Jill Scott In Atlanta, On Possibly Becoming An Atlantan…(And Many Other Things)

It’s an especially good day in the life of Jill Scott, she says when she rings the Atlanta Music Scene.

“I’m laying in the bed in the middle of the afternoon, and ‘Galaxy Quest’ is about to come on,” she coos. “Oooh it’s a perfect day. I’m feeling great.”

And talkative too — so hours before her appearance with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra tonight at Chastain Park Amphitheatre, we got the three-time Grammy Award winner (above, during her surprise appearance at the Roots/Erykah Badu show at the Fox Theatre) to catch us up on her recent performances overseas, her return to Africa and her Atlanta-based fiance and how likely it is that she may become an Atlantan. (Read the interview here.)

Planning to go to the show tonight? Think her latest CD, “The Real Thing,” got its due? And what did you think of her tribute to Al Green? (For a reminder, watch HERE )

My husband and I saw Jill at the NJ performaing Arts Center and she blew us away. We came down from the Poconos in PA made an entire night of it and turned my husband into a huge fan as well. Now I get to go to all live shows in the area thanks Jill you are simply the best. You ARE the real thing!!!!

I attended the performance last night at Chastin to see, Ms.Jill Scott, what a performer! She definitely underrated as an artist. I was worth the very, very long traffic lines.
