The “Rolling Hills” is a semi-deep cut for Scott, and there was some speculation amongst my watch group as to whether Erykah had ever heard the song. Erykah went into a bit of Five Percent Nation background, and Jill talked about how she received some backlash for writing a song about fighting, but “at the time, I felt like ass should be whooped.” “Getting in the Way”ĭebut single against debut single. Then she played the live version from that performance. Jill Scott “You Got Me” (live version)Įven though Erykah kicked the night off with the version of the song we all know best, Jill shared the story of the night she had to sing the chorus she wrote for Badu with The Roots for the first time - live, unprepared and still unknown - because Erykah was late to the venue. Erykah Badu “You Got Me” (album edit) vs. Here's how Billboard scored the friendly showdown between the two beloved singer-songwriters. After 24 hours in which music suffered the losses of music and entertainment mogul Andre Harrell and Rock & Roll architect and originator Little Richard, fans, musicians, rappers, and entertainers were eagerly gathered for the soothing, incense-scented warmth of Erykah and Jill. The night was a love fest two friends and peers in music who genuinely admire and appreciate each other’s work trading stories (the ladies were much better about storytelling than previous participants have been) and shouting out collaborators and artists who inspired them. She also often played the entire track, which technically goes against Verzuz rules, but no one complained. Jill was playing from her iPhone, and much more casual in her choices. Erykah, up first in each round, seemed to have a strategy and consideration for what she was playing in what order. The “battle” ended up flowing more like two friends trading songs they love.
Scott replied that she was going to play her version right after. Once they were ready to go, Badu quickly addressed a question that had been weighing on fans’ minds: she was playing The Roots “You Got Me,” on which she’s the featured artist but her part was written by Scott, off the top. There was a slight issue with a time delay and echo, but the ladies casually chatted about adventures in homeschooling and a newfound appreciation for teachers, while Badu’s team sorted it out. While Jill herself was not on screen, selections from poet Nikki Giovanni served as prelude while around 600K people waited a nod to Scott’s spoken word origins.Īt approximately 7:20 p.m., Erykah Badu showed up. immediately knew this was not a normal Verzuz match.
