On her latest LP “Baby, I’m Hollywood” (2021), Judith Hill unveils an ambitious, kaleidoscopic document detailing her journey of self-discovery. It's a vibrant, defiant personal statement, a thorough excursion into the annals of Black music: past, present and future. Rich in throwback soul, stunning piano balladry, and swaggering psychedelic funk, the self-produced “Baby, I’m Hollywood” finds Hill liberated, focused and reborn. Bolstered by a spirited live band and her new attitude, she ruminates on pleasure, pain, celebration, and consequences, all of which inform this collection of finely-crafted stories-in-song.
Hailing from Los Angeles, CA, Judith Hill comes from a Japanese/African-American bi-racial musical family of mother Michiko and father Robert (aka Pee Wee). During the last decades, she has embarked on a meteoric ascent to soul singer, songwriter, and badass bandleader. Judith Hill have collaborated with iconic artists across multiple platforms, genres and mediums. Hill was selected to duet with the late Michael Jackson on "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" during his This Is It concerts in London. After singing lead on a number at Jackson’s memorial service, she was put on the worldwide map in an instant. Judith’s rise to fame is explored in 20 Feet from Stardom, the documentary narrated by Morgan Freeman, where her performances helped win a Grammy for Best Music Film.
Hill was wildly-popular on the fourth season of hit TV show The Voice, she’s worked with filmmaker Spike Lee, and sang on the official soundtrack to major motion pictures Dr. Seuss' The Lorax and Happy Feet Two. Hill contributed to jazz luminary George Benson's tribute to Nat King Cole. Among other high-profile engagements, Judith was drafted as direct support on arena tours for both John Legend and Josh Groban. The latter invited Hill onstage each night to perform duets, before the pair released the single “Remember When it Rained”. Her debyt album “Back in Time” was recorded together with Prince. Hill received much critical acclaim in the aftermath of the record’s 2015 release; a couple of years later she followed up with a self-produced sophomore LP, “Golden Child”.

Häikäisevän valovoimainen R&B-laulaja, laulunkirjoittaja ja kitaristi Judith Hill on Los Angelesissa asuva artisti ja japanilais-afro-amerikkalaisen muusikkoperheen kasvatti, joka on tuli tunnetuksi useiden ikonisten artistien kuten Michael Jacksonin, John Legendin ja Josh Grobanin taustalaulajana. Hän osallistui suuren suosion saattelemana The Voice -televisio-ohjelmaan ja oli myös mukana Oscar-palkitussa maailman parhaimpien artistien taustalaulajia käsittelevässä ”20 Feet From Stardom” -dokumenttielokuvassa. Ylistäviä arvosteluja osakseen saaneen debyyttialbuminsa ”Back in Time” (2015) Hill teki yhteistyössä Princen kanssa.
Judith Hillin viimeisin levy on itse tuotettu ”Baby, I’m Hollywood” (2021), joka on kunnianhimoinen dokumentti Hillin matkasta itsensä löytämiseen. Albumin rikkaat 60-luvun soulin soundit, vahvat blues-vaikutteet ja huikea psykedeelinen funk ammentavat mustan musiikin aikakirjoista; menneisyydestä, nykyisyydestä ja tulevasta.
