? I’d like to get involved. By the way you keep me inspired to never let the ink in my pen run dry, but let it flow from my heart to help someone, record right and wrongs, make clear the plan and path, connect the past to the future and show love with a purpose. So many things to say, but not now. keep being cool and sexy…you represent Philly well. Peace

Jill , i must say , you are one of the strongest and most deepest singers of my time and i’m only 17. I love Who is Jill Scott?. I know i going to love this cd, cause Hate On Me is my anthem. Keep doing what you doing, cause you are inspiration to young girls like me everywhere!!!!
Denise// Oct 3, 2007 at 8:06 pm
This CD is the best that you have ever done! We experience changes in our life for a reason. Don’t know why….. just enjoy life’s ride that it is taking you now Jill with your family and true friends. Somethings are done for a reason and we don’t know why. We must go forward and just accept everything that is happening in our life. You wrote the songs that express what you were going thru and now you can go forward but still can take a peak back and remember some goods things. Thank your for this outstanding CD! Divorce is needing new space and room to grow. This CD is excellent you took time to write and express your true feelings. You are a true person with so much personality. I saw you on Oprah and you were down to earth and for real.
Zephanie/ Tennessee// Oct 4, 2007 at 10:52 am
Jill,
You are the most talented artist I have ever heard of!! You know how to speak directly to my very inner woman.
You are definitely an inspiration to me. Quite beautiful too!! Thank you for being an artist with REAL music and having REAL lyrical talent. Not everybody can do that.!!!… Especially today!
Tori Smith, North Little Rock, Arkansas// Oct 4, 2007 at 12:53 pm
Jill, I just want to let you know that I bought your new album the day it came out, and I has to be one of your best albums yet. I have all of your albums and I love all of those too. You have the most powerful voice, and I can tell you put a lot of emotion in what you write. I would love to see you in concert. Can you schedule some midwest tour dates? Like in Memphis or Little Rock? You have a lot of fans in Little Rock!!!!! Again, love your album!!! It should have debut at #1!!!!!
Carmela, Texas// Oct 4, 2007 at 1:01 pm
Thank you, thank you, thank you for bringing real music back! This album really speaks to my soul, and no matter how hard I try, I can’t stop playing it. You have a way of using words and vocabulary that nobody else has even thought of, and I love you for that! You are truly gifted and I love the way you intertwine poetry / spoken word, rap, and singing into your songs. That’s tight as hell! Congratulations on another hit album and I look forward to seeing you in “Why Did I Get Married?”.
P.S. “Crown Royal” and “Epiphany” are off the chain!!! I was driving when I heard these songs and had to quickly pull over because my mind just started drifting back down memory lane about a man from my past. Your songs always seem to correlate to something in my life, past or present, and I appreciate that.

“Hate on me” is my anthem, please believe it! I love it and you. I also Love Crown Royal. The mini songs are always off the hook they say so much in such a short amount of time. They leave you wanting more but still fully satisfied. I hope you are coming to Detroit, Mrs. Scott!!

Hey Jill,
Sista Gal I want to thank you for being you. I have really enjoyed the new CD. It came out just when needed, being that we both are at a point in our lives where we have to let folks go that are not helpful to our well being.
Thanks again, enjoy being single and loving life.
So much for the HATERS!!!
Waiting impatiently for the arrival of the tour to the Baltimore area.

Jill,
I love your new CD “The Real Thing”!! It is so refreshing to hear a real sista make beautiful music. When are you coming to Indianapolis, IN? I know that your concert will sell out!

Levi Johnson, S.Carolina// Oct 11, 2007 at 2:36 pm
You are simply my metaphysical muse.You truly know how to make a brotha feel good.Ever since your first Words and Sounds,I hang on your evryword and harmony.You please my earsthe way cake pleases my taste buds.I joke to my friends all the time that I missed my time and space to be with you romantically.I truly feel a spiritual connection with you due to your handwritten lyrics which are a self professed extention of your personal and business life.My creativity soars when I listen to you.Please come to the House of Blues in Myrtle Beach,SC.My fiancee’ and I would love to be inspired by your live renditions.We actually had a ugly argument about control and it was over you.She bought your new CD and wanted to chill and listen.Me being a man fresh off of work in another mindframe did not want to listen at the time.She thinks I show shades of control on things like the radio and TV.Little stuff that can cause large riffs.Anyway….We listened and I think I heard Ephiphany and just started groovin in a haze of lyrics.You truly inspire me and pick me up when I am down.Thank you…for just being you.Do not get too small on brothas….brothas love that “little extra”.They just scared to admit it.Peace to You and yours.Also ,I am glad your mother is doing better.Good luck with the Tyler Perry movie too….you guys are gonna break the bank this weekend.
Love and Peace Sent to me from God the Almighty to you,
Levi from Columbia,SC

Distractions
-Original short from L
Take me into your space,
Space crowded with a lifetimes worth of distractions,
I cannot concentrate,
Past loves pass me by in my own personal vortex,
My own personal hell,
I cannot concentrate,
My heart overflows like excessive water in a small cup,
Wait a minute ,
I CAN CONCENTRATE,
The love of my life is next to me ,
Close my eyes ,
Touch her face as a feather that lightly touches the ground,
Distraction just attracted me to my life,
My life clear,
Eyes vivid with pastel colors that paint the tapestry of my future wife’s image,
Yes,
Distractions no more.

well lets see JILL, you are an inspiration for myself and many other woemn oiut there. you make being a woman beautiful. ive just recently had a child and your songs were the only thing to get me through the nine months. every single one of your songs has touched me in a very special way. now because of yoiu my son will grow up knowing what real music is…and thats you gurl!
Antoine Robinson, Cleveland, OH// Oct 12, 2007 at 12:54 pm
I just saw your video for “My Love” and I want to tell you I appreciate your honesty in presentation. It is obvious, without knowing why your relationship ended that your love is still strong, and for you to have the courage to be completely vulnerable in your video is truly what is missing in a lot of music. You are loved by me for you, and you are loved by me for the lyrics that live truth. Keep your head up and stay strong. Peace and Love and Blessings.
D, Northern VA.// Oct 12, 2007 at 12:57 pm

Hello’ Jill Scott I know you want read this are even pay this any attention but i am your biggest fan ever i have all your music. I would love to meet you but i know that will never happen because you are a busy women. I would just like to say that you are a very beautiful down to earth women, so beautiful that if you were in the darkest place on earth your smile would light up that place like the sun. All your music is not like the other singer i listen to your music is from the heart and soul. Your a beautiful person. I hope you see this but if not that’s ok. Yours Truly Samuel Solomon of Altanta Ga.
Carmen Rosado// Oct 16, 2007 at 8:24 am
I first want to thank God for creating a wonderful woman! Second I want to just congratulate you on the AWSOME performance you displayed in “Why Did I Get Maried?” My two favorite parts with you were when you broke on top of the mountain, and then when you cried of joy when you were in the dressing rm with the girls, letting them know how much Joy you wake up with… right there I had told myself that I want to get through my hardship so that I too can wake up with joy in my heart. There is a pure spirit you played and honestly showed and I want to thank you for not holding back, especially when you are going through your own hardship right now. God really used you in greatness in this movie… and as a believer of God I know that he will continue to use you for other great roles… And lastly your music… wow!!! Your topics are so amazing but mostly REAL!!!! And i commend you for taking your life and sharing it with us, fans! God bless your soul and life… may the Lord continue blessing you as who u are and are known to be. Take care
With Love,
Carmen Rosado
Darian N. Cummings// Oct 16, 2007 at 9:05 am
I love ALL of your work and poetry, especially the song “My Love”. At first, I was really vibin’ with the beat, but when I saw that tear fall from your face at the end of the video it really haunted me. I had to call my wife to ask her for forgiveness and it made me pray to God to forgive me for all the hearts I broke – intentionally or otherwise. The video put me on standby and ready to be there for my daughter come that day when she feels what you expressed. The last artist to make me feel like that was Michael Jackson. Gob bless you for helping remember what true love is through your poetry and you works. Much love to you, Jill.
Tasha W, Orlando// Oct 16, 2007 at 10:52 am

Toya, Dallas, TX// Oct 16, 2007 at 12:10 pm
I am of fan of everything you do and I am glad to see you hitting the movie scene in a big way. I think we all got a glimpse of your talent in the show Girlfriends but were blown away in “Why did I Get Married?”, you are a natural. I must admit you had me in tears I guess in a way I was able to relate.I have to say the song I relate to the most on Vol. 3 is No. 7 “My Love”. Oh my goodness this SONG is exactly what I went through constantly in my head. I can relate to it a little bit too much lol. “Whatever” (live in Paris) is also a hit with my repeat button. Keep doing your thang no matter how much they hate on you, more fuel for your motivation.
Love Ya

Your beautiful works have once again helped me remember what one goes through for true love. I had to pray for forgiveness when I heard the song and saw the video for “My Love”. I am on standby for my daughter come that day when she feels what expressed in that song. God bless you for being an amplifier for a Black woman’s heart.

Beautiful Jill, I love your talent & your music! Your voice is so heavenly & fillies my spirit with so much pleasure when I hear it! You’re absolutely amazing with the things you do! Not only are you the greatest singer that my ears have heard & my soul has felt, but you are one outstanding actress! You made a brotha shed some tears with your part in Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married. Your with out doubt a major part of the movies success! I pray that God blesses me on day with the gift of meeting you in person. I can see myself now dropping to my knees & worshiping the ground your standing on, but then my wife busting me upside my head, LOL! Again I’m one of your biggest fans & I’m grateful for what you do & ask you to please continue blessing us with your gift! Much Love! KB

Redd Foxx’s character “Fred G. Sanford” often claimed Lena Horne as his favorite performer.
Well, you’ve suddenly become MY Lena Horne.
I won’t say that Sade has been replaced, but it appears, in my book, that she now has company.
I must check out your “Collaborations CD”. My wife listened to it, and now I will listen to it.
Peej, NY// Oct 19, 2007 at 10:44 am
Jill, I just wanna know how you knew… my thoughts, my feelings were poured into your song “My Love”. How did you know? LOL
Thank you for your insight and perception, I’m sure your words, songs, poems, echo the souls of many. I wish I were able to attend more, in fact, all of your concerts but I treasure your CDs and music. I will support you no matter what, you inspire me. Peace and blessings.

Your songs are poetry to sound. Your emotions become words and sounds that breathe life. Jealous of the paper and pen that capture your every emotion -to be so eloquent! Your seduces the soul and embrace the heart. I tore the cover to the album open like christmas day, feening for the fix my ravished soul so begged for since the last revelation dropped. Thanks QUEEN for your inspiration, your truth, your voice. One love.

Darian N. Cummings, E. St. Louis, IL// Oct 24, 2007 at 9:15 am
Jill, I have many CDs and tapes. I listen to music. I have even called myself a fan of their work, but for the first time ever, I have declared myself a fan AND follower of your work – movies, music, poetry, whatever.
I truly believe that a person’s craft is a reflection of their own soul, and “The Real Thing” was definitely that. A very powerful love atonement CD.
The greatest love revolution since “A Tribe Called Quest”.
It was as if you…
- went through all that mess
- decided to take a nice, long evening walk to downtown Philly
- stopped and thought to yourself that enough was enough
- ripped open your leather jacket and blasted a hologram beam from your chest into the sky
- the image you made formed a heart that covered the whole US…if the space shuttle flew over it they’d see it.
…and all that love came from Philly.
I love you for who you are and what you do.
Please, just keep it coming.
Also, I missed you the 1st time you came to St. Louis. I’m hoping you come back.
Love and Peace

Wayne Cole Iowa// Oct 30, 2007 at 2:52 pm
Ms. Scott,
I must say your beauty, poise, vocal style and recent performance have answered the question Who is Jill Scott???? She is the multi-talented DIVA of this age.
You sent me through a roller coaster of emotions as I followed your characters role through, Why Did I Get Married.. Several messages of true life situations. It reminded the brothers of the importance of committment beyond the surface of I do until, but I do …period. IT LET THE LADIES KNOW THEY CAN BE APPRECIATED BY ANOTHER BROTHER WHO IS WILLING TO LOVE THEM IF THE ONE THEY ARE WITH ISN’T WORTHY OF YA.
I purchased your Deluxe Edition CD for the simple fact that I wanted to see you anytime you came to mind….I’m elated that you included your music video DVD along with your CD. I have been looking for your music DVD’s, looking for your concert DVD’s but to no avail until now and I thank you. I Can’t get enough of you, are you planning to release concert DVD’s following your European Tour???? I can’t wait…:) Are there any readily available on your website to purchase???
Like Aretha Franklin sang, your Ex, when he lost you he lost a good thing, a sweet hearted woman, a priceless gem…didn’t he know this…he should have noticed. Now you are someone else’s blessing. Good For You…yes, you deserve to be love and through your fan base you are loved more than you know beyond those that spit venom…yes I am talking from your interview.
Continue to be blessed, I admire you and all you are doing and do. As for the haters, don’t even give them recognition…Just Float On Sweet Soul Sister:):):):) Smiles…Awaiting your concert when and if it comes to Chicago, Minneapolis or Milwaukee, if you make it this close…I’ll make it to you.

Ms. Scott
Just when I get over the high with joy from your last cd, you blow me away one more again with “The Real Thing Words and Sounds Vol. 3.” GOD is breathing all over your voice. One evening while on the way home from work I was listening to Michael Baisden and then…I heard the first horn note in the intro of “Hate On Me” I was hooked! I had to get the cd, but had to wait until September. It was in early June that I heard it. I have to admit that I was able to turn the intro into a ringtone for my cell phone. Whenever my phone would ring people wanted to know about the ringtone. I would then tell them, it is one of the greatest songs you will be hearing in a few months.Hate On Me has become my anthem. It conveys every emotion that I have been going through with my ex-husband who after almost a 10year divorce has been trying to destroy my life and my child’s love for me.
When I finally got the cd (the one that included the dvd music videos) when it dropped, I couldn’t open it fast enough. had no idea captivated I would be with ALL the songs! “Whenever You’re Around”, is so infectiously sexy. Our brothers need to take heed to “How It Make Feel.” You’ve brought quality back to music.
Bountiful blessings to you my sista.
I just saw “Why Did I Get Married” sista girl! You put your feet soooo deep in the role of Sheila.
You’re in a class all your own made especially by GOD.
You are truly living your life like it’s GOLDEN :
Joyce Rose-Harrs, Columbia, SC// Oct 31, 2007 at 2:24 pm
Hello,
I just purchased and finished listening to the new CD. It is awesome. I don’t have a favorite track yet, but I am leaning toward track 6. I love the virgin experience of hearing a new Jill Scott song. Your music and your words bring me so much joy. You inspire me to keep writing when I hear your words and music together. Keep it up. I hope to see the new Tyler Perry movie soon, however, I am recovering from surgery. And I did not want to bust a stitch.
Peace,
Joyce

I love your music. When I went to pick up the cd the guy in line behind was trying to be all up in my basket and he saw your cd with my items, so he ran back and picked up and used it as a way to get my number which i figured was funny. So he calls me the next day and was soooo happy that he ran into me because he has been missing out on all your music. So now he has went back and purchased all your old albums and we can not stop playing crown royal and how it make you feel. Those songs speak to my…mainly “how it makes you feel” living in Arizona I play on campus on purpose so these balck men would get some common sense. Its a great message. I love ya work, ya music, ya confidences, and just your messages about being yourself. Thanks for keeping me inspired.
Janae// Nov 1, 2007 at 10:26 pm
I just want to say that I simply LOVE your music! With me being a young adult most people tell me that I don’t know or understand what I am listening to. But you have showed me the way to understand and see many different things from more than just one view. Thank you Jill!!!!
Brooke, Oklahoma City// Nov 3, 2007 at 3:33 pm
Anyone can relate to this CD beginning to end…Just wonderful!!!!
Lisa Z. Guam// Nov 3, 2007 at 9:50 pm
Crown Royal On Ice…sheer lyrical genius!!! Yeah I know one of those…(chuckle)
I absolutely adore the way you express yourself both lyrically and melodically. Your music got me through Iraq and is getting through being on a small albeit beautiful island in the Pacific oh so far away from my family and friends. When I hear your music, I don’t feel so all alone. Thank you for that!
angel,england// Nov 4, 2007 at 6:27 am

your lyrics and style of music is so real and tender..when my times are hard than any other person can imagine i put on a cd of yours and it makes me smile, you keep it so real..cant wait to see you at academy birmingham..sista to sista xx

Wow, I saw the new video, and I must say Jill Scott is the most powerful vocalist, lyricist musician I have had the pleasure of listening to. I so wish she could visit our shores SOON. I LOVE JILL SCOTT. I am yet to be dissapointed by her work. I would love to see her live. Please Come to Mandelaville.
T.Simon, Baltimore// Nov 5, 2007 at 6:24 am
I witnessed a great performance last night, MS. JILL SCOTT. The show was empowering, motivational (”Crown Royal” and “Deeper” performances) enlightening and soooo much more. She put her FOOT in every song, the dramatics for each song performance was just as I pictured it would be, placing me as an audience member in every emotion of each song. The vibe was right, Jill got her grown woman on and the band was GREAT!!! I was more than pleased with the performance. As an artist she gives the fans what they want which is the real thing- no additives, no lip-singing just a grown a#* woman who isn’t afraid to be honest, show her sexuality and her vulnerability…… as I allow ” Wanna Be Loved” to soothe my spirit and reminisce on last nights performance all I can say is she is THE REAL THING.
Khalia// Nov 5, 2007 at 4:13 pm

Bryan, Amsterdam// Nov 13, 2007 at 5:46 pm
Thanks! Thanks again for beautiful lyrics and melodies!
Each of your albums is different from the one before. Each takes time to understand so it can be enjoyed more more. Each volume I end up loving so much!
On The Real Thing I loved from the beginning “Hate On Me”, “Crown Royal”, “The Real Thing” and “My Love”. And then I started to REALLY love also “I Wanna Be Loved”.
The vibe of this song created the knowledge inside that I do wanna be loved. That I’m doing my thing and that I am basically happy. But still. I wanna be loved. Again you captured something deeper inside of me. And once again I am deeply grateful.
C ya the 23th of November in the Paradiso (Amsterdam) !!!

I fell in love with Jill and her music when I turned 12 years old. It was the year I decided to grow my relaxer out for the first time, and I saw her and her afro in the “A Long Walk” video, and I just thought, I want to be like her, she is so beautiful, and that moment gave me the complete freedom to be myself physically! I love you Jill, I am a huge fan and I love the new album!!!!!

hi jill,
i came to your shepards bush show last night and you where overwelmingly beautiful in every way. i first listened to your who is jill scott album aged about 14 and something in its vibe grabbed me though i was too young still to understand its depth and spirit. i then aged about 17 got massivly into your music and all your albums have been sensational. who is jill scott is the one for me however, every song on that album moves me deeply and its as though you are speaking from me and to me when i hear the songs. you make my wrongs feel-okay,allowed, understood. you make my sadness’s feel warm and looked after, you make life feel like magic canand does happen, you make sex sexier still and you make music meaningfull in comparison to some of the run of the mill stuff out there these days. youre lyrics are so amazingly spot on creating images in my mind, and that dream of how and where one wants / dreams to be , mentally spiritually and personally. you truely are a queen! a real womans woman… i have cried to your songs with happiness and sadness but whatever the emotion alongside, it has always felt underlyingly upbeat and serene… much love miss jill scott, please dont ever stop… i want to grow with your music more because it is deep, intelligent and wonderful, full of down to earthness and wonderfullnessxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx queenie
Tina// Dec 4, 2007 at 8:18 am
Hi Jill
I saw you last night at the Shepherds Bush Empire, and I am still speechless.
Words are not enough to describe you and your art.
You are incredible, excellent, fabulous, mind-blowing, just marvelous.
I wanted to see you again on Wednesday night, but your concert is sold out, so please come back to London again soon.
Lots of love
From Tina x

Renee E. Chicago, IL// Dec 8, 2007 at 6:03 pm
Jill SCOTT! You are so wonderful and wider and higher and totally a GOD send for millions, billions, like me who thought we were alone in our thoughts of love, life, and sensuality. Many thousands have felt this and wrote this message to you, but I truly THANK YOU for giving your beautiful, soulful, talented, blessed voice and flavor of love and life to ME!!! You make me feel greatly human, sexy and wonderful when the world might have me feeling the opposite! My daughter and I both share a deep love for you and your songs and your poetry on paper. Thank you, thank you, thank you….forever a fan and Jill Scott back-up and wanna-be-lead singer in Chicago! MUCH LOVE – Always! Renee and Janae E.

Tina W.// Dec 13, 2007 at 6:05 pm
You have no idea how much I love you!!!! I respect you, I honor you, I appreciate you. You are a breath of fresh air, a sidestep to the typical r &b. Your music speaks to so many, and to see you live—what an EXPERIENCE!!! There are not too many ’sangers’ that when they sing, each emotion is felt in every syncopated breath, the lyrics speak volumes, the music lifts you to a place that gives you chills. I am so glad for your success, and I am honored to have experienced your perfomances and been a part of your generation. You truly give me, and other women, hope, that it’s okay to ‘go through’, and come out of that funk feeling good about yourself. I can’t say it enough, but I love you Jill. Can’t wait to see you (for the 8th time) in concert in DC–and I’m going to the Lyric in B-more to get some more of that Jilly from Philly Soul!!!!

Hi Jill,
What’s up with only one show in the ATL on
2-22-08?
I have been trying since 11:30am to get some tickets (the $100.00) seats and I keep getting the scrub seats in the nosebleed area.
Please add another show or open up some good tickets. Please?! My mother and I are trying to hear you do your thang!!!
Thanks.
Dahlia, Atlanta// Dec 14, 2007 at 2:28 pm
Well Miss Jill, I got me some tickets to the second show!!! 5 in all.
My mother and I are in the Orchestra level.
Five minutes later I went back to get some tickets for three of my coworkers and had to get tickets in the first section in the Balcony area.
Thank you once again.
I am SO excited.
Vinola Stalllings, California// Dec 15, 2007 at 5:46 pm
Hello, Ms. Scott
I can’t share a comment about love. But I can speak about your new cd- it is the bomb! You said,”Don’t be scared-come closer” ( I think that’s what you said) Girl, you are wild. Keep up the good work your music.
Sa’Toya Truss, Baltimore// Dec 15, 2007 at 10:01 pm
I am a young woman who has lost my voice in music. Growing up as a child I was dedicated to music; coming in from school, completing my homework, getting a snack, and then locking myself in my bathroom ’til bedtime with my cds and cd player. I would sing to my heart’s content. Then as I grew older I convinced myself that I would get nowhere with this love of music so I should stop spending so much time singing. I eventually did just that, I stopped singing. I would continue to sing in the school choirs in fact, I was a member of the acapella choir however, I stopped singing. I lost MY voice. I listen to you and I hear you and I see you and you are all that I wish to be as a singer, as a musician, as a woman. I am enthralled by your Queendom! *smile* There are only three female artists who have influenced me strongly and positively–Aaliyah, Alicia Keys, and yourself. The one thing that has influenced me most is your spirit. You are beautiful in the true sense of the word (beauty refers to the complete self in my opinion). If I could be a mentee of any woman it would surely be you. A mentee because I would love to be in your presence and just get a small chance to learn from you musically and as a woman. I know that all dreams do not come true yet I do believe that you will influence me in one way or another whether in the physical or through the speakers of my cd player. Thank you Jill Scott for being you.

My name is Sean, and I would love to sing with you i know this is crazy, but you wont be disappointed I’m not sure where to send you a demo of me singing, but I’ll find a way my number is 313-595-0488 I cant wait to make this happen, I’m just sorry I took so long to write .
I’ve Been Robbed, Dallas// Dec 16, 2007 at 1:48 am
Jill – Ticketmaster robbed me!!!! I purchased my tix for your much anticipated Feb. ‘08 show yesterday, at 10am sharp, and they pulled the old “bait and switch” on me. The rep (Dante) told me I had front and center, but turns out he lied and my seats are elsewhere. My euphoria quickly turned to a nightmare beyond my wildest. After admitting their mistake, the supervisor (Nedia) offered me a refund or even worse seats. No Fair. HELP!!!
- Your Saddest Fan Ever
Lisa, Baltimore// Dec 16, 2007 at 8:32 am

You are indeed a DELIGHT to listen to. Your lyrics are tasteful, relational, as well as the good sounds of your phenomenal music.

Hello Ms. Scott! I plan to see you in concert during the duration of your tour. When and where I have not figured that out yet, but I DO KNOW that I WILL see and experience you because I am sure it will be an experience and I just won’t be SEEING you! *smile*
I am soo excited however, I would also like to know or at least let you know that your fans… well, I would REALLY enjoy experiencing you in a more intimate venue. I know it is selfish of me however, I would love to be up close and personal (in a sense). I am inspired and motivated by you and would love to experience the mere vibrations from you and not necessarily the speakers. I hope you understand where I am coming from, a fan of beautiful music, a fan of beautiful you.
Take care Ms. Scott and I’ll see you in late February or early March!

CB – Hampton, Va.// Dec 26, 2007 at 11:39 pm
Hello. I want to say that I’m a HUGE fan of you and your music; your spirit, your (public) demeanor, I just dig me some Jill Scott. I do have a question; if it’s not too intrusive. I’m just curious on your religious beliefs. I should actually just ask for clarification. Are you a 5-percenter? The ones who believe the the Black man and Black woman are gods? This as opposed to believing in the one true God? I was listening to a ministry DVD, and your name popped up concerning the “5-percenters” (along with a couple of others); thus the questions just aksed. If I don’t get a response…understood. I am interested as to what it would be, however. If it’s the case, I have to get rid of your CD’s; I just don’t want the risk of tainting my spirit via your lyrics, your music.

I love “Crown Royal”!! That song is AWESOME!! You are a beautiful artist.
Phyllis Nash, CA// Dec 28, 2007 at 11:33 pm
Jill,
I listened to your video and your new cd and I must say that I was surprised to hear about the negativity that you mentioned. As you can see, I am probably one of the people who doesn’t listen to the negative things that are said about people. I feel that you did a wonderful job on your new cd as well as the other cds before this one. So sorry to hear that you are single now, but I understand that one. I’ve been there before, but as you know, things will get better.
Hang in there,
all of my love,
Phyllis

Jill,
There are not enough words and sounds which describe your gifts. I want to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to God for your free spirit in words and song. I will see you soon during the upcoming tour in the Northeast coast. I have not missed one of your concerts, and I would not plan on it either.
P.S. Please communicate with your fellow musician fans, will there ever be a Hal-Leonard publication of your music? Some artists have their work in sheet music form, but, they cannot at all be you – but, I would sure love to play some of the chords that I hear in your music.
Thanks for the expressions of all emotions in your work. I AM A CAPITAL FAN OF YOURS, THE REAL THING!.
- Mark Lee

I love Jill and I am so happy with her career. She’s such a dynamic woman. I had a chance to meet her in person when we visited Tyler Perry Studios. She is definitely “more real” than you can imagine. She’s also extremely humble as well as talented. I see that she will be here in Charlotte on March 1st. I hate that she will be playing at Ovens Auditorium instead of the BobCats Arena (like Beyonce and R Kelly) but I understand since that is the Saturday of the CIAA tournament. I still wish they could work something out in the scheduling for her to perform that night since the tournament championship is usually played during the day. Either way I’m excited because the concert will probably sell out. EVERYBODY will be in town for CIAA. It would be great if she could rearrange her other dates so that she could do multiple shows in Charlotte. With so many people in town that week, every single show would sell out. I look forward to meeting you again sweetie. If any of your camp reads this we are having a “Celebrity Only” VIP set up for that week at the Luxurious Rustic Martini on Tryon & 9th St., so feel free to stop by, and let me know when we can do our cover interview!!

