"Woman" is soul songstress/poet Jill Scott's fifth album, and the follow-up to her #1 album "The Light Of The Sun". It's more of what we've come to expect from Scott, with horns and strings amped up for a lush retro feel complementing the hip hop aesthetic.

We get some of her spoken word on opening cut "Wild Cookie", the spartan "Lighthouse", "Willing (Interlude)", and the breezy guitar-flecked "Say Thank You" with the opening line "I used to be stuck... How about you?" And a squealing guitar coda - a Scott classic already and my favourite.

Lead-single is the enchanting and dreamy jazzy soul "Fool's Gold" which takes one back to the seventies. "I was living the dream, believing things that just ain't true, Oh I can't believe I ever believed in you" she croons. The gently plodding "Prepared" recalls Elton John's "Bernie And The Jets". The clap-driven "Run Run Run" is bouncy and upbeat with a gospel fervor, as is "Coming To You". "Can't Wait" is a smouldering midtempo groove. For more like this, there's the spectacular "You Don't Know" (with Scott flitting from tender to fiery against gospel-style harmonies), "Cruisin'", the hymnal "Back Together", and "Beautiful Love", a twinkly retro soul song featuring BJ The Chicago Kid perfectly harmonising with Scott and recalling Floetry, while "Closure" is a bluesy groove with darting funky horns, a spoken/sung delivery, and a comical coda.

Lovely.

This album is very different from her last record. There isn't alot of hip hop influence. This album in a salute to the 60s/70s style of music, i.e. big band loud horns. Some won't be able to appreciate it, but if you are a lover of music in general you should be able to appreciate what she did. You can see her growth and maturity as an artist on this record. It is a very solid album and thankful is different from alot of the stuff that is currently out.

I'm not really feeling it truthfully speaking.. its too bluesy for me. when she dropped that first single "u don't know" I just flat out didn't like it and then "fools Gold" came I thought ok here is the Jill that I'm used to..then "closure" came and I got excited thinking like this album was gonna be a banger a return to old and then I get the album and I'm extremely disappointed. I'm not sure where she's trying to go with the new direction "Aretha Franklin? some old blues singer? where is the hip hop influence from words and sounds or beautifully human? This album has exactly 6 songs that I like i wouldn't just press play all the other ones. 1fools gold (dope), 2 closure (dope), 3 can't wait (dope), 4 cruising (dope), 5 jahraymecofasola (dope) 6, beautiful love ( dope) and the other 10 songs aren't for me.. I'm a Man maybe she titled it woman because it would be something that her women fans would comprehend on a deeper level than I ever could
. to be fair to Jill she's amazing in concert ill never stop supporting her in concert maybe the records will resonate with me better when she
performs them live but right now I can't vibe with it.I love Jill ,always have and always will unfortunately she's going sonically in a direction that i can no longer follow...sidenote I see a lot of reviews but i don't see evidence of anyone supporting with a purchase whats that about...Maybe Amazon should shut down people who give their two cents but go to youtube or pandora etc..to listen

This is my favorite album from Jilly from Philly since Beautifully Human. What makes Jill an ARTIST is her versatility and her refusal to give in to the status quo of what she should be doing or what she should sound like. For that reason, this album is R&B, soul, country, prose, and fun. Kudos to a great artist for thought-provoking, soul-searching, can-I-get-an-Amen kind of music - the kind that makes you heal, prepare, and hopeful for what's to come!
