Jill Scott - The Real Thing: Words And Sounds Vol. 3 [CD/DVD Combo] [Deluxe Edition]

DELUXE CD/DVD EDITION. 2007 release from the Soul diva. A major player in the Neo-Soul armada that took both the Pop and R&B worlds by storm in the late-'90s/early-2000s, Jill Scott got her start touring with the likes of Erykah Badu and the Roots. With a background in both poetry and musical theater, Scott came at the genre from a fresh perspective, and her 2000 debut album made her a household name. Album Description

...like cleopatra jones, she could getcha straaaiiigggtttt - yeah

she's on fire....from the beginning that starts w/Who is Jill Scott, to the Experience Jill Scott 826+, the classic Beautifully Human (by the way if anyone knows where the remix to Cross My Mind off of Beautifully Human can be found, please let a sista know) to Collaborations and now the noir comeback - The Real Thing.... The Real Thing reminds me alot of Who is Jill Scott as far as it's darkness....i love it, i cry to it('my love'), relax to it('only u, insomnia) i think as i listen to it(how it make u feel).... she is gifted w/knowing how to tap into the infinite possibilities that music and lyrics have to offer...and she delivers. Check out her latest, Jill Scott live in Paris...the deluxe version contains the live CD....alot of female artists have come out w/new projects this year...and uh....none of them, none of them holds a candle to this Sista! i can care less how they get to platinum status as fast as they are getting there...Hidden Beach needs to make a more greater effort to promote the music of This Jazzy, Hip-Hop, Opera-singing, Poetic, Rock Chick Diva!!!!!!! she badddd.....she supa-baddd....she has said, and i agree, that she got her Bruce Leroy on....she knows exactly who she is....The Real Thing....

Mixed review

Enjoyed the music CD. Disappointed in the DVD. I expected music videos of the new songs on the CD, not of songs from Ms. Scott's older CDs. February 24, 2008

Jill Scott Has Got It Goin' On!!!!!!!!

I have loved Jill Scott ever since her first album in 2000. Buy it -- you will not be disappointed. She is definitely the REAL THING!!! Go Jilly from Philly! I have tickets to see her in Washington, DC in March AND I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I already know it is going to be an EXPERIENCE to be had! Her music moves me in so many ways. I am really feeling this Sista! January 31, 2008

She is phenominal and gives it to you everytime. This diva is hot and rising further to the top.
