Posted By: How May I Help You NC on September 06, 2024 November 28th, 2011 / Stephane It’s 4:40pm on a Wednesday afternoon and I have 22 minutes left, which hopefully leaves enough time to make a cup of tea and clear the kitchen sink. In 22 minutes Milk + Honey will have the pleasure of interviewing Miss Jill Scott just before her two UK concerts next week, and yes I mean Jill Scott. Grammy award winning, soul/jazz/R&B songstress, songwriter, poet, actress, woman and mother Jill Scott. 22 minutes left until I’m to about hear Jill Scott’s voice come through the speakers of my Samsung GSII saying “Hello.” A soft, yet warm voice at the other end of the phone greets me; it’s her. In this moment I want to declare my love for her and tell her how much she makes me laugh, cry, smile, think and feel, but I guess this is all a bit too heavy for a first interview so I ask her whether she is excited about coming back to the UK. She says how thrilled she is and how she enjoys performing here because “the audience is so alive and is so pleasant to be around.” Now the wake of this UK tour comes after the release of Jill’s fourth studio album The Light of the Sun, which came out back in June 2011. It did very well in its opening week debuting No. 1 on Billboard’s Top 200 chart selling 135,000 units. Many of her UK fans haven’t experienced the fourth album live yet, so her two concerts here are very big deal. Jill sounds as if she can’t wait to get on stage; “everything about the performance” and we should “expect a great show with lots of…energy.” “I’m hoping that people will get married to my songs, make love to my songs and give birth to my music and cry sometimes…[and] if I can make you shake your butt a little bit and have a good time too…if I can do that, then I’m on the right path.” AND THEN---> http://www.itsmilkandhoney.com/exclusive-j...
