Review by Dieske Weiman

The Light of the Sun: A Soulful Journey with Jill Scott Jill Scott’s The Light of the Sun, released in 2011 under Warner Bros. Records, is one of those albums that feels like it was made just for you. Like, she somehow crawled into your brain and figured out exactly what you needed to hear. It’s funky, soulful, and raw—a mixtape of emotions wrapped up in smooth vocals and rich instrumentation. If you’re looking for something real, this album delivers. Let me start with “So Gone (What My Mind Says).” Oh man, this track? This track hits hard. The commentary version gives you a peek into Jill’s mind before she dives into the song, and honestly, it feels like eavesdropping on her inner monologue. She talks about love, loss, and how messy life can get. Then when the beat drops? Whew. You feel every word she sings because they’re dripping with honesty. There’s no sugarcoating here—just straight-up truth bombs. And let’s not even get started on the bassline; it’s so deep it might as well be its own character in the story. Then there’s “Shame.” I mean, come on. That horn section alone could make anyone want to cry or dance—or maybe both at the same time. When Jill belts out those lines about regret and redemption, you can’t help but sit back and think, Yeah, I’ve been there too. The commentary adds another layer—it’s almost like she’s sitting next to you, explaining why she wrote it. It’s personal yet universal, if that makes sense. What sticks with me most about these tracks—and really the whole album—is how unapologetically human it feels. Jill doesn’t try to hide behind anything fancy. No auto-tune, no gimmicks. Just pure soul laid bare. Listening to it feels like having a heart-to-heart conversation with an old friend who knows all your secrets but loves you anyway. And hey, here’s the thing: In a world full of playlists designed to keep us scrolling, The Light of the Sun reminds us to stop and actually feel something. Like, put down your phone, close your eyes, and let the music wash over you. Honestly, by the end of the album, you might find yourself wondering why more artists don’t take this kind of risk anymore. Or maybe you’ll just hit repeat and forget about everything else for a while. Either way, mission accomplished, Jill. Mission freakin’ accomplished.
