Titled To Whom This May Concern, the project will be released on February 13 via The Orchard. Following the massive success of her 20th-anniversary tour, the album marks a triumphant return for the multi-hyphenate artist, actress, and poet.<\/p>\n<p>The album serves as a masterclass in collaboration, featuring guest appearances by Ab-Soul, J.I.D., Tierra Whack, and Too $hort. The sonic landscape is crafted by a lineup of elite producers, including DJ Premier, Adam Blackstone, and Om\u2019Mas Keith. Fans can get a first taste of the project with the lead single, \u201cBeautiful People,\u201d which is available now on all streaming platforms.<\/p>\n<p>The album\u2019s visual identity features artwork by acclaimed artist Marcellus, mirroring the \u201csonic poetry\u201d Scott has curated for this release. This body of work follows a career defined by chart-topping success, including two #1 Billboard 200 debuts (The Light of the Sun and Woman), and a legacy that has fundamentally shifted the landscape of modern soul.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/youknowigotsoul.com\/jill-scott-announces-first-album-in-10-years-to-whom-this-may-concern-shares-1st-single-beautiful-people\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three-time GRAMMY\u00ae winner Jill Scott has officially announced her first full-length studio album in nearly a decade.
