I think "The Light" is a good call.
Why? Think about the stream of soul singers who have had varying degrees of success in the last year or so: Macy Gray...Kelis...Angie Stone...you could even throw L-Boog in there if you wanted to
The point is that there is a desire to find the "next" female singer to play on MTV/BET/Commercial Radio and I think Jill Scott has good a chance to be the next one to get rotation. With her on the hook, "The Light" makes sense as the make-or-break joint.
I would follow that up w/ "Funky For You" in mid-to-late June because it is simply infectious and would undoubetly boost record sales.
As for first week sales, I agree with the post that stresses patience.
This album will sell...Eventually.
It has to, otherwise, God does not exist.
