This is the first single. She's shooting a video soon. Anyone have a link? It's already getting airplay.

HIDDEN BEACH RECORDINGS JILL SCOTT RETURNS WITH HER LATEST CD,
BEAUTIFULLY HUMAN: WORDS AND SOUNDS, Vol. 2
The Platinum Plus-Selling Soul Singer Unveils Her New Body of Work
Fans have been waiting for it. The music industry has been anticipating
it. And now three time Grammy-nominated vocal sensation Jill Scott is
set to deliver yet another collection of luminous and poignant songs as
her new CD, Beautifully Human, Words And Sounds Vol. 2, is unveiled
August 31 on Hidden Beach Recordings.
Scott, who after nonstop promotion of her 2001 multi-platinum-selling
debut CD, Who Is Jill Scott? Words And Sounds, Vol. 1, took time off to
exhale. She married her soulmate and enjoyed life as a newlywed. Scott,
a former Broadway actress (Rent), also quenched her thespian thirst by
doing some acting and, of course, she carved out some downtime to write
and create music. After embarking on other creative outlets, the
multi-talented performer is ready and excited about expressing herself
again through song. While Scott got back into the mindset to craft
enchanting music and inspiring lyrics, she appreciated all the positive
vibes and patience her fans gave to her.
This alluring wordsmith has again created songs that are nurtured in the
heart and sung with love. In fact, the first single, “Golden,” talks
about freedom and empowering oneself to live to the fullest, to look at
life as if it is golden. Scott will shoot the music video for “Golden”
in the coming weeks.
For this CD, Scott turned to some of the same producers from Who Is Jill
Scott?--James Poser, Andre Harris and Vidal Davis, Ivan and Carvin
(“Mama’s Boys”). She also sought a fresh approach by going into the
studio with producers she had long wanted to collaborate with such as
Ant Bell, P-nut, Pete Kuzma, and Raphael Saadiq.
Taking her music back to its grassroots, Scott will debut her new work
at intimate listening sessions across the nation. And though Beautifully
Human has yet to be released, Scott is already receiving media coverage.
She will be featured on the cover of the August issue of Essence
magazine. During her three-year hiatus, Scott remained in the public
eye. She completed a movie for Showtime titled Cavedwellers with Kyra
Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon, and appeared in an episodic arc (4 episodes)
of the UPN’s series “Girlfriends.” She also secured a publishing deal
with St. Martins Press.
But Scott’s focus now is pure music. Her vision is Beautifully Human.

Yeah she repeats that line way too much but Jill Scott always has a little quirkiness to all her songs.

I'm kind of disappointed. This is her weakest single yet IMO. Not that it's bad, but I was expecting better, especially for the lead-off single.