Thanks for the latest. It’s how I feel.
Anthony Newman (Philly)// Jan 17, 2008 at 10:32 am
Dear Jill :
I think it repeatative to tell you that I am your biggest and #1 fan so I will be diverse in my own description of how you inspire me. I am truely a disciple in every since of the word (spoken word) and I wish to break bread with the world, but first I must start in my own community.
Since Philly is your stomping ground and I am a new resident to the metropolitan, I wanted to know where are some good places to start that would support a brother such as myself?
I believe being a fan is not enough but being a disciple, carrying the word that God has given to each of us makes us on one accord, therefore I would like to help in my own way of feeding the masses. Can you pass me some wisdom and break bread with me so that I can pass it on?
One hand open to give and the other open to receive let God’s love that is endoewd through you flow now to me…
Much Love
Anthony Newman

Jill, I absolutely love your music. You are one of the most influential artists I’ve ever had a chance to listen to. I am also an artist and I am planning on singing Golden at the Relay For Life event my school will be holding in April. The only problem is that I can’t find the chords or sheet music for the song ANYWHERE. I’ve been searching for a week now. Could you please send me a link or something where I can buy the music for the band. Pleeeeeeeaaaaaase! I would appreciate it soooo much. Love you and I hope our paths cross one day. You are truly an amazing woman.

Jill,
I LUUUV The Real Thing!!!! You hit home with all of your songs. I can definately relate to them one way or another. Thank you for putting it out there!
Rick Hagans// Feb 5, 2008 at 6:54 pm
Jill, I don’t want your riches, nor am I seeking to share in your hard earned yet much deserved spotlight. I would just love to be in your element for just a moment at anytime. You are to me what exemplifies the true meaning of a complete woman. There should be a recall of every dictionary ever printed. At the completion of this act, there should be a simple revision of the word defined, “Beauty”. Simply put…BEAUTY,definition-Jilll Scott.
Kellie, Cleveland Hts OH// Feb 5, 2008 at 10:31 pm

welcome to Oakland
i’m an engineer who does 3 minutes of thought-provoking (self-proclaimed) pieces on the mic during Mouth-Off Wednesday; a hot water cornbread production by scorpio blues, hosted by prentice powell,
8-10pm Wednesday at Air Lounge, 9th St and Washington in old Oakland.
i have a piece that involves an ol’ man (acted by me) as a witness to a verbal interaction between a 6yr old son and his mother. the mother is called to share her story.
CRAZY as this sounds, should you be willing and able, i invite you to represent the role of the young mother, 6 feb 2008.
Clarence Rickett, Birmingham, AL// Feb 6, 2008 at 4:03 am

Ms. Jill,
You Are! I have to listen to you on a daily basis. Your energy lies in your music and its a big help to a single mom with 3 kids and trying to making it in this harsh reality. Thank you for letting the world know how real it is! And thanks for the RAW and uncut sounds we strong women need to hear down hear in the south.
Beesy (ATL)// Feb 6, 2008 at 12:25 pm
Jill has got it all!!! Only dissappointment I have ever had was when I traveled all the way to the 2002 St. Lucia Jazz Festival and upon arriving and going to the hotel bar found out Jill would not be attending. She was the determining factor as to why i finally went. Still enjoyed myself. Jill is a total inspiration and enjoy all of her creativeness. A truly talented woman and she is a blessing to the music industry.
Looking forward to the performance at the FOX!!!
Tracey Weatherspoon// Feb 6, 2008 at 5:41 pm
Jill Appeal
(A dedication to the lyricist/poet/vocalist, Jill Scott)
You’re my motivation and inspiration
You’ve coerced me to steer clear of self-deprivation
I’ve envisioned myself in a more rewarding situation
As you verse me with lyrics of love dedication
I’ve heard the expression to live out your eulogy
In the home going, your life’s story is another’s philosophy
You’ve serenaded this in a song possibly?
Hence, my interpretation of your ideology
You said, of love make no mockery!
It occurred to me through your sultry inflections
And, savvy expressions – I see my reflection
I too a hopeless romantic,
Have seen my days of demeaning antics
I secured my eyeglasses
My vision was hazed with thick molasses
I assumed the role of mechanical wife –
Succumbed to a life of struggle and strife!
I stretched out my arms and hugged myself!
I sang myself a song in the key of C – treble clef
I now press the play-button to the song of life
I have no use for rewind with God’s angels in flight
Around me they encircle and form a ring above my head
They’re my alarm clock in the morning – at night they tuck me in bed,
After a bible verse of God’s love for me I read
Get thee behind me satan, I said!
My life was saved when to God Jesus plead!
The battle is won – Jesus stood in my stead!
Now of my life He is the Head!
In me Jesus lives – I’m no longer dead!
I’m protected, covered and spiritually fed
Always be steadfast to strum your beautiful vocal cords
Minister, Minister to the world; for Great is your reward!
You’re moving bruised souls to jump aboard
As your songs dispel pain we hoard
Thank you; thank you for your spiritual gift
And for the many broken spirits you lift, lift and Lift!
Vow that from a purpose-driven life you’ll never drift!
Not yet has the world been taken by my healing smile
My name and number aren’t on Kirk Franklin’s speed-dial
I’ve yet been blessed to accompany a record label
But to move an audience to praise – I’m able
I’m not a video-honey with my inhibitions running wild
I aspire to lead a spiritual life in eternal exile
Awaiting the day I’m caught-up with God and awarded my crown
There are no words left to say or need to further expound!
Your spiritual sis,
Tracey Weatherspoon

Hello Jill.My name is SokolGeorgiev.i’m a songwriter..Please go to my profile and check out two of my songs for you.They called:”Something special”.This song has two lyrics(”Finally”and”Another you” I will be happy if you like these songs!
If you sing them ,they will be sound just like i imagine.
Music-Sokol Georgiev(Socky)
Lyrics-Julien Angelov
Something special
Canto 1.
Fall in love,fall in love.
It’s so strange i’ve never lost my mind before.
I don’t know is this wrong?
It makes me feel these things i’ve never felt before.
Bridge 1.
By the way,i’m standing awake tonight,
because thinking of you.
I don’t know how to say
how much i care.
Bridge 2.
How could i be so blind
before i met you ,how?
You have that special touch i always wanted
I found the way to love you!
Chorus
Something in your eyes
something in your smile
something in the way you kissed me
makes me feel alive!
Bridge 3.
And now i understand why everything
Is happening to me
I think the reason of my life is
to give love and being loved.
Canto 1.1
Suddenly,sudenly
I’ve being changed in someone that you need my love.
Do you know,do you know
what would be if you fall in love in lonely nights?
Bridge 1.1
In my dreams you’re comming tonight
And i will be there close to you.
I’ll say these words
You need to make you stay.
Bridge 2.2
I realy mean to tell you all my secrets now.
What is the things that somehow
makes you special
this time i know the answer:
Chorus.
Something in your eyes
Something in your smile
Something in the way you kissed me
Makes me feel alive
Jen, Miramar, FL// Feb 10, 2008 at 9:11 pm
I admire your work, your posture and position in the arts as a powerful and talented female artist. Jill I want to extend my congratulations on your nomination and I want you to know that for all that you have already accomplished and will in the future; you are winner in larger, more significant arenas than the Grammy’s. You exude an attitude of success and perseverance. You are a versatile fresh talent that continuously evolves even though you are not a newcomer on the scene. Keep doing what you do, maintain your individuality, style and finesse. I hope to one day have the pleasure of enjoying your work personally so please come visit your fans in South Florida, we need a concert too. In closing just want to say there are a lot of performers that are manufactured and continuously strive to stay in the public eye by compromising talent for commercialism. You bring so much of yourself into your work that we the fans of talent authenticity value what you bring. Keep bringing it, God has placed so much in you; give Him a chance there are no limits on destiny in Him.
To you Jill, talent extraordinaire; like a fine wine, the quality of your work gets richer with time.
God bless, now and always.

Linda, Bay Area// Feb 13, 2008 at 4:29 pm
My 5 year old daughter and I love Jill Scott. When “Golden” came out my daughter was 2, she would sing along to in the car everyday. At the of the song she’d say “play it again mommy, again mommy.” I would listen to her sing along with you for the entire car ride. So last Friday when I was leaving to see you perform in Oakland, she says what concert are you going to. I replied “Jill Scott, do you know who Jill Scott is?” Her response, “yes she sings “Golden.” ” My daughter also knows the words to “Hate on Me.”
Your performace was amazing, I loved every minute of it. I’m so sorry that you had to go through what you have been through, but at least you have your music to express how you feel. It’s so good when artists can be honest, it makes you real.

Every time I see your photo when you were about 6 years old, I think about how I use to dribble my basketball to your porch, and you use to run out and talk to me, You were my baby girl then, and you will always be my baby girl. I am coming to your concert in March, I would like to see you, if all possible. I hope and Trust your mother and G-Mom is doing well. I hope to hear from you .

You’re in love with her from the moment she steps on stage and smiles to the very last breath she breathes into the mic. This is when she finally lets loose of your senses. I mean…wow!

Jill, I really hope that you read this. My….actually, I don’t know what he is to me because we’ve broken up and haven’t formally gotten back together….”friend” and I attended your Valentine’s Day concert at the Gibson Amphitheatre. I bought the tickets for him because I knew he loves you so much. I have always admired you for the warmth and love you radiate through your smile and your voice. Well, I had no idea I would be so spritually blessed by your show and your presence. I don’t really have love from my family. I have battled depression since I was 14. I am 23 now. Basically, I was just “existing”. Your words and demeanor instilled so much confidence and joy in my heart…just from that one night. You encored 2 or 3 times…I wouldn’t have complained if we had stayed the whole night. You have awakened something that I thought was dead within my spirit….my love of writing. As a child, I was discouraged to express my feelings. My only way to release was through writing and I lost the motivation to write when I developed my depression. YOU MENDED MY HEART!! YOU HELPED ME FEEL WHOLE AGAIN!! Please don’t think I am crazy but…..I will never be able to thank you for what you have done for me. I pray I will be able to tell you in person one day. God led me to you for emotional healing. Omg…this comment is sooo long and I am sooo sorry. I love you, Jill. You are a gift to us from God.
Christopher Townsend, Alabama// Feb 17, 2008 at 5:04 pm
Jill, you are the most beautiful, most creative, gift that God has released to the world. You are not afraid to let the words flow from your own personal experiences; giving us a glimpse into your personal happiness and pain always creates your beautiful works of art. Your voice, lyrics, and artistry moves me in ways that absolutely takes my breath away. You are truly my “Great Orgasm.” Keep doing that you love, and it will be never be considered as hard work.
p.s. I’ll see you in B’ham on 03/30/08.

James Terry, Dallas// Feb 20, 2008 at 12:08 am
Hey Jill! Me and my wife saw your show in Dallas at the Nokia Theather and it was awesome. I have always been a fan of yours. Me and my wife are always listen to your music, whether its at the house or in the car. The Real Thing Tour was my first time I seen you live and you tore the place down. I have always tried to see your other shows here in Dallas, but the shows was always sold out. Now I see why. You are truely a beautiful human. Every time I go on a road trip, its a must that your albums be in the CD player, because it makes the trip that much better. When I saw you at your show your music touched me in a way I can’t explain. A poem you sang at the end of your show, opened my eyes and made me realize that there is a light in me that GOD lights every day. I just want to say thank you for music and ur winning personality. I will be at your next show here in Dallas and your next album is already waiting to join my collection. Peace.
Latrice M., Dallas, TX// Feb 20, 2008 at 7:28 am
Ms. Jill,
Oh my Gosh…I have been unable to go to sleep since last night’s Awesome performance at Nokia Theater – Dallas, TX.
I hope there are those who were there to see you perform in Dallas. My heart is filled with so much joy. I have looked in that same “mirror” and have also recognized that I too am Beautifully Human. What a wonderful appetizer to have Raheem on the show. He was great!! However, Jill will be Jill.
I am in awe of how Great a person you are. I seen your last show in 2005 at this same venue. It’s not often that an artist can top themselves but you did. I commend you Jill, your music, your passion, your soul is Genuine. You are in fact, the Real Thing.
I must say that the poem, “And I Heard,” I believe that’s what you called it, brought so much emotion. I do understand what you are saying and I hear you loud and clear. The beauty of the the band and background vocalist were amazing. You bring nastiness, love, and hope to this world.
The music industry needs you! Please don’t let it be another three years before I hear what other Revelations you have to reveal.
Your Devout Fan,
Trice

Ntsako, Johannesburg, South Africa// Feb 21, 2008 at 4:05 am
Heya
Where does one start to trully give an on-point description of how you inspire me to write bigger than I am. You seem so confident and direct with what it is that you want to say,not to the masses but to that girl that is sitting in her room, crying along with “The Fact is”, at home nursing a broken heart, or that one woman that is driving back from work and blasting “Golden” in her car as that is the one thing that she looks forward to at the end of her day. Not many can master that art and you do so effortlessly.
I trully appluad and admire you for being as you say, “The Real Thing”
P.S Bravo with the “The Real Thing” especially Crown Royal- Hope to see you here soon.

Jill. I understand what you sing and I relate to you more than you know. Music is the biggest gift given this world.
You blessings of song and lyrics are more than you can imagine. The pains and joys we feel are best released in
music. Music has always been a way of self expression for me. @ the age of 45 i haven’t came across a singer as your self who connects so perfect as you. Music and lyrics combined.

An Open Letter to My Baby’s Daddy using Anita Baker Lyrics
a.k.a: The Gospel According to Anita/Wake Up n’ Smell the Lonely, Gurl
By Grey Mariposa
Loneliness is my biggest fear
I wish the feeling would disappear
I can’t sleep at night
Coldness is creepin’ in
Ah, many days it goes unspoken
But this desire never seems to go away
I get lonely sometimes
and I’m mixed up again
Now I welcome love’s affliction
Though its symptoms I deny
Lately I find, I’m waiting by the phone
And I don’t want to be alone
Feelings won’t fade,
I won’t be neglected
I won’t be denied
I think you take for granted
I’ll always be here
Just because I love you
It doesn’t mean I won’t disappear
It’s right, it’s real, baby, it’s true
Yeah the sun and the moon revolve around only you
And the magic that you do
How could I be blue, not around you
Why’d you tell me this?
Were you looking for my reaction?
what do you need to know?
You do not have to prove to me
You’re beautiful to strangers
Your answer begging my question
It seems I left you too late to ask
Was this really your intention
From the start
The nights you left me are empty, baby
As for the answer, they changed the past
I tried to let you explain your change of heart
How could you change your mind
I believed that love would stay in my heart
Now it’s torn all apart
It’s gone away, I can’t stay, I’ve got to say
I don`t believe that you could do me this way
This heart of mine seldom lies, you see.
It’s often said you don’t care for me no more.
You took so long, how could you lead me on,
Left me wondering where and how we went wrong
When did it start to rain
How did things get so strange
When did it go astray
‘Cause you don’t love or want me
Sometimes I think that you don’t know me
Well you don’t hear me, you don’t feel me
Sometimes I think that you don’t see me
Everybody say that I got to be a fool
I got to be crazy for lovin’ you
And I’m starting to wonder if there is truth in what they say
Days you gave me were numbered
And as a rule they were hard to take
All it took was the number of a fool
Rules were made to be broken
So many hearts break the some way too, aw baby
I said that you ain’t no exception to the rule, yes sir
Sometimes you wanna cry, sometimes you play the fool
Hold on a little longer
Try to be a little stronger
I know the kind of pain you offer
Baby, I’ve felt your kind of pain before
Change your mind like revolving doors
Change your women like you change your clothes
I don’t understand your thinking
Don’t know why you do the things you do
Break my heart, and disregard my feelings
Breaking hearts’ some kind of game to you
Thoughts and mellow memories
Of once upon a time
Slowly creepin’ on me
And they linger on my mind
Turning back the hands of time
Holding on to misty memories
Chasing shadows through the night
Trying to find my happy ending
Only images survive
Lonely spirits seem to whisper in the wind
It’s a silent song that’s never meant to be
Since the dawn of time the mystery never ends
Flashbacks of the times we’ve had
Some made us laugh some made us sad
We used to break up to make up
Thoughts and mellow memories
Of once upon a time
Slowly creepin’ on me
And they linger on my mind
I can remember stories, those things my mother said
She told me fairy tales, before I went to bed
She spoke of happy endings, then tucked me in real tight
She turned my night light on, and kissed my face good night
My mind would fill with visions, of perfect paradise
She told me everything, she said he’d be so nice
He’d ride up on his horse and, take me away one night
I’d be so happy with him, we’d ride clean out of sight
She never said that we would, curse, cry and scream and lie
She never said that maybe, someday he’d say goodbye
The story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-uh
No, uh-huh-mmm-mmm
She spoke about happy endings, of stories not like this
She said he’d slay all dragons, defeat the evil prince
She said he’d come to save me, swim through the stormy seas
I’d understand the story, it would be good for me
We used to laugh
Now all I do is cry
You use to make me happy
Now you don’t even try
You’re hurting me, yeah
You’re doing me wrong
I can see it in your eyes
Soon you’re gonna be gone
And I know I’m gonna miss you
‘Cause I’ve been down too long
And there will be no more tears for you
Gonna be no more crying now
Gonna be no more tears for you
See my eyes have run dry
And there’s no more tears
From crying though the night
Gonna gather up, gather up my feelings
And I know I should be crying
But instead I’m slowly dying
And you, you keep doing me wrong
Ain’t nobody cryin’
Dry, my eyes
Lord knows it’s gonna be fine
It’s gonna be alright after a while
I’m gonna be alright
Lord knows I don’t need you no more, baby
I’m gonna make it on my own
You never came to save me, you let me stand alone
Out in the wilderness, alone in the cold
My story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-yes
Logic prevail
I don’t believe in fairy tales
What’s wrong, wrong with you
If you’re the man I hear you say you are
I don’t quite understand why loving me is so hard
Your love never changes
It’s like a picture in a frame, and it remains the same
From beginging to end 365 days of the year
…same ol’ love
LaJocelyn Walker// Feb 25, 2008 at 12:49 pm
Jill,
Your warmth, depth, knowledge and compassion has kept me listening for many years now. I have never popped in one of your cd’s and been disappointed. Your vibe keeps me safely hidden, yet exposed to all my inner emotions. You make it all right to feel whatever, whenever, however. I can’t wait till you appear here in Memphis, TN. I’m certain the live performance will further entrance me and strengthen me as the black queen the (WE) are…..

Ms. Scott,
Thank you for an awesome concert! You love your audience, your talent, and the almighty God. I had a wonderful time. I love when you sing opera. The time that you spent to talk to us (audience)was very motivational, inspiring, and just truly needed. I would like to know more information about the foundation you took a brief moment to mention. I was raised in Philly and I would like to participate and inform others. I can’t sleep. I just keep thinking about the concert. I had a ball at the Lyric last night!!! I was so grateful how you came out several times to show your love for us. That last song was very touching…thank you so much.
Ladrea James, ATL// Feb 28, 2008 at 11:08 am
Jill -
I admire your bravery and courage to step out and speak of your pain and heart-ache. It is very inspirational and encourages one to keep pushing. I love and appreciate all of your expressions through music and poetry. You are my true hero and role model.
Thank You.
JB, Florida// Feb 28, 2008 at 10:11 pm
I love your music! Your Music, your voice, is so refreshing because it’s real. I want to say you’re amazing but I feel that doesn’t do you justice. So please just keep blessing us with your gift!

Julia Rodgers// Mar 1, 2008 at 12:36 pm
Hi Jill,
I want to start off by saying that I love you and your music. I discovered you during a ruff preiod in my life when I was separated from my husband for about one year!!
You have no idea how much your words were a inspiration to me to move past the hurt to a healing place.
I played your CD so much the kids groaned each to they heared it.LOL.
I am happy to report that since that time we have reunited and have planned to renew our vows to each other, our family, our love, and love of life itself. To grasp each moment like a man in quick sand!!!
If i could have one wish it would be that you would be present on our “wedding day” to witness our renewal.
If you could sing for us I could die without regret.
Anyway our wedding is in July 26,2008 In CT
Please contact me for detail.
Mashli (USA)// Mar 1, 2008 at 3:55 pm

Each one has a touching message. Keep it up! Don’t give up ’cause I know you are changing lives, and will always be no matter what. God bless you girl! Love ya forever!

Jill you did your thing last night in Greensboro, 3/2/08. I truly enjoyed your show. Everything that you’ve been through, and spoke on, I’ve gone through, as well. It is so easy to relate to you through your music. Your music touches my soul. In closing, my prayers go out to you for continued success and to please keep sharing the gift that GOD has given yunto you, Jill’s Music. Always Keep Living, Laughing and Loving, I do.

Keith, IL// Mar 5, 2008 at 8:03 am
I want to thank you, not only for your music and poetry, but for playing the part of Sheila in “Why did I get Married?” Sheila showed me the type of woman that I am looking for, someone who cares, who is loving, who is nuturing. It’s just so hard for us good black men to find good women, especially us younger men, (I’m 24) and watching the movie made me disgusted because those men who get good women don’t know how to take care off them and us good guys miss out. Thus, i wait. If i had a chance with you, I know I’d take it. I am also a poet like you and my twin brother and I just published a book called Languages of the Heart. You should check it out. God bless and keep in touch.
Corey, Detroit MI// Mar 5, 2008 at 1:17 pm
I LOVE everything you write! I can relate to a lot of your songs. Oh and I don’t know how many of your fans hae told you this ( I can’t imagine me being the first), but I think you are very beautiful…no I’m sorry let me be honest. You are SOOOOOoooooo FINE and I hope you stay that perfect size forever. Keep doing what you do.

Hi Jill,
I attended my first “Jill Scott” concert at the NJPAC, and I had the best time ever. I felt totally connected during the entire preformance, it was as if Jill was singing only to me and everyone else just happened to be there. I would come see you again, again and again whenever you’re in the area.
PS: Will there be another live album??? )
Musically connected,
Jt
Brandon Paterson, NJ// Mar 7, 2008 at 10:20 am
I bought tickets to see the March 6 show at NJPAC in Newark, NJ and I had a great time!!!! You sang my favorites Come See Me, Whenever You’re Around, Wanna Be Loved, Fact Is. I really enjoyed the show. The band and background vocalist were awesome!!!! This was the 3rd time that I’ve seen you perform live( NJPAC Mar. 2001, Suger Water Festival NJ 2005, and yesterday) and each time gets better and better. Keep it up! Luv ya
Vickie Scott// Mar 7, 2008 at 10:48 am
Jill,
This is your Aunt Vickie again reaching out to you. No matter what, you’re my niece till the day I die. My mother, your grandmother passed away and you weren’t there! You’re a Scott and need to put aside all the negative talk that have been put into your ears and come to find your roots. You’re a Scott and have the same blood. We don’t want your money we have our own houses, cars and jewlery. We just want you to be part of the Scott’s family and get to know us, you just might be surprise. You speak of family often and we don’t understand why you don’t reach out to the Scott’s. We love you anyway! God forgave our sins, why can’t you forgive your father. Shame on you! You have some beautifuly cousins that are your peers and they don’t understand why you don’t get to know them. You also have two beautiful half sisters you should get to know. They speak of you often and don’t understand why you ignore them. “How can you wake up in the morning with a smile on your face” Please call me.
856-627-0367. Love you Your Aunt Vickie

That song needs to be recorded and distributed immediately. Greensboro will NEVER be able to forget that performance. That sound was beyond amazing. And you definitely work with an awesome group of people. Much, much, much love to you, and most assuredly much respect.

Your music has uplifted me, relaxed my mind, and comforted my soul in the best and worst of times. You are a gem to the industry. I was blessed to see you in concert when you came to Philly in 05 at the Tower (Upper Darby) I almost threw my shoe at you,(laugh) and yes from the balcony!!! Jill keep doing what you do, cause I’ll always be listening.

All I can ask for you to do is continue to make great music. I aslo want to add one more thing. You did a fabolus job on Why Did I Get Married!

Dear Jill,
I enjoy listening to your music and I admire how you turn your poetry into songs and real music. I am a student majoring in biology pre-med. at Alabama State University however I have always been musically inclined (singing) and I write poetry in my spare time. I want to get into song writing and I was wondering if you had any pointers, tips, or words of advice on how to turn your poetry into lyrics for a song. I know you dont know me from Eve but I would greatly appreciate words of wisdom. Many blessings and much love to you.

Jill, your words and your voice always warm my soul. Ever since I heard “Long walk” I was hooked. Each of your albums represent a different period of my life; I look back to each album and I smile as I remember whenever I was down I played your music and it brought me back on up. Between being single to the rocky road of marriage you music keeps me rolling. You have such a gift and I thank you for sharing it!
Much love, Karen
LaDora// Mar 24, 2008 at 1:37 pm
Everything that you’ve every made, done, composed, whatever I’ve absolutely loved because it was two hundred and fifty percent REAL! I love that and I love your music. My favorite piece of yours would have to be The Thickness. Growing up, I experience everything in the poem, not until I got older is when I started to see the importance of my hips and breast. It is not just something to explore during sexual acts and exploited in music video. But it is beautiful and precious thing that God gave women to nourish and carry our children. Yet when you have young girls mature physically before time, there becomes confusion on how she should carry this new development. And because we have the television rasing our kids, girls expose themselves improperly. Like you said, I know, I’ve been there, done that, wrote the book, and bought the t-shirt. And I live down south, men down here love meat on their women’s bones. So I’ve been experiencing this for a long time…shamefully.
A lot of times when I listen to your music I turn to the radio and say “JILL STOP READING MY MIND!” lol. I haven see you in concert YET, but I will as soon as I get some extra cash and a concert is a little closer to my location. But I just wanted to say JILL…keep doing what you do best. And nevermind what people say and do to you, keep your head up. You are the best…comparable to all the greatest, Billie, Etta, and Mya Angelo.
You should do a contest for a fan to meet you in person. I would love to be that one to win!

I went to see Jill Scott in concert on Sunday, March 23, 2008 in Chicago. When I tell you that was the best concert I have ever attended in my life. I love music, so I attend concerts all the time. But, I must say that Jill Scott is such a professional, I can appreciate the fact that she gave us a continual musical experince. It was great. I love her music and I appreciate that she is so humble and down to earth. Thank you Jill Scott for bringing us your gift. God bless and continued success. Stay encouraged.

I am a writer with The Temple News, the college newspaper at Temple University. With her current tour and considering she attended Temple, we’d like to do a profile of Ms. Scott, but I am having difficulty finding who is her publicist. Please contact me.

I saw you last night and you were AMAZING, AWESOME, TREMENDOUS, SPENDID, BREATHTAKING, AND AWE-INSPIRING. Truly you are a gift from the master, and he has given you a wonderful gift that you use so effortlessly. I just want to say thank you for sharing yourself me. You helped me in ways you couldn’t imagine. All your art (music) helps me. I’ve been a fan for day one since I head exclusively (the first thing I ever heard from you), and will be one until I die! Continue to be blessed Jilly from Philly! Peace!
Rhonda Harris, Arkansas// Mar 29, 2008 at 12:33 pm
Wow! Your words have been so inspirational in my life alone. I listen to you when I drive to work and it motivates me to have a good day. Everything you write is so real. Thank you for blessing my ears and mind. Continue to be blessed.

