Lauryn Hill Interview - ROD Show, Season 3 Episode 76, 1999

Our interview with the wonderful Lauryn Hill on the seventy-sixth episode of the third season of The Rosie O'Donnell Show.

[@oceanwoods]

One of the greatest albums of all time

[@chrisjacobsen5558]

💯

[@Mr.Magic4ever]

Truly! 💯

[@AnAdorableWombat1]

Yep!!! Bar none

[@AngelHoll]

Agreed lauryn hill is great but no other female r&b artist beats mary she's the queen of r&b!!!

[@jayredz7807]

This aged well

[@lehmanxo]

The album is still incomparable to any other modern soul hip hop record. They made a masterpiece

[@adrina911]

Her album was ovah, I loved her clothes and I missed this Lauryn. 😔😔😔😔😔

[@POObumpoopo]

WOW - the little acapella she did of Zion, just off the cuff. There will never be another Lauryn. She just radiates talent & beauty. And these clips are a reminder of how sweet Rosie was to her guests and how comfortable they felt on her show. The current lineup of talk shows is very fake, with viral games / moments and pre-planned questions and answers. This feels so genuine.

[@erikm8372]

Love her. I can’t believe how young she was and such a talent and lyrical BEAST. Every word has significance and meaning behind it. More than stuff like, “I got money in the bank, shorty what ya drank,” and no offense to that artist, but you feel me… lack of lyrical depth these days. And that’s fine! Y’all do y’all! But the roots of hip hop are social commentary and resistance, and just commentary on life in general. Lauryn, and the Fugees too, all icons.

[@erikm8372]

I love how Rosie brought up “Zion” and was so choked up and moved by it. She’s such a real interviewer, host, and fan of everyone she’s had in the show. Maybe not? I dunno, but it sure seemed like her guests were all very well received by her and vice versa.

[@belladonna5904]

Right? So to find out she didn't even write the album and stole the credits of the artists responsible blew my mind.

[@armandoucles5346]

25 years later, Lauryn Hill's iconic solo album "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" is one of the greatest albums of all time. She can sing and rap better than most artists today.

[@MrELUNA80]

I miss interviews like this.

[@igor4217]

Rosie can we please get the interview with the great late Aaliyah? ♥️

[@imalwaysright]

Those were some of the best performances I've seen of any artist, and we were treated to not one but two . What a voice. Not only as a singer, but as a rapper. Not many - male or female - possess the rap skills she shows here. Incredible. Thanks Rosie.

[@jeanninebilland5708]

I remember my son gave me this album for my Christmas present

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

The thin̈g that made rosie the best talk show host for me was how she was genuinely a fan of people she was interviewing & was interested in having a conversation. Also, never intercept when the interviewees speak, unlike many of them do.

[@shviewjames126]

Happy 25th Anniversary Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.

[@CollinKelley]

That album is a masterpiece.

[@merrilll]

I remember this interview so so clearly still. Was so great to watch it again. All these years later, it's still one of the most remarkable albums ever.

[@pam0626]

Hearing this song takes me back to the fall of 1998 when I started dating my now-husband. 🎈😊

[@DavidRichardson95]

Rosie had to drop this cause y'know _Miseducation_ turns 25 on Friday. This was right before she cleaned up at the Grammys taking home 5 including one for Album of the Year. L Boogie is still _that_ girl. Period.

[@jimmyboyzable]

OMG, I've loved her since I first saw her in "Sister Act 2". "That Thing (Doo-Wop)" & "Everything is Everything" are my all-time favorite tracks from her "Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" album. I wish she'd came out with more albums or make a come back today cause we need more music artists like HER, she is TOO talented 🌹

[@doreencellner55]

SUCH a brilliant talent, my goodness. 💖🔥🎶

[@bethanycook8430]

Rosie was a huge fan!!

[@egalitarian-rex]

I Love Lauryn Hill, it’s a real shame we heard so little from her after this ironically titled album. Her talent was incredible, but the poor character of the men in her life changed her direction.

[@jeffbrown4256]

Killer performance with a full band❤❤❤

[@sharon_l_0805]

Lauryn is lovely.

[@radiodisneysuperfan2601]

Please upload your interview with LeVar Burton!

[@quanie.]

Rosie! Thank you for sharing.

[@phoenixplanet7090]

Thank you 🙏🏾 Rosie ❤

[@MichelKulmann]

I love "Everything is Everything". Still remember when I first watched it on MTV back in the day and had it recorded on VHS. Those were good days in music.

[@jbt6007]

Fame was not kind to Lauryn. I wish her the best.

[@CaapriceTube1]

I was 9 years old when Miseducation dropped. Lauryn was probably THEE biggest musical influence on me, after Tupac. The 90s was just incomparable.

[@austinleodecker]

Happy 25th Anniversary to The MisEducation Of Lauryn Hill!!!!

[@radasez]

People need to understand that no one wrote her lyrics to the songs. When they say she didn’t write they are talking about the actual music and instrumentation. She is still brilliant. She may have mentioned some sounds she wanted or the musician played something and she approved that sound the musician created.

[@sarahfortune7760]

Amen to that. Can't believe people still get confused by that

[@jeanninebilland5708]

Rosie had the best show of all time!!Presented the most amazing artist💜

[@Andersonsantos__]

THE GREATEST álbum of ALL time

[@lehmanxo]

It really is a tapestry

[@fredericom875]

Amazing!!!!

[@gerrellewilson9228]

You got to love black music. Every genre of music came from us, don't forget it.

[@lehmanxo]

25 years

[@Ninai5z]

and girls is so modest. the perfect human example of music and fame while serving the Lord. amen sis!

[@Ninai5z]

why does the middle girl almost look like gen z zendaya?

[@shaydan1698]

Such a good interview! I miss television like this

[@jamesgunz5970]

So this interview was from January 8 I never knew who Lauren was and this is the first interview I saw of her just now in January 8 2024! My point is that the music gods sent me here to learn of legend 📚

[@sister2si]

Wow Lauryn is always so amazing!!!!!

[@Ninai5z]

amen for zion! happy mothers day all!

[@igorsokolov7058]

Lauryn Hill was just a perfection . Still can't believe she is an artist of one album only . she was so promising ((

[@RellupNorth]

She has two solo albums plus the fugees

[@igorsokolov7058]

Unplugged is not studio solo album , it’s just live album which record label pushed her to make due to her contract.

[@firouz256]

The background singer on the right looks like a young Kelly price!!!!!!!

[@dorianprice1841]

It's her

[@mokorangi6380]

It’s not, that’s Lenesha Randolph Kelly Price was an established artist the same time Lauryn came about in 98/99

[@dianewilson7619]

[@sophiapde9369]

[@Ninai5z]
