How ‘The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill’ Changed Hip-Hop | Genius News

[@ianhenry6874]

Pretty important in the development of Hip Hop and probably music in general. It's a shame she only dropped one album

[@Ayplus]

MTV Unplugged

[@mrsivyy]

There are a lot of artists who drop just one record but they somehow change music history, Lauryn is the perfect example, legend

[@economixxxx]

The term is called "one hit wonder"

[@Pauulee]

If she has released only one album, how can you claim that she is a one hit wonder? As far as I know you need to release several other albums/songs whatever in order to distinguish between a successful one and none :D

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is literally the album that inspired me to follow my dream creating music for a living. It's first album I ever bought (both digitally AND on CD), and the only album I have listened to from BEGINNING to END and never get tired of it. I've personally never felt that much of a connection to any artist or entertainer EVER, and I've never understood how or why people cry over celebrities (people they don't even know or have any real life connection to), but now I do. Ms. Lauryn Hill's legacy will forever be remembered and she will always have a place in my heart💯🙏❤❤❤

[@pietropiva1376]

@Michaell Alexander There is no such thing as "real hip-hop". Trap is another subgenre of hip-hop, just like gangsta rap, conscious rap and what have you. Classifying between "real" and "fake" music is hurting even more the genre rather than helping it

This album really changed the way I view nd listen to music in many ways. Such a masterpiece of an album. Definitely in my top 15 albums of all time for now only cuz I have so much more music to listen to, so it could end up in my top 10 albums oat eventually. I wish Lauryn had released more albums, but at least she ended off her music run in the best way possible nd her music is still being sampled very often.

[@djkirkdigglerusn5476]

People are so quick to call nicki and cardi the queens of rap music. The miseducation is worth all their albums combined and more. the lyrics tell a story about the pain and hardships of life and is so relatable. I still listen to lauryns ablum bc its timeless and speaks a lot of truth. Sad that music has changed so much in such little time

[@chelseamontano4710]

Cardi b can and would never be the queen of anything when she don’t write but nicki Minaj is in a lane of her own she has a huge catalog and actually writes her rap not sure that your into her but nicki actually raps and switches her flow and actually wrote about different situations just u have to listen to her but cardi b just isn’t talented can’t even compare !!
