I love the way she did not allow any of them to disrespect Ms. Hill...stop the foolery.
Yes absolutely!!
When you're up. Everybody is your friend. When you're down. Its fuck you. We just gonna step on you and try to keep you down. This is the sad truth about my people 😞. We should be lifting her back up. She is a beautiful and talented Black Queen. Her music was inspiring. She didn't sing this wap bullshit of today. She was too positive. That's what we need.
That part
Damn straight.
Exactly! Well Said. More of US should do that.
This lady was NOT playing. She was not for the clowning.
May us all have this type of loyalty in our associates.
💯💯💯
Exactly, that's a real queen right there, not like others tarnishing and bringing each other down.
🙏🏾 amen
Straight truth... Absolutely. 💛
That's a loyal homegirl
She wasn't having nobody slide no jokes in
Yeah I love how she stood up for to
Homeboy, everything ain't fun n laughter instead of making fun of
Our sister with such amazing talent
We should pray for em
You can say that again, a real queen
Thank you. I don't like people talk shite on Ms. Lauryn.
Same here. It angers me when I hear people talking ish about her.
And we Stand on that with you...🙋
This is what friendship looks like people! Take notes.
Real shit cus ain’t no friend suppose to be doin nun besides uplifting and loving and supporting
@@laylaprincess5066 facts! That’s why I try my best to not be around toxic ass people!
Yep, much respect
Absolutely...respect is paramount!
Not really. It’s just Jamila desperately wanting to be seen as the cool girl.
That's how you speak about a FRIEND in her absence...🛡️🗝️🔓✊
Makes me feel good to know Lauryn has Jamila in her corner.
A real friend don't let no one trash yo name,even when you ain't around💯💯💯
Thank you for holding Lauryn Hill up Jamila T. Davis.
Lauren Hill's only problem is that she is an empath in a narcissistic world.
😱. 😏. You get it ❣️
Couldn't have said it better myself!
So many people suffering from that today
I am not certain that most of us comprehend how perverse and deranged our society is, we judge those that show the affects of it, yet, we all have been affected.
I appreciate how you put this into words so very much
Facts
She was about to ride out on EVERYONE at that table… didn’t crack a smile or nothin 💪🏽💯. She’s a real one
She is!
@@KarenHunterShowShe even have that Lauryn Hill raspy voice
fINALLY SOMEONE IS SPEAKING facts.... ABOUT MS LAURYN SHE IS AWESOME
Kennise Spivey- finally someone is speaking what u want to hear , so like a idiot u call it fact.
The black race lady’s and gentlemen, lead by emotion
Ken Yoo j we
She is a Earth Angel with a mission to spread knowledge. She is a gift in this dark world.
Definitely for us...
Two strong women with principles, Jamila and Lauryn, nothing but respect for the two of them.
A principled scammer?😒
Yeah...yeah.
“We used to email each other every single day.” So touching.
Put some Respect on her name!
Yess... Respect and Love to Ms. Lauren Hill💕
You mean 😏 Lauryn Hill
I remember going to church with my sister this was in South Orange New Jersey like in the mid-90s and Miss Lauryn Hill was there she gave me a big hug and she was very soft-spoken I felt the love she's a very nice person
And THATS how u stick up ...stand up for your good friend🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 #truefriendship
An example of real Black sisterhood. These two ladies stuck together. No silliness or fighting each other like these crazy "reality shows".
so why do the crazy reality shows get all of the ratings? People say they love this kind of unity, but they support the depravity.
Lauryn Hill is the Queen, a Queen is never on time !
I’d say a Queen is never late... because she’s the reason everyone is gathered to witness in the first place.
@@MissTeaq Well then the queen should arrive after everyone else.
But she's always on time for those who hear the message and feel the spirit...👍
Yes Queen that’s what we need more of us as sisters lifting one another up instead of tearing each other down...There is a war against us black queens and it sometimes makes we wonder what’s really up??? This touched my heart ❤️
Will ALWAYS Love and Respect Lauryn Hill...I waited for her and she was AMAZING when she comes out. I can understand her plight and she Owned up to it and puts her all on that stage don't knock her.
