Lauryn Hill Finally Exposes Who Ruined Her Career 

Lauryn chose to leave the industry because she said it was full of corrupt and evil people. She did not want to play by its rules anymore. I think most intelligent people know she has been proven right. They dont want a real conscious artist like her so she is not as successful because she wants no parts of that machine. If you are a real fan then you know she made this very clear on her unplugged acoustic album.

I don’t feel her career is ruined. She is an outstanding artist and can make her comeback at anytime. She has proven her greatness!!! I think it’s just her preference.

Her career didn’t go downhill smh…she CHOSE HERSELF ❤

She is one of the only voices that still sounds golden nearly 30 yrs later! Just remarkable and proof that she has stayed away from drugs and other toxins that could have ruined her voice.

Hands down Miseducation was THE BEST album ever created. I will always love this woman

Why do these parents let their kids leave with these grown men for a career?? I also the blame the parent as well as the creep creeping on the child.

I don't think her career failed. People always criticize when you don't chase the fame and fortune as hard as they would if the shoe was on the other foot. I think she understands there's more to life than just a music career and she followed her heart. To this day 6-6-23 any stage she graces she burns it up on track! Much respect sis yeah!

You never can destroy a talent like Ms Hill, all she has to do is pick up a guitar and she would fill any arena, it’s all up to her as to what is wants to do because her talent is so immense, speaking purely on her Talents

It’s never a mystery when someone disappears from Hollywood

Her name rings and we pick up as if she been dropping hits this whole time. What is authentic, lives on beyond our understanding and validation and her art is just that. Much respect for her.

It's crazy how some artist can drop so much wisdom and be victims of what they talk against.

She was in loved with a guy who drained her energy. She was very gifted.

Lauryn hit the music industry like Jordan hit the NBA... Won so many Grammys she could barely carry em all.. To this day no artist can match her status at that time. And all that was just off one album.. Lauryn Hill is really the Female G.O.A.T 🐐, but we never say it. Or at least not enough.

This is the perfect example of being the whole package and not believing that you are all you need. Lauryn will always be number one!!!

As her former makeup artist that went to Rome with her and has the receipts for her “Christmas at The Vatican “ performance, I can attest to the Brother Anthony story!!!! She brought him to Rome with us and was locked up with him preaching and worshiping day and night with him.. she performed a speech infront of children that was distasteful and we were kicked out of the Vatican and had to leave the next day.

How wyclef feel betrayed by Lauren?! Did wyclefs wife think Lauren betrayed him too?! Damn. Lauren is and will always be a queen🙌🏻

I think they ruined her, she was a child at the end of the day and he was definitely grooming her if eventually they got intimate, and then she eventually drowned in the sorrow. Not saying she didn't have some part in her careers decline, because she was loved by fans so she could've gotten back on and been bigger than the both of them but she allowed what they did to paralyze her. Very sad.

Saw her years ago in concert! She was and STILL FANTASTIC!!!! We know SHE is the real QUEEN❤❤❤❤

She has talent, but the industry isn’t about just talent. It’s about ambition at any cost.

"Ruin" ... that woman fronted one of the best album's of all-time. It transcends genres and is considered a timeless classic. What happened to her personal relationships and working relationships is a) her business, and b) happens to tons of young artists. Ms. Hill is an extremely intelligent, multi-talented human being who does what she chooses. If she wanted to record more, for the world to hear, it would happen. Especially in today's environment. Musicians record and publish their own work ALL the time. This video is informative to those that don't know anything about her story- but, it is definitely sensationalized and not dropping anything not already well-known to those who have paid attention.

Lauryn's MOTHER is to blame for letting a strange man take her daughter.

What's understood doesnt need to be explained. The love for her is unconditional ❤❤❤❤

Lauryn has been through a lot. I remember when people in the Marley family and folks were saying that the only reason she was dating Rohan was because she wanted the Marley’s last name so that she can be bigger. The music industry is very toxic. Lauryn you are still a queen. People are flaky as hell.

No one can ever ruin her career; she’s the best to do it!

Lauryns problem is like a lot of women. We let a man dick-tate our lives. You ain’t mention Rohan was already married. She knew this and kept having children with him anyway. She took on that Rasta lifestyle of men having multiple women. She was so I hyped over having children with a legends son. It seems she was always someone’s second wife. Cause Wyclef got married while they were seeing each other. I mean what an embarrassment. How and why she continued to see him is beyond me.

