That Jill Scott vs Erykah Badu was not a battle because those Queens came through and showed the younger generation how to love on each other through their music and that was Epic. #nocompetition #thequeensrule
I absolutely agree with you. Just listening to both Queens music took me back over the last 20 years of my early adulthood. The music brought me through some real tough times.
I hope the record label learnt that they all own this together with love (Roots, Badu and Jill) - so glad a rendition so amazing unfolded to prove it. Such a poignant performance, chokes me up thinking about it from so many different angles. Good Game to all involved. - *edit* this was more directed at when Jill, Badu & Roots performed this live together at Chappelle block party
I love both versions. I did think this was a bit different from majority of Erykah Badu and Roots writing style because both have different themes in most of their songs. When I found out Jill Wrote this I was like no wonder why this song's lyrics seemed out of element for both because it has Jill's style all over it.
Saw this years ago...it was pure magick then and it will be every time you see/ hear / feel how they did ThIS! Ms.Jill Scott eats the mic.. EVERY performance
I love jill Scott and erykah badu for there different styles, but I feel that Jill Scott is a better singer for this song when it's live and erykah is a better singer for it when Its on a music video,
I am proud of humanity because of this, give it to me RAW, no sex. thank you so much it really strikes a cord in my soul and we will see what my plants says.
Jill did the song first, but they wanted to commercialize the song so they added Erykah Badu to the hook. I absolutely love the 1st version of the song ❤️❤️❤️
This is what music means to me! The essence and the feeling of life! I love my philly fam jill & the roots! They are simply amazing!! I love some soul music! Jill just does her thing! Love them. Real music!
Erykah was on fire at this point and the 'deciders' made a practical choice for sales and popularity. I love me some Badu, but Jill equally killed it. There is room for all at the rendezvous of victory!
I’m NOT here bcuz of the Vz challenge😍 I’m here bcuz it touched my soul when I heard it 20 years ago. Just never knew they had a video for it. Philly has ALWAYS been on 🔥.
Here after I found out, scoth torch original idea for this song was supposed to be young Jills song, but the Roots wanted it and had a problem with an unknown singer, so they asked Eryka Badu even thou she felt Jill did her thing.
Who is watching in 2024?
Me
Seen!!! Jill a fox. B-Thought a god.
ME
Me i still got love for them ,the roots the jazz festival at montreal 2022

When Jill was a teenager she's kicked out of a musicgroup for being weird.She went with the flow, she can surf on the waves of life. Love her !
I believe it!!! She is originally awesome!!!!! Conform for what????
Love her weirdness
Looks like Jill got the last laugh 😆. Wonder where the group is now ?????
They were jealous of her talent.She was too big for a group.Honestyl Mj and Beyonce didnt ever need a group but hey.
@@micpowers1136 tbought it was cus the record label wanted someone more recognisable
Jill Scott has the most beautiful voice . It lets you know she is the real deal.
Jill is very underrated.period.

Both versions are divine, thanks for the good music!!!!

I love jill Scott and erykah badu for there different styles, but I feel that Jill Scott is a better singer for this song when it's live and erykah is a better singer for it when Its on a music video,
Jasmine brown
100% agreed
For Jill Scott is more of a writer and a poet than a writer. Erykah’s is the better singer
Jill scott wrote the hook
@@Picture111 you got it backwards..
I am proud of humanity because of this, give it to me RAW, no sex.
thank you so much it really strikes a cord in my soul and we will see what my plants says.
Jill did the song first, but they wanted to commercialize the song so they added Erykah Badu to the hook. I absolutely love the 1st version of the song ❤️❤️❤️
I love Jill Scott so much, Such a radiant spirit!
Jill touches my Soul!!!
This is on her album when she spelled her name. I was wondering where that came from! Wow!
Not the same exact performance, hers was taken from The Roots Come Alive cd...then she took that part and put it on her own cd...
So glad that this version still exists!
The Legendary Roots Crew- with Jilly from Philly
Man proud white dude here... But all love
For this. Pure fuvkin art!
Ah memories. I had the pleasure of seeing the Roots in concert when I was in college.
This is what music means to me! The essence and the feeling of life! I love my philly fam jill & the roots! They are simply amazing!! I love some soul music! Jill just does her thing! Love them. Real music!
Yes!!!!!!
Jill Scott IS the best.

With the game and fortune she still lit cuz her persona remained humble
00:35, I knew Jill was gonna ripp it!!!! I freaking love this woman!!!! Oh yeah, the Roots are cool too.... Lol
Erykah was on fire at this point and the 'deciders' made a practical choice for sales and popularity. I love me some Badu, but Jill equally killed it. There is room for all at the rendezvous of victory!
Simply beautiful. I love The Roots and then they added Jill Scott. I love it.
This music still do something to me
Wonderful performance of Jill. Thank you!
