Jill Scott is a three-time Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter, New York Times best-selling poet, critically acclaimed actor, and multimedia entrepreneur.<\/p>\n

She released her much-anticipated debut record, \u201cWho is Jill Scott? Words & Sounds, Vol. 1,\u201d in July 2000<\/strong>, which became a double platinum album that earned Scott several Grammy nominations, including Best New Artist.<\/p>\n

“Who is Jill Scott? Words & Sounds, Vol. 1,\u201d plays Nationwide, NYC, Philly, LA and more!<\/h3>\n

What started as the 20th-anniversary tour of Jill Scott\u2019s chart-topping, genre-defining album,\u00a0Who Is Scott?: Words and Sounds Vol I<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0in 2020 ended prematurely due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

But good news prevails: in 2023, the tour will resume<\/h3>\n

But good news prevails: in 2023, the tour will resume, electrifying auditoriums, theaters, and music halls throughout the nation in celebration of a moment and movement that continues to enthrall music lovers of all ages and backgrounds.<\/p>\n

Scott will play the iconic album front to back, with hits from her iconic debut album, such as \u201cGettin\u2019 in the Way,\u201d \u201cA Long Walk\u201d and other musical stories.\u00a0The tour, produced by Live Nation Urban, will play in over 20 markets across the country, with special multi-show residencies in Washington, D.C. at the MGM National Harbor on Mother\u2019s Day weekend and Scott\u2019s hometown of Philadelphia at The MET Philadelphia, marking the first time the North Philadelphia native will play at the storied North Philadelphia venue.<\/p>\n

The Philadelphia stop also includes a fundraiser at the Arden Theatre in support of her non-profit, the\u00a0Blues Babe Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy band and I were so excited three years ago, but that damn COVID shut us down,\u201d said Scott.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow, we outside! Come see me. Come feel again. Relive your favorite moments.<\/p>\n

Ya\u2019ll ready to settle down and get with this?!? It\u2019s a lot of love here.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Though Scott had to pause performances during the pandemic, she celebrated the milestone virtually and continued building her brand as a multimedia entrepreneur, launching\u00a0\u201c<\/a>Jill Scott Presents: J.ill the Podcast\u201d<\/a>\u00a0in November 2020 alongside co-hosts\u00a0Laiya St.Clair<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Aja Graydon-Dantzler<\/a>.

Scott also participated in the first woman vs. woman Verzuz battle in May 2020, starred in Lifetime\u2019s\u00a0Highway to Heaven\u00a0<\/em>and BET+\u2019s\u00a0The First Wives Club<\/em>, and in September 2021, she became the face of Nationwide,\u00a0bringing a fresh take on a familiar campaign and putting her soulful spin on the iconic jingle.<\/p>\n

Scott released her much-anticipated debut record,\u00a0Who is Jill Scott? Words & Sounds, Vol. 1\u00a0<\/em>in July 2000, which became a double platinum album that earned Scott several Grammy nominations, including Best New Artist (2001), Best R&B Album (2001), and Best Female R&B Vocal Performance for three years in a row (2001-2003).