My boyfriend and I, are semi-long distance relationship. Once I heard Crown Roayl! That became our song. When I miss him, I’ll send him the lyrics. You’re hands on my hips, pull me right back to you. You’re in so deep, I’m breathing for you….. just to get him going. Let him know what’s waiting for him. Or he’ll be like have my Crown Royal on Ice when I get there. I already know the deal.
Rae, Memphis, TN// Apr 1, 2008 at 2:05 am
Jill, LOVE your music. I enjoyed your concert at the Orpheum – a memorable experience. Keep doin’ the dang thang…
Adam Swierzewicz, Poland// Apr 3, 2008 at 4:34 am
sometimes I wonder, do U know, how far your music goes? I live far, far away and I fell in love since I’ve listen your CD! I started with “Beautifully Human”, then got a (neverending) crush for “Who Is Jill Scott” which 4 now is my fav. and then I just went to music store and bought them. “The Real Thing” I’ve order from UK, so I would have this earlier than others in my country.
and now they say U will come to Poland in July and it makes me soooooo happy – I can’t even express it, how I feel since yesterday! it’s like one of my biggest dreams came true!
U gave me so much joy, so much wisdom and love with your music – you’re 4 real the REAL THING – your art can’t be overappreciated!
See U soon, I hope.
U’re the Queen of my heart.
do U really read all of these? It would b nice to know. And short mssg from U would be like a blessing.
God bless U, Jill!

Tomecki(meek) Warren, Fort Worth TX// Apr 4, 2008 at 7:57 am
Girl, you know you are sure enuff bad!! Your music and your demeanor are explosive. Keep it coming- much love and God’s grace on you.
I fell in love with the man that played “long walk” to me back in 2002 and “the way” quickly became our song. We danced to it at our wedding. We got to see you in the UK and that was great. Now our 3 year old Son asks for the “whatever” song. I think he enjoys being able to say whatever as I usually don’t let him!
Please come out to Hawaii.
Vonetta, ChiCity// Apr 5, 2008 at 7:37 pm

I truly love this woman and I am searching for her book all over and the sad part of it all is it can not be found here in RSA. where how and when? is my question.

Jill Scott is my ture inspiration, I am an up and coming poet and when I listen to any of her tracks then I just flow….I am starting my own personal Jill Collection and it is a joy searching for her muso but my dream is to have her book on poetry by my b-day…and it is August 7th it is a gift I will get myself anyday. if any of you can tell me where I can find it here in RSA will I go out and find it…

I pay the electric bill and see him

Yah I know we have never met personally (maybe spirits touched) Who is Jill Scott?(that person you break your kneck to go see (when she performs) like a favorite cousin at a family reunion) Beautiful Human (Even though she sweating giving her all singing under the hot lights she gives us one of those beautiful smiles) The Real Thing(lyrics that are personal,uplifting,thought provoking,W.O.R.D.S ….(woman of real desire speaks)
Ms D, Atlanta// Apr 25, 2008 at 3:16 pm
Hello Jill,
(Super 911!)
I love your latest album. Love it!
Though many of the songs enhanced the romance in my “True Love” relationship, it has now turned to a dark side. I am having a hard time learning how to fall out of love; because I am no longer loved. It’s tearing me apart. Can you help me with any motivational or inspirational experiences that have helped you to hurdle this type of mountain? Your thoughts are so pure and to the point. Please help…..Ms D

Hello Jill,
Let me first say, that your music and your poetry books have helped me through some rough times. You are a positive peace of me.

Terence and April Reddick, his wife has made dresses for you and both Erykah Badu. Im disappointed that I didnt get the opportunity to attend your concert while you were at the The Grove in Anaheim, it was my birthday month (February 28) Let me know when I can get to the next concert or poetry reading . I would love to just sit and chat and show you my own poems that I write. Ive been published twice.

Jill, thank you for “The Real Thing”. It was my Mother’s Day gift to myself and it’s comforting to know that there’s someone else going through what I’m going through. I got divorced last year and couldn’t be happier. Your CD was the icing on my cake! Thank you and may God continue to bless your present and future endeavors.

Thank goodness you are so willing to share it. It was lovely meeting you on vacation. You were right, the ATV’s were rough, but great! Scott and I are thinking of coming to Houston to see you perform in June. I know it is a reach, but we would love to come back stage and say HELLO! You make me smile, still! Deanna

Ms. Kitty, Indianapolis// May 17, 2008 at 12:54 pm
Ms. Scott,
My prayer is that this message reaches you one day. I am shedding tears of mixed emotions right now and needed to share (if you don’t mind).
Today, I completed a 5k Run/Walk as my 12 year old daughter watched. This isn’t my first event but it is the first time a family member was present to root me on. What is more special about this event, I finished the race! This is special because I weigh 205 lbs as of this morning. I have battled with weight ever since my daughter was born and losing every year.
How and why does this pertain to you? You my friend were in my ear from the beginning of the race to the end. Your anthems, “Golden” and “Hate on Me” rang loud and clear when I wanted to stop. For a little bit of sass, “Crown Royal” was played towards the end.
Thank you so much for gifting us with just the right words and melodies for every occasion of life. I will keep my ears open for more spiritual food as you continue to share.
-Ms. Kitty

As surely as I send this message of love the tears of love and loss fill my eyes. Sista’ your words touch the souls of women around the world and and as you tell the stories that touch and reflect the experiences of the young and old we know that we are all the same though we are all different. Keep touching hearts, speak from your soul and tell the stories that we all know so well. Though I can not relate to every lyric those that I can, fill me we joy, pain, love and freedom keep going and do not stop!

Ms. Scott, We are a small film company. We would like to submit a proposal to you about making movies. We have several great scripts and better concepts. We also have accomplished an indie film, so we know the process. WE feel that this would be a very nice situation for both parties. I wanted to submit the proposal and letters to your agent, but I can not find your contact information on IMDB and I tried emailing you on the Hidden Beach site.
On another note, I have seen you in concert twice (Vegas and Houston), you are a great artist, a real artist with real words.

Thank you, Ms. Scott (I’d really love to call you Jill but we’re not friends in real life, but if you were here I’d gladly offer you a cup of tea).
I have loved your work since A Long Walk came out, and just want to say how we appreciate your amazing talent. Thank you for sharing it with the world. You deserve every success.
The power in the world is from the creators – and you do exactly that. You create. And it affect my life – you calm my commute on my iPod, you entertain my guests at dinner parties, and you even help when I’m doing the chores.
Thank you. Just thank you. I hope you always feel golden, because you really are.
Best regards,

Ebony T., VA// Jun 21, 2008 at 2:39 pm
I would first like to say thank you and God Bless you for all of your many accomplishments and many more to come. I truly appreciate that you are not an artist that made it big, but did not forget about the struggles you endured when you were round the way Jill and not Superstar Jill. But then again, you are still just round the way Jill.
I heard you on the Steve HArvey Morning show a few weeks ago and could barely get any work done as you were talking about the new Butterfly line. Me not only being a DIVA size woman, but also very top heavy I could not wait until the bras wnet public. I could care less about the cost, but the fit you were talking about is exactly what I am looking for. I have been top heavy my entire life, but in the last year it has just been painful. I could not wait until June 1. To my surprise the bras only go up to a DDD. Is there a chance the sizes will go up? I where a J. Yeah it hurt my heart when I heard it too. It is hard to find a bra that fits me comfortably, but also has good support. I can not wait to get home at nights and let loose.
I wish I could have the Butterfly experience. I pray that with the success of the line, will come a wider range of sizes and colors. When I heard you talking about the colors you are looking to introduce I got excited because noone thinks to make a beautiful bras in the larger sizes.
Again much success in all of your endeavors.
Much love,
Ebony T.
Roxanne North Carolina// Jun 22, 2008 at 2:23 pm

Kai , Union City GA// Jun 25, 2008 at 3:11 pm
Greetings
This message is for Marketing and or the Sales departments. I visited an Ashley Stewart location near me, which out of the 15 locations you have in Georgia 8 of them are within my range of travel. While in the store I inquired about the Butterfly Bra and was extremely sadden to hear that out of 15 stores in the state, ONLY one(1) location is performing fittings and that one location is the Stone Crest location, not a very convenient location for myself and my friends.
Ok I’ve worked in retail so I know a lot goes into which store will sell certain items, but a “FITTING”, come on you guys have got to do better than that. I don’t even go to the side of town, and neither does any of my friends. Even the sales girl was surprised at the decision made to only have the fitting at one store. For consideration of sales, we are asking you to train other style associates to perform a bra fitting, I worked at Lane Bryant and it’s not hard to do a fitting. I will also be sending this to Jill Scott’s people to let them know how you all are NOT giving this bra the most opportunity it could possibly have. If we are going to put it out there for plus-size, we need to at least make it an equal playing field, and Stone Crest isn’t it.
Thanks for your time
Maliq Walker// Jun 26, 2008 at 7:16 am
Jill,
I want to say to you that I am completely CRAZY for you. Not like I belong in an asylum CRAZY babe ( had to through that in there)!! You are beautiful in every way. You voice, Your face, Your body and your personality. I appreciate you candor when you are performing. When I heard you tell your story I wanted to run up on stage and drop to my knees and tell you that i would cherish you and make you #1 which you completely deserve!! I wish that I could get to really know you as a person and not just as a performer. This may sound strange, but since you first came out I have been trying to meet you. I am not a stalker kind of meet you, i just want to know the real Jill!! I want to congratulate you on your new marriage. I would be lying to say i wasnt jealous. I knew that a queen such as yourself would not be alone long. You have millions of people who love you, I am glad that you are looking and sounding happy again. It makes me happy when i hear it in your music!! Please take this as a tribute to your wonderful soul and nature and if you ever…… I mean ever……. are needing to chat with someone please send me a line!!!
Stay beautiful from one of you greatest fans!!!!
PEACE!
Mel B. in Hampton, VA// Jun 27, 2008 at 12:00 pm
I, I shiver when ever I listen to your voice. Your songs are like drugs, I can’t miss a dose. Sure I know I am not the subject of any of the words that you use, but I can’t help but imagine. The emotion you convey is special, please don’t ever stop doing what you do.
See you Saturday night at the Jazz Fest! Love ya Jill….
PEACE
Michael, Chicago// Jun 27, 2008 at 10:45 pm
I am continually moved by Jill, from the lyrics, the melodies, the voice and the astounding beauty. I have failed each time to see her in concert and for whatever reason I feel its not meant for me to see her in person. Its not the money, but I can’t ever seem to align myself with the follow-through to ever go. I can’t figure it out but since listening to her music, and seeing her hit Oprah on her first time, I’ve just been pleased with just watching her flourish. I’m sure she’s got a bunch of crazies out there (me included) who feel like they relate to her intimatly and so fourth. However, she leaves me breathless in so many ways… and I’m gay… it’s not her physical, (or is it???) its something I cant even make sense of. Nonetheless, continue to impact the world as you have, and spread the warmth your music and gracefulness inspires. One day maybe I will be blessed enough to be in her presence.

Jill Scott is the best. She is a breath of fresh air. I just so inspired. Don’t stop being you. You are someone I look up to.
“C”, houston// Jun 29, 2008 at 9:39 pm
i just wanted to say thank you for “Beautifully Human.” The words you wrote on that album brought me to and through a season in my life that I will simply never forget. While listening to this CD I fell in love, a love that although my situation has changed, still lives on. Your words allowed me to be introduced to someone that I already knew, but in a whole new way. I know you probably hear it all the time, but thank you, thank you for bringing this eternal love into my life, and allowing me to fall in love all over again each time I hear it.

Hi Jill or whomever is receiving my love.
I’m writing as I used to be in a band called Dharma with Pete Kuzma. He’s the most amazing musician I’ve shared a stage with as well as recorded with in the studio in Philly. It’s great to see he’s sharing so much success with Jill Scott and numerous other famous musicians.
Please tell him I said HI as we lost touch in 95 when I graduated college, left the band, got married, started a family, moved into a house and now play drums in cover bands. It’s all good! The love of music heals the soul. Much love..Mike

Dear Ms.Jill Scott
My name is Britney Johnson I attend Johnson C. Smith University in Charlotte, N.C. I am a Pre Med Student. I want to become a medical “DOCTOR” specializing in Pediatrics. This would be my second semester at the university. I am writing you because I saw you on t.v. one morning promoting your new bra line, you also talked about the blue’s babe scholarship fund that helps with money for school. I am in need of help to pay for my tuition this fall 2008. I was awarded scholarship money, but the amount does not cover the total cost. I am six thousand dollars away from the total cost. Can your blue’s babe schloarship fund assist me with the cost of my education. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Britney N. Johnson

To: Jill Scott
You are inspiration to me . Your positive insight to life is beyond words. Your inter beauty shows whenever you express words in poem and song. Your songs gave me strength while I was goin through some hard times. And i admire you for being strong during your private trials.
JILL SCOTT LIVE LONG AND STRONG.
THE TRUE QUEEN OF THE NILE
Chelle, USA// Jul 20, 2008 at 1:31 am
My heart goes to the pain that was present in your heart at the birth of this project. But I am thankful for the soundtrack to my own experience. I just watched your interview…wow.
I recently heard the term “dirty 30’s”. It was ment to reference sexual freedom. When I think of my life and the real life that happens for many, I liken the term to the harsh and dirty realities that come during ones 30’s.
The last live show that I saw was yours. I was about 8 months pregnant. At the time I was still hopeful that things would work out. Now I am living in the blessing that my, now 3 year old, was destined. There was nothing else about that relationship that was…except for the experience. I wish that it didnt happen…but in that relationship were my “grown-up pills”.
Oh, and I did buy a copy of Allure. I have never, neva bought the mag before. But it had to be done. Come on. The shot was beautiful. The only thing that could have made it better, is if your tresses were natural. But that is the beauty of versatility of black women.
I wanted to say, that the tasteful blend of music, erotica, and words are so appreciated. New mommy doesnt get much…can her music just reflect where her head is when she gets to rides alone in the car with the music like she likes?
Just thank you…for living in the fullness of your experiences and not being ashamed. Thank You.

Just wanted to say that you blew me away with that concert at Brixton Academy on July18th. I was sad that you were ill and could not do the last concert the last time you came but you more than made up for it on Friday. From the old skool love songs, your non stop energy and your double encore showed how much you love doing what you do…..when you came back out on your own and sang….amazing……And I heard…..
Love you Jill, come back soon!
supreme-atl, ga// Jul 20, 2008 at 10:37 am
The Flow
that 1st touch was intoxicating, penetrating, sedating, sinning & saving in
the same sensation; i tried my damnest to fight the temptation, our sexual
attraction was my medication it wasn’t a sickness but i fiend for her
thickness, to make me nut up on her gut with the quickness,
but the trick is this wasn’t any ordinary hit it n’ quit, cause after this
there follows another touch, another kiss, another reason to ignore our own
unconsciousness and escape into supernatural bliss, a touch + a kiss + a
suck + a lick= both of us breathing heavy too exhausted to exist,
push back the pussywillows, past the satin sheets and identical pillows, our
body language became the words we couldn’t speak, her silo-huette lips
sucked songs from my soul as i licked her funky emotions with no
self-control, to reminisce about our rendezvous’ and quickies in the
backseat of the whip,
she said the scent of us was her high and she needed a hit, i used to wonder
if she was sprung until one night we were alone when she told me she was,
and said she fell in love and asked if i would cum.
Miranda, Johannesburg South Africa// Jul 20, 2008 at 11:26 am

Words can be used by anyone.
Vibes bounce off us all.
Feelings are something to come to terms with.
But….
A rich blend of all three can make you pause for a second and really think.
You got me thinking.
B. Hill SC// Jul 25, 2008 at 6:57 pm
Jill,
I don’t know if you ever get a chance to read your messages but you are such inspiration. I saw you in concert in NC for my birthday last month. It was the best birthday ever. I and my fiancé love your music. We will be seeing you again next week in GA. Thank you so much for making real music. You are truly a blessed individual. Keep on keeping on and I can’t wait to see you in concert again!
Alecia Rhoe, Kinston, NC// Jul 27, 2008 at 3:27 am
Jill Scott…you inspire me. You inspire me to be Alecia. Because of you and your music, because of your intellectual words, I was able to become confident in myself. You are truly my FAVORITE artist of all time. Your work speaks in volumes, and it’s the truth. I wish there were more artists like yourself out there. I will continue to sing strong and write strong. THANK YOU JILL FOR BEING THE REAL THING!!!
Erick, Osan Air Base South Korea// Jul 28, 2008 at 4:06 am
Ms. Scott,
I’d like to congratulate you for providing another soulful and meaningful musical alternative that is at once provocative, soothing and passionate. Your are a gift to those of us fighting the good fight of living life the best we know how. I admire the courage you display in your music when you allow us to see into your soul and experience the joy, sadness, pain, resilience and hope that makes you who you are. Your ability to speak so openly about your feelings of love and the beauty of love is refreshing and inspiring.
I’m an active duty U.S. Air Force member currently serving in South Korea and as I sit here listening to Words and Sounds Vol 3, your music makes me appreciate the love I have for my wife and the life we’ve made together. Tomorrow is our 13th anniversary and instead of feeling down for being away from her, now I’m smiling thinking about the love we have and the wonderful reunion we’ll have when I get home. You’ve helped turn my frown upside down.
You are an extremely talented woman, singer, songwriter and actress. Please keep blessing us with your talents.
Peace and blessings
An appreciative fan

Jill Scott, I would first and foremost like to congratulate you on all of your success. I am a very big fan of yours. My question to you is: “Did you write your song He Loves Me?” That is one of my favorite songs. You sing from your heart and soul and we call feel it in every song! You’re an inspiration and we are here always!
Ken – Atlanta// Jul 31, 2008 at 5:30 am

A must have….
Anyone please help.

Ms. Scott,
You did your THANG in Kansas City tonight. I don’t think I sat down from the time you came out until the last, last time you exited. Your presents is amazing and such “The Real Thing”. I am a DC girl, so I was loving the little Go-Go session. This was my first time seeing you live but it will not be the last. I had to come home and really listen to your CD again because live music gives the music so much more meaning. You better believe I am purchasing the Paris Live tomorrow. Thank you again for wonderful show.
C-Von, Kansas City// Aug 9, 2008 at 12:48 pm
Jill,
What words could ever express what your music does for me? Honest to God, you touch me. You write as a women should. The way you accurately communicate and express the hearts of women is beautiful. Not to mention you voc’s. Wow! You can do it all, girl. And as a vocalist myself I know how difficult the stuff you do is. You blow my mind. You do it with such ease and confidence. Truly, you inspire. Not only that but, you simply bring me joy. Pure joy! Thank you for using the gift God gave you. It’s such a huge blessing. I’m so thankful that God gave it to someone that would use it for such good. I saw you for the first time Thursday, after being your fan from the beginning. I’m saddened by the fact that this was my first opportunity to see you but, it was well worth the wait. Every expectation I had you met and exceeded. I have everything you’ve even done and listen to you at least once a day. The first time I ever heard you I was driving and “He Loves Me” came across the radio. I instantly felt like a gift had just been given to me. I became an instant fan and will remain. My prayers are always with you and again I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your art.

Chicago, Friday night. Jill, you are true WOMAN!!! Real and free, pure essence of a communicator with beautiful overtones of sensuality. Every minute of your concert was energetic and at the same time subtle and sweet. You ‘put it down’ girl. Can’t wait to see you again in concert.
Stephanie R., Minnesota// Aug 11, 2008 at 8:05 am
Jill, I got the opportunity to see you for my first time in Chicago 8/8/08. What a blessing!! You are a very talented lady. I have liked your music since the beginning and was glad to spread your CD around to all who had not heard of you then. You are……Jill Scott and stay true to that! I have and will always be a loyal follower of your poetry and music!
Be blessed and stay safe on your tour!

Jean Pyronneau, Brooklyn…Ny// Aug 12, 2008 at 10:01 am
It was weird for me. I went to your concert honestly as a means of going to my first concert ever. I thought whether I had fun or not i could say I’ve been to a concert before. I never thought a Brooklyn born and raised tupac, biggie & new edition artist lover–would ever have as much fun as I thought I did. And truthfully, not to brag, but i had women there trying to talk to me and I placed more focus on your concert than the numbers….that may sound weird for a straight man but damn Ms. Scott you really moved me. I thank you for making a 25 year old man from Brooklyn feel soul like he never did before. And you kept it so real that i had to do something extra and search and thank you personally. i hope this does reach you directly so you know how much of an affect your show in Wingate park had on your audience. Thank you for making a new fan out of me and continue to do you and ill make sure ill do me and blast your tunes like the hood dudes blast biggie tracks. Enjoy your day and like your music and appearance…always let the elegance shine.
Christina, New York// Aug 14, 2008 at 1:50 pm

Please stay strong, beautiful and positive.

This is ur girl JESSICA Mitchell, and i want ms.Jill Scott to know that i love her music all the time, it’s like i can’t stop listenin to it, because her music is like so true, and people need to start listenin what she is saying in ur music. Ms. Jill, u don’t know how much i’m in love with u, Ur music, u, and so much more. I seen how u was on stage singing on BET, and i had to look at the BET awards, because of u. When u sang ur music, it’s like u be telling ur life story, and i like that alot. But i will go get ur next cd believe that. I already have 4 of ur cd’s and i won’t stop, until i get each and every one of them. I ready gettin to the point of writing poetry, and when i do, i’m going to stiff them out, and let people read, about my life story, and when i get to meet u, i’m going to tell u all about it. But i have to go, but i will always look at tv, just to see u. P.S. Love for ever to Jill Scott
Lady T NC// Aug 27, 2008 at 7:04 am
Your songs have taught me how to accept the many ways of receiving love. But at the same time not allowing the sexual aspect of it to blind me where forget about loving myself.
Shiva – USA// Sep 5, 2008 at 9:31 pm
Today I was listening to a radio show (Mo’nique’s) and I heard a song performed by Jill that was absolutely amazing — and perfectly speaks to a situation that I’m experiencing in my life right now. It has a jazzy feel and it was a story about how she was so turned on by a man — the way he walked acrossed the room…the straightness of his back. She then talked about how he spread her limbs from coast to coast (or something like that) referring to their love making. The story ended with her realization that she’s not good for him and he’s not ready for her. Does anyone know what song this is I have spent hours looking for it online to no avail. Please help.

Well to tell u the truth i’m been in love with your music every sents i was 8, but i really didn’t understand it at first but until i got older, and i started to understand it by the age of 10, but don’t get me wrong now.

Hi, I just happen to go out to your website looking for the butterfly bra. I think it is a wonderful and reassuring change for full size women. My concern is can the bra sizes increase? I’m looking to get a much better fitting bra for my daughter. Do you think the bra sizes will increase up to a size 48F? If not, do you know where I can take her to get a bra made for her? Thank you for your time.

kim shipley// Oct 26, 2008 at 1:22 pm
Dear Jill Scott….i don’t know if you will ever read this, but I had planned on purchasing your butterfly bra after I saw your commercial….I was so excited that someone dug deeper and came up with the perfect bra for full figured women ( unbelievabe) 2 months after I saw that commercial I was diagnosed with breast cancer….don’t be sad for me because GOD is GOOD and this road I have traveled since March 2008 in some ways have been a blessing…I’m getting a second chance at life and I know GOD has used me to help other women who are and will go through this. I am asking that you and Ashley Stewart please take that design a little further and don’t forget about the women who have had mastectomys and add pockets to those bras so we can place our prothesis in them and enjoy the comforts and beauty of the butterfly bra. I am a full figured woman and the mastectomy bras need to have bigger straps and better back support…most mastectomy bras seem to be designed for small women…..and if you like you can name it the KIM (laugh) I hope you can do something to make all women who have gone through breast cancer feel more beautiful……because not all of us choose to have reconstructive surgery….and are comfortable with our mastectomy, but it would be nice to have a wonderful bra that still makes you feel like a woman and sexy. This is breast cancer month and it would be nice to see more than ribbons, because so many women are being diagnosed everyday with this disease and anyway shape or form to inhance a survivors life is a great thing and something so small as a pocket in a bra like yours would mean the world to me and others. KIm

I found her latest album to be a form of therapy, I connected with Jill on so many topics, I too was going thru a divorce the same time she was going thru hers. Needless to say I have cried many tears to her songs, but I also found strength to live again. As devastating as divorce is……you realize that the sun still rises, the birds still sings, and you can still fall in love. Thanks Jill for your testimony.

Jill love everything about your art. I have every CD. I remember traveling with my family your CD would the first we would play. Even now My daughters ask me to play your CD and they are now 14 and 9. Love ya, Jill keep us enlighten us with your beautiful art and music that come from the soul and not sold by record corp.
From an artist who never made it.
But I enjoy the artistry of those who never traded.
Their soul for gold, their integrity for money.
I appreciate the sunny spirit , the deep thoughts that cause healing.
Jill stay true to self when there’s noone left.
Even when some are left their mentality is displayed like dusty artifacts on grandmother shelf.
Peace to you and all your future endeavors, keep being socially clever, keep giving us Whatever, Whatever,Whatever.

Hey Jill
I just wanted to comment on the butterfly bra. I was very hesitant at first because that bra looks huge. I was planning my wardrobe for my first Jamaican vacation, and packed many strapless dresses, and i didnt want the look with the clear strap, so i rushed to Ashley Stewart,hoping the bra would work for me…..I looked fabulous, and I wasnt in any pain, or feeling frumpy..GOD BLESS U……i luv my butterfly

Carlyn, Philadelphia// Jan 13, 2009 at 2:47 pm
Jill, I was listening to you on the Mo’Nique Show today. Before you left the air, you stated to some degree that you don’t feel appreciated sometimes. I wanted to call in but I’m at work. But I want you to know you are truly loved & appreciated by so many strangers, it’s not even funny. Your lyrics & soulful tunes hits right to the heart of many of us. I was watching one of the awards show & one of the actresses who won made a statement at the end of her acceptance speech. She thanked the fans. She said she enjoys doing her thing for us. I was touched enormously. Please know that we know you do it for us. You share your life with us thru your songs. Trust me girl, your efforts will never be in vain. You are now a legend to many of us, especially us Philly fans. You make us proud & I’m proud of you & all that you do. God is good & I pray that God continues to bless you in your life, in your career, in motherhood & in love. You truly are an inspiring woman. I need to correct that. You are a woman, phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, that’s you. Peace & love, girl.
Phyllis Dothard, Georgia// Jan 16, 2009 at 7:53 am
Hey lady, I am not a big poetry reader but I bought your book and if I may add that it spoke words that I wanted to say to some and pointed out reasons for most. You are an inspiration in my life and I am happy that God has created such a gifted woman such as yourself. Take care and love life to the fullest…

Jill,
First I’d like to say congratulations on the birth of your baby boy Jett. I love the # 1 Ladies Detective Agency, I think it’s such a great show. I just love your voice and the spirit you bring forth when you perform. I try to see you every time you come to DC. I saw you last year when you were on tour and at the end of the show, you sang this great song about God. You said you were nervous to sing it because it was something new and you didn’t know if folks would like it. Girl I don’t know why you were nervous, but I’ve gotta tell you I LOVED that song. I’ve been waiting to see if you would release it as a single. I don’t remember the name of the song, something like “I am here”? I hope you do release it some time. I know you’ve got a lot of things going on right now and I wish you the best.
Love,
Tonya
Jason Orlando// Apr 29, 2009 at 3:28 pm

Jill, last year, you performed here in Chicago. My first time seeing you perform and I was in awe. A true soul sister! But it was the last encore before you left the stage. You said – forgive my paraphrase – “I think I understand.” You said it was a message given you in those ‘wee’ hours of the morning. A message that wouldn’t allow sleep, or be ignored. You passed the message on to the few in the audience who remained. I heard it then and I continue to hear it. Thanks for passing on the message!

