HIDDEN BEACH RECORDINGS JILL SCOTT RETURNS WITH HER LATEST CD,
BEAUTIFULLY HUMAN: WORDS AND SOUNDS, Vol. 2
The Platinum Plus-Selling Soul Singer Unveils Her New Body of Work
Fans have been waiting for it. The music industry has been
anticipating it. And now three time Grammy-nominated vocal sensation Jill Scott is set to deliver yet another collection of luminous and poignant songs as her new CD, Beautifully Human, Words And Sounds Vol. 2, is unveiled August 31 on Hidden Beach Recordings.
Scott, who after nonstop promotion of her 2001 multi-platinum-selling
debut CD, Who Is Jill Scott? Words And Sounds, Vol. 1, took time off
to exhale. She married her soulmate and enjoyed life as a newlywed.
Scott, a former Broadway actress (Rent), also quenched her thespian thirst by doing some acting and, of course, she carved out some downtime to write and create music. After embarking on other creative outlets, the multi-talented performer is ready and excited about expressing herself again through song. While Scott got back into the mindset to craft enchanting music and inspiring lyrics, she appreciated all the positive vibes and patience her fans gave to her.
This alluring wordsmith has again created songs that are nurtured in
the heart and sung with love. In fact, the first single, "Golden," talks
about freedom and empowering oneself to live to the fullest, to look
at life as if it is golden. Scott will shoot the music video
for "Golden" in the coming weeks.
For this CD, Scott turned to some of the same producers from Who Is
Jill Scott?--James Poser, Andre Harris and Vidal Davis, Ivan and Carvin
("Mama's Boys"). She also sought a fresh approach by going into the
studio with producers she had long wanted to collaborate with such as
Ant Bell, P-nut, Pete Kuzma, and Raphael Saadiq.
Taking her music back to its grassroots, Scott will debut her new
work at intimate listening sessions across the nation. And though
Beautifully Human has yet to be released, Scott is already receiving media
coverage.
She will be featured on the cover of the August issue of Essence
magazine. During her three-year hiatus, Scott remained in the public
eye. She completed a movie for Showtime titled Cavedwellers with Kyra
Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon, and appeared in an episodic arc (4
episodes) of the UPN's series "Girlfriends." She also secured a publishing deal
with St. Martins Press.
But Scott's focus now is pure music. Her vision is Beautifully Human.
YAA! I thought my girl got droppe.d She is absolutely one of my favorite singers of all time. If yall don't have 826+ you need to get it! One of the best Live recorded albums of all time.
I'm an avid fan of Jill Scott... On some real stuff if a woman wrote a song for me like she did Lyzel (husband), i'd propose to her on the spot... I can't wait till she comes out with this new album. Hidden Beach has some quality artist on roster... ya'll need to check out Kindred too.
I love Jill Scott!! She's one of my favorite artists ever. I was wondering what happened to her, but I'm so glad that she's releasing another album. After listening to her previous albums, I was not disappointed at all. So, I'm going to make sure I'll buy that CD the first day it comes out.
