The cold bloodied thing about Jill is that she be smiling when she sings, giving the false illusion that what she is doing is easy. Nawwww. Whitney Houston used to smile when she was singing too. Cold thing about her too (along with MANY others) is that Whitney sang at such a high level that if actually looked easy. (but it wasn't)Many of the masters of song did that, would not disrespect Jill by saying what she does is effortless, cause that would imply (falsely) that she doesn't or hasn't worked very hard to perfect her craft. But in my opinion, and I say this as a musician, she is at a level where she now doesn't have to "think" about it, but can just let it flow. But take it from me. What she's doing isn't easy, by any stretch of the imagination. Love her. and loved her from the "MOMENT" I first heard Long Walk back then. I say these words as a fan of hers and as a full time professional musician/educator/producer of 20+ years myself. Go Jill!!!
I applaud that! I IMMEDIATELY fell in love with Long Walk bc the beautiful complexity of it just ENTHRALLED ME! STILL AM GRIPPED BY IT!!! Pittsburgh on the Square - Pittsburgh PA September 2000.
+TheSisterStrong They were actually told to stay in their seats because the show was being recorded and broadcast, but clearly whoever decided that hasn't seen Jill live
I hear you ! I danced through two whole James Brown shows, believe it or not, in 1965 and again in 2005 ! Yes, I'd be up for her, too, and the amazing Band. (Maybe some Snarky Puppy guys ? Top notch, anyways.)
The most wonderful JILL SCOTT everyone clap your hands together and give respect to one of the most versatile singers to come along in modern Jazz music
You know… I didn’t realize how good her voice was until seeing recent posts of her performances like this one. I remember her on Sunday Best but at the time she didn’t really stick out to me but still thought she had a really good voice. I saw the clip of her Kim Burrell tribute and was shook. She is so smooth with her tone and the control in her delivery is just incredible. She really needs a good PR team to strongly promote her along with a good stylist and talented songwriters that can create songs that hones in on her particular sound. Of course, this can be expensive but I think if a good music producer saw what an awesome vocalist she is, she could definitely get the backing she deserves.
Why the Phluck are these ppl sitting down??? This must have been a show on a Friday after a long week. Nah forget that! This audience insane. This was Everythanggggg! Oh I love Jilly from Philly xxx
+Sherina. D.C They were told to stay seated because the show was being recorded and broadcast, but once Jill get's going you can't help but to stand up and party
I can't even recall how I discovered this amazing lady, but wow! If only the world were filled with such high quality music. Absolutely love it! And as a drummer, that groove, those accents and stabs! Life is great!
Might just be the most groovy, skillful and simply enjoyable 9 minutes of live music I have ever heard. What an artist and what a Live band! Regards from a Norwegian fan
Streaming. Upscale for performing with the best out of the pocket. Systems of excellence .Running the scale for musical geniuses. JILL SCOTT working her crown. QUEEN

Pittsburgh on the Square - Pittsburgh PA September 2000.
EVERY SINGLE PERSON ON THAT STAGE is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS WHAT?!
I really HATE people who sit down at hype concerts.... I had a broken pelvis when I went to see Erykah in concert.... I stood up for the whole thing.
+TheSisterStrong they probably save the energy for their most fave songs but yeah that song is so flowy good!
+TheSisterStrong They were actually told to stay in their seats because the show was being recorded and broadcast, but clearly whoever decided that hasn't seen Jill live
TheSisterStrong and India Arie

Rashid Williams is so underrated. He's so dope on kit!!
I've watched this at least 20 times already. Jill Scott is an amazing artist!
I love when she goes into what I'll call "stank face" mode. Thats when you know she's feeling it and gonna make sure you feel it too. whew, my gawd!
The musical talent is out here most Bands just don’t perform the Show as a well rehearsed concert like we used to
it’s infectious!
