Jill Scott's The Light of the Sun Album Review



BOOM.. 

BOOM.. 

BOOM.. Da da deee di.. My tribute to Jill Scott! 

Aaaah I can NOT express how much I love the new Jill Scott album! 


The sound is fresh, up beat and soulful! 


Jill has graced us with such a vulnerable look into her life throughout The Light of The Sun.

Scott recently gave insight of her album in a interview with reporter at the BET awards, "The album is poetry to music... a woman's journey.. emotions.. ."

I had to ask myself after each tracked played if Jill read my personal journal. 


      *Wait is this me singing on this track?? Oh, yeah other women go through this too??*

Here are some MY favorite tracks: 

DOPE Burberry Glasses.. I love it! 

*Le Boom Suite Vent- This song is literally BOOM.. Miss Scott delivers the news to her lover, it's over!  The track begin with a force underlined with a heavy bass line. As the track progresses, Scott changes the melody and tone of the song to a sweet sassy jazzy flow.. 


*So Gone (What My Mind Says) featuring Paul Wall  -  hmmmmmmmmm this song is so hawwth! I will let Scott describe the song for you.. Hmmm yeah... Please click on the link below.
                     So Gone (What My Mind Says) Jill's description of the song.


*Missing You - I honestly can say this is my FAVORITE song on the album.. This song was a product of a jam session where Jill begins scats & coos softly into the microphone. The melody picks up with slight African drumming. She sings about the absence of her lover and presence.. *Haven't we all been here before?* 

I recommend YOU.. *yes, you right there* purchase this album if you appreciate soulful music!