People don't realize that Lauryn speaks her vulnerabilities through her music. When she says "tell me where's the love in anxiety?"I can understand that she has struggles that can missed if you don't catch it. She answered the question to one of her fans bc he shouted out to her "why are you late?" In her wisdom and honesty she opened up and said she is human and have issues, thanked him and appreciated his question and understands that people laugh at her. I feel like when God calls you to spread His message there will always be that thorn in the flesh to stop the message. I do hope she can strengthen that which is natural and be on time ad much as she can bc she has words of wisdom from on high from the Lord. Remember Solomon and David were psalmist who had great struggles. Pray for her as she attempts to enter this industry bc it is not easy bc her message is so strong the pushback will be greater.
I absolutely Love your response! You cleared up my question. I wanted to know if Lauryn explained why she was so late. I do understand that satan will send blockers and distractions to God's Servants who have work to do. He will send the enemy every time. I Love Lauryn and I understand her struggles! I pray that God delivers her from whatever ailes her. Society tried to break her, that didn't work! Lauryn is truly a light for the righteous!
This Comment is on point. I Appreciate you as well for this
I love to see the sisterhood loyalty.
See the thing that people forget is that in order to "pay back her taxes" she was forced to sign a deal to produce more music and therefore do more live shows to promote that. If you look at if from that point of view, this is a continuation of her jail sentence. If I'm correct, she made no plans to come back to the music industry...so the depression and anxiety that must come with that? yeah I wouldn't be on time either
Wooooh. Id never heqrd that. Helll yes, that would certainly make s difference.
Yep...while the real criminals are never mentioned... it's a travesty of justice.
And this is a perfect example just how people can slander and lie on your name people can also LIFT YOUR NAME AND PROTECT YOUR NAME BASED HOW YOU TREATED THEM
Naw ...black ppl will slander your name even when you do right by them!
Real shit cus ain’t no friend suppose to be doin nun besides uplifting and loving and supporting
Lauryn Hill did not fall from Grace she just left the bull behind
Ain't no grace in that industry...for sure.
Lauryn Hill is naturally talented, intelligent and musical genius
Your true friend you stop them at there tracks awesome
More sister's need to protect and guide and respect each other like that! 💯
@@bobbiekendall1404 yes absolutely!!
Someone defending your honor like this... I think you must have done something right in ones life. Regarding tax evasion; for a while we focused on the “dirty” entertainment industry, and now we find out that it was also her own friends and family.
Lol, how then shall we live
If one truly listens to Lauren's message in her 'return' music, we should understand there were other factors involved in her doing time.
It's all about 'control', selling one's soul.
However, THEY could not Break her. She is one of the GREATS. ✊🏿❤️
You hit the nail on the head. Most men don't have the strength to stand for something and not compromise for the illusion of fame and money. You can be spiritually centered or you can be materially centered. You strive for one and lose the other. I only wish I could meet her. This world is almost completely corrupt. To know what she did and what choice she made, gives me some hope.
🎯🎯🎯🎯
Jokes are cool but goin on and on tryin to squeeze every laugh out of something to be entertaining at someone elses expense can be corny IMO.
👊👊
I Still Love Lauren. 🥰 I Definitely Want Her To Win.
That’s what loyalty looks like. ❤❤❤❤
Lauryn NOELLE Hill
Put some respect on her name!!!!!
Thank you!
@@ricardooringe5024 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Is that her real middle name
@@SuzieQ90 sure is ;)
Yessss!!!! Put some respect on Lauryn Hill's name!! Thank you, Jamila!!
I would love to have this sister as a squad member. ♉
This was beautiful.
