Light of the Sun

Jill Scott's 4th album, 'Light of the Sun' is her first to make it on Billboard's number 1. Not too bad for an artist that has faced some challenges in the past few years, a divorce, single motherhood and leaving her longtime record label to start up her own.

An interview taken from the Philledelphia Enquirer:

Question: So The Light of the Sun is your first album to make it to number one on the Billboard album chart. How did that feel?

Answer: I'm excited. . . . I feel it and I know it's happened. But it might be too much for me to really comprehend at the moment. To me, a record is not a few weeks' or days' journey. A record is a year, a year and a half. It's like: "Wow, we're starting at a good place." There's a lot of positive feedback. All those things are just incredible.
