Jill Scott - Beautifully Human: Words and Sounds, Vol. 2

Not as good as her debut

I loved Jill's debut CD, and it's been a long time between buying CDs of hers for me. This was the next one, and while it's very good - several tracks stand out, with "Golden" and "Can't Explain" being my two favorites - it doesn't measure up to the debut at all. That's not entirely a bad thing - her debut CD was so good, it just about set an impossibly high bar. It says more about how good that CD is than anything about this one.

So if there's any kind of "buyer beware" with this, it's just to rein in the expectations a bit if you have her debut CD and enjoyed it like I did. "Who Is Jill Scott?" is still the gold standard. August 22, 2008

my favorite

i've purchased all of her albums and i enjoy all of them, but this one is my favorite. this is one you can listen to when you just want to zone everything else out and listen to great music. July 15, 2008

Jill Scott the best forever

I just love every thing by Jill Scott.
She reminds me of Patti Labelle and
Whitney Houston, they can sing the same
song 1 hundred times and it's never the
same.That's absolutely brilliant. April 13, 2008

My First Real Exposure To The Force Known As Jill Scott

Let me say right off the bat that I have listened to a lot of Jill Scott's stuff over the years but this is the first album I have ever purchased.

The song that sold me to this album was "Golden." I personally find it very inspirational and uplifting! The rest of the album was average to above average. "Golden", in my view, is the only standout track.

Many reviews say this is Jill's weakest album. Well, if this is her weakest, then I want to hear her best because her "weakest" impressed me enough to purchase her stuff in the future! January 18, 2008
