Jill Scott Returns With New Album Announcement & Single “Beautiful People”

Jill Scott is back! That’s it, that’s the article.

After a decade since her last album, the queen of Neo-Soul is brandishing herself a new album, with a sonically nostalgic track to follow. "Beautiful People," is the first original track from the Philly singer in over ten years and still finds the same nurturing communal vibes over cool, laid-back drums you can expect from a Jill Scott track.

"Beautiful People" is the first cut off her brand new album, To Whom This May Concern, arriving to platforms this year on February 13th.

Scott’s influence can be seen in a myriad of genres from the past 20 years, and the features list for the upcoming project aims to tie those worlds together. Piecing together collaborations from colleagues past like Om’Mas Keith & DJ Premier with current artists like Ab-Soul, J.I.D., & Tierra Whack, Scott is cultivating a new realm of opportunity for her voice to magically fill.

The track itself? Pure silk. It’s that signature Scott warmth we’ve been missing.