My name is Quinton Williams. I am a Freshman at Claflin University. Just recently, I was asked to research a topic of my choice in which I picked Neo soul and interview someone in the field. I would really appreciate if Jill Scott would answer these questions. Its only a few. I comletely understand if you cannot.
1. What exactly is neo soul?
2. How does it, if at all, affect your everyday life?
3. Do you relate to neo soul? Why?
4. How does neo soul appeal to you above other genres?
5. Neo soul is known for its laid back style and realness. In your opinion, is it just a genre or can it be considered a lifestlye?
6. What is your favorite neo soul song and why?
7. Who is your favorite neo soul artist and why?
8. Do you think it requires talent to write or perform neo soul? explain.
9. Are there any qualifications, as far as education and networking abilites, required to be a neo soul artist?
10. How is technology used in neo soul?
11. How did neo soul begin? How did it originate?
I understand you are busy people and it may not be possible to help me, but thank you anyway.

Hi Jill. I think that your the most beautiful nubain queen I had ever laid eyes on. The way your eyes sparkels and gleams like the stars in the heavens. And your smile is like a sunrise so big and bright. Man that’s a sight to see. Your voice is so smooth and soothing like a warm breeze on a summer night. I don’t need the moon, your the light. A strong woman of will and beauty so bright. That it turns the earth into a new star. You just not a entertainer you keep it real. My heart glows when I hear your voice, that’s how I feel. Your not just a star you’re you. You are. Jill Scott.
Much love to you. Your new friend CJ Lyles.

As someone who has lived in Botswana for a few years, I’d just like to say congratulations for giving your role as Mma Ramotswe a lot of quality, warmth and credibility! I hope you had a good time in Gaborone and will be able to ’spread the word’ about’ Botswana in lots of other ways too. Now that I’ve listened to your voice on this website, I’ve been impressed by that too – wonderful!
Best regards!

Hey Jill,
First of all I LOVE your music, but you were on my mind in a sisterly kind-of- way this week. Not sure what kind of space you are in right now, but know that people love you and that you are a true gift from God to sooo many of us! Stay encouraged! Can’t wait to hear what this precious baby inspires you to sing! Whoo!
God Bless!

Hi Jill Scott!
I have seen the first film in the series Ladies’ Detective Agency and also the first episodes of the series. I never realy write these kind of fanmails or anything like it but I just had to tell you how much I appreciate your interpretation of the role. You’re absolutly wonderful in the role of Precious, so charming and strong and beautiful! Thank you!

I’m a underground hip hop artist still looking for my big break. I thought about giving up a couple of times but I just can’t do it. Last night out of nowhere I had a dream about you. In the dream we were having breakfast and talking about music. I asked you how you made it. You started telling about how you were doing things with The Roots. I began to tell you how I felt as far as not being signed yet. You told me to keep going and never stop until I get signed. In the dream I felt as if I had known you forever. And when I hear your music I feel the same. And I hold that close to me. Thank you for you thoughts. You are my inspiration.

Hi Jill! I was so excited when I heard that you have designed bras for busty women. I checked them out and was disappointed because I saw the smallest band size is 38. I wear a 34G. At any time will you be expanding the range of sizes? It is so difficult to find a good supportive bra in my size. Usually my size is not that supportive because the designers think that someone that size (anything larger than a DDD) has implants which are not as heavy as real breasts. My have permanent dips in my shoulders, horrible posture and chronic back pain all due to lack of support. I hope you are able to expand your sizes to include all types of big-busted women. Thanks for your time and God Bless! BTW, your new movie looks great!

i love jill’s music and voice so much, her poetry, expression, her style, her comic relief, but this website needs to be adjusted, it needs work, And please tell me why there are links to Beyonce on the side, i’m sorry, Jill’s website is her time to shine, I don’t know no other celebrity website with another artist blaring on their website unless their under the same label, I think its disgusting ahd humuliating, …Go to Beyonce’s website, you don’t see Jill Scott, Lets keep this website about Jill Scott, she don’t need to attract fans, her voice and lyrics say it all, and people love it
Karen Smith// Mar 11, 2010 at 6:30 pm
Hello Ms. Scott ; 1st let me start by saying I am a very sincere fan of your music and your acting career as well. You are truly an inspiration to all women who refuse to conform to “holllywoods” version of beautiful. Thank you for that. Secondly I would like to know if you ever do any speaking engagements that are none related to the entertainment industry? I heard you speaking for the first time on tv with Tyler Perry when the “why did I get married movie” was being released and I was very impressed. I am the director of a womens charity here in Alabama and I would love to have you speak to the women in the group on self esteem and self respect.
No Longer a Fan, New York City// Mar 14, 2010 at 6:08 pm
May I quote you from your recent Essence magazine column?
You say you “wince”, “feel an inner pinch”, “a sting, like a mosquito under a summer dress”, “betrayed”, “frustrated and hurt” when you see a black man with a white woman!?
As a black AND white woman (from a white mother and a black father) I take offense to your recent article. You should be ashamed of yourself!
Thanks for writing the article – now I know you are a blatant racist!

I love the concept of the Jill Scott Butterfly Bra! I searched the Ashley Stewart website for my size, but I was unable to find it. Does the Butterfly Bra come is size 36G and/or 38G? Thanks so much!
Chris Crenshaw, Richmond, VA// Mar 26, 2010 at 9:41 am
Ms. Scott — I just saw you on CNN, and you said you weren’t in favor of the “mixing of cultures.” I hope you’ll think a little more carefully about this issue. The word you’re looking for is “miscegenation,” which was a crime in many states until not all that long ago. Miscegenation is the intermixing of races, and white racists killed more than a few black men for committing this
“crime” with white women.
You may say that you were talking about culture and not race, but that’s an illusory distinction. There’s no such thing as “black culture” or “white culture.” There is only “American culture.” I think you should think very, very carefully about the implications of your words, because they were the same words used to justify the “separate but equal” policies this country was burdened with in the last century.
I very much doubt that you want to return to those days, but that is absolutely the consequence of what you’re saying.
Also let me say that I am a white man, and the woman I have loved most in my lifetime is a black woman. She was the most glorious, beautiful, spectacular, wonderful person I ever met…but you seem to think I had no business with her. For shame.
Jacquleine Washington DC// Mar 26, 2010 at 12:58 pm
Hello Mrs Jill Scott your music has brought so much impact to me and within my heart everything you sing about comes from your soul and your experiences please email me back Jill to give me some input I am your biggest fan I have a book called A Diamond In The Rough that was just published how can turn my book into a movie like what you did in Sins from a mother you are not only a song writer you are a Dam good actor thats comes from the heart us woman have to learn how to support each other you can purchase my book at iUNIVERSE.com much love and support!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
pierce johnson, texas// Mar 27, 2010 at 7:32 pm
Hello Jill,
I am responding to your article on black men dating white women. As an accomplished black man. I agree with your comments about the black family being broken down. I see black men dating white women a lot in my profession (basketball), however I feel as though a lot of my co-workers feel as though white women tend to be more submissive. I am not making an (excuse) or anything I’m just saying.
SLS, Texas// Mar 27, 2010 at 9:48 pm
Dear Jill,
I have been a fan of your music for 10 years. I have also supported your acting career whenever I could. However, tonight I have deleted every one of your mp3s from iTunes and will write to HBO to express my wish that they don’t renew your series from last year.
You can rationalize your comments regarding interracial relationships in Essence as ‘honesty’ but it’s racism plain and simple. As the product of a mixed marriage you have broken my heart. Before you start with the bitterness over “white women on pedestals” hundreds of years ago, why don’t you look at the current problem that most black men have being accepted by BLACK WOMEN. Thank God, you weren’t around to write race-baiting articles when Barack Obama’s father and mother were getting together.
I hope one day you can get over YOUR OWN skin color issues so you can accept the love shared by mentally healthy people is colorblind. At the top of your website it says people can come here to hate on Jill Scott; no one can top your hatred now.
An ex-fan
Jessica Reilly, St. Louis// Mar 28, 2010 at 10:47 am
I just want to let you know that I used to be a HUGE fan of your movies, music, and overall thoughts about life. I was a fan UNTIL your Essence Magazine interview on interracial dating surfaced. How can you portray these bad feelings toward a specific race when they did nothing wrong? No one can help who they like or love and you are making white women and black men feel bad about this. I also have a problem with the fact that you are only targeting the white women as your problem with dating black men. What about Latinas, Asians, Arabs, etc? Do you have a problem with them? Didn’t think so.
Please think before you speak, because you are putting this hatred back out in our communities where it may have otherwise not have been.
Spencer Fisher// Apr 8, 2010 at 8:23 am
I went to your first tour at the tower…got all your cds, as I support every Philly artist….and I now I am disgusted with you….Me being the son of a strong proud black man and my beautiful white mother, I take your comments to heart. You are ALWAYS talkin about love…..why should it matter to you who someone loves or not? How long are you going to carry around this feeling that the white people of today are the same ones 400 to 500 years ago? You really need to get over that Bullshit Jill…cuz that’s exactly what’s coming outta your mouth. stay “Golden”.
Jonathan, FL// Apr 9, 2010 at 4:13 pm
I listen to every genre of music (even ones most people have never heard about) and you are by far the best female vocalist I’ve ever heard. Your voice gives me chills, especially when I listen to your live album. I’m a very big fan and I want to share my love to my favorite female singer. You’ve inspired me greatly and I just wanna tell you how much I love you and your music. Thanks for all you’ve done and I can’t wait for the new album in August!

Ms. Jill! You are truly an inspriation and I admire your talented work. Your strength as a black woman engages me that even during my toughest times there is still light. I look forward to seeing you for the 3rd time on May 30th in Kansas City at the Starlight Theater. May GOD continue to bless you and your beautiful son Jett!

I’m a poet from this small city, Eunice, LA, and I drive 2 1/2 hours every weekend for my Slam Poetry Team Practice in New Orleans. My team’s name is NOYS(New Orleans Youth Slam) Six young poets trying to reach the world through rehearsing the art recorded in our tablets. Next month we’ll be going to LA to compete in the spoken word festival, Brave New Voices(July 19-24). I know you’ll be out here for the Essence Festival and all…and I know it’s a lot to ask because I know you’re a busy woman being JILL SCOTT and all…but I’d like to invite you to our open mic night that Saturday. It’s held at this cafe/book store called the BlackStar (3211 General Meyer, West Bank). I’m not asking for money or anything, I just know that we all are fans….dreamers. You can look us up on Facebook…Make Some NOYS.
Have a blessed day.

Merri Nevers, El Paso, Texas// Jul 7, 2010 at 11:08 pm
I want to share some information that may make Jill’s next concert even more live. At the Essence Music Festival this year, I went solely to see Jill. The volume was so loud that the audience could not hear any of the music…only the low constant note of the bass. She is incredible! I only wish I could have heard the music and Jill over the “noise” of the overly-loud system. Several other fans shared the same experience and felt the same way. Just some food for thought. I will also submit the same information to the Louisiana Superdome and Essence.
Jevon, Iraq// Jul 12, 2010 at 2:57 am
I love your music Ms. Scott. I have “The Real Thing and Collaborations” on my ipod. I listen to your music daily here in the desert. I hope you get to see this message. Have you ever visited the troops? Or better yet have you thought of writing a song for the Soldiers? If anyone can find the right words, it would be you Ms. Scott. Take care.

YOUR BIGGEST FAN……..
Hey Jill! I’m a huge fan! I was at the 24 hour Walmart at 12:05am waiting for your CD to be put on the stands. I really want you to add Kansas City, MO to your tour calendar. I’m an artist myself and I know what the industry thinks about KC but trust me when I say we are coming up in the world. Please show us some love, I know you will get it back. Holla at your girl when you come I’ll be the chunky one screaming her head off on the 1st row! LOL! LOL! Thanks for keeping it real

Jill… your new album is a classic! You never let your listeners down. Congratulations on your hard efforts! Stay “Real”
One Luv,
B9
Hi Jill!
How are you? Congratulations on your latest work of art! I have listened to mere fragments on the internet of what I can tell will be one of your most phenomenal works yet. I diarized your album release in my physical and mental calendar, and have told everyone I know (fan or not) that your album is dropping, so watch out!
The big day has now arrived, and as soon as the stores opened this morning, I was there before going into work, searching and searching for your CD, but alas, the search has rendered itself fruitless. Unfortunately, as it turns out, your Toronto fans will not be able to purchase your latest work for days, perhaps even weeks, because the leading music outlet in Canada (HMV) claims to be at a dischord with your label, and will not receive the shipment in as soon as I would like (i.e. now). I would ordinarily pursue the bureaucratic avenues set in place by HMV for their dissatisfied customers, but I thought I might appeal to you first. I thought you might be able to offer me some kind words to will me into being patient until your album arrives in Canada. I also thought I would make your label aware, and kindly plead with them to send a shipment of your latest work, and soon! We miss you up here, Jill, and I suppose, I will have to patiently wait to hear your wonderful “Words”. Thanks for taking time.
Kind regards,
Cat
Hey Jill it’s your # 1 fan …just wanted to say that I eagerly anticipated purchasing your cd today. I was able to hear samples of the album and after having a taste of it I knew I had to have the Real Thing.
You have been such an inspiration to me and I just wanna say thanks for the new music and you truly deliver on every album you ever made. Your music speaks from the heart and that’s real. Stay sweet and God bless!
Hey Jill! All my life I have been searching for a strong artist who made the kind of music like you does. You know there is an old saying in the church. People can understand and feel you when you sole is right and I can feel that from you. You are strong black woman and I love it! its in your walk, your songs, your talk, life everything! I am enjoying your new album to the fullest. I am praying that the Lord keep you strong! If you have time drop me a line!
DO YOUR THING GIRL.
Love love love Jill Scott!!!!!
I don’t see New York on the tour dates!
Will she be coming here?
The new album is absolutely phenomenal! Jill Scott continues to inspire me and I wish her much more success. Go on sista!
Jill, you are smoothest sister i ever heard. I like your style and I truly feel what you say. I hope to one day see you in concert. You really break it down!
I could not wait to get my hands on my copy of The Real Thing. I love it! I love Jill and how she expresses how we all feel inside. Keep doing your thing! Your positive words and wisdom is much needed and appreciated. Thank you for being you!
Jill,
I love you! I have all of your music and will continue enhande my collection with all that you grace with your spirit. I heard you on the Tom Joyner morning show as I drove in to work today and thought to check out this site. Glad I did, I want to ask if you’ve ever had a desire to launch a clothing line? You have a tasteful and trendy flava about yourself and I’d love to go to a shop that caters to sizes 14 & 16. Wow to imagine building my wardrobe with some cute, sexy and business attire with tasteful flava! The clothing and fashion industry makes “us” ample girls feel that we’re out of sync only offering the non-cute clothing options that forces us to dress OLD, or in flowers or fish! Just a thought, I wished there were a Jill Scott Line or a Jill Scott clothing store that I could go to and by my clothes from.
May God continue to bless and show his favor on you! We’re holding it down in Houston for you.
P.S.
I left my husband this year in February after being with him 17 years. I’d like to tell you to hold you head up and I hope that you live in the peace of a free spirit since ending your marriage. You’d think I lived under a rock, I only heard about it this morning on my drive in………Go head girl!
Best regards,
Shaunta McConnell-Eason
I love u Jill.Ur spirit is so sweet and unique. I love ur rhymes, ur poetry, ur high self esteem in the midst of this crazy expectation society. I love how u show us women it’s okay to express ourselves in the skin that God blessed us with. I also write poetry when I am inspired. I have a poem that I wrote to my husband before we were married called Music to My Love and I know that u would make a beautiful song out of it. Ur voice and style is so unique and special. I pray that God continues to lift u higher and higher and also continues to give u the beautiful poetry and music that u bless us with.
Thank you so much Jill u r truly an inspiration to many. Congrats on the new movie and please come closer to Jacksonville, Fl. Until u do I will catch ur show in either MIami or Atlanta:):):)
Love Ya,
Kurveet “Veve” McFarland
THE REAL THING IS SOOOOOO DEEP
I love this album. This is a album for the grown and sexy. Crown Royal is on point and so is Hate On Me because you can’t make everybody happy but I’m sure this cd made all your fans happy so they can hate on us to! Thank You for your wisdom.
Love jill scott
Keep doing your work of art

Girl, you’re awesome. I believe this is your best yet….Rock on my beautiful sister!
All I can say is I wake up singing your music,this Cd is truly bringing sexy back for real,but in a grown way,you have a way of painting an image in your music that’s truly satifying to the soul,in other words you make your fan think instead of just giving the message away,a hundred thumbs up Mz.Scott just when we think you could’t get any better,you do your a legend,love yah gurl!!!!
Many don’t know the pain
How the heart can strain
Losing the so-called love of your life
And inside… only a emptiness remains
Let me tell you this,
You are loved by GOD and once again will experience bliss…
And there will be sunshine after the rain.
But this is your time to get to know you
You are not stuck in your situation, Baby…
You are only going through.
So, that heartache that you feel…
It will go away and the pain will heal
Because GOD still loves you and on to you HE’s holdin’.
There was a reason for that season…
For you to know you are never alone,
You’re cherished,
Your golden.

Every album you put out is right on time and right in line with what’s going on in my life. Not your exact experiences, but it seems that 4-5 songs are exact mirrors, and I just want to thank you for presenting truth.

I am one of your biggest fans!! You are a lyrical genius and your voice is amazing! Your new cd was on point! Every song…Jill…every song!!! My favs are Crown Royal, Epiphanym. How You Feel!!!
you did your thing as usual luv. love to love you
Oh boi, Jill I have always loved your albums. When you came out with real thing i took my broke a** straight to the store and spent my last. I am beyond happy that I did. This album sums up my life in the last year and a half. I mean seriously were you spying on me or reading my poems on myspace, or even better sneaking in my house and reading my upcoming books. I’ve met you a couple of times and I am always like a star struck kid you just amaze me with your talent and humbleness. I feel like I grew with you and inpart because of you. You make music that Ican relate to. My best friend got her album a few hours before me and called me to tell me, my life was all in and around your songs, Keep on writing because your work makes me work harder. THANK YOU JILL SCOTT for simply being you.

Jill, I love your spirit. I love your soul. I love the way you think. You would not believe how many times a day I hear that I look like you! I wish I could show you a picture! You are beautiful (not just saying that because people say I look like you (smile)). I LOVE YOU. I’m listening to your cd now. “Cross My Mind” is my favorite on the cd. Love you…
I love your music it’s smooth and relaxing. Keep doing what u do…..Peace
There truly are no words to describe your music.
The only way to achieve your rhythm is to do it from the heart. Keep doin you, Jill.
Jill I hope you come back to DC, You are great, and we love You. Keep on keepin on.
Jill scott i love you sooo much your album is spectacular i love it alot.My favorite songs is ”imagination”,crown royal”,and” let it be”.I can really feel your music alot and plus were both from north philly so just wanted to show some love and hope you’ll be coming to philly soon.
Love your fan tia
I just love your music. It keeps me grounded, it is what i need when i want to relax and forget about all the stuff that is going on in my life
Gurl, when you coming back down to the Lou? We luv you down herre..lol. You killed it on the Suga Water Festival and we ready for you to come back to do your thang. Show sum luv and come through.
Lovin’ the vibe of the new album. I just ordered it and can’t wait to get it. I have to admit that you’re my favorite artist. I’ve not ever really had a favorite artist, but you are definitely it. Girl, I’ve seen you in Phila, Va, and CA. If I have the opportunity, I’ll be in DC when the date is confirmed. God bless you as you travel over seas in the coming months. Sorry to hear of you love loss, but glad that you’re ok too. God knows it takes more than life to break a woman God plans to use for a productive purpose. Keep doing your thing. Be blessed. Oh yeah that collab album was genius, too. Great songs, great artist, great time had by all of your fans. Are you involved in any projects in Philly helping young women? I’d like to get involved. By the way you keep me inspired to never let the ink in my pen run dry, but let it flow from my heart to help someone, record right and wrongs, make clear the plan and path, connect the past to the future and show love with a purpose. So many things to say, but not now. keep being cool and sexy…you represent Philly well. Peace
HEY JILL,
I’M A TRUE FAN, YOUR MUSIC TAKES ME AWAY, MAKES MY DAY GO SMOOTHER CAUSE YOU DA
S_ _ _!!!! YEAH!!!!
jill…..you are anointed to do what you do, to say what you say – you allow God to use you and you are so not afraid to allow Him to do so…..you are smeared with His Glory, exuding His Realness in your music, your lyrics, your movement….sista you are fierce and mighty in Him….and me and my daughter who adore you thank Him for you…..Guuurrrrllll you are the Real Thing….Blessed are those who bend their ears to the melodic flow of Jill Scott, for they shall hear MUSIC!!!!!!! i luv u girl! the album is AWEsome….im still on Beautifully Human, Who is….and Experience, Collabos…i shuffle them all in my truck and me and my daughter are right there with you….i saw u live in NY at the Sugar Water Fest and didnt want you to exit the stage….i know im probaly writng too much, but just know that the Gift that you possess within you makes so much room for you and that Gift is appreciated by people like myself who knows what and who Real Music is….promise to never change
Jill , i must say , you are one of the strongest and most deepest singers of my time and i’m only 17. I love Who is Jill Scott?. I know i going to love this cd, cause Hate On Me is my anthem. Keep doing what you doing, cause you are inspiration to young girls like me everywhere!!!!
This CD is the best that you have ever done! We experience changes in our life for a reason. Don’t know why….. just enjoy life’s ride that it is taking you now Jill with your family and true friends. Somethings are done for a reason and we don’t know why. We must go forward and just accept everything that is happening in our life. You wrote the songs that express what you were going thru and now you can go forward but still can take a peak back and remember some goods things. Thank your for this outstanding CD! Divorce is needing new space and room to grow. This CD is excellent you took time to write and express your true feelings. You are a true person with so much personality. I saw you on Oprah and you were down to earth and for real.
Jill,
You are the most talented artist I have ever heard of!! You know how to speak directly to my very inner woman.
You are definitely an inspiration to me. Quite beautiful too!! Thank you for being an artist with REAL music and having REAL lyrical talent. Not everybody can do that.!!!… Especially today!
Jill, I just want to let you know that I bought your new album the day it came out, and I has to be one of your best albums yet. I have all of your albums and I love all of those too. You have the most powerful voice, and I can tell you put a lot of emotion in what you write. I would love to see you in concert. Can you schedule some midwest tour dates? Like in Memphis or Little Rock? You have a lot of fans in Little Rock!!!!! Again, love your album!!! It should have debut at #1!!!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for bringing real music back! This album really speaks to my soul, and no matter how hard I try, I can’t stop playing it. You have a way of using words and vocabulary that nobody else has even thought of, and I love you for that! You are truly gifted and I love the way you intertwine poetry / spoken word, rap, and singing into your songs. That’s tight as hell! Congratulations on another hit album and I look forward to seeing you in “Why Did I Get Married?”.
P.S. “Crown Royal” and “Epiphany” are off the chain!!! I was driving when I heard these songs and had to quickly pull over because my mind just started drifting back down memory lane about a man from my past. Your songs always seem to correlate to something in my life, past or present, and I appreciate that.
I love your music

“Hate on me” is my anthem, please believe it! I love it and you. I also Love Crown Royal. The mini songs are always off the hook they say so much in such a short amount of time. They leave you wanting more but still fully satisfied. I hope you are coming to Detroit, Mrs. Scott!!

Repaired my soul
And shown me my dreams
I never knew it could feel this way..
Please. Don’t ever stop
Hey Jill,
Sista Gal I want to thank you for being you. I have really enjoyed the new CD. It came out just when needed, being that we both are at a point in our lives where we have to let folks go that are not helpful to our well being.
Thanks again, enjoy being single and loving life.

Jill,
I love your new CD “The Real Thing”!! It is so refreshing to hear a real sista make beautiful music. When are you coming to Indianapolis, IN? I know that your concert will sell out!
Hi Jill,
I live track 16( imagnination). I went to buy your cd and noticed that it is not on your cd. What happened.It is such a beuatiful song. I love your new cd. How can i listen to track 16 or down load it?
Jill’s flow of music inspired me enough to make my words flow onto paper. Been writing ever since. Thanks.
JILL YOU ARE THE BEST AND YOUR SMILE LIGHTS UP THE SKY. SORRY ABOUT YOU AND YOUR MAN BUT THAT IS HIS LOST. COME TO THE VA. I WILL TAKE YOU OUT.
My name is Roselande, i am a student at the International School of Health and Beauty in Florida and i was holding a fashion show in Feb. it’s a fundraiser for woman in distress and we are looking for sponsored it would be very much appreciated . Please feel free to email me for further details.
jill we love u in MEMPHIS !!! GIRL U R B.A.D
I am sooooooooooooooooooo delighted you are coming to Glasgow, Scotland! I got a ticket right away. Thank you so much!
You are simply my metaphysical muse.You truly know how to make a brotha feel good.Ever since your first Words and Sounds,I hang on your evryword and harmony.You please my earsthe way cake pleases my taste buds.I joke to my friends all the time that I missed my time and space to be with you romantically.I truly feel a spiritual connection with you due to your handwritten lyrics which are a self professed extention of your personal and business life.My creativity soars when I listen to you.Please come to the House of Blues in Myrtle Beach,SC.My fiancee’ and I would love to be inspired by your live renditions.We actually had a ugly argument about control and it was over you.She bought your new CD and wanted to chill and listen.Me being a man fresh off of work in another mindframe did not want to listen at the time.She thinks I show shades of control on things like the radio and TV.Little stuff that can cause large riffs.Anyway….We listened and I think I heard Ephiphany and just started groovin in a haze of lyrics.You truly inspire me and pick me up when I am down.Thank you…for just being you.Do not get too small on brothas….brothas love that “little extra”.They just scared to admit it.Peace to You and yours.Also ,I am glad your mother is doing better.Good luck with the Tyler Perry movie too….you guys are gonna break the bank this weekend.
Love and Peace Sent to me from God the Almighty to you,
Levi from Columbia,SC
Distractions
-Original short from L
Take me into your space,
Space crowded with a lifetimes worth of distractions,
I cannot concentrate,
Past loves pass me by in my own personal vortex,
My own personal hell,
I cannot concentrate,
My heart overflows like excessive water in a small cup,
Wait a minute ,
I CAN CONCENTRATE,
The love of my life is next to me ,
Close my eyes ,
Touch her face as a feather that lightly touches the ground,
Distraction just attracted me to my life,
My life clear,
Eyes vivid with pastel colors that paint the tapestry of my future wife’s image,
Yes,
Distractions no more.
well lets see JILL, you are an inspiration for myself and many other woemn oiut there. you make being a woman beautiful. ive just recently had a child and your songs were the only thing to get me through the nine months. every single one of your songs has touched me in a very special way. now because of yoiu my son will grow up knowing what real music is…and thats you gurl!
I just saw your video for “My Love” and I want to tell you I appreciate your honesty in presentation. It is obvious, without knowing why your relationship ended that your love is still strong, and for you to have the courage to be completely vulnerable in your video is truly what is missing in a lot of music. You are loved by me for you, and you are loved by me for the lyrics that live truth. Keep your head up and stay strong. Peace and Love and Blessings.
I have 2 thank u 4 all the lovely sounds and words u have blessed my ears with! I can’t tell u how many challenging times u’r music has gotten me through. There also isn’t an amount that can describe how many good times u’r music was with me! U’r truly a gift 2 all those who have the blessing to experience your music. Thank u 4 being a beautiful, sophisticated, intelligent, and spritual role model to all my sisters! Please continue blessing us with your beauty and gift! I’ll can’t wait 4 u’r concert n Nov. n D.C. I enjoy the last one @ Consitution Hall! There r no words to explain how incredible it was!
Peace n many blessings!
C u n D.C.!

