This week at VIN, we are diving into the album that introduced the world to Jill Scott’s poetic, soulful, and deeply personal artistry -Who Is Jill Scott? Words and Sounds Vol. 1.

Released in 2000, this album redefined modern R&B and neo soul by blending spoken word, jazz, and raw storytelling into an experience that felt intimate yet universal. From the tender reflections of A Long Walk to the powerful affirmations of One is the Magic Number, Jill Scott crafted an album that felt like a love letter to Black womanhood, self discovery, and emotional honesty.

What to Expect:

• A deep dive into Jilly from Philly's lyrical storytelling, vocal style, and the themes of love, self worth, and empowerment woven throughout the album

• A discussion on the influence of neo soul and the era that gave us Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, and D’Angelo

• Vinyl records for sale to take the music home

• Drink specials inspired by the album’s warm and intimate energy
