NEWS: Jill Scott To Release New Album 'The Light Of The Sun' This Year
She's been gone for a minute but the Grammy award winner singer and actress is back with two new film releases, a Marvel cartoon series and a brand new album due out this spring/summer, as well as a new bra for her Ashley Stewart intimate apparel line she's got in the States.
The press release reads:
Following up to 2007's Grammy nominated Gold certified album The Real Thing, Jill is currently in the studio recording her 5th album titled The Light Of The Sun. The album embarks Jill on a flurry of emotional poetry as both her career and personal life have skyrocketed with success in Hollywood and birth of first child. The album is expected to be a Spring/Summer 2010 release, just in time for Scott's return to the stage.
It's about time she came back!
Jill's film projects for this year are the Lifetime film 'Sins Of A Mother' where Jill plays an abusive, alcoholic mother who turns her life around when her daughter returns home from university. Then Tyler Perry's 'Why Did I Get Married Too?' (I doubt these will be released in the UK)
Marvel Animation and BET Networks have teamed up to create the epic animated mini-series Black Panther out mid 2010. Jill voices X-men Heroine Storm alongside Golden Globe nominated actor Djimon Hounsou (Blood Diamond), Kerry Washington (Last King of Scotland) & Golden Globe winning actress Alfre Woodard (American Violet).
This year is definitely set to be quite a busy year for Jill. She'll also be touring with Mary J Blige, Cheryl Crow, Eryka Badu, Sarah McLachlan and Colbie Caillat on the 2010 Lilith Fair Tour; a celebration of diverse female voices across all genres, in the US.
