The energy continues to ramp up until you are completely lost in Jill’s magnetic vocals and the funk and jazz induced melodies. Seducing you with the opening chords, followed by Jill’s bare soulful voice, slowly building up until those go-go drums are released. I’ve been captivated since that night in Tower Records!Īllow me to introduce, “It’s Love,” one of my favorite tracks off the album, laced with a funky, go-go, gospel induced energy, this track exudes a magnetic energy.

Her ability to spontaneously twist melodies leaves you mesmerized and wanting more. This soulful poet’s voice is a heavenly wonder her music is passionately spiritual calling souls to vibrate on her energy and passion. Jilly from Philly, hails from the city of brotherly love. Needless the say, we found our musical gem that day! That’s a moment I realized how powerful music can be and how it can connect souls! I remember looking around and seeing my dad in another section just vibing to the same song, then I realized at least three other people were enjoying this melodic soul bolstering through the speakers.

The music was new and familiar at the same time. I believe about 15 minutes had passed and I hadn’t stopped grooving from the time I walked through the doors. My father and I were in Tower Records, on our search for musical gems.

Have you ever found yourself connecting to a song and begun noticing other souls around you connecting to the song? You realize in that moment, everyone around you is vibrating off that same energy? Amazing, right?įor me, that happened back in 2000 when I first heard Jill Scott’s debut album, Who is Jill Scott? Words and Sounds Vol.1.
