    Lauryn Hill is a triple threat. She can sing, act and rap. I personally think she’s the best female rapper. Check out her album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. Every song is 🔥🔥🔥

      seriously -- that Lauryn Hill album is one of the BEST ALBUMS of all time -- in ANY music genre!! Her Fugees bandmate Wyclef Jean's Carnivale album is fantastic too.

  • @valw5059
    @valw5059 25 дней назад +1

    I think one of the reasons for this songs success is that back then we ALL knew the Roberta Flack version…and this update was close enough that there was instant recognition. No need to lean the lyrics, we already knew them. It’s a great version and Lauren Hill is amazing.

  • @brettmiller7138
    @brettmiller7138 2 месяца назад +23

    The song in itself is just amazing. They did a great job with the remake. The opening mirrors Roberta Flack. Can't relate to modern twist but her voice is beautiful.
    Hope one day you react to The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face...very special

  • @carolynquinn8325

    You can hear all three members of the Fugees - Lauryn, Wyclef, and Pras - on their track "Ready or Not". The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is easily one of my favourite albums of all time. Absolutely legendary from the first beat of the first song all the way to the last note of the hidden track (Tell Him). Even the skits between the songs are wonderful. Everything is Everything is easily the most popular song of her solo career, but my heart will always always belong to Doo Wop (That Thing) "don't be a hard rock, when you really are a gem".

    • @stephaniegeer1691

    The multi-talented Ms. Lauryn Hill., was a part of the Fugees (short for Refugees). One of the all-time greats. She went on to a very successful solo career. She is right up there with the likes of Whitney, Mary J. Blige. She can do it all. Sing, rap, act and write music. She was in Sister Act 2. Her solo album "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill", she won several Grammy's including Record of the Year at the 1998 Grammy Awards. Recommend listening to all of the Fugees before heading into Lauryn's solo material.

  • @kristinpark8042

  • @katec8796

    ☝time was interjected in to every conversation lol ❤ This sing was so huge......for good reason. The Fugees did go on to therir own projects. The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill is an album to hear in its entirety. Do Wop (That Thing) was a big song from Lauryn's record but they are all so good.

  • @maysonstorm4956
    @maysonstorm4956 2 месяца назад +1

    If you really haven't heard any Lauryn Hill songs you should definitely check out her single "X-Factor". That's at the very least because her entire "Miseducation of Lauryn Hill album" is perfect from front to back, It really is a damn near perfect album.

    STILL slaps just as hard as the 1st time i EVER heard

    Lauryn Hill has always been a conundrum to talk about for me. She had everything. Sing, rap, act and was strikingly beautiful. She wasn't a dancer but so what. She did all the other things at a high level. Her first solo album is one of the greatest albums of all time. She practically swept the awards that year. She should've been one of the greatest artists period. That's a funny statement after noting the success she had and if it was just about the art, I'm sure she would've been just that. It was all these other life factors that got in the way of that. Her challenges have been documented and known and talked about at nauseam so I won't speak on them. I just sometimes wonder how big she would've gotten under different circumstances.
    That first Fugees album is one of the greatwst hip hop albums of all time as well. Wclef had a decent solo career and was big in the producing area. Pras also had a couple of solo hits.

    ok, so this is a month old now and I just checked your chanel, you still haven't checked out any more Fugees or Lauryn Hill.
    I suggest "Nappy Heads" or "Fu-gee-La". Other Fugees hits were "Ready or Not" or "Vocab". Or you go straight into her solo album and check out "Everything is Everything" or "Doo-Wop" for a good mixture of singing and rapping or "Ex-Factor" for a straight RnB balad. All three were singles, had videos and were massive successes.

The second group would be sisters of Mercy and the song would be this corrosion. And Bob Seger and the silver bullet band and the song would be still the same.