Much love and respect for the loyalty and the covering of protection she has for Lauren Hill (is a jewel).👊
THATS RIGHT CHECK THEY ASSES
Prof. Hunter 💎 ❤️❣️
Jamila is a real one and they are intimidated by that in my humble opinion. They seem to enjoy speaking more about downfalls than successes. Thank you Jamila for keeping it all the way 🙌100!
your opinion is far from humble and it's wrong. Jamila is amazing and no one on this side is intimidated by her. We love her.
If she was a man she wouldn’t get dragged for tardiness. If she was a white man she wouldn’t have went to jail for taxes.
BS!
Actually, I was thinking the exact same thing!! Some sort of arrangement to pay the tax without going to jail!! However, in an odd sort of way, if she did not go to jail she would not have met Jamilla and changed her life for the better.
Behind every cloud is a silver lining, I guess.
Jamila, well done for putting them in their place about Lauren ... out of order they were. So what she was late for her concerts .... you dont know what that sistah was going through!
Miss hill kept her integrity. Love her.
I love Lauren Hill, hurry up and come back baby I miss you
I miss Lauryn Hill from the Fugees. Dunno who this Lauren you are talking about
As a true fan I can't defend her lateness. No one is perfect, but I do appreciate her Greatness. Also, it is very nice just to hear a positive story about Ms. Hill. I have learned a lot from her music. Thank you Ms. Hill.
This was a beautiful share ❤
Testify!! Thank you so much for this post.
If you don't have friends who speak well of you AND check anybody who speaks ill of you when you're not in the room... you don't have friends. I love this sister for how she handled this.
Empress Lauren making Queens...that's love❤️❤️
I love that commentary on Lauryn from someone who knows...she is certainly a powerful presence...💁🌹🙅💯
Was able to see her perform in Brooklyn at Boys & girls HS football field for the African Street festival when they had their 1st few hit singles . I used to carry a camera to black events like this. I was able to see her walking away with her mom and I asked her if I could take a picture of her and her beautiful Nubian knots. I got 2 in and her mother said let's go. I got the pictures developed in doubles ( which shows my age ). The next year their Diamond selling album comes out. I went to the record store to get it and saw the line. I was able to get in but they stopped the autograph album line. So I put her picture in an envelope and gave it to security and said could you give this to her and watched him. Things died down and I waited patiently in the store. I saw when he gave it to her. She opened it and Pras looked at it & her mother grabbed the picture, mom was not for the play play. She looked up and held the picture and he pointed at me. I was able to get her to sign it. I told her to keep 1 for herself. She signed it and I think included the studio number cause it was a NJ number and then all 3 allowed me to take pictures if them. Unfortunately the store lights fooled my camera and it didn't really flash so those pictures didn't come out great. Those were the days cause most people didn't want to be bothered with a camera. #MyGratefulCelebrityMoment
I also waited 1.5 hours for her to perform for free at wingate football field, bring your own chairs. She murdered that mic and stage but folks weren't that loyal and folks had to go to work the next day cause it was on Mondays in the summer like late July to August for 4 weeks.
I love your story!
People tend to look down on women going to prison. Men get a party and respect for some strange reason.
I didn't even know who Jamila was, just subscribed to her channel . She's a real one. Respect .
She is.
Lauryn deserves a pass for being late or not showing up. She’s God gives to us.
You're right, who knows what she has to go through just to show up. Folks would be surprised, therefore, "judge nothing before the time." Many times the truth is slow to be revealed, but lies and deception come forth like a flood. So for reasons unknown to the public now will be known later. Have mercy people, and don't help the perpetrators of her misfortunes pull you into their deceptions.
That’s loyalty 💎
This is beautiful ❤️ 💯
LOYALTY💯💯💯🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🦂
Wow Jamila, I first got introduced to you from watching Trap Queens, and immediately became a huge fan. You are so smart and ahead of your time. And such a loyal friend, I hate that you served 10 years but I get that you are so real, not a snitch bone in your body. You carry yourself with so much class, If some of these little girls stop following the Kardashians and other women who don't look anything like them and follow more in your league our race would be so strong again.
