Jill Scott, Alicia Keys, Sunshine Anderson Score Lady Of Soul Nominations
Jill Scott, Sunshine Anderson and 3LW are the leading ladies of Soul Train, nabbing three nominations each for the Seventh Annual Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards.
But Scott, who made a name for herself with last year's Who Is Jill Scott? Words and Sounds Vol. 1, stands a chance at a four-trophy night - she will also receive the Aretha Franklin Award for Entertainer of the Year.
Trailing behind the Philadelphia songstress, Anderson and 3LW with two nods each are current chart-topper Alicia Keys, Destiny's Child, India.Arie, Dream, Sunday and Changing Faces.
The awards, which recognize women in R&B, hip-hop and gospel, will be handed out August 28 at the Santa Monica (California) Civic Auditorium. The ceremony will air later in syndication. Performers have not been announced.
