Lauryn Hill performs her timeless song Ex Factor Live From her first solo album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill share comment and please Hit the Like if you like :)
I thought about it really hard and realized Lauryn Hill is my lifetime favorite artist. I listened to her to get through dark times, to celebrate highlights, my go to karaoke songs, my cleanup the house songs. Her music is what I want to sing out loud. Miss the Fuugees.
WHO THE HELL IS REPLACING LAUREN HILLS SWAG? NO ONE HAS COME CLOSE TO HER TALENT SINCE MISEDUCATION was released! The cloths, voice, the messages, the subtle sexy, etc etc. This is everyday for her!
“Lauren Hill said her heart was in Zion, I wish her heart still was in rhymin, cuz who the kids gon listen to, i guess me if it isn’t you” - Kanye West
Right? I'm glad to find someone who feels this way too! Whenever I see the backup singers very much into a song, it just hypes me up so much and makes me enjoy it that much more!
The way she ask "where were you when I needed you" on the album like that's so powerful cause of course she sings it beautifully, but the energy and emotion in the recording like wow
You see I loved hard once, but the love wasn't returned I found out the man I'd die for, he wasn't even concerned And time it turned, He tried to burn me like a perm Though my eyes saw the deception, my heart wouldn't let me learn From um, some, dumb woman, was I, And every time he'd lie, he would cry and inside I'd die. My heart must have died a thousand deaths Compared myself to Toni Braxton thought I'd never catch my breath Nothing left, he stole the heart beating from my chest I tried to call the cops, that type of thief you can't arrest Pain suppressed, will lead to cardiac arrest Diamonds deserve diamonds, but he convinced me I was worth less When my peoples would protest, I told them mind their business, cause my shit was complex More than just the sex I was blessed, but couldn't feel it like when I was caressed I'd spend nights clutching my breasts overwhelmed by god's test I was god's best contemplating death with a Gillette But no man is ever worth the paradise manifest 🥺♥️
I’ll be damned if my son doesn’t know who lauryn hill is . He is a month away from being born and this will be sung all the time . The absolute greatest of all time
@New Guy Paradise manifest. In other words, slitting your wrists and manifesting Paradise immediately. Not what you want to do. In other words, Paradise is coming soon enough. Don't put yourself there over a man. Brilliant lyrics, actually. That part's taken from an original Fugees song..
Actually I think it’s more like suicide(Gillette reference)is a sin which would prevent you from going to heaven(paradise) and no man(or women) is worth that.
"I know this doesn't concern this message; isn't it amazing how everything tells GOD'S story the birds sun,the trees, how the Bible talks about everything that exists. He is such a good Father and Friend!His love is like none other!"
Spitting about something with meaning and making sense. She's the perfect storyteller. OH, YESSSS she's fully covered!!! That's what rap music supposed to stand for.
“My heart must’ve died a thousands death before myself and Toni Braxton never though I’d catch my breath...No man is ever worth the paradise...manifest!” Ladies and Gentlemen and Those That Identify differently !!!! The one and only!! The Poetess Lauryn Hill!!!!
5:00 - 600 You see i loved hard once, but the love wasn't returned. I found out the man I'd die for he wasn't even concerned; In time it turned, he tried to burn me like a perm. Though my eyes saw the deception, my heart wouldn't let me learn. For, some dumb woman was I and every time he'd lie he would cry and inside i'd die. My heart must have died a thousand deaths, compared myself to Toni Braxton thought I'd never catch my breath. Nothing left, he stole the heart beating from my chest, I tried to call the cops that type of theif they can't arrest. Pain suppressed will lead to cardiac arrest. Diamonds deserve Diamonds but he convinced me I was worth less. When my peoples would protest, I told 'em mind they business 'cause my shit was complex. More than just the sex. I was blessed but couldn't feel it like when i was caressed. I'd spend nights clutchin my breast overwhelmed by god's test. I was god's best, contemplatin death because you left, but no man has ever worth a paradise
I need to put this in my girls memory book. My plan is to present them with all the years of prescious memories when they graduate high school - but I have to share this now!!
2024 & here for it my first born son born in 1998 it's always been me him and Lauryn Hill. His 1st bday 🥳🎂 party we jammed youre just too good to be true ✨❤️ can't take my eyes off you you be like heaven to touch
Lauryn has always been one of a kind truly. Her look, her beauty, her style, voice, sound, and music. Her runs are so unique. She's the epitome of "in their own lane" and "in a class of their own".
