    she's one of the true artists that saw the nature of the music industry, and didn't want to surround herself with that negativity, dispite her mass appeal. leaving all that success and money behind to find reality again; it shows her priorities and honorable nature. she's one of the artists that gives me that rare sense of purity and innocense, like lupe fiasco and authority zero. i'd love for her to once again spread her love and positivity on this world; now, more than ever.

    Lauryn Hill is exactly what I want in a black woman: strength, intellect and beauty. She's lovely. Last of dying breed. Shame this generation won't have anyone even close to her.

    She's far from crazy...the girl is SMART......her absence in the industry makes a heck of lot of sense.......

    She looks older, but in a good way. It's almost as if she's become a sage and the wisdom she held inside of her is manifesting externally.

  • @rtoriq
    @rtoriq 13 років тому +6

    She hit the NAIL ON THE HEAD (1:21 ) on the aspect of what has always been my theory in terms of accumulating substance...you have to LIVE LIFE. It may be obvious to some of us, but i feel like in this instantaneous generation ppl really honestly don't understand that. Which is just SAD.

  • @JasmineJeane

    I think she just wants to admit that she is not what you guys (we , everyone) has made her out to be. She got lucky. She made a hit record and it was monumental. But she can't live up to the moment in time. She had no idea what she did at the moment was going to rock the world like that and bc it was so Michael Jackson epic is caused some Michael Jackson affects on her .. she just wasn't ready. My heart goes out to her because I can see the hurt, the fear, the guard... I just pray that Ms. Lauryn finds that peace of mind. That she release all her stress to our creator and turns off again if she has to without the fear being forgotten. Peace and Love Ms Lauryn Hill

    The first time i watched it, she did appear to be a little crazy to me because hes dumb and i was feeding into yall. But now i understand what she's saying. She just saying she's been away to live her life. And she is saying it doesnt make sense to keep releasing music about moments you have already moved on from, its no substance, and that puts pressure on musicians . You have to live a little to be able to tell a story. Just like i seen mary j blige talking about how her fans still want her to make sad music, but it doesnt make sense cause she's happy now. Who can be sad and heartbroken for a whole decade like yall are the crazy ones lol.

    @MelissaTicky 13 років тому +3

    The reaction that guy had after she said something that had meaning and was about stretching as a person and needing to just step out of the light and he comes back with ".... so new album?"
    So much respect for a sister who can tell it like it is, respect to her. The man who did the interview i do not think he was ready for Lauryn to be so insightful.

  • @searching4quiet
    @searching4quiet 13 років тому +2

    I respect her even more now than ever. All these media reports that she was mentally ill. So far I have watched a few interviews, and what she's saying is dead on...she makes conscious music that she believes in. She's not out for some capitalistic joy ride. I love Lauryn Hill, and if she never makes another album, her last one is still AMAZING!!!!

  • @Coolvirgingal

    @1SoulfulVibes 8 років тому +8

    Having an interview with a brick wall 101. He obviously wasn't a fan and yes, Lauryn has sometimes been douchey i.e. performing 3 hours plus late. But still, she was actually being real and expressing the frustrations of artistry in general. This dude just has no soul. Sorry not sorry.

    Lauryn is a true artist and a blessed spirit. She knows that we truly RESPECT and LOVE her for not selling her soul and selling out. She stayed true to her Creator, her music, her creativity, her family, and most of all to herself. In my humble opinion that says a whole lot about her character.

  • @manaseh
    @manaseh 13 років тому

    she says good stuff...but the core of it all is,she takes herself too serious,too philosophical and the danger is always moods and frustrations.could be psycological problems too. she should stop thinking the media is out to get her,coz with or without her media and life will carry on.She shouldnt be too dramatic about it,she an excellent artist still.Jah bless.

    @christinaaat it was a typo.. im sure you knew what i meant to say. and you spelled voice wrong.. so what was the point of saying i need to learn how to spell when you did the samething ? lol and lauryn hill looks just fine.. look at pictures of yourself 10 years ago you dont look exactly the same.

