this is a great speech and she's a wonderful person! so sweet and humble! i was front row at her ATL concert and she had the warmest smile and was so gracious! i love this woman! If there's anyone to look up to in the industry it's her :)
She is amazing.. so much knowledge.. it's like overwhelming.. However.. I get what she is saying.. by taking it in small doses.. and breaking it down and making it really simple.. I think it's about simplicity.. at the core.. the less details.. the less complication .. and the more we all can understand.. bless sistren.. looking fwd to more interviews.. and music..
Oh I was trying to find so hard and buy her biography from each and every bookshop online but they're completely sold out everywhere! No matter are you from the USA or not, it seems that her music and biographies are a hot potato even on this day. I was lucky to even receive her Unplugged CD a couple of months ago as they were almost sold out too. Lauryn is something really rare and unique and we can see it from that how her biographies seem to be so so rare and hard to get as well.
Its no way no one caught the Holy Ghost ,this woman is speaking nothing but the truth of GOD, JESUS CHRIST I NEVER HEARD SO MUCH TRUTH NOT EVEN FROM THE BEST PREACHER! STAY WOKE LAUREN YASSSS
I cannot express how well this connects to what God has been doing in me personally. Coming to a place of selfless service is where God wants us, period.
I love her. I am 14 and i admire her so much and judging from what she said people thought of her in her childhood and how she was different from others i have that in common with her.
They’re the same… root word. Best to feel good in the heart, and sometimes that means letting go of both. Humans, while on the planet,.. remember that 😊🖤♥️
@JoYful Sounds roots words yes but i don't think it's the same. You can be right for the wrong reasons may be because you want to 1 up a sibling who did something wrong and you having the power at that point to tattletale and feel good or be in a moral high ground. Wars are also that complex at times. eg the Iraq invasion due to "WMD"
You say that not taking into consideration of being grounded. If we were referring to that then we wouldn’t even be having this discussion. The way you feel is your inclination of what’s real and to come. Who’s to say what the high road is… it is the very person who claiming the position. So yes what you feel should always come first and who you are will determine the move. Again, encouraging accountability is more what should be happening instead of continually trying to convince folks of the latter. So don’t get distracted or confused by the word righteous for it can be dangerous when used as such
Accountability is real and in effect in the universe because more people are waking up to it and the shift will be made in various ways, that’s peacefully and violently. Just be sure you are clear with yourself and where you stand, so you won’t fall for unfair bull shyte 😉
Wow. It's so rare now that I see on video a grounded person speak of simple things, so humbly and naturally. Contrary to watching nearly any other tv personality on the ether, I feel more human after watching her speak.
One of greatest black women to ever live💯 she seen all the evil in the music industry first hand and wouldn’t let it consume her🖤👑 She was and still is the North Star for black women and men
The industry was and still is intimidated by her profound wisdom, even at such a young age. I can't pin point one artist, these days that has the ability to stand in their truth. Money, greed and likes.. So sad
I couldn't agree more. what do interviews/speeches by artists even mean anymore? everyone is so "media-trained" and no interview is genuine anymore. Warriors like Lauryn epitomize what an artist should be. Someone who speaks the truth and isn't afraid of society and popular opinion. This kind of artist is becoming extinct and it's really sad
This woman is incredible. Not only powerful in her lyrics but the ability to get so personal like this, wow. I would want my daughter to look up to women like this.
Except the music industry didnt have the opportunity to shut her down..She warned us on the miseducation with lost ones."you may win some but you really lost one" listen to those lyrics clearly it far beyond wyclef or a relationship. On her un plugged she told us "ill Get out" and thats exactly what she did. If you think about it she played the industry not vice versa and we still got to hear it
Because they're so surprised about how humble she is... or tries to be. This speech means the world to me, a true inspiration. The Miseducation album has helped me to come to terms with my past and present and Lauryn is one of my biggest favourite artists of all time. She's also a great role model.
omg wow!!! i like hearing her speak. this is my first time actually listening to hear talk. i've heard her sing and act but to hear her speak about life is a whole different thing. she speaks or spoke, i haven't heard her speak recently, incredibly.
Such an inspiration at such a young age. I was a high schooler at this time and loved Lauryn. It crushed me to see her wither away in the spotlight, but I understand. Watching this really was a pick me up! Lauryn you are BEAUTIFUL! More young people need to get in tune with their spirituality and not shy away from letting God use them. If more people in general were as in touch with "self" and God as Lauryn was at this age, the world would be a much better place.
