Jill Scott knows how to rock the mic.
The soul songstress was performing at a recent concert where she appeared to be simulating oral sex on stage. In the video, which quickly went viral, Scott opens her mouth wide to sing, while also rubbing the mic in a suggestive manner as though she is giving fellatio. Fans in attendance cheered her on during the provocative performance.
The raunchy video became a trending topic on Twitter and social media erupted with responses. Some joked about wanting to attend a “meet and greet” with Scott, while longtime fans pointed out that Scott’s raunchiness is nothing new.
“Must be the youngins that are getting excited about Jilly from Philly sucking a air dick on stage,” tweeted one fan. “The older Jill Scott fans who have actually been to her old show …. know she has been doing this for a long time .. This is not new kiddies.”
Her friend and collaborator Questlove also chimed in. “Lol at y’all Jill Scott newbies,” said The Roots drummer. “Y’all thought she was incense and sandals huh?”
Jilly from Philly herself took to Twitter to address the explicit video and invite new fans to come see her live. “Hi. I sing/act out all kinds of stories. You should cum to my shows,” she tweeted. “After a Jill Scott show, most people get splendidly laid by whoever they came with😁👍🏽🎶🤪🎉 #iftheydontFitup #stopfrontinusuckdicktoo They also usually go on 2happier, more productive, focused, wealthy lives.”