Hello’ Jill Scott I know you want read this are even pay this any attention but i am your biggest fan ever i have all your music. I would love to meet you but i know that will never happen because you are a busy women. I would just like to say that you are a very beautiful down to earth women, so beautiful that if you were in the darkest place on earth your smile would light up that place like the sun. All your music is not like the other singer i listen to your music is from the heart and soul. Your a beautiful person. I hope you see this but if not that’s ok. Yours Truly Samuel Solomon of Altanta Ga.
I first want to thank God for creating a wonderful woman! Second I want to just congratulate you on the AWSOME performance you displayed in “Why Did I Get Maried?” My two favorite parts with you were when you broke on top of the mountain, and then when you cried of joy when you were in the dressing rm with the girls, letting them know how much Joy you wake up with… right there I had told myself that I want to get through my hardship so that I too can wake up with joy in my heart. There is a pure spirit you played and honestly showed and I want to thank you for not holding back, especially when you are going through your own hardship right now. God really used you in greatness in this movie… and as a believer of God I know that he will continue to use you for other great roles… And lastly your music… wow!!! Your topics are so amazing but mostly REAL!!!! And i commend you for taking your life and sharing it with us, fans! God bless your soul and life… may the Lord continue blessing you as who u are and are known to be. Take care
With Love,
Carmen Rosado
I love ALL of your work and poetry, especially the song “My Love”. At first, I was really vibin’ with the beat, but when I saw that tear fall from your face at the end of the video it really haunted me. I had to call my wife to ask her for forgiveness and it made me pray to God to forgive me for all the hearts I broke – intentionally or otherwise. The video put me on standby and ready to be there for my daughter come that day when she feels what you expressed. The last artist to make me feel like that was Michael Jackson. Gob bless you for helping remember what true love is through your poetry and you works. Much love to you, Jill.
I just want to say that you are our neopeom writer songstress. I just love listening to you while I’m just chillin’. You have that relax your mind type of music. Keep up the Good Work. May God continue to bless you.
Peace
thank God for women like u, I pray the Lord continue to give u a smile on ur face, ur smile is a blessing to others may the Lord keep and strengthen u in and forever guide u, again thank u for being YOU! Seasons of blessings livin our life like it’s golden,golden
Jill, I LOVE this album!!! Don’t know which is my favorite–the first one or this one!! And I loved you in Why Did I Get Married!
Joi
I am of fan of everything you do and I am glad to see you hitting the movie scene in a big way. I think we all got a glimpse of your talent in the show Girlfriends but were blown away in “Why did I Get Married?”, you are a natural. I must admit you had me in tears I guess in a way I was able to relate.I have to say the song I relate to the most on Vol. 3 is No. 7 “My Love”. Oh my goodness this SONG is exactly what I went through constantly in my head. I can relate to it a little bit too much lol. “Whatever” (live in Paris) is also a hit with my repeat button. Keep doing your thang no matter how much they hate on you, more fuel for your motivation.
Love Ya
Toya
What a gift to be able to lyrically paint life. I love what you do Ms. Scott. Your music ministers to my soul in so many unspeakable ways. Thank you!

Your beautiful works have once again helped me remember what one goes through for true love. I had to pray for forgiveness when I heard the song and saw the video for “My Love”. I am on standby for my daughter come that day when she feels what expressed in that song. God bless you for being an amplifier for a Black woman’s heart.
love your music

Please send any info, I’m willing to show up at the door by myself, after all that is the only way I roll.
Disappointed fan,

Beautiful Jill, I love your talent & your music! Your voice is so heavenly & fillies my spirit with so much pleasure when I hear it! You’re absolutely amazing with the things you do! Not only are you the greatest singer that my ears have heard & my soul has felt, but you are one outstanding actress! You made a brotha shed some tears with your part in Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married. Your with out doubt a major part of the movies success! I pray that God blesses me on day with the gift of meeting you in person. I can see myself now dropping to my knees & worshiping the ground your standing on, but then my wife busting me upside my head, LOL! Again I’m one of your biggest fans & I’m grateful for what you do & ask you to please continue blessing us with your gift! Much Love! KB
I love you Jill! Last night I went to see ‘why did I get married?’ and you were wonderful! I hope you come to Boston again, very soon, so I can see you in person!
Love, One of your BIGGEST FANS!
Jill Scott;
Thank you for being so beautiful. With all that has come your way your strength and power I know only given by god has shown the world a real queen. I hope one day to be blessed with your presence. Until then I will support you always and hope you come to Houston,TX againl. Pure love.
Ipha
Ms. Jill I just think you are a wounderful person, I loved your music ever since I frist heard it in the car . Keep up the work and never stop those powerful words that flow your mouth so powerfully.
Redd Foxx’s character “Fred G. Sanford” often claimed Lena Horne as his favorite performer.
Well, you’ve suddenly become MY Lena Horne.
I won’t say that Sade has been replaced, but it appears, in my book, that she now has company.
I must check out your “Collaborations CD”. My wife listened to it, and now I will listen to it.
Jill, I just wanna know how you knew… my thoughts, my feelings were poured into your song “My Love”. How did you know? LOL
Thank you for your insight and perception, I’m sure your words, songs, poems, echo the souls of many. I wish I were able to attend more, in fact, all of your concerts but I treasure your CDs and music. I will support you no matter what, you inspire me. Peace and blessings.
Jill, You are absolutely hot!!! i listen to your new album at least twice a day, and Who Is Jill Scott? Is still in very heavy rotation on my stereo. You inspire me! No matter what mood Im in, I can alsways find one of your songs to match my mood. Hopefully I can see you live in concert!
Jill you did it again girl. Crown Royal and My Love are HITTING IT!!!!
SO GOOD FOR MY SOUL!
I just had the pleasure of embracing your music at the hob on sunset this past wed…music for the soul I like to call it. Thank you for being such a strong influence in my life. I kid you not once your music started flowing threw my viens it seems I can handle any adversity with grace…just like a real woman should.
Much Love!
Thank you for the “music”. Thank you for the “truth” of your words… I have found counsel in your gift, for that I am eternal fan.
Now! How can I get access to the private show in ATL or DC????? 4 REAL
Thank you for your love(words)….for it was love that spoke the world into exsistance! Keep loving sista!
Hey Jill,
I am afraid I won’t make it for the concert in Zurich. Is there any hope for a future concert in Milan? You must come to Milan
Please send me a reply….
Thanks a lot
Romina
Your songs are poetry to sound. Your emotions become words and sounds that breathe life. Jealous of the paper and pen that capture your every emotion -to be so eloquent! Your seduces the soul and embrace the heart. I tore the cover to the album open like christmas day, feening for the fix my ravished soul so begged for since the last revelation dropped. Thanks QUEEN for your inspiration, your truth, your voice. One love.
Oi, i loved your voice, your style, you eyes. My Lord, you’re amazing…

This is your Aunt Vickie (856-725-4776), please give me a call. Why don’t you want to know the Scott Family. We love you and very proud of you. We always thought when you got grown you would be mature and show us love. I try to show you love, but you shy away. why? Who is Jill Scott? I know Jill Scott is a Scott and have our blood runnung thru your viens. I have many pictures of you when you were small. Please talk to your father, he loves you. Tyler Perry forgave his father and look at his life!

Love Love Love the new cd. You are truly talent and beautiful thanks for sharing your words through song : )
Jill, I have many CDs and tapes. I listen to music. I have even called myself a fan of their work, but for the first time ever, I have declared myself a fan AND follower of your work – movies, music, poetry, whatever.
I truly believe that a person’s craft is a reflection of their own soul, and “The Real Thing” was definitely that. A very powerful love atonement CD.
The greatest love revolution since “A Tribe Called Quest”.
It was as if you…
- went through all that mess
- decided to take a nice, long evening walk to downtown Philly
- stopped and thought to yourself that enough was enough
- ripped open your leather jacket and blasted a hologram beam from your chest into the sky
- the image you made formed a heart that covered the whole US…if the space shuttle flew over it they’d see it.
…and all that love came from Philly.
I love you for who you are and what you do.
Please, just keep it coming.
Also, I missed you the 1st time you came to St. Louis. I’m hoping you come back.
Love and Peace
My dear Lord.
I don’t know that I have the vocabulary to say more.
Jill,
I Love Your new C.D. You have not let me down. Your what we need in my time in age, and i love it. And i Must Say i loved you in the movie” Why did i get married”. I saw it two times. And i’am going back to see it at the movies one more time. Your music makes me feel pretty, strong, happy, and most of all, it helps me in my hard and sad times. Your the best. Thank you.
I am loving your new CD (as I knew I would!). Especially ‘Crown Royal’; you have such a way with words, your lyrics literally take to me places!
I can’t get enough of The Real Thing. You have raised the level on everything you’ve done! When are you gonna put a sister out of her misery and do a concert in Philly?
Hey Gurl,
You are the epiphany of my new founded love that is share with me and my man. thanx for the luv and inspiration that you generate within my inner beings. your music is raw and pure to the soul of human/huwoman kind… mad luv 2 u gurl

Jill,
My sista you are amazing!!! I love your music. You sing from the soul and as a fan i thank you for that.
i ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOU, YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION (PHAMBILI NTOMBAZANE) YOU MADE A COMMENT ABOUT HOW YOU FELT DURING YOUR MARRIAGE, I WANT TO TO BE ABLE TO TAKE A DEEP BREATH, AFTER A SUFFOCATING SWIM, I AM CURRENTLY ENDURING IN MY MARRIAGE. MY SPIRIT IS DAMAGED, BUT I KNOW GOD WILL RETURM TO THE STRONG POSITIVE WOMAN I ONCE WAS….
I HOPE MY FELLOW SOUTH AFRICANS TREATED YOU WELL.
NGIYABONGA….
Jill I am so proud of you. You have taken the ups and downs of life and turned it into a symphony of sounds and emotions that go great together. Thanks for staying true to who you are and to your fans. We appreciate all that you do and personally feel rejuvenated and educated through your words and music. Peace to you sister.
Ms. Scott,
I must say your beauty, poise, vocal style and recent performance have answered the question Who is Jill Scott???? She is the multi-talented DIVA of this age.
You sent me through a roller coaster of emotions as I followed your characters role through, Why Did I Get Married.. Several messages of true life situations. It reminded the brothers of the importance of committment beyond the surface of I do until, but I do …period. IT LET THE LADIES KNOW THEY CAN BE APPRECIATED BY ANOTHER BROTHER WHO IS WILLING TO LOVE THEM IF THE ONE THEY ARE WITH ISN’T WORTHY OF YA.
I purchased your Deluxe Edition CD for the simple fact that I wanted to see you anytime you came to mind….I’m elated that you included your music video DVD along with your CD. I have been looking for your music DVD’s, looking for your concert DVD’s but to no avail until now and I thank you. I Can’t get enough of you, are you planning to release concert DVD’s following your European Tour???? I can’t wait…:) Are there any readily available on your website to purchase???
Like Aretha Franklin sang, your Ex, when he lost you he lost a good thing, a sweet hearted woman, a priceless gem…didn’t he know this…he should have noticed. Now you are someone else’s blessing. Good For You…yes, you deserve to be love and through your fan base you are loved more than you know beyond those that spit venom…yes I am talking from your interview.
Continue to be blessed, I admire you and all you are doing and do. As for the haters, don’t even give them recognition…Just Float On Sweet Soul Sister:):):):) Smiles…Awaiting your concert when and if it comes to Chicago, Minneapolis or Milwaukee, if you make it this close…I’ll make it to you.
Wayne Cole
Hey gul i love your songs they justmake my bubble peaceful
just want to know when R U coming to the N.O. l’ve never seen u live its a dream of mine lol
Ms. Scott
Just when I get over the high with joy from your last cd, you blow me away one more again with “The Real Thing Words and Sounds Vol. 3.” GOD is breathing all over your voice. One evening while on the way home from work I was listening to Michael Baisden and then…I heard the first horn note in the intro of “Hate On Me” I was hooked! I had to get the cd, but had to wait until September. It was in early June that I heard it. I have to admit that I was able to turn the intro into a ringtone for my cell phone. Whenever my phone would ring people wanted to know about the ringtone. I would then tell them, it is one of the greatest songs you will be hearing in a few months.Hate On Me has become my anthem. It conveys every emotion that I have been going through with my ex-husband who after almost a 10year divorce has been trying to destroy my life and my child’s love for me.
When I finally got the cd (the one that included the dvd music videos) when it dropped, I couldn’t open it fast enough. had no idea captivated I would be with ALL the songs! “Whenever You’re Around”, is so infectiously sexy. Our brothers need to take heed to “How It Make Feel.” You’ve brought quality back to music.
Bountiful blessings to you my sista.
I just saw “Why Did I Get Married” sista girl! You put your feet soooo deep in the role of Sheila.
You’re in a class all your own made especially by GOD.
You are truly living your life like it’s GOLDEN
:
Hello,
I just purchased and finished listening to the new CD. It is awesome. I don’t have a favorite track yet, but I am leaning toward track 6. I love the virgin experience of hearing a new Jill Scott song. Your music and your words bring me so much joy. You inspire me to keep writing when I hear your words and music together. Keep it up. I hope to see the new Tyler Perry movie soon, however, I am recovering from surgery. And I did not want to bust a stitch.
Peace,
Joyce
I love your music. When I went to pick up the cd the guy in line behind was trying to be all up in my basket and he saw your cd with my items, so he ran back and picked up and used it as a way to get my number which i figured was funny. So he calls me the next day and was soooo happy that he ran into me because he has been missing out on all your music. So now he has went back and purchased all your old albums and we can not stop playing crown royal and how it make you feel. Those songs speak to my…mainly “how it makes you feel” living in Arizona I play on campus on purpose so these balck men would get some common sense. Its a great message. I love ya work, ya music, ya confidences, and just your messages about being yourself. Thanks for keeping me inspired.
I just want to say that I simply LOVE your music! With me being a young adult most people tell me that I don’t know or understand what I am listening to. But you have showed me the way to understand and see many different things from more than just one view. Thank you Jill!!!!
Anyone can relate to this CD beginning to end…Just wonderful!!!!
Crown Royal On Ice…sheer lyrical genius!!! Yeah I know one of those…(chuckle)
I absolutely adore the way you express yourself both lyrically and melodically. Your music got me through Iraq and is getting through being on a small albeit beautiful island in the Pacific oh so far away from my family and friends. When I hear your music, I don’t feel so all alone. Thank you for that!
jill…
your lyrics and style of music is so real and tender..when my times are hard than any other person can imagine i put on a cd of yours and it makes me smile, you keep it so real..cant wait to see you at academy birmingham..sista to sista xx
I hope you realize how much your spirit shines through your music. The creator gave you a gift like no other and i hope you continue to share.
hey jill whta’z up im just stoping by to say hi !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, I saw the new video, and I must say Jill Scott is the most powerful vocalist, lyricist musician I have had the pleasure of listening to. I so wish she could visit our shores SOON. I LOVE JILL SCOTT. I am yet to be dissapointed by her work. I would love to see her live. Please Come to Mandelaville.
I witnessed a great performance last night, MS. JILL SCOTT. The show was empowering, motivational (”Crown Royal” and “Deeper” performances) enlightening and soooo much more. She put her FOOT in every song, the dramatics for each song performance was just as I pictured it would be, placing me as an audience member in every emotion of each song. The vibe was right, Jill got her grown woman on and the band was GREAT!!! I was more than pleased with the performance. As an artist she gives the fans what they want which is the real thing- no additives, no lip-singing just a grown a#* woman who isn’t afraid to be honest, show her sexuality and her vulnerability…… as I allow ” Wanna Be Loved” to soothe my spirit and reminisce on last nights performance all I can say is she is THE REAL THING.
I love the song on your new album “All I” . You captured exactly how i had been feeling the day i listened to it the first time . Thank you !!!
I first heard you through my father when i was younger,bout 12, he was a opera singer and i had a passion for singing to although i always knew i wanted to do soul. when i first heard you i could not take the headphones off! your voice was amazing!my ma listened to you to, i was buying every album and jammin to it with my mama! you express yourself so much through your music you inspired me in so many ways and with my music! you have a song for every mood im feeling! you truly have a amazing talent! you a reminder to me to keep writing keep singing and do it because i love it! keep doing what your doing!!
Lone
Nina! xXx
you are a beautiful spirit, i love all that u do and are and keep ur head up
be peaceful
you are trully inspiration at in its rearest form.you are phenominal!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So many of your songs have touched me. It’s like you have a window into my life/soul. I turn on the cd, crank the volume and raise my hand to songs like “Hate on Me”, “Crown Royal”, “My Love”, “Celebacy Blues”….okay the entire CD speaks to me!! It is definitely The Real Thing!
Thank you! Now I can move on….
Michele

Thanks! Thanks again for beautiful lyrics and melodies!
Each of your albums is different from the one before. Each takes time to understand so it can be enjoyed more more. Each volume I end up loving so much!
On The Real Thing I loved from the beginning “Hate On Me”, “Crown Royal”, “The Real Thing” and “My Love”. And then I started to REALLY love also “I Wanna Be Loved”.
The vibe of this song created the knowledge inside that I do wanna be loved. That I’m doing my thing and that I am basically happy. But still. I wanna be loved. Again you captured something deeper inside of me. And once again I am deeply grateful.
C ya the 23th of November in the Paradiso (Amsterdam) !!!
I LOVE “HATE ON ME”!! It had me bounching to work this morning w/ my heart pounding and a sly smile. No need for my usual coffee!! I just moved from NY to TN and thought I left my natural rythem behind…this morning I found it again. I just pre-ordered on Amazon!! THANK YOU JILL!!!

Jill oh how I love Jill the woman who inspired me to go after my own passion of writing and music. I will never forget how i felt when I first heard you sing. Your voice is like an undiscovered instrument never heard by man kind. Continue to do what you do and make the world a better place with your music. Love You Jill; Love You

I fell in love with Jill and her music when I turned 12 years old. It was the year I decided to grow my relaxer out for the first time, and I saw her and her afro in the “A Long Walk” video, and I just thought, I want to be like her, she is so beautiful, and that moment gave me the complete freedom to be myself physically! I love you Jill, I am a huge fan and I love the new album!!!!!
I was at your concert in Brussels, I had a great time. Thank you !
We were a bit shy at the end

I love your music and if you ever need another backup singer, please let me audition.
hi jill,
i came to your shepards bush show last night and you where overwelmingly beautiful in every way. i first listened to your who is jill scott album aged about 14 and something in its vibe grabbed me though i was too young still to understand its depth and spirit. i then aged about 17 got massivly into your music and all your albums have been sensational. who is jill scott is the one for me however, every song on that album moves me deeply and its as though you are speaking from me and to me when i hear the songs. you make my wrongs feel-okay,allowed, understood. you make my sadness’s feel warm and looked after, you make life feel like magic canand does happen, you make sex sexier still and you make music meaningfull in comparison to some of the run of the mill stuff out there these days. youre lyrics are so amazingly spot on creating images in my mind, and that dream of how and where one wants / dreams to be , mentally spiritually and personally. you truely are a queen! a real womans woman… i have cried to your songs with happiness and sadness but whatever the emotion alongside, it has always felt underlyingly upbeat and serene… much love miss jill scott, please dont ever stop… i want to grow with your music more because it is deep, intelligent and wonderful, full of down to earthness and wonderfullnessxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx queenie
Hi Jill
I saw you last night at the Shepherds Bush Empire, and I am still speechless.
Words are not enough to describe you and your art.
You are incredible, excellent, fabulous, mind-blowing, just marvelous.
I wanted to see you again on Wednesday night, but your concert is sold out, so please come back to London again soon.
Lots of love
From Tina x
Jill, your music is great! I have been a fan since the beginning. My boyfriend only listens to rap, seriously. However, he is crazy about Jill Scott. No Mary, no Erykah, no India, only Jill will he listen to. I love your happy beautiful spirit. Your light shines bright.
Jill SCOTT! You are so wonderful and wider and higher and totally a GOD send for millions, billions, like me who thought we were alone in our thoughts of love, life, and sensuality. Many thousands have felt this and wrote this message to you, but I truly THANK YOU for giving your beautiful, soulful, talented, blessed voice and flavor of love and life to ME!!! You make me feel greatly human, sexy and wonderful when the world might have me feeling the opposite! My daughter and I both share a deep love for you and your songs and your poetry on paper. Thank you, thank you, thank you….forever a fan and Jill Scott back-up and wanna-be-lead singer in Chicago! MUCH LOVE – Always! Renee and Janae E.
Jill,
My favorite is Whenever you’re around because I can relate personally.
Aaron
YOU ARE the Best YOU that only YOU can BE! Love beyond words for your artistry and gift that you so genuinely share with all of us! You are most certainly an inspiration and a refuge (at times) for many of us!
One Love,
asl
when I was young I used to listen to a young girl name Jill Scott who song gospel music are u the same person
1 of the songs was called Thank You goes like:
At the age of 1 life in me had just begun
At the age of 2 God said gee I wanna work thru u
And at the age 3 he restored the gift in me
Jill,
You are an awesome lady. Your voice is committed to excellence in music.
You perpetually enlighten me with those powerful tones and words to each song.
You go girl!
i think that it would be great to see you play the role of ella fitzsgerald life story she was a strong and power for singer as you are and i dont think that anyone else would do it justice like you woul i just watch you and george benson do summertime and after i watched it i immedately went to the version of ella and louie and that role is made for you and i LOVe you in why did i get married
Everytime I think you cannot top yourself… ya do! Stay blessed and highly favored. And continue with the music…. LOVE YA Jill!
You have no idea how much I love you!!!! I respect you, I honor you, I appreciate you. You are a breath of fresh air, a sidestep to the typical r &b. Your music speaks to so many, and to see you live—what an EXPERIENCE!!! There are not too many ’sangers’ that when they sing, each emotion is felt in every syncopated breath, the lyrics speak volumes, the music lifts you to a place that gives you chills. I am so glad for your success, and I am honored to have experienced your perfomances and been a part of your generation. You truly give me, and other women, hope, that it’s okay to ‘go through’, and come out of that funk feeling good about yourself. I can’t say it enough, but I love you Jill. Can’t wait to see you (for the 8th time) in concert in DC–and I’m going to the Lyric in B-more to get some more of that Jilly from Philly Soul!!!!
Hi Jill,
What’s up with only one show in the ATL on
2-22-08?
I have been trying since 11:30am to get some tickets (the $100.00) seats and I keep getting the scrub seats in the nosebleed area.
Please add another show or open up some good tickets. Please?! My mother and I are trying to hear you do your thang!!!
Thanks.
Well Miss Jill, I got me some tickets to the second show!!! 5 in all.
My mother and I are in the Orchestra level.
Five minutes later I went back to get some tickets for three of my coworkers and had to get tickets in the first section in the Balcony area.
Thank you once again.
I am SO excited.
Hello, Ms. Scott
I can’t share a comment about love. But I can speak about your new cd- it is the bomb! You said,”Don’t be scared-come closer” ( I think that’s what you said) Girl, you are wild. Keep up the good work your music.
I am a young woman who has lost my voice in music. Growing up as a child I was dedicated to music; coming in from school, completing my homework, getting a snack, and then locking myself in my bathroom ’til bedtime with my cds and cd player. I would sing to my heart’s content. Then as I grew older I convinced myself that I would get nowhere with this love of music so I should stop spending so much time singing. I eventually did just that, I stopped singing. I would continue to sing in the school choirs in fact, I was a member of the acapella choir however, I stopped singing. I lost MY voice. I listen to you and I hear you and I see you and you are all that I wish to be as a singer, as a musician, as a woman. I am enthralled by your Queendom! *smile* There are only three female artists who have influenced me strongly and positively–Aaliyah, Alicia Keys, and yourself. The one thing that has influenced me most is your spirit. You are beautiful in the true sense of the word (beauty refers to the complete self in my opinion). If I could be a mentee of any woman it would surely be you. A mentee because I would love to be in your presence and just get a small chance to learn from you musically and as a woman. I know that all dreams do not come true yet I do believe that you will influence me in one way or another whether in the physical or through the speakers of my cd player. Thank you Jill Scott for being you.
Hello Jill:
My name is Sean, and I would love to sing with you i know this is crazy, but you wont be disappointed I’m not sure where to send you a demo of me singing, but I’ll find a way my number is 313-595-0488 I cant wait to make this happen, I’m just sorry I took so long to write .
Jill – Ticketmaster robbed me!!!! I purchased my tix for your much anticipated Feb. ‘08 show yesterday, at 10am sharp, and they pulled the old “bait and switch” on me. The rep (Dante) told me I had front and center, but turns out he lied and my seats are elsewhere. My euphoria quickly turned to a nightmare beyond my wildest. After admitting their mistake, the supervisor (Nedia) offered me a refund or even worse seats. No Fair. HELP!!!
- Your Saddest Fan Ever
Jill,
You are indeed a DELIGHT to listen to. Your lyrics are tasteful, relational, as well as the good sounds of your phenomenal music.
Volume 3 is sensational!!
All I – Come See Me – Epiphany – Crown Royal
Thanks so Much Jill,
Much Love,
Lisa
OMG…where 2 begin..
Jill i have been a fan of yours since i knew what music was!I love how your music is the truth..and how you just dont give a damn about what other people might think of how honest and real you are…you just being yourself..and you help me understand that its okay to do just that!I am only 16 years old.You know how people say that certain singer’s music only reaches out to a certain age group…well that doesnt pertain to your music.Me and my best friend are getting tickets to your show when you come here(Atl) in Feb.I CANT WAIT!!!!I love you now..and i will support you always!Keep making music for everyone in the world to hear!UR #1 FAN Chassity!!!!
Hey, lady
How did you get so, gifted? Was it a natural gift or did you have to work at it?
Jill, I’m a Philly Girl who has always had a love for music but let life get in the way of my Passion. I applaud you for doin’ your thang Girl. U have inspired me to light the fire under my A** to do what God has put me hear to do and that is to share the Gift of Love through my music. Thank You and I Thank God 4 U and your Love for Lyrics and Music. Peace, Love & Hair Grease
P.S. I can’t WAIT 2 C U N Greensboro, NC in march
Hello Ms. Scott! I plan to see you in concert during the duration of your tour. When and where I have not figured that out yet, but I DO KNOW that I WILL see and experience you because I am sure it will be an experience and I just won’t be SEEING you! *smile*
I am soo excited however, I would also like to know or at least let you know that your fans… well, I would REALLY enjoy experiencing you in a more intimate venue. I know it is selfish of me however, I would love to be up close and personal (in a sense). I am inspired and motivated by you and would love to experience the mere vibrations from you and not necessarily the speakers. I hope you understand where I am coming from, a fan of beautiful music, a fan of beautiful you.
Take care Ms. Scott and I’ll see you in late February or early March!
I love your music and your style. Your music inspires me; lifts me up; makes me laugh; forces me to be critical; your music heals.
Thanks.
you’re my diva. Keep your great art up.
Love it Love it Love it
Girl, do the damn thing…….Your music, your words are the definte truth. From one sista to anotha, much love and sucess in all you do.
Hi mam’Scotts, i jst wish 2 applaud u on da magnivicent work of art u keep on blessing our hearts with, coz your music wasn’t made 4 da ear only bt 4 da spiritual connection it makes with the soul, I SO LOVE U!! u must be the most greatest inspiration in my life n i thank you 4 being so beautiful, and would you please come n perform in DURBAN next time you are in SOUTH AFRICA
My mom was actually the one who put me up on the new song “Hate on Me!”…..and I’m glad she did….that’s my anthem. I just finished my collection with the new album purchase….thanx for inspiring me….keep up the great work!!! We love you in Arkansas!!!!
Hello. I want to say that I’m a HUGE fan of you and your music; your spirit, your (public) demeanor, I just dig me some Jill Scott. I do have a question; if it’s not too intrusive. I’m just curious on your religious beliefs. I should actually just ask for clarification. Are you a 5-percenter? The ones who believe the the Black man and Black woman are gods? This as opposed to believing in the one true God? I was listening to a ministry DVD, and your name popped up concerning the “5-percenters” (along with a couple of others); thus the questions just aksed. If I don’t get a response…understood. I am interested as to what it would be, however. If it’s the case, I have to get rid of your CD’s; I just don’t want the risk of tainting my spirit via your lyrics, your music. I just can’t risk my salvation.
I’m a dance teacher of hiphop, soon you can see my site internet. But i whrite you to ask to informe me when jill does a concert in france, because i really would like come see you and listen your beautful voice. I like your art, your spirit and your energy. Sorry for my english
bye

Where is the Chicago date?
Your mind is so delightful, your voice is so calming your heart is encouraging…thank you for your mind and letting all the ones who love your music we are behind you 100 PERCENT!
I love “Crown Royal”!! That song is AWESOME!! You are a beautiful artist.
Jill,
I listened to your video and your new cd and I must say that I was surprised to hear about the negativity that you mentioned. As you can see, I am probably one of the people who doesn’t listen to the negative things that are said about people. I feel that you did a wonderful job on your new cd as well as the other cds before this one. So sorry to hear that you are single now, but I understand that one. I’ve been there before, but as you know, things will get better.
Hang in there,
all of my love,
Phyllis
Jill,
There are not enough words and sounds which describe your gifts. I want to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to God for your free spirit in words and song. I will see you soon during the upcoming tour in the Northeast coast. I have not missed one of your concerts, and I would not plan on it either.
P.S. Please communicate with your fellow musician fans, will there ever be a Hal-Leonard publication of your music? Some artists have their work in sheet music form, but, they cannot at all be you – but, I would sure love to play some of the chords that I hear in your music.
Thanks for the expressions of all emotions in your work. I AM A CAPITAL FAN OF YOURS, THE REAL THING!.