Why isn't she in the spotlight anymore? She speaks honestly, genuine, is not afraid to speak those harsh truths or be direct, she doesn't talk in a media-trained way just to be part of youtube compilations or funny interviews like most celebrities do nowadays. How did she become completely ignored by the larger public, and now we have singers that do nothing with their position or fame except be part of scandals and just rake in the dough. There's exceptions of course but the way celebrities have been conditioned now to appeal to internet popularity and internet approval means that so much of our pop-culture comes across soulless, any time any one has anything political to say they're a pretentious piece of shit and collectively heckled. What the fuck does our pop-culture exist for if its only to create content, endless content, just mundane and with little impact. We really have let our culture become industrialised, its either used by corporations to appeal to certain parties or target demographics using algorithms, rather than the artist having their own platform.
Woow Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his migh.Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand
i Love her Ministry. she is so prophetic and i dont know if this is a christian school but i am glad that she brought everything into perspective . she brought to the source which is God.
She is absolutely amazing I could listen to her for days and not get tired.i wish I had her. bravery.wisdom.knowledge.and she was only 25 imagine her wisdom at 50
This is why Ms Hill is still an inspirational and positive sista even now. This is why Ms Hill trashes folks like Nicki Ninja (whatever her name is), Beyonce, Lady Gaga et al with her intelligence, intellect and overall grace. This is why Ms Hill is still relevant to pop culture today. Her spirituality, sincerity and genuine self is an antidote to all the BS with what is happening in the current music industry.
Gm edagdwg thanks for sharing she is free God bless her she lives with her soul God blessed her to do just want she's doing 🙏🙏🙏 Carry's her peace linda j ☮️❤️ ❤️💯 💯❤️❤️💯 💯💯 💯💯 💯💯 💯
this is a great speech and she's a wonderful person! so sweet and humble! i was front row at her ATL concert and she had the warmest smile and was so gracious! i love this woman! If there's anyone to look up to in the industry it's her :)
Gm edagdwg thank you U Tube she is doing what God tells her you are so beautiful she is learning from God herself not the people linda j.peace ❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯💯💯
Lauryn Hill has always been one of my many favorites and sister you are way too modest. Every since the Apollo you have been a great example of motivation ✊🏿🙏🏿✌🏿
I was a teen early or 20s and Learned from this speech the concept of the difference between being right and being righteous. Well I tried to Jedi Mind trick my mom. I Let her know that she was just trying to be right , but she wasn't righteous in her delivery about whatever it was and she righteously got my ass together. Now as a mature man i understand I WAS RIGHT in my observation but not righteous to call her out lol. Oops. Lauryn had them booster cables in my back. Dude Felt grown AND deep lol....😂🤣 early hotep bs.
she is so connected and in the moment...she is so humble and genuine...no wonder she had her light put out in the mainstream music...they don't want artist like her connecting with the masses.like she said whenever you stand for truth and goodness..you will always get resistance...amen!!!she wanted to put out a higher message so they shut her down.
@hellokittycutie2003 I attended her concert in Charleston SC, IT WAS AMAZING!!! Doors opened at 9 she arrived on @ 11:40 after her dj arrived at about 11. It was cool. Just chilled out talked with other fans and waited patiently. . . . I mean this is LAURYN HILL. . . . .just the chance for ths intimate affair was worth ANY wait. . . . . I have waited 10+ years. She performed like she was 25. Her voice: Amazing Her band: Under her control. . . . . it was an AMAZING experience.
She has probably my favorite voice eva, if that makes sense. Its so soothing to hear.....i literally sit in my dorm room and do homework and study n stuff listenin to lauryn speak. Therapeutic.
She is awsome. Words can't describe how intellectually, musically, lyrically, spiritually strong and awesome she is. It's like when you see her you expect something so encouraging and inspiring to come out her mouth and you don't want to do anything else but soak up everything she is saying. Despite what she thinks of herself she is awesome.
First time seeing this. Being compared to this woman a majority of my life from high school to this day. I love her. I wish she would have provided details on how to acquire tough skin through the creator and what that looks like. Because when we just make statements of what happened, we don't really provide how it happened. What That looks like? Who it comes from. Provide examples the stories. Standards and boundaries created. The pain from the experiences that disappointed and hurts crushed. The decisions and benefit of the doubts that we give. The tricks the leaps and bounds, the falls, and limitations.The behavior the resolve of it all. This is what we are witnessing today on the internet people sharing stories and people evolving and devolving from a word.
People... She even said in the video "SHE KNOWS NOTHING AT ALL" She is only offering what she HAS learned!! She is a wise woman indeed.