A little bit of both honestly. Lauryn didn't need those songs. All she had to do was sing ANYTHING & she could have solidified her spot

I went to see her once. Waited for an hour and a half and she still hadn't arrived. Drugs were being passed around openly. Very uncomfortable experience. My husband and I left. She is extremely talented but she doesn't value people's time. It took us two hours to get to the spot. Waited an hour and a half for nothing, no chairs, and drugs every where..... I hope what ever her challenges are, she can get them straightened out.

Cancelling studio sessions repeatedly and appearances can ruin anyone's career. But I get it, when you are tired and need a break, you have to allow yourself to breathe. I love Lauryn Hill's music

So sad because she is so talented . For those that did her wrong Karma will come for you

Lauryn was bigger than the group so it’s not the group why her career is what it is. Her business practices are the reason why she isn’t a more accomplished musician. I believe that Miseducation was such a runaway hit and the business side with her collaborators was terrible. From being sued she likely felt humiliated in the most public way and couldn’t live it down. That album was promoted as her being heavily involved and written by her to then be sued publicly was an ego hit. Even her requesting the next set of musicians to sign away their rights to the sophomore album that never happened showed that she was on track to do a similar thing with better business practices (not write or produce but claim it). Then just having a lot of kids back to back and likely having mental illness unaddressed are the real reasons why she is in the career position she’s in now.

A true artist never loses his or her gift. Lauryn still has it. I love her. ❤❤

Lauryn Hill is a natural beauty. I am glad that she did not bend to pressure in the industry, kept her principles in check.

Sometimes it’s best to quit while you’re ahead. It’s not like she has ever put out any trash. As long as she is happy.

love your energy and perspective misstee! thank you for giving us quality content!!

I've heard so much about Lauren Hill and about her career. I listened to her music and love it! There was a time where people were trying to turn fans like me against her and I couldn't do. Anyways this is long ago history. I hope to see Lauren Hill perform again. We've already weathered that storm. Much Love ❤ High vibes over here!😊

They need to stop saying she is one of the "top female rappers" because she is one of the "top rappers" PERIOD!!! And don't let her start singing. Real lyrics, real purpose! May The Most High bless the sweet Lauryn Hill!

From the way the story was told while it was happening, Lauryn didn't want Clef to work on her album. Clef was running round telling people he was about to work on her album. At the time he was the production genius of the group, and it was just always assumed that he would produce Lauryn. I remember he did the "Sweetest Thing" for Love Jones with her. She grew to resent Clef for not leaving his wife, and so she cut him off. The need to prove to people that she could do this on her own is prob why she didn't give proper credit on the Miseducation album. Lauryn really had Clef believing he was about to be a dad. I remember he did performance and an interview at one of the late shows to promote his solo album and he was so happy and said he was about to go to the hospital to visit Lauryn. That was the first time I felt strongly that they had some type of relationship, because he really was happy like it was his child. In his book he said that Lauryn led him to believe that she was carrying his child. Although he was married and Lauryn was seeing Rohan, they were still getting together. The way he explains it is that he loved 2 women, but his love for Lauryn ended when he felt he lied to him about being the dad only to pull the rug out from under him at the hospital. They were still sleeping together when he started a relationship with Rohan.

It’s disappointing to hear how Wyclef groomed her. And also disappointing that Lauryn hasn’t taken any responsibility for her mistakes. I’m sure it is a very complicated issue, but how she gonna blame others for being late and unprofessional? And hasn’t blamed the cult leader, cuz he groomed her as well in a spiritual way.

Saw her perform and spoke to her briefly (we even took a selfie🤳 😊), four years ago. Outstanding artist and beautifully down to earth sista! 💕

As an adult you can’t keep blaming other people. You make your choices so be happy with them. As child everyone is susceptible to the choices being made for them but you get through it. Be accountable for the decisions you make.

If she was still in the game Rap would be different in a good way women definitely wouldn't be selling sex it would be respect knowledge and big growth they need to give sis her damn flowers I love Lauren Hill and everything sis brought to the table❤

This is what happens when you send children into the entertainment industry. Her people should have raised her normally until she was at least eighteen and then let her choose between college and a music career instead of sending her like a sheep amidst the wolves at age 12. Smh.

