    Scott’s mighty voice is a commanding presence throughout, whether flying around the melodies of songs such as Prepared, or multi-tracked on the dreamy Fool’s Gold.

    Whatever Scott has gone through on an emotional level, Woman finds her at a life stage where she seemingly maintains a balance between optimism and pragmatism, a worldly perspective that informs one of her strongest full-length efforts in a minute.

    She’s never more at home than when BJ the Chicago Kid accepts an offer of her “chocolate covered honey” on the closing “Beautiful Love.”

    Intimate and slow-moving, Woman is good but underwhelming.

    More than any other Jill Scott album--each one is either nearly or well over an hour in length--its impact would likely deepen with some trimming and resequencing. Nonetheless, there's enough high-quality content to sustain Scott's status as one of the most unique and powerful voices in R&B.

    Can’t Wait and Say Thank You are both dazzling, but too many tracks are unworthy of a woman who once appeared to represent R&B’s future.