Jill Scott needs to be the new spokesperson for Crown Royal-print and musically!!!!!
I won my tickets odd off the radio!!(orchestra seats). You are only person that I want to see in concert. I can’t wait. I’m already planning my outfit and show isn’t until March. Love ya, Miss Jilly.
Hey Jill, I love you! Why did you cancel your upcoming concert in San Diego?
you are the entity of life.

Hi!
Jill I love all your Cd’s I recently bought your collaborations Cd and it is soo good this month my purchase is the the real thing. Thank you for the Good Music you give to us. Im still waiting for you to come to South Africa.
Love you
I love Jill and I am so happy with her career. She’s such a dynamic woman. I had a chance to meet her in person when we visited Tyler Perry Studios. She is definitely “more real” than you can imagine. She’s also extremely humble as well as talented. I see that she will be here in Charlotte on March 1st. I hate that she will be playing at Ovens Auditorium instead of the BobCats Arena (like Beyonce and R Kelly) but I understand since that is the Saturday of the CIAA tournament. I still wish they could work something out in the scheduling for her to perform that night since the tournament championship is usually played during the day. Either way I’m excited because the concert will probably sell out. EVERYBODY will be in town for CIAA. It would be great if she could rearrange her other dates so that she could do multiple shows in Charlotte. With so many people in town that week, every single show would sell out. I look forward to meeting you again sweetie. If any of your camp reads this we are having a “Celebrity Only” VIP set up for that week at the Luxurious Rustic Martini on Tryon & 9th St., so feel free to stop by, and let me know when we can do our cover interview!!

Hello i would like booking information for jill for a future nyc venue i promote…
JILL I JUST HAVE TO SAY YOU MARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MOST TALENTED WORDS NOR SOUNDS CAN DESCRIBE WHAT YOUR BEAUTY,SEX APPEAL,AND YOUR MUSIC DOES TO ME.IN THE WORDS OF DR. DRE NO ONE CAN DO IT BETTER I LOVE YOU PEACE FROM THE (TRE FO)
Jill
Thanks for the latest. It’s how I feel.
Dear Jill :
I think it repeatative to tell you that I am your biggest and #1 fan so I will be diverse in my own description of how you inspire me. I am truely a disciple in every since of the word (spoken word) and I wish to break bread with the world, but first I must start in my own community.
Since Philly is your stomping ground and I am a new resident to the metropolitan, I wanted to know where are some good places to start that would support a brother such as myself?
I believe being a fan is not enough but being a disciple, carrying the word that God has given to each of us makes us on one accord, therefore I would like to help in my own way of feeding the masses. Can you pass me some wisdom and break bread with me so that I can pass it on?
One hand open to give and the other open to receive let God’s love that is endoewd through you flow now to me…
Much Love

I can’t help but feeling like Vesta was channelled in the my love video. I love the song an the video. I would really like to know the brand and color of the lipstick worn on the my love video. It is so pretty and simple.
Jill, I absolutely love your music. You are one of the most influential artists I’ve ever had a chance to listen to. I am also an artist and I am planning on singing Golden at the Relay For Life event my school will be holding in April. The only problem is that I can’t find the chords or sheet music for the song ANYWHERE. I’ve been searching for a week now. Could you please send me a link or something where I can buy the music for the band. Pleeeeeeeaaaaaase! I would appreciate it soooo much. Love you and I hope our paths cross one day. You are truly an amazing woman.

Jill,
I LUUUV The Real Thing!!!! You hit home with all of your songs. I can definately relate to them one way or another. Thank you for putting it out there!
Jill, I don’t want your riches, nor am I seeking to share in your hard earned yet much deserved spotlight. I would just love to be in your element for just a moment at anytime. You are to me what exemplifies the true meaning of a complete woman. There should be a recall of every dictionary ever printed. At the completion of this act, there should be a simple revision of the word defined, “Beauty”. Simply put…BEAUTY,definition-Jilll Scott.
Ms. Jill,
I got nothing but love for you. You are brilliant and beautiful. Like the one comedian said..if somebody ain’t hatin’, you are doing something wrong.
Peace beautiful.
greetings from domonique
welcome to Oakland
i’m an engineer who does 3 minutes of thought-provoking (self-proclaimed) pieces on the mic during Mouth-Off Wednesday; a hot water cornbread production by scorpio blues, hosted by prentice powell,
8-10pm Wednesday at Air Lounge, 9th St and Washington in old Oakland.
i have a piece that involves an ol’ man (acted by me) as a witness to a verbal interaction between a 6yr old son and his mother. the mother is called to share her story.
CRAZY as this sounds, should you be willing and able, i invite you to represent the role of the young mother, 6 feb 2008.
Jill U are simply amazing!! The words you speak are real and inspiring, the sounds that you bring, ease, clams, and relaxes the mind, body and soul. You are The Real Thing!!!! And Jill Scott I can’t wait to see on stage in concert in Birmingham Thank You Jill
Ms. Jill,
You Are! I have to listen to you on a daily basis. Your energy lies in your music and its a big help to a single mom with 3 kids and trying to making it in this harsh reality. Thank you for letting the world know how real it is! And thanks for the RAW and uncut sounds we strong women need to hear down hear in the south.
Jill has got it all!!! Only dissappointment I have ever had was when I traveled all the way to the 2002 St. Lucia Jazz Festival and upon arriving and going to the hotel bar found out Jill would not be attending. She was the determining factor as to why i finally went. Still enjoyed myself. Jill is a total inspiration and enjoy all of her creativeness. A truly talented woman and she is a blessing to the music industry.
Looking forward to the performance at the FOX!!!
Jill Appeal
(A dedication to the lyricist/poet/vocalist, Jill Scott)
You’re my motivation and inspiration
You’ve coerced me to steer clear of self-deprivation
I’ve envisioned myself in a more rewarding situation
As you verse me with lyrics of love dedication
I’ve heard the expression to live out your eulogy
In the home going, your life’s story is another’s philosophy
You’ve serenaded this in a song possibly?
Hence, my interpretation of your ideology
You said, of love make no mockery!
It occurred to me through your sultry inflections
And, savvy expressions – I see my reflection
I too a hopeless romantic,
Have seen my days of demeaning antics
I secured my eyeglasses
My vision was hazed with thick molasses
I assumed the role of mechanical wife –
Succumbed to a life of struggle and strife!
I stretched out my arms and hugged myself!
I sang myself a song in the key of C – treble clef
I now press the play-button to the song of life
I have no use for rewind with God’s angels in flight
Around me they encircle and form a ring above my head
They’re my alarm clock in the morning – at night they tuck me in bed,
After a bible verse of God’s love for me I read
Get thee behind me satan, I said!
My life was saved when to God Jesus plead!
The battle is won – Jesus stood in my stead!
Now of my life He is the Head!
In me Jesus lives – I’m no longer dead!
I’m protected, covered and spiritually fed
Always be steadfast to strum your beautiful vocal cords
Minister, Minister to the world; for Great is your reward!
You’re moving bruised souls to jump aboard
As your songs dispel pain we hoard
Thank you; thank you for your spiritual gift
And for the many broken spirits you lift, lift and Lift!
Vow that from a purpose-driven life you’ll never drift!
Not yet has the world been taken by my healing smile
My name and number aren’t on Kirk Franklin’s speed-dial
I’ve yet been blessed to accompany a record label
But to move an audience to praise – I’m able
I’m not a video-honey with my inhibitions running wild
I aspire to lead a spiritual life in eternal exile
Awaiting the day I’m caught-up with God and awarded my crown
There are no words left to say or need to further expound!
Your spiritual sis,
Tracey Weatherspoon
Got you on ice, baby!

Music-Sokol Georgiev(Socky)
Lyrics-Julien Angelov
Something special
Canto 1.
Fall in love,fall in love.
It’s so strange i’ve never lost my mind before.
I don’t know is this wrong?
It makes me feel these things i’ve never felt before.
Bridge 1.
By the way,i’m standing awake tonight,
because thinking of you.
I don’t know how to say
how much i care.
Bridge 2.
How could i be so blind
before i met you ,how?
You have that special touch i always wanted
I found the way to love you!
Chorus
Something in your eyes
something in your smile
something in the way you kissed me
makes me feel alive!
Bridge 3.
And now i understand why everything
Is happening to me
I think the reason of my life is
to give love and being loved.
Canto 1.1
Suddenly,sudenly
I’ve being changed in someone that you need my love.
Do you know,do you know
what would be if you fall in love in lonely nights?
Bridge 1.1
In my dreams you’re comming tonight
And i will be there close to you.
I’ll say these words
You need to make you stay.
Bridge 2.2
I realy mean to tell you all my secrets now.
What is the things that somehow
makes you special
this time i know the answer:
Chorus.
Something in your eyes
Something in your smile
Something in the way you kissed me
Makes me feel alive
I admire your work, your posture and position in the arts as a powerful and talented female artist. Jill I want to extend my congratulations on your nomination and I want you to know that for all that you have already accomplished and will in the future; you are winner in larger, more significant arenas than the Grammy’s. You exude an attitude of success and perseverance. You are a versatile fresh talent that continuously evolves even though you are not a newcomer on the scene. Keep doing what you do, maintain your individuality, style and finesse. I hope to one day have the pleasure of enjoying your work personally so please come visit your fans in South Florida, we need a concert too. In closing just want to say there are a lot of performers that are manufactured and continuously strive to stay in the public eye by compromising talent for commercialism. You bring so much of yourself into your work that we the fans of talent authenticity value what you bring. Keep bringing it, God has placed so much in you; give Him a chance there are no limits on destiny in Him.
To you Jill, talent extraordinaire; like a fine wine, the quality of your work gets richer with time.
God bless, now and always.
Life, to so many the “fear factor” of their existance…Yet, so many rewards it holds, so many joys to unfold. Tread light as it requires diligence, but once the power is unshethed many struggles u will conquer.
i loved you in paramount theatre oakland off the hook hope you come out with another cd an come back.
love you
My 5 year old daughter and I love Jill Scott. When “Golden” came out my daughter was 2, she would sing along to in the car everyday. At the of the song she’d say “play it again mommy, again mommy.” I would listen to her sing along with you for the entire car ride. So last Friday when I was leaving to see you perform in Oakland, she says what concert are you going to. I replied “Jill Scott, do you know who Jill Scott is?” Her response, “yes she sings “Golden.” ” My daughter also knows the words to “Hate on Me.”
Your performace was amazing, I loved every minute of it. I’m so sorry that you had to go through what you have been through, but at least you have your music to express how you feel. It’s so good when artists can be honest, it makes you real.
what happen to the song chorus!
where is jill scott?
Is there ever going to be an Australia tour?
Greetings Jill,
I am so proud of you, The Real Thing is it. Every time I see your photo when you were about 6 years old, I think about how I use to dribble my basketball to your porch, and you use to run out and talk to me, You were my baby girl then, and you will always be my baby girl. I am coming to your concert in March, I would like to see you, if all possible. I hope and Trust your mother and G-Mom is doing well. I hope to hear from you .
Peace & Love

OH MY GOD!(Yes..i had to call on him for this
one)Saw Jill Scott in L.A. tonight! Wow! Amazing! She..her passion..the stories..the characters she portrays in every song grip you..hold you hostage giving you just a bit of mercy in between songs. You’re in love with her from the moment she steps on stage and smiles to the very last breath she breathes into the mic. This is when she finally lets loose of your senses. I mean…wow!
Miss Jill… your killin em! What you bring to our world table is so refreshing and long overdue. Its so much more than just the message and the music.Thank you for your light and labors of love…Dont stop! You are more than real sistah…You are the truth!
~M*
Jill, I really hope that you read this. My….actually, I don’t know what he is to me because we’ve broken up and haven’t formally gotten back together….”friend” and I attended your Valentine’s Day concert at the Gibson Amphitheatre. I bought the tickets for him because I knew he loves you so much. I have always admired you for the warmth and love you radiate through your smile and your voice. Well, I had no idea I would be so spritually blessed by your show and your presence. I don’t really have love from my family. I have battled depression since I was 14. I am 23 now. Basically, I was just “existing”. Your words and demeanor instilled so much confidence and joy in my heart…just from that one night. You encored 2 or 3 times…I wouldn’t have complained if we had stayed the whole night. You have awakened something that I thought was dead within my spirit….my love of writing. As a child, I was discouraged to express my feelings. My only way to release was through writing and I lost the motivation to write when I developed my depression. YOU MENDED MY HEART!! YOU HELPED ME FEEL WHOLE AGAIN!! Please don’t think I am crazy but…..I will never be able to thank you for what you have done for me. I pray I will be able to tell you in person one day. God led me to you for emotional healing. Omg…this comment is sooo long and I am sooo sorry. I love you, Jill. You are a gift to us from God.
Jill, you are the most beautiful, most creative, gift that God has released to the world. You are not afraid to let the words flow from your own personal experiences; giving us a glimpse into your personal happiness and pain always creates your beautiful works of art. Your voice, lyrics, and artistry moves me in ways that absolutely takes my breath away. You are truly my “Great Orgasm.” Keep doing that you love, and it will be never be considered as hard work.
p.s. I’ll see you in B’ham on 03/30/08.
Hi, Jill
Words can never discribe how beautiful and talented you are only you simplicity and humbleness will pull through and make you more.
love you always!
Hey Jill! Me and my wife saw your show in Dallas at the Nokia Theather and it was awesome. I have always been a fan of yours. Me and my wife are always listen to your music, whether its at the house or in the car. The Real Thing Tour was my first time I seen you live and you tore the place down. I have always tried to see your other shows here in Dallas, but the shows was always sold out. Now I see why. You are truely a beautiful human. Every time I go on a road trip, its a must that your albums be in the CD player, because it makes the trip that much better. When I saw you at your show your music touched me in a way I can’t explain. A poem you sang at the end of your show, opened my eyes and made me realize that there is a light in me that GOD lights every day. I just want to say thank you for music and ur winning personality. I will be at your next show here in Dallas and your next album is already waiting to join my collection. Peace.
Ms. Jill,
Oh my Gosh…I have been unable to go to sleep since last night’s Awesome performance at Nokia Theater – Dallas, TX.
I hope there are those who were there to see you perform in Dallas. My heart is filled with so much joy. I have looked in that same “mirror” and have also recognized that I too am Beautifully Human. What a wonderful appetizer to have Raheem on the show. He was great!! However, Jill will be Jill.
I am in awe of how Great a person you are. I seen your last show in 2005 at this same venue. It’s not often that an artist can top themselves but you did. I commend you Jill, your music, your passion, your soul is Genuine. You are in fact, the Real Thing.
I must say that the poem, “And I Heard,” I believe that’s what you called it, brought so much emotion. I do understand what you are saying and I hear you loud and clear. The beauty of the the band and background vocalist were amazing. You bring nastiness, love, and hope to this world.
The music industry needs you! Please don’t let it be another three years before I hear what other Revelations you have to reveal.
Your Devout Fan,
Trice
P.S. Vote 2008
I saw you lastnight Queen Jill, my sistah you are Royalty, Regal. I’m still floored. I have all of your albums, I was up top singing every song me & my girlfriends. Your range is spectacular, so positive, so loving. I also understand what I feel inside too. LOL Girl keep your head up,much love & success, we gon’ ride wit ya’ Congrats to the new love like that ‘hawk’ he’s sporting.
Heya
Where does one start to trully give an on-point description of how you inspire me to write bigger than I am. You seem so confident and direct with what it is that you want to say,not to the masses but to that girl that is sitting in her room, crying along with “The Fact is”, at home nursing a broken heart, or that one woman that is driving back from work and blasting “Golden” in her car as that is the one thing that she looks forward to at the end of her day. Not many can master that art and you do so effortlessly.
I trully appluad and admire you for being as you say, “The Real Thing”
P.S Bravo with the “The Real Thing” especially Crown Royal- Hope to see you here soon.
Jill
I luv it! “Poetry in Motion”……your poems r the real thing!
Your words inspire me and lift my spirit! I can’t wait to see you on Tueday at the Lyric.
Much Peace
Jill. I understand what you sing and I relate to you more than you know. Music is the biggest gift given this world.
You blessings of song and lyrics are more than you can imagine. The pains and joys we feel are best released in
music. Music has always been a way of self expression for me. @ the age of 45 i haven’t came across a singer as your self who connects so perfect as you. Music and lyrics combined.
Thanks for ur moving words in song and poetry,Jill ur the best…keep living. One love!
Your role as Sheila touched me so here is a little something that I hope will touch you and your fans. Please feel free to use and repost everyone:
An Open Letter to My Baby’s Daddy using Anita Baker Lyrics
a.k.a: The Gospel According to Anita/Wake Up n’ Smell the Lonely, Gurl
By Grey Mariposa
Loneliness is my biggest fear
I wish the feeling would disappear
I can’t sleep at night
Coldness is creepin’ in
Ah, many days it goes unspoken
But this desire never seems to go away
I get lonely sometimes
and I’m mixed up again
Now I welcome love’s affliction
Though its symptoms I deny
Lately I find, I’m waiting by the phone
And I don’t want to be alone
Feelings won’t fade,
I won’t be neglected
I won’t be denied
I think you take for granted
I’ll always be here
Just because I love you
It doesn’t mean I won’t disappear
It’s right, it’s real, baby, it’s true
Yeah the sun and the moon revolve around only you
And the magic that you do
How could I be blue, not around you
Why’d you tell me this?
Were you looking for my reaction?
what do you need to know?
You do not have to prove to me
You’re beautiful to strangers
Your answer begging my question
It seems I left you too late to ask
Was this really your intention
From the start
The nights you left me are empty, baby
As for the answer, they changed the past
I tried to let you explain your change of heart
How could you change your mind
I believed that love would stay in my heart
Now it’s torn all apart
It’s gone away, I can’t stay, I’ve got to say
I don`t believe that you could do me this way
This heart of mine seldom lies, you see.
It’s often said you don’t care for me no more.
You took so long, how could you lead me on,
Left me wondering where and how we went wrong
When did it start to rain
How did things get so strange
When did it go astray
‘Cause you don’t love or want me
Sometimes I think that you don’t know me
Well you don’t hear me, you don’t feel me
Sometimes I think that you don’t see me
Everybody say that I got to be a fool
I got to be crazy for lovin’ you
And I’m starting to wonder if there is truth in what they say
Days you gave me were numbered
And as a rule they were hard to take
All it took was the number of a fool
Rules were made to be broken
So many hearts break the some way too, aw baby
I said that you ain’t no exception to the rule, yes sir
Sometimes you wanna cry, sometimes you play the fool
Hold on a little longer
Try to be a little stronger
I know the kind of pain you offer
Baby, I’ve felt your kind of pain before
Change your mind like revolving doors
Change your women like you change your clothes
I don’t understand your thinking
Don’t know why you do the things you do
Break my heart, and disregard my feelings
Breaking hearts’ some kind of game to you
Thoughts and mellow memories
Of once upon a time
Slowly creepin’ on me
And they linger on my mind
Turning back the hands of time
Holding on to misty memories
Chasing shadows through the night
Trying to find my happy ending
Only images survive
Lonely spirits seem to whisper in the wind
It’s a silent song that’s never meant to be
Since the dawn of time the mystery never ends
Flashbacks of the times we’ve had
Some made us laugh some made us sad
We used to break up to make up
Thoughts and mellow memories
Of once upon a time
Slowly creepin’ on me
And they linger on my mind
I can remember stories, those things my mother said
She told me fairy tales, before I went to bed
She spoke of happy endings, then tucked me in real tight
She turned my night light on, and kissed my face good night
My mind would fill with visions, of perfect paradise
She told me everything, she said he’d be so nice
He’d ride up on his horse and, take me away one night
I’d be so happy with him, we’d ride clean out of sight
She never said that we would, curse, cry and scream and lie
She never said that maybe, someday he’d say goodbye
The story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-uh
No, uh-huh-mmm-mmm
She spoke about happy endings, of stories not like this
She said he’d slay all dragons, defeat the evil prince
She said he’d come to save me, swim through the stormy seas
I’d understand the story, it would be good for me
We used to laugh
Now all I do is cry
You use to make me happy
Now you don’t even try
You’re hurting me, yeah
You’re doing me wrong
I can see it in your eyes
Soon you’re gonna be gone
And I know I’m gonna miss you
‘Cause I’ve been down too long
And there will be no more tears for you
Gonna be no more crying now
Gonna be no more tears for you
See my eyes have run dry
And there’s no more tears
From crying though the night
Gonna gather up, gather up my feelings
And I know I should be crying
But instead I’m slowly dying
And you, you keep doing me wrong
Ain’t nobody cryin’
Dry, my eyes
Lord knows it’s gonna be fine
It’s gonna be alright after a while
I’m gonna be alright
Lord knows I don’t need you no more, baby
I’m gonna make it on my own
You never came to save me, you let me stand alone
Out in the wilderness, alone in the cold
My story ends, as stories do
Reality steps into view
No longer living life in paradise-or fairy tales-yes
Logic prevail
I don’t believe in fairy tales
What’s wrong, wrong with you
If you’re the man I hear you say you are
I don’t quite understand why loving me is so hard
Your love never changes
It’s like a picture in a frame, and it remains the same
From beginging to end 365 days of the year
…same ol’ love
Jill,
Your warmth, depth, knowledge and compassion has kept me listening for many years now. I have never popped in one of your cd’s and been disappointed. Your vibe keeps me safely hidden, yet exposed to all my inner emotions. You make it all right to feel whatever, whenever, however. I can’t wait till you appear here in Memphis, TN. I’m certain the live performance will further entrance me and strengthen me as the black queen the (WE) are…..

Ms. Scott,
Thank you for an awesome concert! You love your audience, your talent, and the almighty God. I had a wonderful time. I love when you sing opera. The time that you spent to talk to us (audience)was very motivational, inspiring, and just truly needed. I would like to know more information about the foundation you took a brief moment to mention. I was raised in Philly and I would like to participate and inform others. I can’t sleep. I just keep thinking about the concert. I had a ball at the Lyric last night!!! I was so grateful how you came out several times to show your love for us. That last song was very touching…thank you so much.
Jill -
I admire your bravery and courage to step out and speak of your pain and heart-ache. It is very inspirational and encourages one to keep pushing. I love and appreciate all of your expressions through music and poetry. You are my true hero and role model.
Thank You.
I love your music! Your Music, your voice, is so refreshing because it’s real. I want to say you’re amazing but I feel that doesn’t do you justice. So please just keep blessing us with your gift!
hi jill im a fan i have your cd i’ve been to your
concert the real thing.
i think you should make a live version of the real thing because alot of people like you live i would love it if you did
so thats all i got to say.
love you buy
Hi Jill,
I want to start off by saying that I love you and your music. I discovered you during a ruff preiod in my life when I was separated from my husband for about one year!!
You have no idea how much your words were a inspiration to me to move past the hurt to a healing place.
I played your CD so much the kids groaned each to they heared it.LOL.
I am happy to report that since that time we have reunited and have planned to renew our vows to each other, our family, our love, and love of life itself. To grasp each moment like a man in quick sand!!!
If i could have one wish it would be that you would be present on our “wedding day” to witness our renewal.
If you could sing for us I could die without regret.
Anyway our wedding is in July 26,2008 In CT
Please contact me for detail.
I love your singing! Sometimes it makes me wanna cry. I love all your songs, they are great. I really can’t choose which one is my most favorite because they are all great. Each one has a touching message. Keep it up! Don’t give up ’cause I know you are changing lives, and will always be no matter what. God bless you girl! Love ya forever!
Jill you did your thing last night in Greensboro, 3/2/08. I truly enjoyed your show. Everything that you’ve been through, and spoke on, I’ve gone through, as well. It is so easy to relate to you through your music. Your music touches my soul. In closing, my prayers go out to you for continued success and to please keep sharing the gift that GOD has given yunto you, Jill’s Music. Always Keep Living, Laughing and Loving, I do.
Pat
Thank you for what you do???
I am your number one fan, I want to tell you how I really enjoyed your show in Greensboro….. I want you to know that your music has truly inspired me. When i am sad, I listen you… when I am happy…. I listen to you… Keep singing… May God Bless you!
I want to thank you, not only for your music and poetry, but for playing the part of Sheila in “Why did I get Married?” Sheila showed me the type of woman that I am looking for, someone who cares, who is loving, who is nuturing. It’s just so hard for us good black men to find good women, especially us younger men, (I’m 24) and watching the movie made me disgusted because those men who get good women don’t know how to take care off them and us good guys miss out. Thus, i wait. If i had a chance with you, I know I’d take it. I am also a poet like you and my twin brother and I just published a book called Languages of the Heart. You should check it out. God bless and keep in touch.
I LOVE everything you write! I can relate to a lot of your songs. Oh and I don’t know how many of your fans hae told you this ( I can’t imagine me being the first), but I think you are very beautiful…no I’m sorry let me be honest. You are SOOOOOoooooo FINE and I hope you stay that perfect size forever. Keep doing what you do.
Big love & big hugs from Londinium, Jill.
Peace and blessings,
emeson…
Saw u in Greensboro, NC Sunday….AMAZING!
I enjoyed you in concert, your are truly blessed
Hi Jill,
I attended my first “Jill Scott” concert at the NJPAC, and I had the best time ever. I felt totally connected during the entire preformance, it was as if Jill was singing only to me and everyone else just happened to be there. I would come see you again, again and again whenever you’re in the area.
PS: Will there be another live album???
)
Musically connected,
Jt
I bought tickets to see the March 6 show at NJPAC in Newark, NJ and I had a great time!!!! You sang my favorites Come See Me, Whenever You’re Around, Wanna Be Loved, Fact Is. I really enjoyed the show. The band and background vocalist were awesome!!!! This was the 3rd time that I’ve seen you perform live( NJPAC Mar. 2001, Suger Water Festival NJ 2005, and yesterday) and each time gets better and better. Keep it up! Luv ya
Jill,
This is your Aunt Vickie again reaching out to you. No matter what, you’re my niece till the day I die. My mother, your grandmother passed away and you weren’t there! You’re a Scott and need to put aside all the negative talk that have been put into your ears and come to find your roots. You’re a Scott and have the same blood. We don’t want your money we have our own houses, cars and jewlery. We just want you to be part of the Scott’s family and get to know us, you just might be surprise. You speak of family often and we don’t understand why you don’t reach out to the Scott’s. We love you anyway! God forgave our sins, why can’t you forgive your father. Shame on you! You have some beautifuly cousins that are your peers and they don’t understand why you don’t get to know them. You also have two beautiful half sisters you should get to know. They speak of you often and don’t understand why you ignore them. “How can you wake up in the morning with a smile on your face” Please call me.
856-627-0367. Love you Your Aunt Vickie
May Allah (swta) continue to bless you. Thanks for the relaxing vibes while listening to your artistry as I drive, wind down from a long day, and comtemplate the beauty of life, especially with YOU in the world.
Thank You Jill for the best performance that I have ever seen. The concert in Philly was amazing. You are the real thing.