If I had one wish it would be to sit a table with her and have her speak wisdom to me and I to her. I just love her. Her honesty, her vulnerability, her realness, her humbleness, her boldness but especially how she is not ashamed of the Lord Jesus Christ and she boldly proclaims and uplifts His name
Damn I was bumping this song back in 98! And I feel like people I meet that know this song are members of My Tribe! I wish music could be this good again! Love you Miss Lauryn Hill
It could all be so simple But you'd rather make it hard Loving you is like a battle And we both end up with scars Tell me, who I have to be To get some reciprocity No one loves you more than me And no one ever will Is this just a silly game That forces you to act this way? Forces you to scream my name Then pretend that you can't stay Tell me, who I have to be To get some reciprocity No one loves you more than me And no one ever will No matter how I think we grow You always seem to let me know It ain't workin', It ain't workin' (No, it ain't workin') And when I try to walk away You'd hurt yourself to make me stay This is crazy, this is crazy (This is crazy, uh-huh) I keep letting you back in How can I explain myself? As painful as this thing has been I just can't be with no one else See I know what we've got to do You let go, and I'll let go too 'Cause no one's hurt me more than you And no one ever will No matter how I think we grow You always seem to let me know It ain't workin', It ain't workin' (It ain't workin') And when I try to walk away You'd hurt yourself to make me stay This is crazy, this is crazy Care for me, care for me I know you care for me There for me, there for me Said you'd be there for me Cry for me, cry for me You said you'd die for me Give to me, give to me Why won't you live for me? Care for me, care for me You said you care for me There for me, there for me Said you'd be there for me Cry for me, cry for me You said you'd die for me Give to me, give to me Why won't you live for me? Care for me, care for me You said you care for me There for me, there for me Said you'd be there for me Cry for me, cry for me You said you'd die for me Give to me, give to me Why won't you live for me? Care for me, care for me You said you care for me There for me, there for me Said you'd be there for me Give to me, give to me Why won't you live for me? Cry for me, cry for me You said you'd die for me
Daaaamn!!!! I love everything about this, her singing, her movements, her hand gestures, her intention, her style!!!!! FML she was so ahead of her time back then.. 23 years old, mother of two, lyricist, musician, singer, artist! Fucccccckkkkk
Fell in love with this woman’s voice as a child. Now I’m 28 still bompin Lauren and the fugees. All thanks to my father who’s a huge fan of the fugees. This empress has it all vocally and lyrically not to mention her rapping flows. Imo she still hasn’t received the recognition she truly deserves. A truly great artist. ✊🏾
Biff McLargeHuge facts. I before the quarantine she was gonna b at Sony hall. N I was nervous abt buying the tickets bc she has a terrible rep for either not showing up or being really late. I didn’t end up goin to the concert n neither did Lauryn Hill😒
Lauryn Hill my FAVORITE of all time. But Sis was high as a kite 😂 - I bet she was; she has grown so much. Her wisdom was super strong then but now she still dropping wisdom like no other artist. Notice she always has her clothes on. She is clothed with wisdom, and more Prescious than fine gold. You are too to the women who are reading this. Keep your standard high. He who FINDS a wife finds a good thing. Stop lurking, begging and drooling over a man - he’ll come if it’s meant to be. 🤗❤️❤️❤️
What make her whole album so 🔥 is because it all came from a real place. She was singing about Wyclef Jean. He was playing major games with her. He got married to someone else and was still trying to be with Lauryn which Lauryn was taking him back.
god her voice sounds so clear here - such confident liquid soul, velvety smooth and textured in all registers of her singing. She sounds as good as the studio album here. I miss her voice so much.
It could all be so simple (ba-ba-ba-baby, baby, baby) But you'd rather make it hard (huh, uh) Loving you is like a battle (it's like a battle) And we both end up with scars Tell me, who I have to be (who I have to be) To get some reciprocity See no one loves you more than me (more than me) And no one ever will (no one ever will, yeah) Is this just a silly game?

(I don't understand why) As painful as this thing has been I just can't be with no one else See I know what we've got to do (yeah) You let go (you let go) And I'll let go too (and I'll let go) 'Cause no one's hurt me more than you (No one's hurt me more than you) And no one ever will No matter how I think we grow You always seem to let me know It ain't workin' (it ain't workin') It ain't workin' (it ain't workin') And when I try to walk away You'd hurt yourself to make me stay This is crazy (this is crazy) Oh, this is crazy (this is crazy) care for me, care for me I know you care for me (There) there for me, there for me Said, you'd be there for me (Cry) cry for me, cry for me You said, you'd die for me (Give) give to me, give to me Why won't you live for me? care for me, care for me You said, you care for me (There) there for me, there for me Said, you'd be there for me (Cry) cry for me, cry for me You said, you'd die for me (Give) give to me, give to me Why won't you live for me? care for me, care for me You said, you care for me (There) there for me, there for me Said, you'd be there for me (Cry) cry for me, cry for me You said, you'd die for me (Give) give to me, give to me Why won't you live for me? care for me, care for me You said, you care for me (There) tthere for me, there for me Said, you'd be there for me (Give) give to me, give to me Why won't you live for me?

In the fifth grade this song touched me. I would play it over and over, having no clue why it resonated at such an early age. To this day I play this over and over like it came out yesterday!
