  • Hello to all of my viewers and subscribers. I'm sorry about taking so long to upload this music documentary, but I felt like it was necessary to take time to do it. This music documentary profiles the music career of Ms Lauryn Hill. Lauryn is a singer, rapper, songwriter, actress, and producer. She has had tremendous success in her career as group member of the Fugees and as solo artist. Laruyn's classic album, the Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, has made an astounding impact in music and it has solidified her standing as one of the greatest hip hop artist of all time.

    When you look back at her career you understand lauryn was never crazy... The music industry is clearly a sick place and when you choose peace and want to walk away from it people paint a crazy narrative about you.. I respect people like her, D'Angelo and Dave Chappelle who walked away at the height of their success and understand peace of mind and soul are priceless

      With all due respect, a lot of what Lauryn talks about if you listen to her discussions in her MTV Unplugged appearance are very much symptoms of Bipolar Depression, specifically the subset of Bipolar in which someone experiences long stretches of abrupt depression followed by normal levels of functioning. A woman can have Bipolar Disorder and be a strong, talented, smart, creative, wonderful person. We need to stop acting as if having a mental illness would diminish her creative endeavors and artistic accomplishments. When men have a mental illness but produce creative work, such as Kurt Cobain, we celebrate them even knowing they were unwell. Why can't we acknowledge Lauryn's mental illness and celebrate her? Because Kurt was a white man, and Lauryn's a black woman, she doesn't get to be both flawed and gifted? I would ask you to please reexamine your words and open your heart up to the idea she can be both struggling with something and worthy of praise.

      Edit: and nowadays they wanna say colorist exist in the industry that's why we don't see or have any dark tone female artist out. Not deny it but they most forgot about Lauryn hill. It's no telling what and how far she would've came if she don't decided not to continue. But I think they talking about how things is nowadays in the industry. Because back then is was so many dark skin and brow skin successful artist.

It exists and true colorism in the music business. But you can pull through if the talent is real raw and the music match and people SUPPORT IT. Artist nowadays simply ain't as talent like the people back than. And lack originality BAD.

    What strikes me about her evolution is that even though the stuff she started singing after miseducation wasn't quite accepted by the masses, it would totally be accepted right now. Its crazy how something can come full circle and obviously she was just way ahead of her time. Big up to you Lauryn. You've always inspired me. Even till this day. Keep doing you.

    Her MTV Unplugged album is just as great as her first. The problem is that it wasn’t received but go take a listen Lauryn was/is on another level. And as she said when you asked to be used by God you have to be fully used and that sometimes comes with humility. Her Freedom Time song explains a lot. And as she says let them with ears to hear understand. 30 years from now her last interview in 2000 will be relevant then. Some just don’t get it.

    I’ll never forget watching Sister Act 2:Back in The Habit 28 years ago and getting goosebumps from Lauryn Hill singing Eye on The Sparrow . I knew from that moment on she was going to be one of the most iconic artists that ever lived . And then miseducation comes out 4 years later!!!! U couldn’t go anywhere without hearing a song off that album. Say what u want about this woman but we will NEVER get another artist like her in this lifetime!!! 1 of 1!

    I just hope to one day meet her in my lifetime. I’ve only seen her perform.. but I want to cry in her presence, tell her how her words carried me, protected me... how her voice healed me and how God really used her as a vessel in my life. I probably won’t be able to say all of that beyond my tears, but I’ll definitely come back here for reference so she can read it or perhaps carry a sign stating all of this 😭😭😭 #MSLAURYNHILLSTANFOREVER

      Well nicki herself worships lauryn she got on her knees and kissed her😭 i mean times change. You have to work for that title and Nicki is queen of rap for this time and she’s proved herself and Lauryn herself has commended her. Nicki being queen of rap doesn’t suddenly discredit Lauryn tho she’s still legendary

    • @rebecca1331
      @rebecca1331 5 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Uncle Osiris how is nicki a creation of the industry? I could argue plenty of female rappers creations of the industry. Nicki writes her music and does what she wants. And Lauryn herself has commended her for it. Just because she likes to express herself more sexually doesn’t make her a “creation of the industry” even her mixtapes back to 2006 she was like that. In order to be a creation of the industry you have to be forced to do what they tell u. Nicki has been blackballed and kept from Grammys because she chooses to go against what the industry tells her. You can look it up.
