Soulsmith Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Saturday, en route to see the Wigan play this lilting gem of a modern soul record cropped up on the CD. Jill Scott - Family Reunion All was going well until the singer uttered the following line, "Lisa made her famous salad, somehow it turns out green" Well that had us in stitches. Other comic moments followed including the somewhat unexpected line, "Oh shit, Meggy and Steve are fighting again" There are other comic lines in the song. Its a testament to Jill Scott that she made a soul record out of the lyrics she was given. I hope you find this record as enjoyable as me. Anybody got anything similar? Soundfiles appreciated. Col.

Col. link A great track taken off her 'Beautifully Human' album from last year. She actually covered it.I'm racking my brains as to who did the original version. Can anyone help? A really funny 12" is 'Rapmaster Ronnie' by Eathel Bean and Doonesbury Break Crew, a piss take of Ronnie Regans election campaign from the 80's.It's well funny.I'll try and post a soundbite tomorrow. Cheers Pete Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