Hey Jill Scott!
Would love to sing your songs but your sheet music isn’t published. Why not?
And I Heard!
That song needs to be recorded and distributed immediately. Greensboro will NEVER be able to forget that performance. That sound was beyond amazing. And you definitely work with an awesome group of people. Much, much, much love to you, and most assuredly much respect.
I must say ur show was off the “chain” in Richmond last nite. I just happen to be sittin behind the young lady that yelled out in the middle of the love song.(nice comment) I love how u kept it real. That was the best d#*9 show I have seen in awhile…..lookin’ forward to HBO series….
peace

Hey Girl,
I address you like that because through your music I feel a girlfriend connection that goes down deep. Your music has uplifted me, relaxed my mind, and comforted my soul in the best and worst of times. You are a gem to the industry. I was blessed to see you in concert when you came to Philly in 05 at the Tower (Upper Darby) I almost threw my shoe at you,(laugh) and yes from the balcony!!! Jill keep doing what you do, cause I’ll always be listening.
I just witness the greatest show every on sunday March 16th when Jill was here in Richmond!!!
She made me feel so beautiful as a strong grown woman! i love her music and would love to see her in concert over and over again!!
Jill, Thank you for soothing my soul and providing me with an outlet through your music. ive used your songs as a form of therapy.
Ms. Scott,
Well damn Girl!!!
I saw you on 3/19/08 in Pittsburgh and I hope you trust me when i say, This was the best concert i have event attended. You are an amazing singer, others do not sound the same live as they do on thier cd, however you were better live!!!! You came back out and said you wanted to sing one more for us but you were horse and for us to cross our fingers. Girl ….. you killed it. Horse or not.
I am so thankful there is still true talent in the industry.
I Just Love that song Crown Royal im still singin it.
its just a Metaphor for somethin i Want More.
love you
Jill, I am your number one fan. I know you hear that quite often but that’s the only way I can refer to myself when I mention your name! I am 16 years old and I have been listening to your music since you first came out. I remember when you appeared on Sesame Street and Girlfriends. I love your voice, your style, I just love you as a woman. Every single album that you have made is on my ipod. I have every cd and I can’t wait to see you in concert! All I can ask for you to do is continue to make great music. I aslo want to add one more thing. You did a fabolus job on Why Did I Get Married!
Love,
Kelsey
Dear Jill,
I enjoy listening to your music and I admire how you turn your poetry into songs and real music. I am a student majoring in biology pre-med. at Alabama State University however I have always been musically inclined (singing) and I write poetry in my spare time. I want to get into song writing and I was wondering if you had any pointers, tips, or words of advice on how to turn your poetry into lyrics for a song. I know you dont know me from Eve but I would greatly appreciate words of wisdom. Many blessings and much love to you.

Tonight is the night for Chicago! I have been waiting patiently for this opportunity to expericence “The Real Thing In Stereo!!!!” We have sold old BOTH shows in the Chi and Jill I am sure that you will not diasappoint! God Bless You!!!!!!!!!!
WOw, JILL SCOTT is a legend. I am a great fan of you ms.Scott. I love your poems, your songs. I want you to know that you have inspired me to be great…just like you. Maybe not money wise, but I know that you are rich inside. ANd that is just that you have encourage me to obtain. RICHess in the inside”
Thanks Jill Scott./
Continue on your calling. I appreciate and I am sure GOD does also
Take care
SC
seen you sat in chicago! 1 word! WOW
Jill, your words and your voice always warm my soul. Ever since I heard “Long walk” I was hooked. Each of your albums represent a different period of my life; I look back to each album and I smile as I remember whenever I was down I played your music and it brought me back on up. Between being single to the rocky road of marriage you music keeps me rolling. You have such a gift and I thank you for sharing it!
Much love, Karen
Everything that you’ve every made, done, composed, whatever I’ve absolutely loved because it was two hundred and fifty percent REAL! I love that and I love your music. My favorite piece of yours would have to be The Thickness. Growing up, I experience everything in the poem, not until I got older is when I started to see the importance of my hips and breast. It is not just something to explore during sexual acts and exploited in music video. But it is beautiful and precious thing that God gave women to nourish and carry our children. Yet when you have young girls mature physically before time, there becomes confusion on how she should carry this new development. And because we have the television rasing our kids, girls expose themselves improperly. Like you said, I know, I’ve been there, done that, wrote the book, and bought the t-shirt. And I live down south, men down here love meat on their women’s bones. So I’ve been experiencing this for a long time…shamefully.
A lot of times when I listen to your music I turn to the radio and say “JILL STOP READING MY MIND!” lol. I haven see you in concert YET, but I will as soon as I get some extra cash and a concert is a little closer to my location. But I just wanted to say JILL…keep doing what you do best. And nevermind what people say and do to you, keep your head up. You are the best…comparable to all the greatest, Billie, Etta, and Mya Angelo.
You should do a contest for a fan to meet you in person. I would love to be that one to win!

I went to see Jill Scott in concert on Sunday, March 23, 2008 in Chicago. When I tell you that was the best concert I have ever attended in my life. I love music, so I attend concerts all the time. But, I must say that Jill Scott is such a professional, I can appreciate the fact that she gave us a continual musical experince. It was great. I love her music and I appreciate that she is so humble and down to earth. Thank you Jill Scott for bringing us your gift. God bless and continued success. Stay encouraged.
I am a writer with The Temple News, the college newspaper at Temple University. With her current tour and considering she attended Temple, we’d like to do a profile of Ms. Scott, but I am having difficulty finding who is her publicist. Please contact me.
I saw you last night and you were AMAZING, AWESOME, TREMENDOUS, SPENDID, BREATHTAKING, AND AWE-INSPIRING. Truly you are a gift from the master, and he has given you a wonderful gift that you use so effortlessly. I just want to say thank you for sharing yourself me. You helped me in ways you couldn’t imagine. All your art (music) helps me. I’ve been a fan for day one since I head exclusively (the first thing I ever heard from you), and will be one until I die! Continue to be blessed Jilly from Philly! Peace!
Wow! Your words have been so inspirational in my life alone. I listen to you when I drive to work and it motivates me to have a good day. Everything you write is so real. Thank you for blessing my ears and mind. Continue to be blessed.
Rhonda H
My boyfriend and I, are semi-long distance relationship. Once I heard Crown Roayl! That became our song. When I miss him, I’ll send him the lyrics. You’re hands on my hips, pull me right back to you. You’re in so deep, I’m breathing for you….. just to get him going. Let him know what’s waiting for him. Or he’ll be like have my Crown Royal on Ice when I get there. I already know the deal.
Jill, LOVE your music. I enjoyed your concert at the Orpheum – a memorable experience. Keep doin’ the dang thang…
sometimes I wonder, do U know, how far your music goes? I live far, far away and I fell in love since I’ve listen your CD! I started with “Beautifully Human”, then got a (neverending) crush for “Who Is Jill Scott” which 4 now is my fav. and then I just went to music store and bought them. “The Real Thing” I’ve order from UK, so I would have this earlier than others in my country.
and now they say U will come to Poland in July and it makes me soooooo happy – I can’t even express it, how I feel since yesterday! it’s like one of my biggest dreams came true!
U gave me so much joy, so much wisdom and love with your music – you’re 4 real the REAL THING – your art can’t be overappreciated!
See U soon, I hope.
U’re the Queen of my heart.
do U really read all of these? It would b nice to know. And short mssg from U would be like a blessing.
God bless U, Jill!
My favorite albums are Collaborations and The Real Thing. Can’t wait for the next!
Jill–Let us share your music on our site! Our site promotes women and inspires the positive. We can think of no one better to have playing on this site than you! Of course linking back to this site. If this is possible let us know – thanks
Girl, you know you are sure enuff bad!! Your music and your demeanor are explosive. Keep it coming- much love and God’s grace on you.
I fell in love with the man that played “long walk” to me back in 2002 and “the way” quickly became our song. We danced to it at our wedding. We got to see you in the UK and that was great. Now our 3 year old Son asks for the “whatever” song. I think he enjoys being able to say whatever as I usually don’t let him!
Please come out to Hawaii.
May God continue to bless you an your talent. Your words are just amazing and helps me to realx after an f***** up day or when I’m relaxing with my man(Crown Royal and Epiphany) Keep up the good work and I can’t wait to check out the show!
hey my name is jonna i am 9 and when i grow i want to be just like you write me back when you get this

since the beginning “who is jll scott”……..my husband and i were fans. we bought front row to your first concert in l.a. but you claimed your dislike for interacial couples. …to date “who is jill scott”..first and last cd purchased…first cd on the 101 highway.
….uncomfortably disrespected
much luv from Italy…. would love to know when you’re planning to come perform over here… hard to find a “contact us” on this site….
° keep speaking with your soul °
Hey Jill,
Hope all is going well for you! Thank you for making music that 3 generations in my family can all enjoy together. What a pleasure it was to be tour manager for you on the Salem Orbe tour with your first album. If you ever need a tour manager again, please connect with me again!

Poem by Patty Taffie:
He couldn’t pay “our” electric bill
I’m busy; I have a run to make
I pay the electric bill and see him
jammed up, jelly-tight against
Florsheim shoe store on G-town Ave.
WHAT?
I feel like I’ve known you all my life. Yah I know we have never met personally (maybe spirits touched) Who is Jill Scott?(that person you break your kneck to go see (when she performs) like a favorite cousin at a family reunion) Beautiful Human (Even though she sweating giving her all singing under the hot lights she gives us one of those beautiful smiles) The Real Thing(lyrics that are personal,uplifting,thought provoking,W.O.R.D.S ….(woman of real desire speaks)
Hello Jill,
(Super 911!)
I love your latest album. Love it!
Though many of the songs enhanced the romance in my “True Love” relationship, it has now turned to a dark side. I am having a hard time learning how to fall out of love; because I am no longer loved. It’s tearing me apart. Can you help me with any motivational or inspirational experiences that have helped you to hurdle this type of mountain? Your thoughts are so pure and to the point. Please help…..Ms D
And I heard
I am that I am. So spiritual, so present, so his presence. It really tells of your connectedness. Thankyou for being a light. Thankyou for being his light. I will never forget it. This is truly a track we need. Thankyou for your obedience. Thankyou for sharing.
Hello Jill,
Let me first say, that your music and your poetry books have helped me through some rough times. You are a positive peace of me. Not to mention im always stopped on the street, everyone says that you are my long lost twin. It is a honor to mistaken 4 u. My godbrother and his wife are friends of yours. Terence and April Reddick, his wife has made dresses for you and both Erykah Badu. Im disappointed that I didnt get the opportunity to attend your concert while you were at the The Grove in Anaheim, it was my birthday month (February 28) Let me know when I can get to the next concert or poetry reading . I would love to just sit and chat and show you my own poems that I write. Ive been published twice.
P.S.
I have included my myspace url, if you ever want to check it out. you are one of my friends already.
God Bless. Keep Doin It Girl!!!!!!!!!

Jill, thank you for “The Real Thing”. It was my Mother’s Day gift to myself and it’s comforting to know that there’s someone else going through what I’m going through. I got divorced last year and couldn’t be happier. Your CD was the icing on my cake! Thank you and may God continue to bless your present and future endeavors.
SIMPLY WONDERFUL…….THAT’S JILL SCOTT.

Hey Jill love you girl
Jill, Oh my Gosh, YOU are so famous. (I know that sound really stupid) I feel like I have been in a closet or so silly not knowing how talented you are. But now we do. You have a gift. Thank goodness you are so willing to share it. It was lovely meeting you on vacation. You were right, the ATV’s were rough, but great! Scott and I are thinking of coming to Houston to see you perform in June. I know it is a reach, but we would love to come back stage and say HELLO! You make me smile, still! Deanna
You are the truth, from head to toe. Your spirit, just like your vocals, are beautiful to my soul and write the blueprints to the foundation of what my heart desires. Thank you.
HEY GURL YOU ARE SO AWSOME TO ME AND I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, I GIVE GOD ALL THE GLORY FOR BLESSING THE WORLD WITH YOUR SOUND. I FEEL YOU 100% ON EVERY
HEY GURL YOU ARE SO AWSOME TO ME AND I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, I GIVE GOD ALL THE GLORY FOR BLESSING THE WORLD WITH YOUR SOUND. I FEEL YOU 100% ON EVERY ALBUM YOU HAVE PUT OUT. PLEASE KEEP MAKING WONDERFUL MUSIC, YOU SURPRISE ME EACH TIME WITH A NEW SOUND AND IM LOVING IT. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER! GOD BLESS YOU GURL AND I PRAY ONE DAY THE LORD WILL BLESS ME WITH YOUR PRESENCE.
Ms. Scott,
My prayer is that this message reaches you one day. I am shedding tears of mixed emotions right now and needed to share (if you don’t mind).
Today, I completed a 5k Run/Walk as my 12 year old daughter watched. This isn’t my first event but it is the first time a family member was present to root me on. What is more special about this event, I finished the race!
This is special because I weigh 205 lbs as of this morning. I have battled with weight ever since my daughter was born and losing every year.
How and why does this pertain to you? You my friend were in my ear from the beginning of the race to the end. Your anthems, “Golden” and “Hate on Me” rang loud and clear when I wanted to stop. For a little bit of sass, “Crown Royal” was played towards the end.
Thank you so much for gifting us with just the right words and melodies for every occasion of life. I will keep my ears open for more spiritual food as you continue to share.
-Ms. Kitty
Crown royal should be a 10 min. I love dat song
Music Royalty, that’s what you are Jill. Greetings and love from Zimbabwe
Jill,
You are amazing! When will “What I Heard” be available for purchase? I cried when you performed that song as an encore at Chrysler Hall in Norfolk a few months ago, and I can’t wait any longer! When can I get it!?
“She was A song he never finished.He knew the lyrics,he just
kept losing the rythm.”
Hey Miss Scott! I just wanted you to know,for what it’s worth,that you reached A Fifty three year old hick with your music.I just bought”Who Is Jill Scott?”
How about that! lol,thanks,Al
Hi Jill,
I’m like your biggest fan I love your music I love who you are. You are truly a GODDESS in my heart your music your words make me feel so good. I listen to you everyday just to get my day start.
Thank you for all that you do.
Love,
M
Crown Royal is hottt! And “Hate on Me” I bump that EVERYDAY because folks need to know! lol
As surely as I send this message of love the tears of love and loss fill my eyes. Sista’ your words touch the souls of women around the world and and as you tell the stories that touch and reflect the experiences of the young and old we know that we are all the same though we are all different. Keep touching hearts, speak from your soul and tell the stories that we all know so well. Though I can not relate to every lyric those that I can, fill me we joy, pain, love and freedom keep going and do not stop!
I love your music and you are very beautiful
First congratulations on all of your success. I wish family reunion would have gotten more airplay. You are outstanding and talented.
Jill,
You really inspire me. I myself am a writer of poetry and a lover of natural and esentric things. I love to write about every day struggles in life as a black woman, writer, mother, and wife. Your really show me that i can take a step out on faith and all can come to what is meant to be.
Thanks for your insipration and words of wisdom

Thank you

Sister,your music is incredible.Keep doing what you are doing. Later.
Hello sister, I think your music is incredible.And your collaborations are tight also.Queen keep raising the bar on what great music is suppose to sound like. Later
Are you the only one that reads your mail from your fans?
Ms. Scott, We are a small film company. We would like to submit a proposal to you about making movies. We have several great scripts and better concepts. We also have accomplished an indie film, so we know the process. WE feel that this would be a very nice situation for both parties. I wanted to submit the proposal and letters to your agent, but I can not find your contact information on IMDB and I tried emailing you on the Hidden Beach site.
On another note, I have seen you in concert twice (Vegas and Houston), you are a great artist, a real artist with real words.
My daughter and I are looking forward to see Jill in Antwerpen on the 14 of July. My daughter and I are big fans . Demi’s birthday is on the 13th of july and she choose a Jill Scott concert above a wij . For a 12 year old that shows real love.
Looking forward to seeing you . If you need a tour guide feel fee to drop us a line .
La Toya and Demi
Thank you, Ms. Scott (I’d really love to call you Jill but we’re not friends in real life, but if you were here I’d gladly offer you a cup of tea).
I have loved your work since A Long Walk came out, and just want to say how we appreciate your amazing talent. Thank you for sharing it with the world. You deserve every success.
The power in the world is from the creators – and you do exactly that. You create. And it affect my life – you calm my commute on my iPod, you entertain my guests at dinner parties, and you even help when I’m doing the chores.
Thank you. Just thank you. I hope you always feel golden, because you really are.
Best regards,
Christine
I would first like to say thank you and God Bless you for all of your many accomplishments and many more to come. I truly appreciate that you are not an artist that made it big, but did not forget about the struggles you endured when you were round the way Jill and not Superstar Jill. But then again, you are still just round the way Jill.
I heard you on the Steve HArvey Morning show a few weeks ago and could barely get any work done as you were talking about the new Butterfly line. Me not only being a DIVA size woman, but also very top heavy I could not wait until the bras wnet public. I could care less about the cost, but the fit you were talking about is exactly what I am looking for. I have been top heavy my entire life, but in the last year it has just been painful. I could not wait until June 1. To my surprise the bras only go up to a DDD. Is there a chance the sizes will go up? I where a J. Yeah it hurt my heart when I heard it too. It is hard to find a bra that fits me comfortably, but also has good support. I can not wait to get home at nights and let loose.
I wish I could have the Butterfly experience. I pray that with the success of the line, will come a wider range of sizes and colors. When I heard you talking about the colors you are looking to introduce I got excited because noone thinks to make a beautiful bras in the larger sizes.
Again much success in all of your endeavors.
Much love,
Ebony T.
Jill u are amazing woman keep up the good work.
Please don’t forget about the lady that have a little more sweetness then my other thick sista.the bra is wonderful but there is girl like me that is larger then a size 44.don.t get it twisted,i love work. I to want buy your bra. i’m a size54DD can u handle that .
love u sista.
Ms. Scott,
I absolutely love you and would be honored one day to work for you! How can this become a reality??
Greetings
This message is for Marketing and or the Sales departments. I visited an Ashley Stewart location near me, which out of the 15 locations you have in Georgia 8 of them are within my range of travel. While in the store I inquired about the Butterfly Bra and was extremely sadden to hear that out of 15 stores in the state, ONLY one(1) location is performing fittings and that one location is the Stone Crest location, not a very convenient location for myself and my friends.
Ok I’ve worked in retail so I know a lot goes into which store will sell certain items, but a “FITTING”, come on you guys have got to do better than that. I don’t even go to the side of town, and neither does any of my friends. Even the sales girl was surprised at the decision made to only have the fitting at one store. For consideration of sales, we are asking you to train other style associates to perform a bra fitting, I worked at Lane Bryant and it’s not hard to do a fitting. I will also be sending this to Jill Scott’s people to let them know how you all are NOT giving this bra the most opportunity it could possibly have. If we are going to put it out there for plus-size, we need to at least make it an equal playing field, and Stone Crest isn’t it.
Thanks for your time
Jill,
I want to say to you that I am completely CRAZY for you. Not like I belong in an asylum CRAZY babe ( had to through that in there)!! You are beautiful in every way. You voice, Your face, Your body and your personality. I appreciate you candor when you are performing. When I heard you tell your story I wanted to run up on stage and drop to my knees and tell you that i would cherish you and make you #1 which you completely deserve!! I wish that I could get to really know you as a person and not just as a performer. This may sound strange, but since you first came out I have been trying to meet you. I am not a stalker kind of meet you, i just want to know the real Jill!! I want to congratulate you on your new marriage. I would be lying to say i wasnt jealous. I knew that a queen such as yourself would not be alone long. You have millions of people who love you, I am glad that you are looking and sounding happy again. It makes me happy when i hear it in your music!! Please take this as a tribute to your wonderful soul and nature and if you ever…… I mean ever……. are needing to chat with someone please send me a line!!!
Stay beautiful from one of you greatest fans!!!!
PEACE!
I, I shiver when ever I listen to your voice. Your songs are like drugs, I can’t miss a dose. Sure I know I am not the subject of any of the words that you use, but I can’t help but imagine. The emotion you convey is special, please don’t ever stop doing what you do.
See you Saturday night at the Jazz Fest! Love ya Jill….
PEACE
I am continually moved by Jill, from the lyrics, the melodies, the voice and the astounding beauty. I have failed each time to see her in concert and for whatever reason I feel its not meant for me to see her in person. Its not the money, but I can’t ever seem to align myself with the follow-through to ever go. I can’t figure it out but since listening to her music, and seeing her hit Oprah on her first time, I’ve just been pleased with just watching her flourish. I’m sure she’s got a bunch of crazies out there (me included) who feel like they relate to her intimatly and so fourth. However, she leaves me breathless in so many ways… and I’m gay… it’s not her physical, (or is it???) its something I cant even make sense of. Nonetheless, continue to impact the world as you have, and spread the warmth your music and gracefulness inspires. One day maybe I will be blessed enough to be in her presence.
Jill Scott is the best. She is a breath of fresh air. I just so inspired. Don’t stop being you. You are someone I look up to.
i just wanted to say thank you for “Beautifully Human.” The words you wrote on that album brought me to and through a season in my life that I will simply never forget. While listening to this CD I fell in love, a love that although my situation has changed, still lives on. Your words allowed me to be introduced to someone that I already knew, but in a whole new way. I know you probably hear it all the time, but thank you, thank you for bringing this eternal love into my life, and allowing me to fall in love all over again each time I hear it.
“Everybody loves the sunshine” and I love your work.
Respect
Jill you feed my soul, your music touches me in place never touched before by any artist. I was watching your concert special on TV one and had tears in my eyes. You are every Black woman, our beautiful Black women. I will be better to mine after watching your gift to us, Black men.
Charles
Hi JILL!!! I LOVE UR MUSIC.. cant wait to see u in Poland – Warsaw. See U There God Bless Dominik
You’re the best that ever happened to my rythmic soul, wo gilrlfriend you rock!!!!!
Hi Jill or whomever is receiving my love.
I’m writing as I used to be in a band called Dharma with Pete Kuzma. He’s the most amazing musician I’ve shared a stage with as well as recorded with in the studio in Philly. It’s great to see he’s sharing so much success with Jill Scott and numerous other famous musicians.
Please tell him I said HI as we lost touch in 95 when I graduated college, left the band, got married, started a family, moved into a house and now play drums in cover bands. It’s all good! The love of music heals the soul. Much love..Mike
salut jill!!
je n’ai malheureusement pas la chance de savoir utiliser ta langue.Mais j ‘espere de tout mon coeur que peut etre tu me comprendras.

