Lauryn Hill Finally Exposes Who Ruined Her Career

Lauryn Hill Finally Exposes Who Ruined Her Career
Lauryn Hill’s disappearance from Hollywood has always been one of the biggest mysteries in Hollywood. People have always wondered why she dipped after dropping one of the greatest rap albums ever, and she is finally telling her side of the story. Brace yourselves, y’all, because this is NOT pretty. Uhh… did she really get groomed by Wyclef Jean?

[@unchainedgirl4447]

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.

Agreed. She went to Brown University, the lady is smarter than most and can do whatever she wants. This article is going off an exes story and the industry stuff is well known. Edit: correction: she had been accepted to Columbia University. She did not attend Brown. Having said that, the message remains the same: she is very, very intelligent. You don't get accepted into a prestigious Ivy League school without being very smart... or generationally wealthy. She has chosen to focus on bigger things than a music career: family, and civil rights/humanitarian work.

"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.

[@iaminevitable_]

While I agree that the mom shouldn’t just immediately trust someone with their child, the blame ultimately falls on the person doing the misconduct. It’s like blaming the parents if the teacher does something inappropriate with your kid (their student)… they are with them 8hours a day and for the most part, they aren’t going to conduct themselves in a way that would get them fired/arrested because the accountability falls on that teacher and that teacher is quite aware of their responsibility. One thing that confuses me to no end is why can’t adults be around kids/minors and not harm them? Especially men… it’s like maybe men should know how to conduct themselves around kids/minors..

[@nancymarunya7121]

@@iaminevitable_ but this is not a teacher and a student situation. The mom should not have BASICALLY given her underage daughter away to a strange man, that's not even family. Even as an adult Lauryn is always looking for saviours in these men. Clearly she has some type of abandonment issues and the fact that she hardly ever mentions her mother/family is VERY TELLING!

True facts!!!

[@NeishaNineStarz]

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.

@@vanhattfield8292 You must be American. A child should be given the opportunity to have a somewhat normal childhood where he or she is being raised and trained by suitable parents or guardians. To put children in adult situations too early creates a breeding ground for dysfunction and parent child role reversal. Parents should provide for and raise their children. Not vice versa. Also there is nothing wrong with entertainment being restricted to adults. Children can act in school plays or church plays. They do not need to take on entertainment as a profession at an age where they do not know up from down.

[@faithjordan4825]

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.

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

[@vkc670]

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

[@kujichaguliaself-determina7388]

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.

[@clementine4133]

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.

[@DarkandlovelyLovely]

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.

[@annjean8709]

Agreed!

[@finurra3905]

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.

[@JustNinaJustLiving]

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

[@crystalscolza1663]

She ruined her career for me, when she stood up at the music awards and said I would rather be broke than have another white person buy my album.... Ok lady, you got it. I loved ready or not and a few other songs they had but I won't support someone who hates me for no reason.

[@hyperiondragon]

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.

[@Second_Son1990]

Lil Kim lmfao 😂😂😂

[@jusdria4132]

Ouch on the lil Kim 😂

[@sillau9]

Cardi can't sing for shii..she shouldn't even be mentioned..kinda Nicki too..only ones is Lauren & Missy could actually sing & rap

[@ch33zybreadtrellie4]

U think missy can sing???

[@hyperiondragon]

@@ch33zybreadtrellie4 Absolutely. She was a singer before she was a Rapper, Dancer, Songwriter, and Producer. She sang in church and was also in an R&B girl group.

[@kimberlyharvell1339]

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

[@toosweet1327]

😂I kept saying that didn't look like Lauryn

[@sharon-lt9yi]

I know right that's what I said

[@mandybae2524]

this whole thing was a mess, not credible

[@Tasha-ps3tp]

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

[@tamarascott126]

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

[@sabrinajohnson9078]

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

[@simplylovie9015]

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

[@ogkiloofo.c.m924]

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.

[@Mommyoftwooak]

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

[@folddpd1]

Explain?

[@fromheaventoearth5779]

Wyclef is a creep. But that doesnt make Lauryn automatically a nice person.

[@catsrus-es9eu]

That marley son that she foolishly ran off with to Jamaica with.

[@ichoosetoloveagainandagain8760]

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

[@msdeethehoneybeewilson4681]

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

[@leighlavigne5482]

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

[@mercuryman1250]

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

[@Blaquegoddess13queenstyle]

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 🤷🏿‍♀️🤔

[@MT-tn8em]

FACTS

[@MrOvadose101]

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.

[@ZeLuJ]

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

[@teeb2681]

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.

[@tabbiejsvoice4148]

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

[@cecileogezi8444]

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

[@mechelle1]

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

[@PlasticCogLiquid]

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.

[@r.g.murray3945]

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.

[@avgolden1974]

Preach

[@dfree1442]

Troll much. Smh

[@Amani-kr5cw]

Haitian men are predators my child's father is 20 years older than me which is nuts but I agree about what u sed about taking responsibility

[@brownin329]

It's never the predator's fault, huh?

[@vomitingconfetti7187]

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

[@bskillshare808]

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..

[@starb73]

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

[@uprise4822]

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

[@2_blAck]

Yep…. And Lauren comes from a dingbat of a mom. Which is why it was easy to manipulate her🤦🏽‍♀️ Now it all makes since, she’s dingy

[@Moore-Ent]

This “Anthony” person in your video is Isiah Thomas of the Detroit Pistons 😂

[@MontyMatata]

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

[@newme1813]

I just want to see her smile again😢❤

[@tiaramonee8382]

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

[@Nianeeki]

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

[@ladysol101]

I was a friend of both Lauryn & Wyclef in the 90's, sadly she fell in love with the wrong ones. That's all I got until my memoir in progress is released.

[@DarkandlovelyLovely]

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.

[@theodorebradshaw9352]

This is the best I've heard in several moons😂😢😅😮😢

[@coffeeeloverfree4100]

Lauryn Hill is fire. She is such a powerful singer and writer! Praying for her this magnificent Jersey Queen is supreme! Her Miseducation album is genius! I thoroughly enjoyed her when I saw her in Richmond Virginia …I believe in 2015! Keep negatively out and pray for people instead, none of us are perfect

[@fettifam973]

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

[@racheal8871]

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

[@Brian-gh7fj]

I feel like the Tyra Banks meme when it comes to Lauryn Hill. HOW DARE YOU! We were ALL rooting for you! It was kind of sad being a genuine fan and watching the stall and eventually demise of her career. The L Boogie we have now is just a shell of her former self. The Miseducation album is a classic! So are a few of the Fugees records. Yeah the industry is evil, and there may have been a few are negative factors behind the scenes that may have held her back temporarily. But she had established a fan base for herself that would have rode for her (no matter what) if she really wanted to continue to put out music. She just kept stringing us along for years of delays pretending that she would release something soon. Canceling shows at last minute or being hours late. The noticeable loss of much of her tone and the power in that unique voice live. Lack luster performances where it appeared that she didn’t even want to be there. Her public Tax/Legal troubles. She offered something that the music industry really needed that I don’t think we are ever getting back. She is way too far gone at this point. Oh well, atleast I’ll still got those 90s hit I can continue to rock.

[@realmomsdontclockout]

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 .

[@seanclean1625]

To me, her career was never ruined!! The Country is still waiting for a huge project from Lauryn. If she can pull it together, she can do anything! Her Only solo album, is legendary, epic, and black music history!!

[@onetake_sun6915]

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!!!

[@ohanaohana8844]

She was only 14 years old! Childhood trauma is a beast many can't escape.

[@caramel2l]

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