She is so gifted. I agree that Miseducation is one of the greatest albums of all time, period. It’s clear if you do a little research that Lauren could have created and accomplished a lot more, but did not because of music industry toxicity, dirty selfish people that took advantage of her, and ultimately mental health. It’s sad, but I love everything she has shared with us and hope better days lie ahead for her.

SHE’S A REAL ONE AND I STILL LOVE HER MUSIC SHE’S DEFINITELY A LEGEND ONE OF THE BEST TO EVER DO IT ❤

Miseducation of Lauryn hill is one of the best albums ever!!!! ..and will forever. Love her

Ya'll have to remember she was only a child when she started in the industry. There was nothing she knew about the industry when she started out other than sing and rap.

When I had to get my life together, when I needed to weed out the good ppl and the bad, when I had to lose it all and start all over, when I had to heal...I disappeared for a year and came back a new and improved me. Do what you have to do for you! And her career is never over♊️👑

Lauren Hill did a collab on Nas King Disease II album. The track name was “Nobody”. Her lines are REALLY revealing as to how she felt about what happened…not necessarily name dropping, because she didn’t, but she used many “theys” when describing her story.

Why are you posting pics of Ryan Destiny, Anthony Hamilton, and Isaiah Thomas in this story?

I just love her music God bless her 🙏🏼😇🙏🏼

We love Lauryn, she gave us some of the best songs, movie and inspiration above all. No, she fell in love, she had control issues with her former bandmates, she made changes in her life that did impair her ability to sustain a viable career in the music and entertainment industry. Being late and under performing, yes that is an issue. All I know is that we do not really know the full story. She tried to break free and she ended up broke and broken. She has that soul and soul in her voice, she will continue singing and I pray she finds an outlet that allows her to perform and remain comfortable in her principles. Because, if she met God, that is the most important. We can continue listening to her existing music and go to smaller venues concerts and appreciate her. One thing, "The miseducation of Lauryn Hill" remains one of the best album ever. No matter what the "experts" said.

Lauryn Hill didn't disappear after her first album because she followed it up with the masterpiece "MTV Unplugged No. 2.0" with only her acoustic guitar. Don't forget "Guarding the Gates" from the "Queen & Slim" soundtrack.

Look what she was around. The director of the video "killing me softly " was sent to 90 years of prison for SA hia daughter and fathering 5 of her children. Wycler openly admitted his attraction. Dude had his head down embarrassed, Lauryn laughed out of discomfort

No other rapper ever could sing and rap as excellent as she did at her peak. Missy is a close second, Nicki is third. Cardi’s singing was ok in la modelo, so I’ll put her 4th lol. Lil Kim’s singing sounds like when you discovered you could record your voice in audio or video for the first time as a kid, and you start singing away lol.

She was on time for the show I went to. She gave what she needed to give. I enjoyed it very much.

Ayooo this quick accent while reading Rohans statement tho! 😂😂😂😂

Lauryn will always be one of the best I know. She different and she deep with knowledge of what she speaks so she will always be the best. God bless her and I truly pray she overcome whatever have happen to her over the years in she come back with a testimony 🙏🏾💪🏾❤️‍🔥💯💯.

She didn't get married because Marley's son was married already.

I Don’t understand why Wyclef felt betrayed but he had a whole entire wife. And Lauren needs to take responsibility for her actions. At some point, you’re no longer a child.

The production team on the Mis-education of Lauryn Hill was called NEW-ARK PRODUCTIONS, Like from the city of Newark. This story has a lot of missing pieces but there is a documentary in the works that clears up all the rumors.

I mean, it sounds like she's majorly traumatized and it just messed her up for life. Like she can't even live a normal life because her mind isn't right.

Honestly, she was her own demise. It’s sad…

She’s a Queen, whatever she’s done she was compelled to do and it’s not for me to question.

Lauryn will always be loved, either you stand for something or fall for anything! The respect people have for Lauryn speaks volumes!

She is talented, amazing and very beautiful. When I teen I was so jealous of her beautiful skintone since I couldn't get it.

With all that seems to have went wrong..LAURYN HILL ..STILL LEAVES A VERY POSITVE BEAUTIFUL MARK OF ARTISTRY. ⭐

She wanted that Marley dude above everything else. Period. That dude really broke her spirit and basically her energy to create music.