I love love for you to read the words. If you get this message please email me and let me know where I can forward the words. Thanks Tiara.
Dear Ms.Jill Scott
My name is Britney Johnson I attend Johnson C. Smith University in Charlotte, N.C. I am a Pre Med Student. I want to become a medical “DOCTOR” specializing in Pediatrics. This would be my second semester at the university. I am writing you because I saw you on t.v. one morning promoting your new bra line, you also talked about the blue’s babe scholarship fund that helps with money for school. I am in need of help to pay for my tuition this fall 2008. I was awarded scholarship money, but the amount does not cover the total cost. I am six thousand dollars away from the total cost. Can your blue’s babe schloarship fund assist me with the cost of my education. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,

To: Jill Scott
You are inspiration to me . Your positive insight to life is beyond words. Your inter beauty shows whenever you express words in poem and song. Your songs gave me strength while I was goin through some hard times. And i admire you for being strong during your private trials.
JILL SCOTT LIVE LONG AND STRONG.
THE TRUE QUEEN OF THE NILE
My heart goes to the pain that was present in your heart at the birth of this project. But I am thankful for the soundtrack to my own experience. I just watched your interview…wow.
I recently heard the term “dirty 30’s”. It was ment to reference sexual freedom. When I think of my life and the real life that happens for many, I liken the term to the harsh and dirty realities that come during ones 30’s.
The last live show that I saw was yours. I was about 8 months pregnant. At the time I was still hopeful that things would work out. Now I am living in the blessing that my, now 3 year old, was destined. There was nothing else about that relationship that was…except for the experience. I wish that it didnt happen…but in that relationship were my “grown-up pills”.
Oh, and I did buy a copy of Allure. I have never, neva bought the mag before. But it had to be done. Come on. The shot was beautiful. The only thing that could have made it better, is if your tresses were natural. But that is the beauty of versatility of black women.
I wanted to say, that the tasteful blend of music, erotica, and words are so appreciated. New mommy doesnt get much…can her music just reflect where her head is when she gets to rides alone in the car with the music like she likes?
Just thank you…for living in the fullness of your experiences and not being ashamed. Thank You.
Have a great gig in Amsterdam tonight, really looking forward to see you at Paradiso!!
Love and Peace, Peter
Just wanted to say that you blew me away with that concert at Brixton Academy on July18th. I was sad that you were ill and could not do the last concert the last time you came but you more than made up for it on Friday. From the old skool love songs, your non stop energy and your double encore showed how much you love doing what you do…..when you came back out on your own and sang….amazing……And I heard…..
Love you Jill, come back soon!
The Flow
that 1st touch was intoxicating, penetrating, sedating, sinning & saving in
the same sensation; i tried my damnest to fight the temptation, our sexual
attraction was my medication it wasn’t a sickness but i fiend for her
thickness, to make me nut up on her gut with the quickness,
but the trick is this wasn’t any ordinary hit it n’ quit, cause after this
there follows another touch, another kiss, another reason to ignore our own
unconsciousness and escape into supernatural bliss, a touch + a kiss + a
suck + a lick= both of us breathing heavy too exhausted to exist,
push back the pussywillows, past the satin sheets and identical pillows, our
body language became the words we couldn’t speak, her silo-huette lips
sucked songs from my soul as i licked her funky emotions with no
self-control, to reminisce about our rendezvous’ and quickies in the
backseat of the whip,
she said the scent of us was her high and she needed a hit, i used to wonder
if she was sprung until one night we were alone when she told me she was,
and said she fell in love and asked if i would cum.
Hello
I have been listenig to your music ever since the first album… U have consistently produced songs that speak to me, through my grownth as a young woman… hope to see you perfoming soon in south africa… God Bless… Love ya
You are the best performer i have ever seen – i nearly fainted the other night in brixton! and i heard…. love it
I love everything you do!!!
From your inspiration for the butterfly bra (best bra ever) to your music in the car or live on stage, U R WONDERFUL!
It is so great to see beautiful and classy full figured woman doing her thang! And doing it well!
Your poetry is like my thoughts in words on paper.
Thank you for being you, real!
Lesly
Words can be used by anyone.
Vibes bounce off us all.
Feelings are something to come to terms with.
But….
A rich blend of all three can make you pause for a second and really think.
You got me thinking.
Jill,
I don’t know if you ever get a chance to read your messages but you are such inspiration. I saw you in concert in NC for my birthday last month. It was the best birthday ever. I and my fiancé love your music. We will be seeing you again next week in GA. Thank you so much for making real music. You are truly a blessed individual. Keep on keeping on and I can’t wait to see you in concert again!
Jill Scott…you inspire me. You inspire me to be Alecia. Because of you and your music, because of your intellectual words, I was able to become confident in myself. You are truly my FAVORITE artist of all time. Your work speaks in volumes, and it’s the truth. I wish there were more artists like yourself out there. I will continue to sing strong and write strong. THANK YOU JILL FOR BEING THE REAL THING!!!
Ms. Scott,
I’d like to congratulate you for providing another soulful and meaningful musical alternative that is at once provocative, soothing and passionate. Your are a gift to those of us fighting the good fight of living life the best we know how. I admire the courage you display in your music when you allow us to see into your soul and experience the joy, sadness, pain, resilience and hope that makes you who you are. Your ability to speak so openly about your feelings of love and the beauty of love is refreshing and inspiring.
I’m an active duty U.S. Air Force member currently serving in South Korea and as I sit here listening to Words and Sounds Vol 3, your music makes me appreciate the love I have for my wife and the life we’ve made together. Tomorrow is our 13th anniversary and instead of feeling down for being away from her, now I’m smiling thinking about the love we have and the wonderful reunion we’ll have when I get home. You’ve helped turn my frown upside down.
You are an extremely talented woman, singer, songwriter and actress. Please keep blessing us with your talents.
Peace and blessings
An appreciative fan
Erick
Jill Scott, I would first and foremost like to congratulate you on all of your success. I am a very big fan of yours. My question to you is: “Did you write your song He Loves Me?” That is one of my favorite songs. You sing from your heart and soul and we call feel it in every song! You’re an inspiration and we are here always!
Saw the concert in ATL – beautiful!
What sticks with me the most is her final song “I Heard It”
HOW can I get that song and those lyrics??
A must have….
Anyone please help.
Thanks

Jill,
Your concert last night was the high-octane inspiration that I needed. Thank you for your depth and honesty!
God Bless you….. Your words are a gift from God… I pray that you continue using it to reach people….
Ms. Scott,
You did your THANG in Kansas City tonight. I don’t think I sat down from the time you came out until the last, last time you exited. Your presents is amazing and such “The Real Thing”. I am a DC girl, so I was loving the little Go-Go session. This was my first time seeing you live but it will not be the last. I had to come home and really listen to your CD again because live music gives the music so much more meaning. You better believe I am purchasing the Paris Live tomorrow. Thank you again for wonderful show.
Jill,
What words could ever express what your music does for me? Honest to God, you touch me. You write as a women should. The way you accurately communicate and express the hearts of women is beautiful. Not to mention you voc’s. Wow! You can do it all, girl. And as a vocalist myself I know how difficult the stuff you do is. You blow my mind. You do it with such ease and confidence. Truly, you inspire. Not only that but, you simply bring me joy. Pure joy! Thank you for using the gift God gave you. It’s such a huge blessing. I’m so thankful that God gave it to someone that would use it for such good. I saw you for the first time Thursday, after being your fan from the beginning. I’m saddened by the fact that this was my first opportunity to see you but, it was well worth the wait. Every expectation I had you met and exceeded. I have everything you’ve even done and listen to you at least once a day. The first time I ever heard you I was driving and “He Loves Me” came across the radio. I instantly felt like a gift had just been given to me. I became an instant fan and will remain. My prayers are always with you and again I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your art.
C-Von
Chicago, Friday night. Jill, you are true WOMAN!!! Real and free, pure essence of a communicator with beautiful overtones of sensuality. Every minute of your concert was energetic and at the same time subtle and sweet. You ‘put it down’ girl. Can’t wait to see you again in concert.
Jill, I got the opportunity to see you for my first time in Chicago 8/8/08. What a blessing!! You are a very talented lady. I have liked your music since the beginning and was glad to spread your CD around to all who had not heard of you then. You are……Jill Scott and stay true to that! I have and will always be a loyal follower of your poetry and music!
Be blessed and stay safe on your tour!
I would follow you to the end of the earth, til time stops and you only hear the hum of the stars. You are fantastic, which is an understatement to the words, lyrics, metaphors and analogies you provide.
It was weird for me. I went to your concert honestly as a means of going to my first concert ever. I thought whether I had fun or not i could say I’ve been to a concert before. I never thought a Brooklyn born and raised tupac, biggie & new edition artist lover–would ever have as much fun as I thought I did. And truthfully, not to brag, but i had women there trying to talk to me and I placed more focus on your concert than the numbers….that may sound weird for a straight man but damn Ms. Scott you really moved me. I thank you for making a 25 year old man from Brooklyn feel soul like he never did before. And you kept it so real that i had to do something extra and search and thank you personally. i hope this does reach you directly so you know how much of an affect your show in Wingate park had on your audience. Thank you for making a new fan out of me and continue to do you and ill make sure ill do me and blast your tunes like the hood dudes blast biggie tracks. Enjoy your day and like your music and appearance…always let the elegance shine.
Dear Jill,
I just want you to know that you are such a source of inspiration to me. I have all of your albums and saw you in Harlem a few years ago at your poetry reading.
Please stay strong, beautiful and positive.
Love,
Christina from Brooklyn, NY
Ms. Jill Scott, I would just like to say that your music inspires me, soo much, It inspires, me to write more, to widen my perspective on life, & it inspires me most importantly to be me. I Love You & keep up the Excellent Work.

But i have to go, but i will always look at tv, just to see u. P.S. Love for ever to Jill Scott
Your songs have taught me how to accept the many ways of receiving love. But at the same time not allowing the sexual aspect of it to blind me where forget about loving myself.
Today I was listening to a radio show (Mo’nique’s) and I heard a song performed by Jill that was absolutely amazing — and perfectly speaks to a situation that I’m experiencing in my life right now. It has a jazzy feel and it was a story about how she was so turned on by a man — the way he walked acrossed the room…the straightness of his back. She then talked about how he spread her limbs from coast to coast (or something like that) referring to their love making. The story ended with her realization that she’s not good for him and he’s not ready for her. Does anyone know what song this is I have spent hours looking for it online to no avail. Please help.
Shiva
Dear Mrs. Scott
Please visit Denmark one day – Ill be there.

I can’t wait to see your next cd because i will be the first one to get it, believe that. Well to tell u the truth i’m been in love with your music every sents i was 8, but i really didn’t understand it at first but until i got older, and i started to understand it by the age of 10, but don’t get me wrong now. I been listen every sents that point at the age of 8, till now. The thing is that i wish i can meet u because i would do anything to be they to see u live. But ever wish can’t come true tho, but i can still wish for that. The name is Diamond, and i been going to an school name WildCats in Virginia, and i move down here in jacksonville Florida.

Thank You
Cross My Mind is the best 4 minutes of music I’ve ever heard!

Hi, I just happen to go out to your website looking for the butterfly bra. I think it is a wonderful and reassuring change for full size women. My concern is can the bra sizes increase? I’m looking to get a much better fitting bra for my daughter. Do you think the bra sizes will increase up to a size 48F? If not, do you know where I can take her to get a bra made for her? Thank you for your time.
hi!
jill scott. i’m korean.
i want to be a singer
i respect you .
i want to visit your concert.
bye! i l love you!! i love your voice, music
byebye!♡
Dear Jill Scott….i don’t know if you will ever read this, but I had planned on purchasing your butterfly bra after I saw your commercial….I was so excited that someone dug deeper and came up with the perfect bra for full figured women ( unbelievabe) 2 months after I saw that commercial I was diagnosed with breast cancer….don’t be sad for me because GOD is GOOD and this road I have traveled since March 2008 in some ways have been a blessing…I’m getting a second chance at life and I know GOD has used me to help other women who are and will go through this. I am asking that you and Ashley Stewart please take that design a little further and don’t forget about the women who have had mastectomys and add pockets to those bras so we can place our prothesis in them and enjoy the comforts and beauty of the butterfly bra. I am a full figured woman and the mastectomy bras need to have bigger straps and better back support…most mastectomy bras seem to be designed for small women…..and if you like you can name it the KIM (laugh) I hope you can do something to make all women who have gone through breast cancer feel more beautiful……because not all of us choose to have reconstructive surgery….and are comfortable with our mastectomy, but it would be nice to have a wonderful bra that still makes you feel like a woman and sexy. This is breast cancer month and it would be nice to see more than ribbons, because so many women are being diagnosed everyday with this disease and anyway shape or form to inhance a survivors life is a great thing and something so small as a pocket in a bra like yours would mean the world to me and others. KIm
Jill you are a musical butterfly…your melonic touch is beautiful, colorful, flyyyer, and desired to be caught in a bottle and treasured…keep doing what you do.

YOUR HAIR LOOKED SO FABULOUS!! I HAD NEVER SEEN A WOMAN WITH A ROUND FACE N THICK (AND ALMOST MY COMPLEXION) THAT LOOKED GOOD WITH NATURAL HAIR. SO I FINALLY DECIDED TO GO WITH IT IN JAN 2008. I THINK THAT MY HAIR HAS BEEN COMING ALONG JUST LOVELY!! I GET A LOT OF HATE BECAUSE OF IT-ESPECIALLY FRM MY MOTHER-BUT I DNT CARE BC I LOVE IT!!

SOUTHERN DIVA
I found her latest album to be a form of therapy, I connected with Jill on so many topics, I too was going thru a divorce the same time she was going thru hers. Needless to say I have cried many tears to her songs, but I also found strength to live again. As devastating as divorce is……you realize that the sun still rises, the birds still sings, and you can still fall in love. Thanks Jill for your testimony.
Hi Jill Scott, I heard your “call”. How can get in touch with you for new apparel designs? Please email with information —Thank you

Even now My daughters ask me to play your CD and they are now 14 and 9. Love ya, Jill keep us enlighten us with your beautiful art and music that come from the soul and not sold by record corp.
From an artist who never made it.

Their soul for gold, their integrity for money.
I appreciate the sunny spirit , the deep thoughts that cause healing.
Jill stay true to self when there’s noone left.

Peace to you and all your future endeavors, keep being socially clever, keep giving us Whatever, Whatever,Whatever.

Hey Jill
I just wanted to comment on the butterfly bra. I was very hesitant at first because that bra looks huge. I was planning my wardrobe for my first Jamaican vacation, and packed many strapless dresses, and i didnt want the look with the clear strap, so i rushed to Ashley Stewart,hoping the bra would work for me…..I looked fabulous, and I wasnt in any pain, or feeling frumpy..GOD BLESS U……i luv my butterfly
“Jill Scott is a very intertaining artist and I really appreciate her work and the effort she puts into creating such beautiful songs. As a writer myself, i consider her to be a great motivational speaker.

hi there lady it beenalong time coming i here you are going to get married again iam happy for you god bless
lady lady you are the best i love your music i miss you alot you are a beauite god have bless you
Jill, I was listening to you on the Mo’Nique Show today. Before you left the air, you stated to some degree that you don’t feel appreciated sometimes. I wanted to call in but I’m at work. But I want you to know you are truly loved & appreciated by so many strangers, it’s not even funny. Your lyrics & soulful tunes hits right to the heart of many of us. I was watching one of the awards show & one of the actresses who won made a statement at the end of her acceptance speech. She thanked the fans. She said she enjoys doing her thing for us. I was touched enormously. Please know that we know you do it for us. You share your life with us thru your songs. Trust me girl, your efforts will never be in vain. You are now a legend to many of us, especially us Philly fans. You make us proud & I’m proud of you & all that you do. God is good & I pray that God continues to bless you in your life, in your career, in motherhood & in love. You truly are an inspiring woman. I need to correct that. You are a woman, phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, that’s you. Peace & love, girl.
Hey lady, I am not a big poetry reader but I bought your book and if I may add that it spoke words that I wanted to say to some and pointed out reasons for most. You are an inspiration in my life and I am happy that God has created such a gifted woman such as yourself. Take care and love life to the fullest…
~Yet so far away but not forgotten~
Jill, you’re an angel, thanks for your songs.
When are you going to come to Madrid?
I love you,
Raúl
Hay I am 32 years old and Let me start by saying that you are the best looking wamen I have seen in a very long time I have almost every song you have made I have been a fan of yours every since your career started. i just hope to see you one day so I can tell you what i always wanted to say to you. from your number #1 fan. God Bless.
Jill, God didn’t make a mistake when he chose you to birth a son. I wish for you a blessed delivery and a wonderful marriage. You are a gift to me. Your songs are the lullabies for my lonely nights and the bounce for my busiest days! Thank you for taking your art seriously enough to share it and perfect it with each breath!! You rock sista.
May God continue to richly bless you as you embark on this new phase of your journey called motherhood. Tears and triumph, belly laughs and sweet whispers await you as you go to your next level of evolution!

Wtg Jill,
You are indeed the best!!!
Jill,
First I’d like to say congratulations on the birth of your baby boy Jett. I love the # 1 Ladies Detective Agency, I think it’s such a great show. I just love your voice and the spirit you bring forth when you perform. I try to see you every time you come to DC. I saw you last year when you were on tour and at the end of the show, you sang this great song about God. You said you were nervous to sing it because it was something new and you didn’t know if folks would like it. Girl I don’t know why you were nervous, but I’ve gotta tell you I LOVED that song. I’ve been waiting to see if you would release it as a single. I don’t remember the name of the song, something like “I am here”? I hope you do release it some time. I know you’ve got a lot of things going on right now and I wish you the best.
Love,
Tonya
I just want to say to Jill…I have never heard your music before and just really started to get into you as an artist with the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency and I must say…I LOVE THAT SHOW it is my new addiction…and it inspired me to get out and hear your music…incredible..you have a beautiful voice and such a good vibe about you…keep up the good work and Hopefully there will be more No 1’s in the future on T.V. Screen and Music for you…
Jill:
You are the Real Thing. You are fabulous. I love all of your work (music, acting and poetry). May God bless you and your family! Can’t wait to see pics of Jett.
Jill, i really must say u were born to sing my life, i love you and i wish u all the joy and success of this world

Hi,
why there’s no Jill scott page on Facebook ?!
Jill, last year, you performed here in Chicago. My first time seeing you perform and I was in awe. A true soul sister! But it was the last encore before you left the stage. You said – forgive my paraphrase – “I think I understand.” You said it was a message given you in those ‘wee’ hours of the morning. A message that wouldn’t allow sleep, or be ignored. You passed the message on to the few in the audience who remained. I heard it then and I continue to hear it. Thanks for passing on the message!
Love your Words
I cant wait for the tour kudos on #1 ladies det agency. great season. love u much

My name is Quinton Williams. I am a Freshman at Claflin University. Just recently, I was asked to research a topic of my choice in which I picked Neo soul and interview someone in the field. I would really appreciate if Jill Scott would answer these questions. Its only a few. I comletely understand if you cannot.
1. What exactly is neo soul?
2. How does it, if at all, affect your everyday life?
3. Do you relate to neo soul? Why?
4. How does neo soul appeal to you above other genres?
5. Neo soul is known for its laid back style and realness. In your opinion, is it just a genre or can it be considered a lifestlye?
6. What is your favorite neo soul song and why?
7. Who is your favorite neo soul artist and why?
8. Do you think it requires talent to write or perform neo soul? explain.
9. Are there any qualifications, as far as education and networking abilites, required to be a neo soul artist?
10. How is technology used in neo soul?
11. How did neo soul begin? How did it originate?
I understand you are busy people and it may not be possible to help me, but thank you anyway.

And your smile is like a sunrise so big and bright. Man that’s a sight to see. Your voice is so smooth and soothing like a warm breeze on a summer night. I don’t need the moon, your the light. A strong woman of will and beauty so bright. That it turns the earth into a new star. You just not a entertainer you keep it real. My heart glows when I hear your voice, that’s how I feel. Your not just a star you’re you. You are. Jill Scott.

As someone who has lived in Botswana for a few years, I’d just like to say congratulations for giving your role as Mma Ramotswe a lot of quality, warmth and credibility! I hope you had a good time in Gaborone and will be able to ’spread the word’ about’ Botswana in lots of other ways too. Now that I’ve listened to your voice on this website, I’ve been impressed by that too – wonderful!
Best regards!
I’m your biggest fan in/from Indonesia.
Hey Jill,
First of all I LOVE your music, but you were on my mind in a sisterly kind-of- way this week. Not sure what kind of space you are in right now, but know that people love you and that you are a true gift from God to sooo many of us! Stay encouraged! Can’t wait to hear what this precious baby inspires you to sing! Whoo!
God Bless!

Miss. Jill Scott i think u are a Beautiful woman your word speak to my sprit and up lefts me to me a better and stronger woman and mother……
I’m a underground hip hop artist still looking for my big break. I thought about giving up a couple of times but I just can’t do it. Last night out of nowhere I had a dream about you. In the dream we were having breakfast and talking about music. I asked you how you made it. You started telling about how you were doing things with The Roots. I began to tell you how I felt as far as not being signed yet. You told me to keep going and never stop until I get signed. In the dream I felt as if I had known you forever. And when I hear your music I feel the same. And I hold that close to me. Thank you for you thoughts. You are my inspiration.
Hi Jill! I was so excited when I heard that you have designed bras for busty women. I checked them out and was disappointed because I saw the smallest band size is 38. I wear a 34G. At any time will you be expanding the range of sizes? It is so difficult to find a good supportive bra in my size. Usually my size is not that supportive because the designers think that someone that size (anything larger than a DDD) has implants which are not as heavy as real breasts. My have permanent dips in my shoulders, horrible posture and chronic back pain all due to lack of support. I hope you are able to expand your sizes to include all types of big-busted women. Thanks for your time and God Bless! BTW, your new movie looks great!
…she’s been degraded, exploited, NOT celebrated….saturated with self-hatred….
You inspire me.

i love jill’s music and voice so much, her poetry, expression, her style, her comic relief, but this website needs to be adjusted, it needs work, And please tell me why there are links to Beyonce on the side, i’m sorry, Jill’s website is her time to shine, I don’t know no other celebrity website with another artist blaring on their website unless their under the same label, I think its disgusting ahd humuliating, …Go to Beyonce’s website, you don’t see Jill Scott, Lets keep this website about Jill Scott, she don’t need to attract fans, her voice and lyrics say it all, and people love it
Hello Ms. Scott ; 1st let me start by saying I am a very sincere fan of your music and your acting career as well. You are truly an inspiration to all women who refuse to conform to “holllywoods” version of beautiful. Thank you for that. Secondly I would like to know if you ever do any speaking engagements that are none related to the entertainment industry? I heard you speaking for the first time on tv with Tyler Perry when the “why did I get married movie” was being released and I was very impressed. I am the director of a womens charity here in Alabama and I would love to have you speak to the women in the group on self esteem and self respect.
May I quote you from your recent Essence magazine column?
You say you “wince”, “feel an inner pinch”, “a sting, like a mosquito under a summer dress”, “betrayed”, “frustrated and hurt” when you see a black man with a white woman!?
As a black AND white woman (from a white mother and a black father) I take offense to your recent article. You should be ashamed of yourself!
Thanks for writing the article – now I know you are a blatant racist!
well i know fans dont do this but im
speacial i need some help with
somethings that are comeing
up againts me so if u find the time
please reach out im a new mother
2 my son is 16months 732 376-7205
this is not a joke so i’ll be waiting
congrats on your blessing from the
heavens:)
I love the concept of the Jill Scott Butterfly Bra! I searched the Ashley Stewart website for my size, but I was unable to find it. Does the Butterfly Bra come is size 36G and/or 38G? Thanks so much!
Ms. Scott — I just saw you on CNN, and you said you weren’t in favor of the “mixing of cultures.” I hope you’ll think a little more carefully about this issue. The word you’re looking for is “miscegenation,” which was a crime in many states until not all that long ago. Miscegenation is the intermixing of races, and white racists killed more than a few black men for committing this
“crime” with white women.
You may say that you were talking about culture and not race, but that’s an illusory distinction. There’s no such thing as “black culture” or “white culture.” There is only “American culture.” I think you should think very, very carefully about the implications of your words, because they were the same words used to justify the “separate but equal” policies this country was burdened with in the last century.
I very much doubt that you want to return to those days, but that is absolutely the consequence of what you’re saying.
Also let me say that I am a white man, and the woman I have loved most in my lifetime is a black woman. She was the most glorious, beautiful, spectacular, wonderful person I ever met…but you seem to think I had no business with her. For shame.
Hello Mrs Jill Scott your music has brought so much impact to me and within my heart everything you sing about comes from your soul and your experiences please email me back Jill to give me some input I am your biggest fan I have a book called A Diamond In The Rough that was just published how can turn my book into a movie like what you did in Sins from a mother you are not only a song writer you are a Dam good actor thats comes from the heart us woman have to learn how to support each other you can purchase my book at iUNIVERSE.com much love and support!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello Jill,
I am responding to your article on black men dating white women. As an accomplished black man. I agree with your comments about the black family being broken down. I see black men dating white women a lot in my profession (basketball), however I feel as though a lot of my co-workers feel as though white women tend to be more submissive. I am not making an (excuse) or anything I’m just saying.
Dear Jill,
I have been a fan of your music for 10 years. I have also supported your acting career whenever I could. However, tonight I have deleted every one of your mp3s from iTunes and will write to HBO to express my wish that they don’t renew your series from last year.
You can rationalize your comments regarding interracial relationships in Essence as ‘honesty’ but it’s racism plain and simple. As the product of a mixed marriage you have broken my heart. Before you start with the bitterness over “white women on pedestals” hundreds of years ago, why don’t you look at the current problem that most black men have being accepted by BLACK WOMEN. Thank God, you weren’t around to write race-baiting articles when Barack Obama’s father and mother were getting together.
I hope one day you can get over YOUR OWN skin color issues so you can accept the love shared by mentally healthy people is colorblind. At the top of your website it says people can come here to hate on Jill Scott; no one can top your hatred now.
An ex-fan
I just want to let you know that I used to be a HUGE fan of your movies, music, and overall thoughts about life. I was a fan UNTIL your Essence Magazine interview on interracial dating surfaced. How can you portray these bad feelings toward a specific race when they did nothing wrong? No one can help who they like or love and you are making white women and black men feel bad about this. I also have a problem with the fact that you are only targeting the white women as your problem with dating black men. What about Latinas, Asians, Arabs, etc? Do you have a problem with them? Didn’t think so.
Please think before you speak, because you are putting this hatred back out in our communities where it may have otherwise not have been.
I went to your first tour at the tower…got all your cds, as I support every Philly artist….and I now I am disgusted with you….Me being the son of a strong proud black man and my beautiful white mother, I take your comments to heart. You are ALWAYS talkin about love…..why should it matter to you who someone loves or not? How long are you going to carry around this feeling that the white people of today are the same ones 400 to 500 years ago? You really need to get over that Bullshit Jill…cuz that’s exactly what’s coming outta your mouth. stay “Golden”.
I listen to every genre of music (even ones most people have never heard about) and you are by far the best female vocalist I’ve ever heard. Your voice gives me chills, especially when I listen to your live album. I’m a very big fan and I want to share my love to my favorite female singer. You’ve inspired me greatly and I just wanna tell you how much I love you and your music. Thanks for all you’ve done and I can’t wait for the new album in August!
you inspire me to do so much in my life!
Ms. Jill! You are truly an inspriation and I admire your talented work. Your strength as a black woman engages me that even during my toughest times there is still light. I look forward to seeing you for the 3rd time on May 30th in Kansas City at the Starlight Theater. May GOD continue to bless you and your beautiful son Jett!
Girl, I just want to let you know that I love your music so much, I ltsen to your music everyday, I clearly remeber being only 13 years old bumping your music in my bedroom everyday after school. your voice is phenomenal I absolutely love you gilrl, keep ya head up.

I’m a poet from this small city, Eunice, LA, and I drive 2 1/2 hours every weekend for my Slam Poetry Team Practice in New Orleans. My team’s name is NOYS(New Orleans Youth Slam) Six young poets trying to reach the world through rehearsing the art recorded in our tablets. Next month we’ll be going to LA to compete in the spoken word festival, Brave New Voices(July 19-24). I know you’ll be out here for the Essence Festival and all…and I know it’s a lot to ask because I know you’re a busy woman being JILL SCOTT and all…but I’d like to invite you to our open mic night that Saturday. It’s held at this cafe/book store called the BlackStar (3211 General Meyer, West Bank). I’m not asking for money or anything, I just know that we all are fans….dreamers. You can look us up on Facebook…Make Some NOYS.
Have a blessed day.
Love,
One more fan:: Asia-Vinae
You
Are
Beautiful :]
Jilly from Philly – Rock on with your bad self gyul!!.
Love what you have offered the world; been a fan from inception and may God’s blessings continue to rain on you.
I want to share some information that may make Jill’s next concert even more live. At the Essence Music Festival this year, I went solely to see Jill. The volume was so loud that the audience could not hear any of the music…only the low constant note of the bass. She is incredible! I only wish I could have heard the music and Jill over the “noise” of the overly-loud system. Several other fans shared the same experience and felt the same way. Just some food for thought. I will also submit the same information to the Louisiana Superdome and Essence.
I love your music Ms. Scott. I have “The Real Thing and Collaborations” on my ipod. I listen to your music daily here in the desert. I hope you get to see this message. Have you ever visited the troops? Or better yet have you thought of writing a song for the Soldiers? If anyone can find the right words, it would be you Ms. Scott. Take care.
