A Comprehensive Look At Female Pop Singers XII

Jill Scott


     The depth of her voice is remniscent of the traditional African-American gospel choirs. Where if she were to be a part of-she would most definitely lead. Her voice is like a halogen headlight-blinding anyone who looks into it, yet clearing the path in the darkness of the night. A moonless night. I do not usually assume the role of a follower, but I would follow this one because her brilliance exposes any threat that might manifest itself in the form of a dangerous turn. She began by doing spoken word at live poetry readings that quickly led to her musical career. She commands the microphone. When she performs there is no distortion-she is as clear as a bell. Her vocal strength rises clear above the people-even her band.
