+Spotlyte Signature Events Me too... when I first heard it I yelled NO SHE DIDN'T. LOL My least favorite movie ever quoted by my favorite musician ever lol I love her
I didn't realize how much I needed that show from Jill and Erykah, both the music and the gems they were dropping. With everything going on in the world, it really hit me in my soul. This song in particular took me out.
Never heard this song untill I just heard it on jill Scott and erykah badus battle on ig. Idk if I would call it a battle because both of them are awesome. Love this song.
'Jahraymecofasola' is one of my favorites because of how it came about and how simply beautiful it is," she said.

Baruka YAH beautifully put! I couldn’t agree more about Erykah Badu! I’m learning to truly love Jill Scott. I always respected her due to sista code and because her popular songs are a must on the playlist but I didn’t listen to other songs besides the popular ones.
I love jill. literally hearing this song and not even knowing what it meant or even really listening to the words. I felt the spirit move me and u began to cry. but I cried years if love in it's purest firm. after learning the meaning I realized just why I felt this way when hearing this song. spirit transends and is translated so seamlessly from one child if the most high Yah/jah to other children of the same.
Jahraymecofasola means that God is king to me with the fourth note of the diatonic scale to such an extent that I exalt. It’s better when she does it live 🥰😍😍 Even better knowing that the entire word and song is a freestyle makes it even better‼️
Pure genius! Her mind, with its third eye wide open has ushered me through many spiritual journeys. Her voice has soothed my restless soul on numerous nights when no calm was to be found in my sea of life. Her poetic poise has been the blueprint on which I have built so many of my own penned masterpieces. She is just simply....a genius. Beauty personified!
"Picture yourself in a boat on a river With tangerine trees and marmalade skies Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly A girl with kaleidoscope eyes"
First heard on the 5/9/2020. I listen to this every morning it prepares my spirit for whatever come what may, that I will be victorious , grateful in grace. with faith knowing the GOD and the UNIVERSE HAS ME. PS I heard some POOTIE TANG in there Thank you Jill Scott
This song reminds me of Love in another dimension, where no one makes mistakes and real love is felt and lived everyday between two people who live to love each other. 💕 💕 💕

I didn't realize how much I needed that show from Jill and Erykah, both the music and the gems they were dropping.
With everything going on in the world, it really hit me in my soul. This song in particular took me out.
Yes, this song hit me so hard! My sister is a die hard Jill fan, I had to call and ask her why didn’t she tell me about this one 😂😂😂😂
That was the highlight of 2020
God was moving with and through her....the purest form of inspiration.

Never heard this song untill I just heard it on jill Scott and erykah badus battle on ig. Idk if I would call it a battle because both of them are awesome. Love this song.
Now that I know the meaning of Jahraymecofasola it makes the song more powerful. God gave her a true gift to really touch any soul.
The most beautiful song I've heard in a very long time. So simple.
very true. so very true.
YES!!
Check out Trelyrics cover of this song!
Came searching for this song immediately after the Jill Scott vs Eryka Badu battle. Love this song!

That is awesome!!!! I am moved by the description of her process. Thank you for sharing.
Erykah and Jill convinced me to stop listening to mainstream music a long, long time ago.
+Nichole Michaels YES INDEED!
Those sisters are too deep for mainstream...
Baruka YAH beautifully put! I couldn’t agree more about Erykah Badu! I’m learning to truly love Jill Scott. I always respected her due to sista code and because her popular songs are a must on the playlist but I didn’t listen to other songs besides the popular ones.
And now they are singing right now together in a #Versuz
Facts!!! I haven't bought new music since like 2003 unless it was theirs. Just stopped listening to the radio!
Well if I had any anxieties, this song has brought me peace. Beautiful.
Me too!
Ashé! This song sounds like prayer
Indeed…🌷
The Jill Scott verzuz Erykah Badu brought me here. I had to hear this song again. I instantly fell in love with this song.
SAME!!
Same here this song perfectly describes how I feel about God 💗

Kiosha Reynolds it’s so true. When I first heard it,my first reaction was to cry. Tears started to fall and heart felt so heavy
I just felt all of these emotions after hearing it for the 1st time on her Queen showcase with Madame Badu!!
I'm here after the live she had with Erykah Badu! I was so happy to hear it, I hadn't heard it since I was a kid. What a perfect song ❤
Quarantine brought me back here. A beautiful song. A beautiful voice.
How is it that I had never heard of this song until the Jill and Eryka vibe session tonight?
