On this day 25 years ago, Lauryn Hill released The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

If she had a regular career of

One classic
1 good album
2 meh albums
And another trash

She’s viewed in a different Light

Exactly

Disagree. There's artists that are viewed as all time greats that have one classic album and other albums that range from good to trash.

Disagree. There's artists that are viewed as all time greats that have one classic album and other albums that range from good to trash.

But they have those albums shyt on online and used to tear them down in GOAT debates though. I literally see anniversary threads of Kingdome come and MCHG used to shyt on Jay Z.

When you only have one album(and it’s a masterpiece), you don’t have these problems. Dying in your prime before your fall off has the same effect

 

[semicko82]

I still claim this as one of the two hip hop albums to win the Album of the year Grammy.
It's hip hop enough
I know some cats on here will claim it's not a true hip hop album

 

[Sbp]

I think the one solo studio album adds to her mystique
I don't remember shyt about the unplugged album

Man yall gon stop with this lie.
Edit: Let me clarify that USED to be the sentiment. But once the truth came out about why she disappeared that shyt changed.

I hear you but her talent and skill level should have a much deeper catalog than it has

My point is that those albums don't hurt his legacy. Any artist that is considered great usually have that ONE album that elevated them to that status.

 

[L. Deezy]

Greatest album ever by a femcee

Top 10 greatest album ever

Top 10?

I agree with the first statement

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

She’s having a tour for the album but you have to be a fool to buy tickets.

 

[avon barksdale]

Why you didn't post the best song on the album

 

[zayk35]

Man yall gon stop with this lie.

....She was out saving souls

The album was for the ladies to love and they still do. But goddammit that album is overrated as hell. I said it in 98 and I stand by it 25 yrs later. I only like X-factor and that's it.

Greatest album ever by a femcee

Easily.

Bolded is wildly disrespectful. The 2nd part got it right

 

[Ziggiy]

Top 10?

I agree with the first statement

Ohhhh yes


That album is fukking IMMACULATE. Its hard to to make an album with 9-10 perfect songs let alone SIXTEEN.

She did that shyt. She deserves everything that album afforded her.


I ain’t crazy enough to be buying no tickets though