A lesson here.. loyalty
Dope story ⭐️
I understand
Yo I got emotional the way she held it down for Lauryn!!! Friends!! How many of us have them
Yass! Lauren Hill is the goat!! Period. Thank you my sista for paying homage!
Please love and respect
Ms Lauryn ❤❤❤❤
Good look Ms Davis !
That’s what’s up!❤️🖤💚🌞
Lauryn Hill is my hero.😎❤
WOW.....
I adore Lauren Hill...She is a Beautiful soul...
danbury ct
She's was on time at the MGM in the DMV. She operates in the prophetic meaning she knows God.
WOW, nice conversation it's not hard to believe that Lauryn is like that
I love this woman she is real 👌👌
People always got something to say.
I went a Lauryn Hill show about 10 years ago and she was 2-hours late. Everybody was drunk and high by the time she hit the stage and she sped the songs up like 3x so you couldn’t sing along. It was trippy.
That's crazy 🤣😂😭 and random
Don’t hurry genius, be it performance start times or form 1040 filings.
Yes Lord bring Lauren to us through the music again. I see Lauren and Jon Batiste collab.
Real friend
I love Lauryn 💘
Karen did this show to poke fun at Lauren's demise. She seemed to get frustrated when the girl was complimenting Lauren and speaking highly of her. She wanted dirt. They pretend they don't know why Lauren fell. Because she wouldn't do the evil sick stuff entertainers do to make it. She didn't sell herself for some money. That's all I need to know to judge her character. She one in a million. Look at all these religious leaders who secretly serve satan, for some money. Cause they weak. But today right is wrong and wrong is right. Ppl make fun of her cause deep down, they know they aren't strong enough. They rather worship a gangsta rapper talking about death and drugs and how good it feels to kill another black man. She ain't straddle the fence like all these other cowards.
it's called FOOLISHNESS FRIDAY...you should really listen to the show so you get who we are and what we do instead of clip trolling and commenting.
@@KarenHunterShow Look you have good shows all the time. But, All this woman been through. Give her some positive energy. I've seen so many people talk badly about her or paint her as crazy. No one wants to acknowledge her strength. We give acclaim to so many dumb pop stars, who sold out for their fame. You have a personal responsibility not to mislead ppl, especially the youth. But the more you talk about foolishnes, the quicker you'll get big offers. I only got time for things that enhance me mentally and spiritually. I'm a no nonsense person. I'm tired of seeing our ppl playing around and acting silly for a check. I'm sorry if I offended your sensibilities.
@@lbjj5837 You nitpicking here and you don't listen to my actual 3-hour M-F show. There's no way you have this reply if you did.
@@lbjj5837 you offended nothing...you are speaking out of pure ignorance.
@@lbjj5837 I know exactly what you mean, and thank you for your insightful comments.
there's a difference between the fact that Lauryn will show up on her own clock, "late", and the judgement that this makes her a "bad person".
this makes her a person you can count on being there after you, not an inherently disrespectful or lazy or rude person.
Jamila T Davis, They call it CPN in Chicago Illinois, Come back Alive.
The GOAT 👑 period
Man...I like her😄
I GOT TO GET THE VASELIIIIIINE
I should clarify something from my last post here. I'm not saying that it's okay that Ms. Hill made some mistakes and that some people paid good money for her shows which resulted in late appearances. But being unkind and judgemental doesn't solve anything or motivate anyone to change their behavior - in fact it has a contrary effect. I'm sure nobody feels worse about those mistakes than her, just as I sorely regret the times I was irresponsible back when I used to use. We are harder on ourselves than anyone else could think of being. I just thank God that finally I was able to stop, I finally just didn't have the temptation anymore. We can't change the past, but we do have to take responsibility for it. We don't need to live in it, though. Love and understanding from others helped me get to a better place. Judgement and unkindness from others at times (especially from those close to me) slowed that process for a while. Because unless we are a sociopath (I'm not, and I'm quite sure Ms Hill isn't either) of course we care that we've made mistakes that have hurt others. Of course we feel badly about it. Love and forgiveness are beautiful things. Nobody will ever be perfect but we can all strive to be more loving and understanding. We can (and should) call someone on their bad behavior. But we don't have to be unkind about it.