  • @apaige22
    @apaige22 12 років тому

    i feel like there should have been a different interviewer for her. someone older maybe...or at least more serious. he's not able to ask the questions that get to the root of who lauren hill is and who she has become since leaving the spot light.

  • @TakIzzzay
    @TakIzzzay 12 років тому

    I know what it means to withdraw totally.. to just catch yourself in mid air and say hey tho the whole world is spinning and it seems like everyone around u is sky high.. stop and breathe or u will find yourself blowing in the wind set adrift, soul sepperated from heart ..and soon all will be left is a fragile body.. stop and save the core of yourself nurture your true essence.. become.

  • @rtoriq
    @rtoriq 12 років тому

    "You have to live life so you have substantial to share, or its kinda pointless & vain." BINGO! EXACTLY! That's why i support artists who do take their time for that reason. And yet all u ever hear on some famous music sites are the dummies who are too damn opinionated, but too damn shallow to understand this point. They just say "Well Prince didn't take long." "Stevie didn't take long." Folks criticized Lauryn, D'Angelo, Maxwell, Sade and yet most of them came back with SOMETHING, not fluff.

  • @DavieyG24
    @DavieyG24 13 років тому

    @glima64 I totally agree about everything you said about Lauryn, shes very real and wasn't willing to sell out who she was to have a career and promote her art..this is really who Lauryn is and its a beautiful thing when people are allowed to express themselves as they are, but why bash Beyonce and Lady GaGa or Jay-Z..do they also not have the right to express themselves and their art as they see fit? For the record I've been to a Lady GaGa concert and don't recall any rituals to the devil.

  • @cet91187
    @cet91187 13 років тому

    i love how people get on here talk as if they KNOW. none of you know whether she does or doesnt have mental illness. and if she does, im not sure why its any of our business. it has nothing to do with her as an artist - so dont worry about it. and just for the record, saying stuff that suggests one cant have mental illness AND be intelligent is just moronic. not only is the combination possible, but some of the most creative and intelligent people in history had some sort of mental illness

  • @Kingjames313
    @Kingjames313 13 років тому

    @glima64 What does that have to do with me or YOU? I understand that statement on Jay's sweater and i agree. Do i worship Satan or Baphomet? No. The Devil is evil not DUMB. Jay-Z is only of being well read, non religious and a free spirit. A lot like myself, I do not conform to Christianity or any religion. I was raised with Christian beliefs, but I fell in love with art and through art history I've learned to be mentally free and understand everything to be based on philosophy not facts.

  • @Kingjames313
    @Kingjames313 13 років тому

    @glima64 No disrespect to u at all and I LOVE Lauryn just as much as you do, but people with comments about Jay-Z like yours are the only ones that give life and power to that BS you speak on, yes I call it BS because what he does in a video has no effect on you or me whether its REAL or fallacy. No one was speaking on it when Busta Rhymes made "Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could" Look at those images. Jay comes from a strictly artistic view and found a niche for popularity because u believe it.

  • @TheAngelrays
    @TheAngelrays 13 років тому

    I love lauryn hill, her music actually has a message. even if she did have a mental breakdown,who can say they have never had problems? nobody. atleast she makes an effort to be aware of being a true artist, and being real. she is an intelligent and talented person. i don't know how true that mental breakdowb stuff is, but even if it is, put yourself in her shoes, and think about how you might be.

  • @Cyber_Sorcersis
    @Cyber_Sorcersis 14 років тому

    @MrGrip777 The "conscious look" does not make it 2 far in 'the industry". Look at E. BADU then and now, it's all a big game. Image it everything, it's what little girls look at and want 2B like. "THEY", don't want young afros and locs running around here talking about "fight the power", that would B 2 dangerous! These artist have stylist and image consultants who advise them on how 2 look, and the strong 1's stand on their square, but eventually F U want 2 remain "in " U gotta sell out a little.

    @MrGrip777 Its sad but true. U sell out or get out. Looks like some get out , come back then sell out, having five children to take care of must have some financial toll on her, I can't C any other motivation 4 this "new look". Good thing I'm 1 of them that can C past the image and just hear the message. Blessings 2 her and her children!
