Love Rain (Jill Scott song)

"Love Rain" is a 2000 song by Jill Scott. Co-written with Vidal Davis, the soul song describes a young couple's summer romance, including sexually graphic lyrics and weather metaphors. Scott employs spoken word as well as breathy and syncopated vocals, while a remix includes a verse by American rapper Mos Def.

The song was released as the lead single from Scott's debut album, Who Is Jill Scott?: Words and Sounds Vol. 1, in May 2000. Upon its release, the single was well received by critics, who praised Scott's vocals and songwriting, and compared her performance to those of Erykah Badu, Macy Gray, and Prince. Although the song's promotion was limited, and it received no music video, it was credited with building buzz for Scott and for her next single, the more successful "Gettin' In the Way". Scott included a re-imagined version of the song in the set of her 2001 live album, Experience: Jill Scott 826+.