🙏🙏
All entertainers are late! I waited on Stephen Marley for 3 hrs once!
unacceptable for people paying money to see someone.
I saw Kid Cudi & Jay Electrona and had to wait 2hours.
By the time Kid Cudi got on stage the show should have been over 😒
@@KarenHunterShow I whole heartedly agree. It’s a matter of respect. When people I “depend” on have time issues I (The Creator) finds ways for me to do without their input. It’s disrespectful and when someone is paying for your services it’s intolerable. As wisdom filled, prolific, creative and talented Ms. Hill is, I won’t put myself in that position again. I feel like Artist get away with it because we put them on such a high pedestal. I’m good on that... I don’t worship humans that eat, sleep, and bleed just like me.
Bullshit ! You don't, and will NEVER know all entertainers or people in the world for you to make such ignorant, retarded, dogmatic statements.
With that level of ignorance, just be grateful for whatever little attention (as undeserved as I suspect it would be in your case) you're ever lucky enough to get!
Exactly. I’ve never been to a concert that started on time 🤷🏾♀️ and I’ve been to many, including a Michael Jackson show.
Good friend .she not fake Blessing to her.
Ms. Hill has one of the most amazing voices ever heard on earth - her natural born talent and skill compare to the likes of Minnie Ripperton, Mariah Carey, Ella Fitzgerald, et. al. The world can be a rough place, something I know myself from much personal experience, and I hate to hear her judged and insulted. So what, she had a drug problem - tons of Americans have had one, myself included. It's not a laughing matter, it's about pain, and being so overwhelmed that sometimes you just can't deal with it. You go, sister. I love your loyalty and sensitivity. There's enough bullying going on in this world. It needs to stop. That's why we had to get rid of Trump, so we can start again and stop tearing each other down. We're so damned tired of unproductive judging - racism, sexism, misogyny, homophobia...it's time for us all to start treating each other with respect, sensitivity, kindness, patience, and fairness. No more Trumps, no more killing people - especially black people, no more mass shootings, no more denying of respect and equal opportunity. Time to live and heal, and stop pretending we don't see those being trampled on and/or left behind. Call it like you see it, no matter who you are or what demographic you fall in, no matter the consequences. How about that Chris Krebs? Lost his job for doing the right thing. Republican too. Screw the consequences, you won't starve and you won't freeze to death even if you lose everything, basic (albeit crappy) help is out there. If we all did that then nobody would lose anything. The BS would stop. Even if a lot of us did that......like Brittany Howard said.....you just gotta hold on. You'll get another job, another place to live, another friend, even another family - whatever you might lose by doing the right thing. Let's all grow a pair, people. And grow our hearts as well. We were put here to love, not judge and hate.
Truth is hard to bear but so necessary to live righteously.
She can be late I’m just gonna want that concert/ birthday party to continue outside the venue lbs
3:01 wiki says Lauryns middle name is Noelle not Nicole
okay!
and its Noelle Hill not Nicole Hill
**Lauryn NOELLE Hill.
Came to say this
Noel Hill
Well...if she's known for it...and you bought the ticket anyway...idk...take some responsibility for your choices. Tailgate. Pre concert party. Come later. Something. Dang.
_These Fools were ready for a Scandal._ *She didn't know the Accountant screwed her over* causing her to do *3mos in Fed Prison.* Lauren's been in 'Hollywood' _(daytime Soap Opera, Movies, etc.)_ and 'Music Industry' since she was a Kid. People have always handled the Business & Tax portion. Even *at her lowest Lauren will still lift up a person who feels defeated.* I'm Glad Lauren Hill spoke life into this Lady after she had been in there for so long and been through a lot.
fools? no one here is that...just the person calling people they don't know fools.
