The neo-soul singer and actor answers your questions on being taken to a go-go club as a child, training as an English teacher and getting mistaken for footballer Jill ScottIn a recent interview you gave an invaluable life lesson which involved a go-go bar and your mother’s love. What are your tips for living life between adversities? Integrity411My mother’s ex-husband was a questionable man and after he picked me up from elementary school he used to take me to a go-go bar where ladies were dancing in their panties. I was a child, so I thought: how nice for them, I hate getting dressed too! They dance all day and then some nice people put money in their panties. The ladies would give me milk or Coca-Cola and give me a dollar, so I wanted to be a go-go dancer when I grew up. At that age I didn’t know there was anything wrong with me going there and I learned not to judge people so quickly. However, when my mother discovered why I was coming home late she kicked into fifth gear. She t...

7 d. ago Poem of the week: Now, Mother, What’s the Matter? by Richard W Halperin

An exploration of what constitutes the literary arts – plus all the ‘troubled hearts’ and demons that accompany it – through the lens of Shakespeare’s HamletNow, Mother, What’s the Matter?Only the monsters do not have troubled hearts. Life is for troubled hearts. Art is for troubled hearts. For my whole life, Hamlet has been a bridge between. Hamlet’s ‘Now, mother, what’s the matter?’ is life on earth. Something is always the matter, and not just for mothers. (As I write this, the Angelus rings.) Every character in Hamlet is troubled, there are no monsters in it. I render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s — everything is troubled there and, if I am lucky, Caesar is troubled. I render unto God the things that are God’s and feel — want to feel? Do feel — that God is troubled. I also render unto art. But I have no idea what art is. What Edward Thomas’s ‘Adlestrop’ is. What the luminous chaos of The Portrait of a Lady is. What The Pilgrim’s Progress is. My feet knew the way befor...
