Singer & Actress Jill Scott has released the lead single, Fools Gold, from her upcoming album. Co-written and produced by Andre Harris, formerly of the production duo Dre & Vidal, Fools Gold follows behind the buzz single, You Don't Know, which Scott released earlier this year. A title has not been announced for the album, which will stand as the follow-up to Scott's 2011 release, The Light of the Sun. 

This release falls right in line with the announcement of Jill's tour, which will take her across the country for 25 intimate dates. See below for a listing of tour dates.
