Jill Scott
This weekend I had the fine pleasure of seeing Ms. Jill Scott in concert and I have to say I was completely amazed. What grabs you about Jill is not just her obvious talent but her effervescent presence. It’s one of those intangible energies that pictures and words really can’t capture. However, for those who missed this affair, here are some moments from that show. (more…)
DJ Jazzy Jeff is continuing to do Philly proud with Back For More, a collaboration featuring Jeff as the producer and vocalist Ayah, and it is hip hop/soul that equals good summertime listening. It’s not overproduced—meaning there is not a lot of effects and gimmicks going on with the tracks or vocals. It’s just 13 tracks of “nice and smoothness”. “Hold On”, “One Life” and “Maybe We Can Just” stand out. Press play and ride out.

The reason is simple: This song is history. There is absolutely no debating that point. 21 years and 11 months ago today DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince’s “Parents Just Don’t Understand” won the first Rap Grammy Award. (more…)
