Whats going on with Lauryn Hill?.I mean its understandable she wants to do some things differently, but I mean you sure couldn't recognise her (or her music) today. I have fond memories of her droppin the "Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" Her part in the Fugees (one of hip hops greatest ambassadors) was nothing but brilliant. Soulful, articulate and able to drop jewels on any beat. I am hopping she makes a turn around not only for her fans - but for hip hop as a whole.
Lauryn represented a lot for us. She went where no other female hip hop artist had ventured before - the underbelly of hip hop - where an artist is an artist. Not trying to pull any punches or score points for herself. In so doing she -
struck a cord in all our hearts. I remember the first time I heard "everything is everything" - (my cousin played the cd all day)and how the rhymes she dropped seemed to emphasize what a lot of us were goin through.
So is Lauryn ever going to drop somethang that makes us think that way again? Highly doubtful from what I see. She looks like she has a thousand demons to go up against - and they seem to be winning. So when you listen to any of the old Lauryn Hill tracks - spare a thought for the state she is in today.
The picture below shows (at least for me) all the bullshit she is currently going through. Does she need our support? - hell yeah - why am I even ask'n?. For all of you who have some kind of influence or contact with Lauryn- help us do somethang here.
On a personal level: LAURYN!! PLEASE COMEBACK HOME TO HIP HOP!
