Beautifully Human: Words and Sounds Vol. 2 by Jill Scott
Beautifully Human: Words and Sounds Vol. 2 is an album by Jill Scott, released in 2004. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 2 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Golden”, on 2 lists with a best position of #499.
Beautifully Human: Words and Sounds Vol. 2, Jill Scott's second studio album, arrived on August 31, 2004, and gave her the first number-one album of her career: it opened atop Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop albums chart, and at number three on the Billboard 200, with 193,000 copies sold in its first week. Raphael Saadiq is among the names in the production credits, and the follow-up to her platinum debut keeps the Words and Sounds approach: warm, grown-up R&B carried by a voice that can purr, swing and soar in the same breath. It went gold.
"Cross My Mind" won Scott her first Grammy, for Best Urban/Alternative Performance, in 2005. But "Golden" is the one that refuses to fade, turning up in the films Beauty Shop and Obsessed, on Grand Theft Auto IV's fictional soul station The Vibe 98.8, and in 2024 over the closing credits of Ellen DeGeneres's Netflix special.