At the beginning at 0:08 secs that was Ryan Destiny not Lauryn Hill

Why do people say Rohan was her husband⁉️ This man had a wholeass wife 😮 and never divorced her and after she had all those babies he left her and went back to his wife🤬 Wyclef was married during the alleged affair 😳. So as far as her ruined career it was a little of both she was partially responsible for herself. Now older supposedly wiser showing up late and being hard to work with is on her not the industry 🤷🏿‍♀️🤔

These things do happen unfortunately. No just in music but also other careers too.

Ms Hill has been through some trials. She deserves her flowers for that. But part of her stigma as an artists is her own undoing. She can't blame Wyclef, Pras, or anyone else for her lack of professionalism. Her habit of being grossly late for concerts in deadass wrong.

She was depressed and maybe even disorganized. The industry we should know by now is shady. And he didn't protect her since he was trying to get with her from day 1. When she nolonger served his needs, he let her fend for herself. Her ex also cheated and since she was apart of cheating before she was married with someone married, she simply reap what she sowed.

She did the right thing leaving the industry before more crazy crap start to happen like you hear about others in and out of court ,getting charge with crazy mess ...#❤ GOD'S BEST TO LAURYN HILL

her career cant never be ruined......she a legend

She is one of the best MCs ever and one of the best singers as well and she was deeper than most and one of the first to go diamond in hip hop

Lauryn had no business messing with married men and there’s no excuse for that. Also Wyclef and Rohan were also wrong for taking advantage of her.

It's happened to so many artists, it's always the same loop. Pretty obvious that some shit goes on in the music industry and the artists that don't go along with the program get ruined.

NIIICE ❤! I was blessed to see Fugees in the beginning, decades later it’s still sad to know that Lauren was preyed upon & nothing happened! Also given the group’s age, inexperience, uncertainty’s & severe lack of knowledge & support, things were bound to happen. I honestly think Lauren’s devastating traumatic experiences still has a major grip on her & thus is why she hasn’t been able to fully recommit to her career. Regardless of what, the ❤remains for the GOAT & I pray for her

Thank you for telling you're truth #NARCISSISTICTOXICPEOPLE IS REAL giving me strength to tell mine. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. WHOS KEEPIN SCORE? We've all been #MISeducated .

I just want to see her smile again😢❤

She got with Marley and turned really weird and thatcareer got gone fast.

Often we humans look for who to blame for our failures, it's always someone else but if we focused on ourselves and tried to see where we went wrong we would get back up. The more u blame others the lower u sink

I wish she would come back. I miss true artists

Idk how a married man can feel betrayed about a single woman getting pregnant by her BF

I blame Lauryn mother for letting her daughter leave at that young tender age

Lauryn may have fallen but she will continue to rise.. she is a very unique artist. She is outstanding. People will try but if God is for you, no one can be against you. Keep your focus Lauryn..

She just needs to record independently. The industry is hell.

Lauryn helped ruin her own career. And Robert Glasper said her attitude was nasty. Wyclef definitely preyed on her.

I believe that Wyclef did help ruin her career by not supporting her. He took advantage of a young girl and still had a relationship on the side and got married while still trying to get to her. This sounds so familiar. I was 14 and he was 21 and didn't get away from him until I was 18. The damage that is done carries on in your life. However, at some point you realize what happened and you take responsibility for your future and make the changes that are necessary. Lauryn Hill is a grown women now and had plenty of time to reflect and now it's on her. Wyclef was and probably still is a predator; shame on him.

Lauren Hill could really sing! “ The Miseducation of Lauren Hill”-was by far- one of the best albums ever!

It's satisfying watching this video. The narrator sounds like she's rapping , her words are like water,very fluid delivery. Nice!

Wait how was he betrayed when he went and got married?? Ummm okay!!

Lauryn was missed!

And the fact that she keeps evolving and recreating herself is just amazing.

She had a live MTV inplugged album that was fire.

her career 'didnt go down the drain' 🤯🤦🏽‍♂️

There's enough blame to go around! But, at the same time, as much as I love her, Ms. Hill is extremely intelligent, so she should have done more to protect herself!!!

I remember her from her role on As The World Turns .

Saw Lauryn Hill and The Fugees last year and it was an Incredible experience and an Amazing show. She sang her full solo set and then lead The Fugees with Wycleff and Pras. Her performance was Fantastic along with the rest of The Fugees. It took me back to the 90s and early 2000s for sure. She also brought her son Yg Marley out to showcase his new music ❤️ unforgettable night

Lauryn and Rohan both used each other for their own benefit. She wanted children by a Marley, because she was a fan of their father and Rohan used her for her fame.