Yea so wise 💀 racism is just way cool and defines a person so well doesn’t it 💀
@@randomshit65still believe those rumors, i see. Yikes
this is a great speech and she's a wonderful person! so sweet and humble! i was front row at her ATL concert and she had the warmest smile and was so gracious! i love this woman! If there's anyone to look up to in the industry it's her :)
she's so humble
this speech was great. powerful and just took my mind higher
I'm a FAN all over again.
She is amazing.. so much knowledge.. it's like overwhelming.. However.. I get what she is saying.. by taking it in small doses.. and breaking it down and making it really simple.. I think it's about simplicity.. at the core.. the less details.. the less complication .. and the more we all can understand.. bless sistren.. looking fwd to more interviews.. and music..
we are becoming godz...get ready to make the sickzem sit down...remember this moment...peace
Well love love u lauryn hill
understanding u ... and loving it. BLess!
What she says around 6:50 is sooo true! You see it in hip hop now
Oh I was trying to find so hard and buy her biography from each and every bookshop online but they're completely sold out everywhere! No matter are you from the USA or not, it seems that her music and biographies are a hot potato even on this day. I was lucky to even receive her Unplugged CD a couple of months ago as they were almost sold out too. Lauryn is something really rare and unique and we can see it from that how her biographies seem to be so so rare and hard to get as well.
Her Dreadlocks are so 😍😍
Fye 🔥
I just started mines n I be feeling my inner Lauren hill be coming out
Yes that are💥💯
Locs**** n yes very beautiful 🥰
Yasss they are everything!!! 🙌🏾
“It’s more important to be righteous than to be right.” -Lauryn Hill 🙌🏾‼️
Very mature and enlightened even at 25!
Where has the female mind gone nowadays? What a breath of fresh air.
I forgot that she was *ONLY* 25 here!!! That’s truly a gift from God.
25 years old...wisdom well beyond her years even then. God walks with this woman.
Its no way no one caught the Holy Ghost ,this woman is speaking nothing but the truth of GOD, JESUS CHRIST I NEVER HEARD SO MUCH TRUTH NOT EVEN FROM THE BEST PREACHER! STAY WOKE LAUREN YASSSS
That's right sis. 🕆❤🙏🙌
"I'm not really a person that speaks well"....girl... Lauryn. Stop.
She is Jesus level humble
I cannot express how well this connects to what God has been doing in me personally. Coming to a place of selfless service is where God wants us, period.
She seems to have the voice, humility and intelligence to be trained as a motivational speaker.
What amazes me is that she was in her mid 20’s here.
She’s not a motivational speaker she’s a Prophet
F’sure💯
No she's trained in life don't get it twisted...🙌🏾🙏🏽💛👸🏽💯
If ever I feel demotivated, I look to this woman for inspiration. Thank you, Lauryn Hill.
Same I come to the full version of this interview when I feel at a standstill
Lauryn, you're blessed by your voice and your brain. You're truly beautiful. You're an inspiration. Thank you.
I love her. I am 14 and i admire her so much and judging from what she said people thought of her in her childhood and how she was different from others i have that in common with her.
Girl ur not 14 anymore heyyyyyyy

"Were not separated by anything" - the force is strong with this one
wow she's soo talented but still so humble
I love her devotion to God.
Humbling.
God is the last refuge of the intellectually defective.
@@andrewgoodbody2121 duh, why else would God have sent so many text messages to tell us to take refuge in him instead of in you?
she is so beautiful, love her
I love this speech, she's a beautiful soul!!!
if she did a speech like this nowadays kids would complain about her talking about God and parents would sue *smh*
Wow! She is very special and a true gift from God. I hope those students learned something that day to take with them into adult hood.
I love Lauryn Hill! Beautiful voice, beautiful skin tone, and most importantly beautiful mind!
The industry was and still is intimidated by her profound wisdom, even at such a young age. I can't pin point one artist, these days that has the ability to stand in their truth. Money, greed and likes.. So sad
I miss Lauryn, she is sooo uplifting and speak in truth always!
Her dreads were amazing...why Lauryn...why you cut them? :)
Love you forever!
Right..

She’s so beautiful 🫶🏾

I love how she didn’t conform to these white standards black people conform to. No surgery , no weave.
So deep. Speaks right from her heart, from her soul.

Wow! I never heard the matrix broke down like that before thanks for this post. I love Laryn Hill.
Even when she speaks it sounds like she's dropping an sick verse.
So many artists make many records that never make the impact her one album has made.
I love this women, she speaks with such conviction. Know matter what ill always be one of her biggest fans.
Wow this is truly mind blowing
She is a queen.
