Scott, 51, performed on July 1 at the Essence Festival, which celebrates the anniversary of the magazine, which is"100% black-owned," according to its website. Since the festival fell on the Fourth of July weekend, Scott opted to share her own anthem that she said she had written at 19 years old.Everyone please rise for the only National Anthem we will be recognizing from this day forward.
"To call this a 'National Anthem' and ask people to 'rise' for it is really disgraceful," YouTuber Matt Antar wrote."National anthems uplift — country they don’t put them down. Anyone rising or showing respect for this perversion of our national anthem is free to leave if it’s so horrible here." If the United States is so oppressive to the black community then how are you wealthy and free to proclaim the racist garbage that you spout?Others showed their support for the singer, who has had a long career in rhythm and blues.
Thank you, Jill the national anthem was amazing. You understood the assignment. I am here for it always. I have always loved you as an artist. You have always stood for what is right, and I truly respect and admire you for it. pic.twitter.com/kpWm0hhbCI"1st -Thank you sincerely for your respect and appreciation," Scott tweeted in response."I’m on path. 2ndly, with love, I am me in entirely; beautifully human, if some will OR won’t. I see so I write. I feel so I write.
